android - Long and lat values are accurate and correct, but blue circle is way off -

i developing location-based android "game" , task @ hand map , running accurate blue circle device's current location. using google api client, google maps api , fused location provider. should mention in china, in case factor. , app runs , without vpn on, keep on.

at first thought long/lat values wrong begin with, hence wrong location on map print them in logcat , google them, found out quite accurate. example screenshot:

blue circle shown, black circles location tried from. upon manually searching values online, correct locations black circles

i tried on phone, same correct location , same wrong location(!). have tried gps settings, mobile data, wifi, bluetooth, etc. nothing seems improve situation. permissions asked , granted.

however, asked try app bulgaria, , said works accurately on there. confused. ideas causing problem , how fix it? don't think it's problem code in case, there is.
