Re: 12/25/08 Verizon GPS Fix v2.0

I am a newbie with the smartphones.....I just got the touch pro from Verizon yesterday and was excited when I found this thread; but my joy is on hold. I applied the fix (after checking to see that I had the newer PRL). It seemed to go well, and I was able re-program the phone and install the GPS tool. I set all the settings as described, and I can see that I am locking satellites in the GPS tool. Google maps,however, stubbornly refuses to find the GPS. Is there a way to know that the GPS is unlocked so that Google maps can access it? Any other hints - and yes I went to phone->options->more tab->location settings and verified location is on. Google maps just says "Initializing GPS" for a while and then says "no GPS reciever found"
