Description

As unpatched Android 7 does not allow Location providers outside of /system and as most Android 7 variants are not patched in this regard, I think that it would be reasonable to provide an easy installation method for UnifiedNLP.
There are 2 possibilities:
1. Provide a flashable .zip
2. An installer to push the .apk to /system (requiring root)

I personally think that the 1. option is better. It is easier to achieve (based on my amateurish knowledge) and also works for people who do not like to enable root on their phones.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the Android 7 /system installation constraints and comparing the proposed flashable ZIP with a root-based APK installer; done means providing and documenting one workable installation method.
