GPS is not a super strong signal anyway, I have seen it lose lock, or fail to acquire, in well shielded locations like metal buildings or even in heavy forest with little view of the sky.
Note in your code above, line 7: signals : no
Thanks wi_badger, I'll give it another try outside over a longer period. It's good to hear that it's working for someone else, so maybe the problem is just on my end.
Note the NMEA output in my original post though. The output looks like it is corrupted compared to the sample in the mmcli manual page on the wikipedia, which shows that there are supposed to be values like "$GPGGA,092750.000,5321.6802,N,...". There is no gps raw section at all.
Do you know where the source code is for the custom modemmanager for this image?

Um, yeah, there did seem to be a lot of ?? in that output, but I'm not familiar enough with raw NMEA output to know what to expect in a no-signal situation ... or how data would get corrupted in any other case.
I do think another try or two would be a good idea, though, just to be sure.
As for the source code, I don't know for sure, but I would start looking at
