So explane to me how some of you got it to work on your phones or are you seeing your location via cell towers which my phone will do as well? When I use my bluetooth external gps everything falls into place. I get a moving triangle and dot on the bing maps in a matter of seconds....has anyone seen this without an external device??
All the reviews that I read and watched before I bought the phone said the gps is unlocked. Part of the reason I decided to get the phone.

And it definitely works with Google Maps. I can get as many as 12 satellites at times. It'll even show which lane I'm on on the highway.
