Description
You even could make it active by tapping 7 times on microG version (to make it less dangerous and less clutter).
The Functions:
-
Check which location provider packages are currently used. (is this even possible without xposed?)
com.android.location.fused— android's default flpcom.google.android.gms— microg/unifiednlpcom.qualcomm.location— qualcomm's location service with IZat, known for leaking user's location and IP — should be disabled for correct working unifiednlp! (pm disable com.qualcomm.location)
also these can be configured in framework's strings.xml (package names) and bools.xml (enable or disable location package overlay), but we could have more convenient way to at least check these values.
- could be anything for other vendors…
-
Button(s) to toggle (enable|disable) correct permissions, such as
-
pm grant com.android.vending android.permission.FAKE_PACKAGE_SIGNATURE -
pm grant com.google.android.gms android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION -
pm grant com.google.android.gms android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION -
pm revoke com.qualcomm.location android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION -
pm revoke com.qualcomm.location android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION -
pm disable com.qualcomm.location -
pm enable com.qualcomm.location -
etc…

Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing Android tabs and the diagnostic UI, then inspect framework strings.xml and bools.xml for the package and overlay values mentioned. Define the supported provider and permission states before implementing; done means the tab can show those values and safely expose the requested toggles.
