I installed 1.10.4 RC1 from the F-Droid repo (mine is just .4, not .04).
Maybe they did something in their build to remove Google and make it work without it? You could try that one.

I’m running it without any Google services (on this user profile), not even sandboxed. Would it not work for you when attempting, or have you just seen or heard somewhere that it wouldn’t?
No biggie, but reading the ToS in the app, it states that the app will send anonymous usage data to Google. I’ve disabled its network access (possible on GrapheneOS), and it works anyway. On this topic, the description in F-Droid reads:
Do I need an internet connection? No, but some functions (like entering your location manually) won’t work without one. You’ll have to use the GPS or enter a latitude and longitude instead.
It’s the same on Android.
Waze isn’t FOSS.
You’ll need to first download the relevant section of the map downloaded to be able to search it, though.
I am, and have been, relying on Transportr in multiple European countries, and it’s been a joy. Only problem I’ve had is that additional information from the provider (temporary changes on the route etc.) isn’t there, but that’s no biggie. Sad to hear it’s been unmaintained, hoping it’ll keep working. Though, forking and updating the APIs for future broken providers wouldn’t be too troublesome, right?
There’s also Öffi which was last updated on F-Droid 16 days ago. It does pretty much the same job as Transportr, though it visualises the overview of journeys in a different graphical way than the list of Transportr, which is why I liked Transportr better. However, Öffi has some other neat features that Transportr doesn’t have, such as listing the upcoming departures for all nearby stations/stops at once, based on your location.
If you ever need a 3D map on the phone, have a look at the OSM-based Magic Earth. You’ll have to select a map style (in the General settings) with elevation, such as “Satellite 2 with Elevation and Streets”.
Unfortunately, the app is closed-source…
According to Wikipedia:
HarmonyOS NEXT (Chinese: 鸿蒙星河版; pinyin: Hóngméng Xīnghébǎn) is a proprietary distributed operating system and a major iteration of HarmonyOS, developed by Huawei to support only HarmonyOS native apps. The operating system is primarily aimed at software and hardware developers that deal directly with Huawei. It does not include Android’s AOSP core and is incompatible with Android applications.
“My bike is too fast for GPS” :D
It’s off by default, it seems, in version 1.10.4 RC1 from F-Droid. At least, I went to toggle it off, but it was already done.
Note, I tried rejecting the ToS st the first run, which just closed the app. So… I accepted them at the second run… Though, I don’t know if that in any way really could have affected the setting.
