VZW GPS Unlock Issue

Performed the steps on 2 phones worked great, had to send mine back, performed them on the refurb they sent me, can't get a lock at all. Only difference is I'm using mighty's 6.5 flash instead of the 4.16. Is there an issue with Mobile 6.5 and the gps tool / google maps.

I don't pay for Verizon Navigator so I can't test the gps with that. When I open port with HTC GPS Tool I get

$GPGLL,,,,,,A*11
$GPGSA,A,1,,,,,,,,,,,,50.00,50.00,50.00*35
$GPGSV,1,1,00*79

It does that constantly.

Starting a test or not I can't get any satellite used or satellite fixed. Google maps can't lock either.

Any ideas? What should GPS tool be saying in the scrolling text.

This is really frustrating 1, b/c they sent me a refurb and not a new one, and 2 because I have no way to test the GPS since I don't pay for their navigator, so I have no way of convincing them it's broken. (If that is the case)
