I have a Pixel 8 Pro, which is fine, except the GPS takes a very long time to wake up. It is running GrapheneOS, however.

Mine's pretty quick, using the stock OS. I assume in your case it's doing a cold start with no AGPS assistance? If so, it'll take up to a couple of minutes to acquire a fix.

I have no idea, tbh. I just open Google Maps, and it usually takes a few minutes to get a reading. This used to be on the order of seconds on my old (Android) phone.
