Description

This location (I use GSM location service) is with newer GmsCore delayed. I SatStat I have to wait for 30s until I see the rough estimated blue location.
This keeps blue for 5 seconds, and becomes grey after that.
Again there is 30s to wait until position is valid and blue again.

That behavior is not like that in 0.2.10.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the GSM location behavior in SatStat with the newer GmsCore and compare it with version 0.2.10. The issue mentions a 30-second delay, 5-second valid period, and repeated 30-second wait; done means the location timing behaves as it did in 0.2.10.
