[Bug]: Capacitor Geolocation 7 acting different to Geolocation 6

[paulgaia]

Capacitor Version

We have an app that specialises in location accuracy. We were testing our new release on android in airplane mode and noticed that geolocation spits out an error if the plugin is v7 but works fine if its v6. We tested exact same environment but just changed the plugin version (and obviously capacitor/core and ionic versions).

In geolocation v7, this is the error that is spit out when in airplane mode:

ERROR CapacitorException: Location settings error. at returnResult (<anonymous>:947:32) at win.androidBridge.onmessage (<anonymous>:922:21)

We will probably have to stay on V6 for now which is annoying because we now need to figure out a solution for the edge to edge issue which was easily solved with capawesome's edge to edge plugin but its only compatible with v7

Try using version 7.0.0 of the plugin.
The plugin was totally rewritten in 7.1.0, so if the problem is not present in 7.0.0 but it's present in 7.1.x, please, report the issue on the plugin repository

Thanks, yes v7.0.0 works
