Waze GPS issues

[TaranQ]

It seems like the problems have disappeared overnight. I switched advanced battery optimisation off and Waze acts fine as it did before.
Very curious though how they fixed it, without any physical update (did they push something in the background?)
Anyway thanks to the coder who gave up his sleep last night to fix this

Sorry, but enabling advanced optimization is unacceptable. You will limit the background activity of other apps as well.
Waze and 1+ need to come up with a solution that does not require such an impact on other apps. But this is just my opinion

I realised that this fix could break naotifications but fact is that I haven't come across any yesterday, all notifications came in as usual

that worked for me, but the programmer in me is super confused why. nothing about this makes sense

Here too, very strange situation and curious about what caused this and how they fixed it, guess we'll never know

I've always had the advanced mode enabled and most notifications are incoming as usual with no delay (WhatsApp, Telegram, Gmail, Google, Calendar, Amazon, bank apps, etc.). BTW, there are certain apps like Just-Eat, Wallapop, Pictionary, etc. that have their notifications delayed or not always working, but for me that's not a problem as they're not important at all.

Update isn't the problem. I have the problem without update. I have 5.1.9 version.

Interesting, did you have significant better battery life?

Yesterday for example it was 4h30m SOT with 3h30m playing PUBG (all graphic settings at max) + 30m of Waze + 30m between WhatsApp, Gmail and so. Usually I get like 7/8h if I don't play, depends on the GPS, 4G, etc. use too.

I'm on 5.1.11 + xXx 2.8 + FrancoKernel r5.

I updated to 5.1.5 and the problem was still there but they seem to have fixed it now. Waze is working perfectly.

I was still having issues until today (on 5.1.11, all stock). I rebooted and everything works great now! Waze app and within Android auto. If you're still having issues, try rebooting!

Rebooting or updating Waze fixes the problem - but for me, the problem still and has always persisted after the second time I open it again after closing or sending the app to the background.

Work around for Oneplus 6 Waze issue

I've found that if you start waze on your device before connecting the USB, enter your location and then connect to car, it starts to work fine. May help until the bug fix is pushed.

Does anyone know if the problem has been fixed? my wife still has the same problem. Waze works just fine but when connected to anrdoid auto it doesn't fix the gps.
