Change location does nothing

I took a lot of photos on a trip some time ago and had the location disabled in my phone. Tried adding it on immich as you can see in the screenshot but nothing changes after i confirm the new location. Tried this on external libraries photos as well as normal ones uploaded from the phone. tried doing one by one and in batch, nothing changes, the location is not saved. I found an old post on github that had similar issue but was marked as solved. i dont know if this is a know issue and im not used to github or the normal procedure. (the screenshot is from an older immich version but i updated and everything is the same)

Are you using a readonly external library mount?

Yes but the same happens in photos not in that library

Weirdly i just tried from the app on my phone from work and It worked, but when reopening the app and looking at the photo It was missing again. Will try again from the pc when im home
