Yeah, I have the same behavior in my Nexus 4 (LOS + my UnifiedNlp installer), 
I did restore The package from LOS 14.1 with Titanium Backup. This app still had a launcher but was not made a system app and therefore did not work properly.
But now everything is working as expected. Only thing missing is the App Launcher. For me that is not a problem at all. Thanks again for updating the package for oreo!

@Roboe Is your package meant to be used on LOS without microG? Because I fail to get UnifiedNLP up and running in oreo, hence I’d give it a try…
Yes, it was succesfully tested in official Lineage OS. It also survives OTA upgrades, 
Note that UnifiedNlp can’t be launched normally for some reason (as documented in this thread). You can find detailed instructions on how to launch it through Settings here.
You may be missing the permissions whitelist (required from Oreo): flashable-zip_microG/privapp-permissions-microg.xml at master · WeAreFairphone/flashable-zip_microG · GitHub
I’m sorry for not replying earlier, I just discovered your answer.
“flashable-zip_microG” sound’s like this s something to use when using microG. Can/Should I flash your permissions whitelist, too, even when I’m not using microG?
UnifiedNlp is part of the microG project. Just a very stripped down version that only covers network location. So the repo I linked has resources for generating my flashable ZIPs for installing both, the full microG setup and the UnifiedNlp setup.
The permissions file is required by both setups in Android Oreo. Since you were setting up UnifiedNlp by manually placing the APKs in the /system partition, I linked the XML file for you to finish the setup yourself, understanding you could prefer that (learning the process) than blindly flashing my UnifiedNlp ZIP.
If you however want the later, flash this over a clean LineageOS system.

I managed to create a unifiednlp-minimal_2019-04-04.zip
Is there a particular reason you said to flash it over a “clean” system? And if I flashed it over my current system, how would I revert the changes, in case something doesn’t go quite as expected?
Edit: Took a deep breath and flashed it over my non-clean system (After removing all traces of my previous UnifiedNLP installation I could find). It worked. Thx for your help!
I have another question: There exists a UnifiedNLP Version on F-Droid? Why you dont use that?
I installed it at LineageOS 16 and it appears in the launcher 
Is it necessary, that UnifiedNLP is integrated in the system?
You’ll usually install them normally, but Google blocked userspace location providers in Android 7+, and some ROMs have not applied required patches yet, like LineageOS.
Source: README file at GitHub
My flashable ZIP installs system-wide the exact same APK retrieved from F-Droid.
Hi Roboe,
your flashable zip is not yet Pie compatible? I am testing Lineage OS 16.0 from chrhoffmann and found out that the flashable zip does not integrate unifiednlp in the system.
It works now…
I just installed the zip file again …and it works…

I don’t have a Pie phone for testing purposes, so I rely on your feedback only. Good to hear it’s working. Don’t hesitate to bring up here any further issues (if any).
