Works for me using the proof of concept AGPS loader run manually on Mobian with my Brave Heart. Without AGPS you are considerably less likely to get a location fix. You need a data connection to download the AGPS data. I have seen one photo of an antenna that looks different to the one on my phone, but I don't know of that was a later model or an earlier prototype. ModemManager won't let you enable location reporting if there isn't a SIM present, although the hardware is capable of it.
Opensuse may work out of the box - there is at least an agps loader in the pinephone-helpers package:

Dylan Van Assche's ModemManager pull request has been accepted upstream but I don't know if it's in the versions used by any distros. It should allow uploading the data using the ModemManager interface, such as mmcli's --location-inject-assistance-data option. The related request for Mobian's eg25-manager is still pending.
