Carriers can track your coarse location through various means. At minimum, you need to use airplane mode to turn off the baseband modem, and turn off Wifi-calling which bypasses the system VPN. There may also be additional connections to the carrier's servers outside of the VPN tunnel, so you need to use Wireshark to verify this for your specific setup.
