Anyone know how to allow a Samsung galaxy A5 android phone location to be detected by fab?

I don't have a Samsung but I was having the same problem, I downloaded a new web browser (Firefox) and everything works fine now, you should give that a try.

You’ve probably done this already but have you checked your privacy/location settings?

A lot of users have reported location settings problems with Samsung and other mobiles on fab, whilst it may work on other sites.

You can delete your location saved history data within your phone. It's probably best to turn GPS location off, clear the historical data and to then close the browser. When reopened, reactivate GPS location settings again. May also help to switch phone off and on again. Other forum posts for Mobile via a search also have other pointers.

As someone pointed out, downloading a different web browser may fix it - there are now a lot of them. You'd need to check app permissions for each one, to include location. Some browsers let you give permission for location info per site too. You could also experiment viewing the site in desktop view, rather than the mobile app, so see if any difference.

If you read this again, to help other users in future, was there a specific solution that got it sorted?
