    Blackberry maps won't work in India sagar - they don't have the maps (or the partnership) to show maps in India
    Download Google maps - much better than Blackberry maps and the GPS on your phone works pretty well

    Open this URL on your blackberry browser to download Google Maps

    Google Maps for mobile

    @Vijay, yes it happens when you open your Google Maps. Initially it wud try to search your location using Cell Tower.. GPS works properly only when you are in open sky & moving on the road.. When you do so, you would find that your current location changing from dot to arrow which shows that now you are navigating thru GPS. Also try to refresh your Location Setting from Blackberry Options.
