Google Play Services Location

Onyx

I use the Google Play Services sandbox in a work profile for apps that need it and I've never had any problems with Location, but now the location is no longer accurate, always many meters away from the real one. When I use Uber I have to be talking to the driver to explain the right location.

All the necessary options are activated, because, as I said, I have always used it without any problems.

Any help on this?

Is more information available?

For example, is the situation different when using Google's location service versus using the GrapheneOS service? Is it different between the owner profile and a secondary profile? Is it possible to indicate which part of the world this is happening in? Is the location accuracy higher when a GNSS-only app such as GPSTest shows a good satellite lock?

Second to this. Originally (after I purchased the pixel) the location determination wasn't acceptable on 5G connection only. Now, without any apparent reason, using good old stable 4g connection also moves me many metres away from actual location even with access to wifi/bluetooth being also allowed for geolocation to "don't be evil" corp on a secondary profile... Unsure about primary one, as this particular secondary profile is what I use for untrusted or otherwise unwanted stuff. And, as a matter of fact, Graphene build-in location system is much more inaccurate, in my case at least.
