Description

Dear Micro Team,

Thanks for the wonderfull Software.
Is use Samsung S8 with E Foundation with MicroG and almost everything is working.
But Naturalist, an App that helps in nature protection by saving occurrence and location of birds isn't working.
I tried to disable additional service like Mozilla and Nomanitim , but i get some strange positions in the ocean.
I cannot use an alternative, because survey like Walter birds or Monitoring alpine birds and so on are conducted via this App.
Is there another way to get à GPS Fix , because all other Apps like Organic Maps, Magic Earth,. .. are working perfectly.

Research direction

The issue identifies NaturaList on a Samsung S8 with microG and reports incorrect ocean positions, but names no source file, test, or entry point. Start by reproducing the GPS behavior with the reported configuration and compare it with the working location apps; done means NaturaList receives an accurate position.
