Location service stays on consistently after one ui 7 update

[gopicharan]

After the OneUI 7 update, location services stays on consistently. Especially the below services constantly keeps requesting location

Tried, uninstalling and reinstalling Google Play Services. But once I turn on Location Accuracy, the Location request is back on consistently.

Update: The only thing that resolved this issue was a factory reset.

I'm having the same issue with One UI 7 on an S24, with battery drain as well. I hope I wasn't going nuts.

Since I upgraded my S24 Ultra to One UI 7, I have the permanently active GPS icon on the status bar. This is very annoying. I had to turn off the GPS and turn it on again when I'm going to use it. Please fix this!

Yep.

It's a bug from the beta 6 release that Samsung didn't fix before officially releasing it.

Maybe it'll be fixed in next month's security update.

Maybe next not.

Go to settings , apps , google play services. Click on show on google play store. Uninstall. And then add the updates. Should fix it.

Thanks. I tried that and it's better, but the problem definitely continues.

Tried the above fix but still have the issue, this is something Samsung needs to fix. I am on a Z fold 6

I have the same issue with my s23 ultra and have been turning off location unless I've needed the GPS functionality
