/e/ OS 0.13-2020120989402 update killed GPS function on LG-H850

  • /e/ version: 0.13-2020120989402
  • Device model(s): LG-H850

Summary

I update /e/ on my LG-H850 to 0.13-2020120989402 and it broke the GPS and location determination. Magic maps, Waze, Weather and GPStest cannot determine GPS position. Everything under the GPS settings is ON (high accuracy, or I can switch to other settings), but the GPS is not working on any app. I checked permissions and location is ON under the permissions for all the apps I enabled it.

The problem

Steps to reproduce

Update to 0.13

What is the current behavior?

Location is ON, but no position is available for any app.

What is the expected correct behavior?

Location is ON and the position is available for apps.
