In location-requiring apps I use, I very often don't get the GPS indicator or a geolocation fix at all, no matter what I do, and even though I grant the Geolocation access when it asks for permission.

I think it worked after I had re-flashed my otoro freshly a week or two ago, but stopped working after OTA updates.

Unagi and Otoro are out of date.
