Description

Hi I was hoping for a working forum but it seems there is none.
I just installed gmscore, fakegapps etc onto lineage 14.1 lots of stuff is working, some apps report a backlevel Google services and wont run (I imagine there would be a simple way to resolve that) but my biggest showstopper is that I can no longer use the uber app, it starts and will show my history and account but there is no hope of booking a ride. It just tells me I need to update Google services.
The microg settings says everything is OK but clearly it is a complex job to check everything. I am reasonably technical but apart from getting a logcat I really don't know what to do or even if this kind of app will ever work?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the Uber booking failure on LineageOS 14.1 with the reported microG setup, then collect and inspect a logcat while booking a ride. The issue does not name a file, test, or entry point; done would require identifying the Google services compatibility failure and confirming a concrete fix with Uber.
