Try google maps. It will keep trying even if there is no initial lock. Some other apps might quit too early.

Also, gps can take anywhere from 8sec to 5+min to lock. It just depends on the conditions and whether the assist servers are available.

The GPS assist uses your data connection, so that needs to be working also. You might try running an app to open the data connection first before running an app that uses gps.
