Mowza please give the exact output of the adb command. And this is an unmodified APK?
GPS location not working with Life360 on Kyocera DuraXV Extreme
Here is the exact output. The APK is unmodified as far as I know. I know I did not modify anything, at least I don't think I did.
Exception occurred while executing:

Mowza I wonder if that permission was only introduced on newer android versions? it seems like the permission isnt even existing on the phone
If it is not a permission that is present I am at a complete loss as to why my device continues to show as offline. According to the status in my devices client it says I am online. I can't imagine its supposed to be this hard to get it to work.

Mowza I honedtly dont know much about life360. Is location services turned on and other apps detect your location?
I abandoned Life360 in favor of Traccar. It's Traccar I am trying to get to work now.

Mowza hmm... do any apps work to get location?

It does indeed sound like some type of permissions issue. Esp if you've ran it in the foreground (w the screen still on & updating every 30 seconds) & it still doesn't show online. Maybe try running an older apk to see what happens?
Also, I'd start experimenting. What happens when you try Zood Location on the tracked device?
Waze seems to work just fine. I have not tried anything else yet besides Life360 , Waze and Traccar.
What permission(s) could be missing?
