First make sure the phone has a good view of the sky. It takes a bit longer on Blackberry to get the first GPS fix. So take the phone outdoors and wait a bit longer (30 minutes).
On Blackberry, the GPS permission is controlled by phone options. From the phone idle screen, go to "Options" > "Location Based Services" > "Privacy Setting" and change that to "Unrestricted".
You might also want to check the per-application based permission:
"Options" > "Advanced Options" > "Applications" > "AccuTracking" > "Edit Permissions", then make sure "Connections" > "Location (GPS)" is set to "Allow", and "User Data" is set to "Allow" too.
