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"

Just answered a couple of posts back. You have to tell Google Maps to use COM 4.
