This is re-opening #897 (closed), which was re-opening #445 (closed)
- /e/ version: 0.14.2021013099019 (every update since 2019 was installed, and I will keep rolling)
- Device model: LG G5 H850
- When it started to occur: since first install mid 2019
- Reproducible with the last /e/ version: yes
- Reproducible with LineageOS: not tested
Summary
GPS does not work.
This affects all GPS-related apps, making offline navigation completely unusable.
The problem
Device can not find its position using GPS. As suggested in #445 (closed) I got and started the GPStest app, and it could successfully list various satellites and their relative position angles. Still, applications using the location service can not find their own position by GPS. When allowing "fine graded" positions, position can be detected to accuracy of radio cells/registered networks when logged into wifi.
Steps to reproduce
Just get a LG G5 H850 running /e/ and any location-aware app. If further information is required, I'll be glad to help.
For some ADB log, please see #897 (closed) (I was too slow to keep it alive and was told to re-open it as new issue).
