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"

you say getting lock? in the GPS tool are the sats red or green? they are not locked until they are green... So id they are just red it is seeing them but not locked yet, leave it for a few mins and it should lock. I use a Verizon TP and it worked!
