Incorrect Values on Stat Form

I am using a Droid Charge.  I installed the paid version of Backcountry Navigator on October 05.  I have created a trip file and turned on recording tracks for the Barker Way Trail up to Cowles Mountain.  I know that the elevation that I started from is close to 800 feet, but the stat page reports 41 feet.  The elevation that I ended at is 1,590 feet, but the stat page reported 156 feet.   The distance out and back is approximately 3 miles, but the stat page reported 8.1 miles.  The track as it appears overlayed on the map is correct.  When I reopen the trip file, the track appears on the map, but the stat page is empty.  Are these bugs in the software, or am I doing something incorrectly?  On dedicated GPS units, a calibration is required, but I can find no information on either Backcountry Navigator or the Droid Charge for performing GPS calibration.

  I don't need a reply.  The Droid Charge has a bug related to GPS altitude values.  I am waiting to hear from Samsung if they are going to correct this in a future update.  If not, I'll probably return it for a different droid.
