Unable to share location on Android

When trying to share my location, I am unable to send my location. Tapping the share location option will open the map screen, with the option to move the marker around, and a bar at the bottom of the screen with a checkmark and a loading wheel that continuously spins, but never does anything. When the checkmark is tapped, it will put a draft map location in the chat window, but there is no option to send it.

I don't have Google maps, and use OsmAnd~ for maps.

I've heard of people with similar setups having issues. A log would help me confirm it's the same issue, but the last time I saw a log related to this, the map implementation was throwing an exception when it shouldn't be, i.e. some bug in your device's implementation. If you provide a log, I'm happy to confirm.

This seems similar to #9101. Based on your logfile you're also using microg and I see the next messages:

• GmsMap : unimplemented Method: setBuildingsEnabled
• GmsMap : unimplemented Method: snapshot

Not the same as the 'GmsMap : unimplemented Method: setOnMapLoadedCallback' mentioned in the original ticket but I assume using microg is the reason.

This looks like a bug with the address geocoder that gets into a fail loop and never resolves. We are unlikely to prioritize fixing this as it's a bit niche but if someone wants to make a PR, I'll happily review it.

Thanks for looking into this everyone. I appreciate the help!

Looking into this it seems the address returned in the PlacePickerActivity is correct. The problem likely is the missing snapshot method in microg, used in SignalMapView. I assume that's needed to know the map is rendered correctly. It appears to be on the list at microg. See microg/GmsCore#1617

Don't close. Still impacts Signal 6.15.3.

Don't close. Still impacts Signal 6.21.3. Thanks.

Even with snapshots now being implemented in microG (microg/GmsCore#1617 (comment)), the correct map is still not shared. The reason is that microG does not implement GoogleMap.OnMapLoadedCallback correctly (microg/GmsCore#1960). See also: #13006.
