No GPS on DROID Charge After Update (ED2)

Question

I've had my DROID Charge for over two weeks now.  I won it in the DROID Landing scavenger hunt.  The GPS has been on par with other Samsung Galaxy S phones.  It's slow to lock, but it works well after it does.
After the device came out, Verizon pushed an update (ED2).  According to the documentation I've read, it only affected Samsung Media Hub.  I'm not really a Media Hub user, so I wasn't going to be affected by the 'downgrade' in functionality.
However, since the update, my GPS no longer locks.  I can be standing outside, clear skys, and I'm only ever shown at the cell tower level on Google Maps; A big blude circle, near my location.  It never hones in closer than that.
I've tried rebooting the phone, clearing the GPS Cache (with the GPS Status app http://j.mp/iijkwk), and redownloading the aGPS data, with the same app.
One time today, while walking to the coffee shop, my GPS locked on.  Other than that, nothing.
Has anyone else seen this issue?  Any more suggestions to fix, or at least put a band-aid on it?
Thanks
Breon

I understand your frustration because Vz Navigator is a great feature that many users depend on when traveling. Since you have cleared the Cache, rebooted, and you've downloaded the app again, I would try a few other steps. Ensure the Gps location is on and the Location Based services have the proper settings. You can use the directions below:
GPS steps:
From the home screen, select Applications.
Select Settings.
Select Location & security.
Select Standalone GPS services.
Enabled when a orange check mark is present.
If presented, review the disclaimer then select Agree.
 Location Based Services instructions:
Navigate to the http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/index.html website, enter the 10-digit mobile number and password then click Sign In.
To register, click Register then follow the step-by-step instructions.
Click My Service > Navigator.
Click Manage Online.
Click Settings (upper-right corner, above the map).
Click Privacy Settings (under End User License and Privacy Settings).
Select a privacy setting then click Save.
Click OK.
