GPS does not work while roaming on LineageOS 20 (lake)

[terceiro]

Describe the bug I cannot get location to work at all. I tried on OsmAnd+, Organic Maps, and GPSTest. A few points

• Location is enabled
• All the apps have permission to use location
• Under microG settings, I have 2 locations modules enabled: Noninatim and GSM Location service (installed via f-droid as "Local GSM Location"). I cannot enable Mozilla Location Service. As soon as I toggle the control in the UI, the screen flickers and the toggle is turned back to the off position.

Using logcat, I get two different issues. Trying to use either OamAnd+ or Organic Maps, I get a Illegal Argument exception:

When I try any app, including all of the ones I mentioned above, there are always instances of this message:

02-05 22:13:49.235  2705  2962 I LocationAccessPolicy: org.fitchfamily.android.gsmlocation is aware of fine but the app-ops permission is specifically denied.

(in the Organic Maps case, I get both the exception and instances of this permission issue)

I am not entirely sure either of those is directly linked to the issue.

Expected behavior Location (via GPS or otherwise) should work out of the box.

System Android Version: 13 Custom ROM: LineageOS 20 for microg (lineage-20.0-20230126-microG-lake.zip) Device: Motorola moto g7 plus (lake)

Additional context I am currently traveling so I am on roaming (with mobile data off), but even the network-based detection and the GSM tower one don't work. Back home Uber worked just fine to get to the airport.

Hello @terceiro, probably you will be interested to know that I'm facing the same error than you (java.lang.IllegalArgumentException) and also have no Location on E OS (see https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/backlog/-/issues/5770#note_371348).
