after replacing react-native-geolocation-service, we started getting the timeout error.
I found out that
Community package uses LocationManager.requestLocationUpdates(...) flow via your native modules while geolocation-service using Fused Location Provider.
Fused location provider works faster for following reasons
1- Fuses GPS, Wi-Fi, cell-tower, and sensors to get a “good enough” fix almost instantly.
2- Returns the last known location immediately and only then tries to get a fresh reading.
3- Lets you configure a single high-accuracy request (and tear it down) instead of spinning up a continuous listener.
I applied a patch within community package to use same provider.
