Just go outside, open the slide, go to tools, run GPS Data, click on positioning then options and Satellite Status. Wait a while. If it shows bars then it found satellites, if the bars go black (3 or more) you have a GPS lock.

Try it out.

Please check under settings that under network is turned to never as usually it try to locate a network first i find that it slows the gps down.

How long do you wait for the bars to go black before you exit the maps application?
