Hello! There is a bug(?) which is exists in any releases till now.
It cause permanent location error ~25km to notrh (even if restart the application), if use OFFLINE yandex.maps after usage of any ONLINE maps except yandex.maps

How you can simulate it:
1) switch to online classic.yandex.maps
3) exit application, then start it again
4) save offline map of your region using classic.yandex.maps source
5) exit application, then start it again
6) switch to online classic.google.maps
7) exit application, then start it again
8) switch to offline classic.yandex.maps - Voila! - we have location error 25 km to north. The error is permanent, it exists even if restart the application.

To make location correct back, we need to do those steps:
1) switch to online classic.yandex.maps
2) exit application, then start it again
3) switch to offline classic.yandex.maps
now, we have correct location at offline classic.yandex.maps, but offline classic.google.maps became with error 25km to south  :o

ps. gps was always on and send my coordinates when i do all steps listed above - i don't know, maybe it matters.

Thanks for fix! :)

and which error? on online maps or only on offline?

Online should be fixed!

Offline - there is description below new testing version
"For offline, Yandex maps have to be created with new locus version. Old will not work. "

So?

So?
Definitely, I had no problems with online maps at all.
I had problems with offline maps only/
So, as I understood, now I need to re-create offline maps?

fine, as I wrote.

How big are your created map? If they're big and you're little bit familiar with databases, there is need to change one parameter (int table info, column provider) in sql database. Otherwise download new ...

So write me, and I should write you more about parameter to change.

fine, so I'll write description here, if anyone need this ...

1. run at least once new Locus. This will update database file.
2. Then download and run software called Sqlite database browser
3. open you map in it and go to Browse data tab
4. select table info and you can see all additional info that I'm writing to table
5. there is provider column. In this column you need to get number 80 which is ID of yandex maps
6. so in last (third) tab, write "DELETE FROM info" (without ") which will remove one line in info table
7. then "INSERT INTO info (provider) VALUES ('80')" which add required provider into table. Rest of data will add Locus itself during initialization process

Write me if this work for you
