Description
@mar-v-in
Please add new checks to microG self check (but only if detect microG Companion and not Play Store).
- These permissions are requested from microG Companion:
org.microg.gms.permission.READ_SETTINGS
com.google.android.gms.permission.READ_SETTINGS
If not, then suggest to update microG Companion.
- These permissions are granted to microG Companion:
org.microg.gms.permission.READ_SETTINGS
com.google.android.gms.permission.READ_SETTINGS
If not, then suggest to reinstall microG Companion and check that it has the same signature of microG Service.
It will help with issues like this: #2333

Locate the microG self-check implementation and trace how it detects microG Companion versus Play Store and reports suggestions. Verify how Android permission requests, grants, and signatures are inspected; done means both permission checks run only for Companion and produce the specified update or reinstall guidance when needed.
