Description
I'm not sure if this issue is GmsCore related.
CityMapper v6.22 is crashing on my device.
Logcat: https://gist.github.com/pihug12/49504ca314ffda96993feb3f5a76098a
"java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: provider doesn't exist: gps"
My device doesn't have a GPS chip. But WiFi geolocalisation should work.

Research direction
Start with the linked Logcat and reproduce CityMapper v6.22 on the specified Kindle Fire configuration without a GPS chip. No source file or test is identified in the issue, so trace the provider-doesn't-exist exception into GmsCore's location handling; done means CityMapper no longer crashes and WiFi geolocation remains usable.
