Is what i do, resolve my problem by myself. Sorry but i participated in threads with dedicated devs, who answers or minimum read the posts from users. Thats why i said i know im loosing my time here ;)
[Android Apps and Games] ale5000:
Try to create a big project for free (being the only and only one programmer) and in real life also doing paid work all days.

Then after this tell me how much time remain to reply to all users.

Also we are near Christmas.

Are programmers allowed to go on holiday? :)

I don't know him but I can guess it since the same apply to me for other projects.
[Android Apps and Games] gh0stzk:
Say what u want that thrash dialog i read here all days "they do it for free" Yes thats why i dont came here begging for help or asking for stable version...

Other devs that makes this for free and work and have a real life too at least provide changelogs. And yes for them is almost christmas too.

But is not my intention to argue or fight here, thats my opinion. If people dont install the project, the project dies. So at least that people who install and care the project deserves at least a changelog.

I checked satstat, and not only are the GLONASS satellites ignited ignored, but also SBAS, on my mostly vanilla lineage build.

Now I've got to research how to fix that. Gps.conf maybe? Got any quick links or pointers about this issue? If I can work it out I'll publish a patch.

//this has already been pointed out as off topic, but since it's already posted, I'm editing with the link to a fix from lineage gerrit... Which doesn't work on my device, but maybe someone will find it useful

https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/193980/1/gps/etc/gps.conf
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
This is a good idea, but verry off topic in a microG thread. Maybe yo can discuss the details in LineageOS Q&A subforum?
[Android Apps and Games] bigsupersquid:
You're right, OT. I'll pm about it instead of open forum discussion in this thread the issue was brought up in (and the post I quoted did indeed specify it's not a microg issue.)
[Android Apps and Games] ale5000:
It isn't the point, the problem isn't "for free", every person is different.

One may work for 4 hours per day while another may work 10 hours per days (only for example).

One may follow only one open sources project while another may follow 10 open source projects.

It isn't possible to establish a "standard reply time".

For example, in my case, I can reply after 1 day in some cases while in some other cases I can reply after 1 year.

Personally I prefer one that maybe reply late but support the project for a lot of years instead of a person that reply instantly but after 1/2 years got sick of the project and then leaves completely the project.

In my projects I give almost lifetime support but obviously I can't give fast replies to all people in all projects.

Hello, I'm new to microg, so I wrongly set my account without checking required permissions on microg setting, and without reboot. So, it failed, and then I set them and reboot. After that I still stuck on login screen when setting my account. Later, I tried different google account, and successfully login into my google account. However, when I try to add account using my own account that previously failed, I still fail and stuck at login screen. What should I do? Thank you.

EDIT: turns out my own account already registered from previous failed login before reboot, but not shown at setting and play store. Any way to fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
You talk about logging into play store with your Google account? First stepped I would try is to clear app data in settings/apps
[Android Apps and Games] Smantanasiceapa:
i can't find any download link of the latest version, not on official site or some other place. Can somebody provide me the link pls?
[Android Apps and Games] khnoizer:
Please point me, what app should I clear its data? because clear play store not working as I expected. There are several apps that's installed for using microG.:)

Hello there. Thanks to dev for this awesome work!!. I installed microg.zip via twrp everything works but one thing. In apps that use Google maps the is no map showing. Using cr_droid rom nougat for redmi 4a. Any help would be more than welcome. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
Right now it seems that notification (via microG - GCM) is not working for me (ebay for instance).

I found that in microG settings GCM is enabled, but not connected and no apps using it. My questions (for understanding):

To connect it - do I have to activate Google Registry and (of course not forget to enable microG core in firewall) ?

But what is the reason that no app is registered there?

Thank you.

---------- Post added at 01:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:13 PM ----------

Can you keep me updated, send a link? Have the same problem on my LOS14.1. It shows the Glonass sats, but they never get used - what a pity.
[Android Apps and Games] guest4711:
Afaik you have to install these apps after installing g-apps rsp. mikroG. Otherwise these apps do not see GCM and will not use it. So uninstall these apps (LOOSING LOCAL DATA AND SETTINGS), reboot and install them afterwards again.
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
I installed it via TitaniumBackup (just the app - not restored the data.) I though it will work, as without data it is like a fresh install. Isn't it?
[Android Apps and Games] elmex1000:
[MENTION=8239760]vaglan[/MENTION]

I can confirm this as well.

See also issue 455 on GitHub. Maybe you could report there as well.
[Android Apps and Games] guest4711:
Not sure. The installation of the original apk may depend on hardware (not installling x86-libs on arm) but also on software (not installings some libs -or installing another flavor) if no g-apps are found). So I would prefer to use the original. You may download it via http(s) using any browser from e.g. apkpure.
[Android Apps and Games] MariferC:
--More off topic--

Seems related (but not the same) as bug BUGBASH-383, it also happens on other devices that are on LOS 14.1, while on LOS 13.0 (or CM 13.0) they can "connect" to Glonass satellites.
[Android Apps and Games] vaglan:
Just reported to github.Seems to be a common problem. Let's hope there is an answer. Thanks for your replie
[Android Apps and Games] lurchi17:
I also got a problem with push notifications. With me it's Whatsapp causing the problem. I've already reinstalled it twice. First it works for some time, but after a couple of days I only get messages after opening the app. Batteryoptimization is off. GCM is on, but Whatsapp doesn't use it, does it? Anyhow it isn't listed in migrog settings.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Did you enable Google device registration?
[Android Apps and Games] lurchi17:
No, do I have to to use Whatsapp? Besides I installed Whatsapp via Yelp.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
No registration; no cloud messaging.
[Android Apps and Games] starbright_:
Do you understand why they closed the bug?
[Android Apps and Games] lurchi17:
Good to know. I wonder why there is no note when activating GCM while registration is off.
[Android Apps and Games] Coolgoly:
Device registration is off,cloud messaging is also off here but whatsapp notifications work fine.

The issue comes from something else in my opinion
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Whatsapp can contact the Server directly. GCM not needed but maybe energy saving or faster.
[Android Apps and Games] vaglan:
Solved. There is a fix in github https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/issues/455#issuecomment-353787947.Worked fo me

Cool. Maybe there was something wrong with my set up. My Google Play download kept failing after downloading so many MBs.
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
Did you grant storage permission for Plas Store? That's required for huge apps, in fact I had a similar issue with Layton's Mystery Journey, which failed after 1,4GB without that permission.

Guys, after a failure try of replacing gapps with microg, I reinstalled Gapps again, but now I can't add a google account, each time I add it, it doesn't save and require it again.

Any idea?
[Android Apps and Games] godofsalt:
A few... Didn't state of wiping cache or dalvik cache. Iets say if you went in and Uninstalled MicroG AND then installed GApps...? There will be some scripts that are still there, even with a reboot, then install GApps... Need to wipe the cache. Plus, you may have broken links and scripts still in the system/... Might want to look at a clean install of what you want/need.
[Android Apps and Games] aser_elhbayeb:
I managed to clean install ROM and the microg worked fine.

Thanks for help anyway :)

anyone able to get bypass the verification without Google store?
[Android Apps and Games] OSheden:
Google Play Store app is required to pass these license verifications.
[Android Apps and Games] ale5000:
For a simple way if you want you can do this:

1) Flash my installer selecting Play Store

2) Verify all apps that need it

3) Flash my installer again selecting Fake Store

I have succesfully installed micro g on my s3 but I can't sync calendar and contacts with google...any help??
[Android Apps and Games] w0rinal:
Any logs?? Any Error messages??

Just kidding

But providing logs and describing the problem/situation more detailed helps finding out what's causing the error.

Like what's the ROM you are using, do other functions work, e.g. Maps, store, etc
[Android Apps and Games] vagkoun83:
I sorry..

I set up my s3 with cyanogen 5.1.1 (archidroid) and I am trying to make the phone as open source as possible. From google apps I have installed only google keyboard.

I install microg and the other components and everything seems ok.

I can add a google account at settings/account but the account doesn't sync calendar and contacts with google.
[Android Apps and Games] Koloses:
I don't think that you can sync these using microg.
[Android Apps and Games] belyava:
In order to get my contact from google I copied the GoogleBackupTransport.apk to /sysyem/app and the GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk to priv-app. And it worked.

But I never resieved any pushes, even though everything was set up correctly. All boxes on the microG settings were ticked, the Push Notification Checker showed everything's ok. I could recieve pushes untill the app, that was supposed to recieve these pushes, left open. Since that app was closed no more pushes went through.

I'm on OMNI, android 4.4.2
[Android Apps and Games] vagkoun83:
So for example, if you change a contact you can't update it to google contacts servers unless you open the app???

thanxx
[Android Apps and Games] belyava:
Well, I can't tell. I recieved my contacts well, synced with no errors. I think it should work vise versa too.
[Android Apps and Games] vagkoun83:
Thank my fried, i will try
[Android Apps and Games] barturblits:
In the self test, all test are successful except for 'system supports location provider'. I got a cm12.1 based ROM with signature spoofing enabled, network location works with GPS disabled (no xposed).

[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Apk files typically come with whatever necessary libraries bundled inside them. This works fine for user apps (i.e. not system apps) but system apps expect their libraries to be extracted somewhere, either /system/lib/ or a lib/ subdirectory of the one containing the apk file. The three main unofficial installers for microG (by me, [MENTION=4187311]Setialpha[/MENTION], and [MENTION=5627087]ale5000[/MENTION]) all have these libraries extracted on install to prevent the issue you ran into.

TL;DR: You did something wrong, then fixed it.
[Android Apps and Games] bnsmb:
Hi

Thanks for the confirmation .. I checked the scripts in the zip microG-unofficial-installer-ale5000-v1.0.26-alpha-signed.zip and there are some other actions done so I used that image now to install microG.

Still all working execpt :

the "Deja Vu" Backend stops from time to time with the message "Deja Vu Location Service has stopped"

and more important

Google Maps needs a long time now to get my location and sometimes it hangs (using now Google Maps Version 9.68.2; before I installed MicroG I used Google Maps Version 7.40 and that version worked perfect).

I 've to check what's going on here because Google Maps is one of the Google Apps that are not crap (but any hints where and how to check for this error are welcome ...)

regards

Bernd
[Android Apps and Games] ale5000:
There is a fix for Maps APIv2 in the latest version of microG GmsCore that isn't included in the latest released version of my installer but if you want you can get the latest sources of my installer (that are already updated) and compile it yourself.

Sources download link.

PS: For Deja Vu I'm waiting the new version on F-Droid.

Apparently F-Droid have some server issues currently.

PS2: Also take a logcat of the crash so we can see if it is one of the problems already fixed
[Android Apps and Games] bnsmb:
Hi

done ("compile" means "execute build.sh" to create the ZIP file for installation I assume). I then installed that new ZIP file (without removing the existing installation before because there is a call to uninstall.sh in the install.sh)

But the error is still there - Google Maps does not find the location (This is Google maps 7.40 again) I tested some other applications (SatStat, GPS Test) - these apps get the current location and GSP fix very quick.

see attachement (if the format of the logcat is wrong let me know -- that's my first logcat)

[Android Apps and Games] RealVaVa:
I was try to make modified F-Droid with integrated (and default actived) microG repo. Check attachments. For updating system apps F-Droid must be installed like system app too.

Backends, Fakestore, DroidGuard Help etc can be updated automaticaly from that (like GAPPS from Play Market). Configured repos are saved after officalial update of FDroid.

P.S.: APK was signed and tested on Android 4.4.4, 5 and 6.
[Android Apps and Games] bnsmb:
Hi

I now did a short test while walking around in the town:

- Osmand always get's the correct location in not more then 5 to 10 seconds

- Google Maps get's the correct location direct after it's started ; the current location is shown with a blue point. But shortly after the start (not more then 1 or 2 minutes max) the location is shown with a grey point and does not change anymore . Most of the times I also then get a dialog with "Map is not responding" and can choose between "Close map" or "Wait". "Close map" does close Google Mpas and "Wait" does not change anything. After a restart of Google Maps the game starts from the beginning again.

regards

Doe's it work on omni 8.1

I'm stuck at login screen
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Considering that it works well on Omni 8.1 for me, I'm going to suggest that maybe something when wrong when you set it up. We can't help you, however, unless you tell us what you did to install microG and provide some sort of logs.
[Android Apps and Games] weigeloveu:

1.install microG from f-droid

[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
1. Make sure you're using the lastest "beta" version

2. Google Play doesn't work unless it is installed to /system/priv-app

3. You'll get issues if you don't extract libraries from the apps you install to /system

An unofficial installer for microG like the previous one linked or my own at https://shadow53.com/android/downloads/microg/ will take care of these "gotchas" for you.
[Android Apps and Games] ale5000:
For those that have problems with signature spoofing there is now Xposed Framework for Android Oreo.
[Android Apps and Games] demonoidmaster:
Umm check your wifi connection, it shows something is wrong with it
[Android Apps and Games] jclendineng:
Awesome work. I am gapps free on 7.1.2. The only thing I needed was hangouts and Google voice and location all of which are working wonderfully. I used the zip installer a few posts back, I tried nanomod and that was pretty cool to though I didn't need most of the apps that came installed so I flashed the microg zip and was all set. I used signature spoofing from xposed and magisk to root.
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
Not that it actually matters, but NanoMod has a microG-only variant aswell and is flexible, so you choose what to install through the setup wizard.
[Android Apps and Games] tofu:
UnifiedNlp is not registered

Everything else works fine, except UnifiedNlp. In self-check everything else is checked except "system supports location provider", "UnifiedNlP is registered in system" and "UnifiedNlp do not have Location to test Geocoder"

I can only get GPS location, and nothing else.

First I tried regular microg F-droid repo install. Same result.

Then I tried microg /system/app install. Same result.

Then I tried microg /system/priv-app install. Same result.

I also tried flashing the zip from https://shadow53.com/android/downloads/microg/ which basically installs microg as system app.

And I did try several correctly configured location backeds. Nothing.

But no matter what I try, location provider doesn't work as intented. Location settings show that "microG Services core" is requesting location, but still it doesn't work.

I'm running latest 7.1.2, clean flashed CarbonROM on Oneplus One. Signature spoofing is enabled.

I have also checked that there are no conflicting location providers (as someone suggested on this thread, I have done my search)

Any ideas?

EDIT: MicroG works perfectly on Candy7 Rom with Xposed FakeGapps2 module. Location and everything.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
There is an xposed module for NLP. I use it in addition to standard microG installation.
[Android Apps and Games] tofu:
Thanks for the tip, but it did not help. Still no network / wifi based location.
[Android Apps and Games] ghst7:
Does anyone knows why this happen or how to fix it?

I clean flashed my ROM LOS 14.1 and used ale500 zip installer, everything works fine, but every time after a week of use this permanent notification pops up and it goes away only if I manually force close play store, I've searched before but couldn't find an answer related to micro G, if anyone knows anything I will be thankful \`[T] /
[Android Apps and Games] jclendineng:
Hmm that looks like the play store. Microg is for people who don't want Google services. Flash gapps if you want to use Google apps, if you are just looking for a store, yalp is a good alternative, fdroid as well for Foss software. Fakestore is something you might want to look at as well, if you have a license you need to activate then uninstall it. But back to original point microg is for an experience without play services but allowing you to use location and some Google apps. It's mostly used for apps that require Google cloud messaging to push notifications.

---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

Edit: Google nanomod or search the thread. There is an android file host repository, you can download microg zips that works great there.

Edit2: make sure you are on the latest version, older versions will have that error as well
[Android Apps and Games] ghst7:
Thanks for your time mate, but sorry your post is far from being an answer to my question, I'm trying to find out what's the specific trigger to that pop up notification
[Android Apps and Games] jclendineng:
Sorry I wasn't more clear. It's happening because your device doesn't have play services and cant connect to Google in that way. My second edit said to make sure you have latest version, it's a known issue on the older builds.
[Android Apps and Games] jclendineng:
Just tested on latest Los 7.1 and Los 8.1, works great
