After searching here, ppckitchen, and xda, I found that my ROM version (3.08.666.1) did not support GPS. Except I was running a custom WM 6.5 ROM. D'oh!

It turns out that in custom ROMs most developers don't update that number. My problem was that I didn't have the location setting to "on" in the phone settings. D'OH! again.

Anyway, hopefully this helps some soul as foolish as I
I'm in the same boat, I'm running 6.5 and my GPS flat refuses to work. I'm running the same ROM version (3.08.666.1), my radio is 3.42.50.

I've checked the phone settings and the location is set to on.

I've also checked my GPS settings and everything, at least from what I've read, seems to be good

GPS Program Port: COM4
GPS Hardware Port: 0
Manage GPS automatically is checked

When I try to use Google Maps (or any other GPS program), the phone just searches and searches until it gives up.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
