Changelog

• Entirely new, rewritten location stack
• Major update to maps implementation. Thanks @fynngodau
• Support for reCAPTCHA Enterprise API
• Various compatibility improvements

Notes

• The new location stack does not support UnifiedNlp modules anymore. This was a step necessary to take to get locations properly working on latest Android versions. This means that some features previously available through UnifiedNlp modules do no longer exist. The goal is to merge the most important of those features into GmsCore. For now, the new locations stack is relying exclusively on Mozilla Location Service for network based location.
• microG GmsCore now requests a few additional privileged permissions. As always, privileged permissions are optional for microG and you can continue using microG as an unprivileged app with only minor downsides. The new privileged permissions are:
  • android.permission.LOCATION_HARDWARE
  • android.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE
  • android.permission.NETWORK_SCAN
  • android.permission.UPDATE_DEVICE_STATS
  • android.permission.WATCH_APPOPS
