I seem to remember having a similar problem. Does your Map app display the Users current location at any point?
If yes, try calling MyLocationOverlay.enableMyLocation() to start updates in your MapView's onResume() and MyLocationOverlay.disableMyLocation() to stop in the onPause() and see if your GPS problem goes away.
