Anytime I go to use my GPS: in Navigation app, Bump, Google Maps etc. I get the GPS icon in the Notification bar. However the GPS never locks on to anything. Do I need to make any changes because I am using a Verizon phone (maybe I have a different GPS chipset)?

Ok, so it does turn on that's a good sign. Quite often it locks me somewhere off the coast of Ghana (I think it's 0 deg lat/long...) and if I wait a sec it gets my actual location.
Do you have/use QuickGPS in WinMo? I've found that if you update QuickGPS in WinMo at least every 7 days (the more often the better) that locks in Android are MUCH quicker.
Plus, I also found I need to verify I have a good lock on my actual location with Google Maps before going to the Navi app.
