Not registered in system is an indication you didn't install microG as system app. There are various flashable installers.
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
I can see it in /system/priv-app - afaik this is a system app than. Do you have LOS17.1?

But it's not just the point of UnifiedNLP but also one line above: System supports Location Provider. This is not checked !!!

On the other hand, maybe Q is different. It doesn't have the battery saving option for location. What I observe is:

SatStat can evaluate a GPS position but with Browser (open maps) I don't see my position. Maybe its a bug of ROM. But as long as nobody can confirm LOS17.1 works, it can be a LOS issue too.
[Android Apps and Games] RobertB3:
Like microG a lot, but

Like microG a lot, but why is "Allow connecting to google servers" grayed out? Or when is this grayed out? And indeed some apps that try will not connect to google servers.

When I am in the wrong section alltogeteher, sorry.

Kind regards, RobertB
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
The current release simy don't ask for the needed permissions in Android 10. That's a fact, read thread before.

It won't work for location as expected. Period.

Marvin is on the next version. At least the official Infos says so.

Los with microG as build is your only chance.

Also get used to the thought not relying on Google stuff. This will help with your actual problem and a better world in general
[Android Apps and Games] RobertB3:
Boy, you are fast.

I am on Android 9. AOSiP on a Moto G7 plus

Shouldn't that work?

btw i do agree with your 'better world in general' but a working banking app would be nice in the meantime :)
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Banking is a critical application. Do you know a report of your specific banking app to sucessfully work on a custom ROM?
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
Android 9 should work.

Banking apps do have some nasty checks...

I had the luck of finding an old but vanilla and vendor default device for this... On Android 6. But as long as the banking app thinks this is saver than a custom rom...

Also I use HBCI.. Or alike for my daily banking with... Sorry for the advertising.. Banking 4A. Which is a generic app which doesn't care so much for the rom settings ?
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
I've installed unifienNLP on official LineageOS 17.1 surnia. I see a blue and a red circle in SatStat. That means, i have nlp and satellite "gps" location
[Android Apps and Games] crypta:
Sat/GPS has not much to do with microG, which uses cell tower and wlan for location
[Android Apps and Games] RobertB3:
Oh well, it is not that critical to me. Voice still arrives on my Nokia 5310 and if the banking doesn't work, I can still barter a few sheep. Sheeps still don't care for GSF, I hope.

The banking app says: (translated from Dutch) "I need Google play services, which is not supported on this device" and then quits.

Still the bloody thing should work. It took me so much time to get it almost working. Any guess on why "Allow connecting to google servers" is grayed out? Anybody? Please . . .

edit: Sorry. This arrived in the wrong place.
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
That is not completly true. In the map (included in the app) there will shown GPS positions in red and roughly estimated positions(wifi/cell tower) blue. That's why this is a proof that bringing both kind of location together is working (or not in my case).

Where did you find that? The only restriction I found is that patcher doesn't work for Q. And - battery saving mode is gone in Q (which is bad imho). Any way to workaround that? As example alow combined position but disable GPS by some hack?
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
"Need Google play service" means spoofing does not work. Show self-check please
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
Lucky one! If you say you installed unifiedNlp: As far as I know it is just the GMSCore - there is no special other unifiedNlp stuff - at least not in P/LOS16. Are there some changes?

I just want to know "who to blame" (where to search) for the bug. I think this first point: "System supports location provider: unchecked" is out of responsibility of mciroG, but a ROM issue. And there may be a Vendor stuff. But I can't be sure, I know to less about this.

I would like to know how to get "System supports location provider" that mirrored in logcat to get a clue.

Furthermore: Checking my position in the browser has no result. Checking the permissions: I give it to the browser but it reports: Never accessed. So probably by a missing layer doesn't the request isn't passed to system.

One more point: The permissions of microG Service core desn't show spoofing as a capability, but selfcheck reports: System Spoofs signature check.
[Android Apps and Games] RobertB3:
microG Settings - Self-Check: all boxes checked except for "Play store (Phonesky) has correct signature"
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
That's exactly the problem your banking app sees.

---------- Post added at 06:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:34 AM ----------

UnifiedNlp (no GAPPS) (Location Provider Middleware (UnifiedNlp)) - https://f-droid.org/app/com.google.android.gms ok. It's called gms like microG or the original plau services, but it's really the stand-alone nlp.
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
Sorry for asking again: so you don't uses microG but a standalone nlp?

Checking my service core (0.2.10.19420) contains nlp 1.6.9 und unified nlp api 1.5.7.

This core works well for LOS16.

Your linked and used nlp is 1.6.8, right? That is latest in FDroid.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Yes. 1.6.8 installed from f-droid and systemized with magisk module.
[Android Apps and Games] Oswald Boelcke:
I don't intend to jump into this discussion due to lack of time currently. However, no issues at all; not with network location, access to my purchased apps or in-app purchases, GCM/FCM notifications etc.

Also on LOS 16.0 (signature spoofing) patched by Smali. µG v0.2.10.19420 and the µG-inherent nlp.

Side remark: No banking app or anything that requires to pass SafetyNet.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Nice area you live in :) did you map the house numbers yourself ?
[Android Apps and Games] Oswald Boelcke:
Yeah, we enjoy it here. And affirmative, I've partially mapped the house numbers that's correct but for the purpose of the screenshot (just showing the availability of a good network location) I'd to pixel some information. I try to contribute to OSM as much as my time allows.

P.S. Just advise if my off-topic is annoying and the post gets removed.
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
Tried this. Installed Magisk+ Systemize, FDroid and there Nominatem, UnifiedNLP, Local GSM Location, SatStat.

Systemized UnifiedNLP (this app is the in /system/priv-app/com.google.android.gms

But result keeps same.

I get the error in log

[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
I stresses all of you a lot with questions about location. The issue is located in ROM or better in overlay of vendor.

"It is about registering com.google.android.gms as a network location provider. This is typically done because it is required for compatibility with original gapps, but it is not part of AOSP. Also some custom ROMs include some proprietary qualcomm network location and then the system is wrongly configured to use that instead. The relevant configuration strings are

- config_networkLocationProviderPackageName

- config_enableNetworkLocationOverlay

- config_networkLocationProviderPackageNames"

com.google.android.gms doesn't mean the app, but a reference in the ROM to this app - this seems to be missed. I hope this become fixed in next release for my device.

Just as background info whenever someone seems same problem.

Is anyone else having problems with ProtonMail not receiving notifications? I'm using Havoc OS (Mi 9T Pro), but push notifications seem to have stopped working in the latest build. All permissions are granted and ProtonMail is also registered for Google Cloud Messaging.
[Android Apps and Games] urgali:
Op6t with crdroid here, using nanodroid as microg installer and got no issues with protonmail notifications

Did you try to uninstall/reinstall the app?
[Android Apps and Games] Rykywype:
I did. I even whitelisted mtalk.google.com domain in my ad blocker and notifications started working normally after some time.

The only app giving me issues right now is IMDb, because the "log in with an IMDb account" appears for a second and closes. I've used Magisk Hide for it just in case, but it didn't change anything. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] urgali:
Maybe you disabled some components of the app for privacy purposes? Try with blocker app and check if all components are turned on
[Android Apps and Games] Rykywype:
For anyone interested - it was indeed the ad blocker's fault. I was using the preview build of AdAway and it disabled some IMDb scripts needed to log in. Thanks.

S9: Really old image at lineage.microg

I hope this is the right forum...

Any reason why download.lineage.microg.org/starlte is on 15.1 while at lineageos it is on 17.1? After the latest OTA update from Samsung I am more keen than ever not to have my phone be the marketing target of companies who think I want to share things more easily.

If the LineageOS option (with MicroG) is not viable for some reason, could someone suggest something better? My banking app simply has to work, hence MicroG.

N26 (de.number26.android)

Is anyone succesfully using the N26 app (de.number26.android) with MicroG?

In my case, while most of the app does work, it doesn't register for notifications (other apps do), and also the "Actions" tab never completes loading:

From what I read, it used to work at some point last year. It's likely something with my setup but I tried all the usual tricks already and before I dig deeper I wanted to ask if it works for anybody else as of now (app version: 3.47.2).

Edit: notifications fixed with MicroG 0.2.11.202414, and for the "Actions" tab to work I downgraded to app version 3.45 of May 30, 2020 (version code: 202021000 - for downloading from the Play Store with Aurora). Hopefully the old version doesn't get banned soon and I can continue using it. Also contacted support, they acknowledged the issue but refused to commit to a fix. If you are also a MicroG user and N26 customer it'd be good to let support know there are more people interested in the fix.
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
I'm facing delayed push notification in all apps apparently since some June build of LineageOS 10.

I've disabled battery optimisation for all involved apps, they're correctly registered to GCM and GCM always reports being connected, I don't use the Power Saving energy mode and the MicroG Services Core app is also not battery optimised. I also manually triggered GCM registration through the dialer but this did not solve the problem.

Does anything comes in mind which I should check to investigate the issue? Thanks

PS: all self-checks are ok for MicroG, except for the expected UnifiedNLP status (Android 10) which is not relevant to this problem.
[Android Apps and Games] Coktail:
Hello Mates,

after many days getting tired eyes from flashing and trying i got microg working on my Oneplus 6 running Syberia Rom (Android).

Just 2 Apps doesnt work......first Line (chat app from asia) and tinder( cant find location).

Hope you guys have a solution for this

Thank you in advance

Best Regards

Coktail
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
In my case N26 has registered to GCM although not immediately. Sadly I don't know what in particular triggered the registration. About the Actions tab issue, I face the same issue.

If you're on Android 10, you could try opening microG Settings -> UnifiedNLP Settings -> Configure location backends, then closing it and opening Tinder. If Tinder retrieves the location through NLP, this could fix the problem. You should follow the same procedure every time it can't find the location through.

Anyone here knows what / howto patch LOS 17/AOSP Q sources to allow spoofing? Probably it is better to do this while compiling that fixing it afterwards.

ATM I just set up everything (due to perfect preparation by devs - I am a noob in this terms) and could compile (without docker in Ubuntu 20.04).

No experience with docker so far - but I guess I don't need it - just https://gitlab.com/fremontt/minimal-docker-for-lineageos/android_sigspoof_patches

I have to check how to apply this patch exactly (so what command, what target (frameworks/base) - always a but trial and error ;) ) but one stupid question: This xml file is not a patch. Is it simply to replace or to add somewhere?

Edit:

If I read this below - what exactly is missing to support Q?

"MicroG community is working with compatibility on Android Q (LOS 17.1)"
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
There have been many changes in microG source code. But we have no new releases, yet.

Re: N26 app (3.47.2) - Actions tab and notifications

Thank you for confirming it, meanwhile I checked it in 3 different setups and the Actions tab doesn't work on any of them:

MicroG 0.2.8.17785, Android 9 PQ3A.190801.002 (AOSP)

MicroG 0.2.10.19420, Android 9 PQ3A.190801.002 (LOS)

MicroG 0.2.10.19420 unofficial "dirty" build with latest updates, Android 10 QQ3A.200705.002 (LOS)

I also looked at the logcats from both where it works (with Google services) and where it doesn't but there is no obvious culprit although I didn't do it very thoroughly, one could still try:

setprop debug.firebase.analytics.app de.number26.android

setprop log.tag.FA VERBOSE

and perhaps adb logcat -P <uid> as at least on the device where it works for me, some of the output is expired by chatty. However, since it's an app specific to their service and I'm a new customer, I contacted their support about it, I'll see what they answer and think about what to do about it then. Thanks again for the response!

For the notifications, can you tell me are (or were) you logged in to your Google account in MicroG when you got them working? That's the only proposed workaround I haven't tried.

Edit: notifications fixed with MicroG 0.2.11.202414, and for the "Actions" tab to work I downgraded to app version 3.45 of May 30, 2020 (version code: 202021000 - for downloading from the Play Store with Aurora).

[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
No, I'm not logged in to my Google account. I'm sorry for not being able to provide more information but the registration happened months ago and I really can't remember what triggered it.

Also, I'd like to thank you back for the Actions tab report, interesting read.

---------- Post added at 10:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:52 AM ----------

No you don't need to install anything to make the test I was proposing to you, you just need to open that view and then close it.

In Android 10, a new location permission policy has been introduced allowing some apps to get the device location only when in use. This currently prevents UnifiedNLP to get it when in background, resulting in apps which rely on it to fail locating your device.

Opening that view should temporarily make UnifiedNLP retrieve the device location and, consequently, the apps relying on it to work.

Obviously, this is only valid in case that's actually the cause producing your issue, but it's a possible fix worth testing.
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Does anyone have suggestions on this?

I just made a test with WhatsApp Web, which I presume it wakes up the device through GCM and it was not being able to connect to my phone, and after minutes not being able to connect it finally did (and immediately) when I turned GCM off and then on again through MicroG's settings.

I really can't figure out what's keeping GCM from working correctly.
[Android Apps and Games] d1n0x:
There's a new version and implementation of FCM, there is a pull request on GitHub

[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Yup, but I was able to flawlessly reproduce the case in which WhatsApp Web would connect to my device only after I disabled and re-enabled GCM in microG's settings, the correlation was clear and this allowed me to test the fixes I tried without asking people to message me every time. Anyway, the issue seems to be gone with the new release!

This seems to have fixed my issue and is currently working greatly. Also, for anyone interested, the location fix for Android 10 is included.
[Android Apps and Games] Oswald Boelcke:

In the changelog https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.2.11.202414, I see

AFAIK that version of UnifiedNlp hasn't been build yet, the latest build available is v1.6.8.

If someone could build v2.0alpha2 from https://github.com/microg/UnifiedNlp/tree/v2.0-alpha2 maybe we could give it a shot.

strange, every morning at this same time, my microg installation goes nuts,

I mean google fails but manages to do enough in order to break my microg installation,

only solution is to install it over (version code is reported as "-1"!) and this happens only with the new version 0.2.11,

it wasn't happening with 0.2.10
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Do you have a Google play store installed ? Maybe that tries to update the play services
[Android Apps and Games] patrickdrd:
