Where is your source of the playstore used?

by the way I tried this on my Nexus 5 with omnirom 6.0 fresh install latest nightly but theres no effect. I did not install GAPPS or any package. I just factory resetted then install ROM->SuperSU->reboot->flash the package
[Android Apps and Games] enban:
Same for me. I had to do it twice. The second time I explicitly told TWRp to mount /system RW. It worked, thath way.

EDIT: I was able to update GPlay through APK mirrorr, so it seems to be legit.
[Android Apps and Games] amnher:
[MENTION=3898263]enban[/MENTION]

are you able to install Google+? I am using the package of [MENTION=7126506]Shadow53[/MENTION] and succeeded and it also updated to 6.1.X. I can install any apps like rar, asphalt etc... but I can't install G+. It gives Error 507. I tried manual APK install but still not able to install.
[Android Apps and Games] enban:
I didn't try to do it. I try to avoid G+, so I'm keeping the bare minimum of google apps (GPlay, in my case). Sorry.

Do you mean install F-droid or Yalp as a replacement ?

Actually I was tried to install F-droid but it not linked Google account ?

And I could't find some apps like Chrome, Drive, etc....

Could you give me some advice.

For Nanodroid, I was tried but Play store still not connected - "Error retrieving information from server [RH-01]"

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
F-droid is no replacement. It's an alternative with many useful apps. It is not linked to Google. You will find yalp in f-droid. That is linked to Google play store.

You can Google for rh-01 microG to get nanodroid running, or visit XDA nanodroid thread.

You can put a txt file with the license in the root folder of your phone. Check the Titanium Help sites on how to convert.

[Android Apps and Games] schoebi_zh:
Since I had to change from Moto G4 running lineageos with integrated microg to the Moto G5s plus (xt1805) a few apps don't start recognise the play services anymore and don't therefore. GPS and push services run smoothly.

For about a year I try to get it running.

The microg apps from fdroid are all installed.

Three month ago I switched to https://xdaforums.com/moto-g5s-plus/development/rom-lineageos-15-1-microg-support-t3813309/ and since then the microg selfcheck shows accepted signature spoofing.

Though two problems it still identifies, see the screenshots (in german).

Anyone an idea what I could try?
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
You need to grant signature spoofing permission to Fake Store.
[Android Apps and Games] schoebi_zh:
The Play Store (Phonesky) problem is solved, great!

UnifiedNlp still reports the problem.

Update: installed the xposed module, now UnifiedNlp boxes are checked too in the microg selfcheck.

I'll report if the two apps, that had problems under microg now work as soon as I can test that.

Update 2: both apps seem to work now
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Alternative to xposed module is making gmscore a system app. That's why flashable installers are so popular for microG.

Could I somehow get this on a stock sm-g960w8 ? The best I can do is disable my current play services, and when trying to install this it just says failed... Any help?
[Android Apps and Games] Namnodorel:
You need to remove all Google Play services. There is no other way to use microG, disabling isn't enough.
[Android Apps and Games] austin_5118:
There's no way to completely remove without root is there?
[Android Apps and Games] Namnodorel:
Not that I know of. You might be able to do it without technically having Root by just unlocking the bootloader and using TWRP, but the unlocking is often enough to trip SafetyNet or whatever is your concern.
[Android Apps and Games] ΦDroid:
I cannot find any info on this on the internet. Is it possible to use Project Fi with microG? Is it dependent on Google Play Services or the Fi app?
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
You can go noGoogle. Remove Google account, disable all Google apps, install f-droid. In case you need play store stuff, get it with yalp.

Android 9 Pie (unofficial LineageOS 16 on Xiaomi Mi 8):

I can't get apps relying on Google Map's API to correctly load the map and make me interact with it. Just one app seems to load a probably cached version but nothing else works. Funnily enough, Google Maps does work correctly if I don't install NanoDroid's patched Play Store's APK.

In microG's self-check page everything is correctly checked.

Any support?

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Something I've noticed: Google Maps won't work (seems not being able to connect to the internet since it does not show anything other than a cached map) if Google Play Store (NanoDroid patched) is installed on the device. The only way to make it work AND use the needed Play Store functionality is:

1- Install microG

2- Install Play Store

3- Use the needed Play Store functionality

4- Uninstall Play Store

5- Uninstall microG

6- Reinstall microG

7- Install Google Maps

This is very annoying since the reinstallation of microG causes every app not to be GCM-registered anymore, so you'll need to uninstall and reinstall every app which needs GCM.

I haven't found a shorted method yet. I've tried unregistering Maps from GCM after the Play Store removal and re-registering it, in a tentative not to reinstall microG, but Maps still doesn't load anything in this way.

Any idea on the cause and possible faster fixes?
[Android Apps and Games] Zingamindz:
I'd like to know if any MicroG users have successfully used the Microsoft "Your Phone" and MS Edge browser to sync Edge history/favorites/reading list and also Timeline (To AND From) Android and Windows?

The "Your Phone" app runs through the wizard OK and states its connected. But the Windows 10 "Your Phone" app just hangs on the "Please install the app we texted you...etc)

Whats interesting is that my Android Edge browser history appears in my Windows 10 Timeline. But if I use Edge in Windows, My history/favorites/reading list do not sync back to my phone. In Microsoft Launcher, I do not get any timeline info in the new Timeline section of MS launcher.

I have noticed though that the new sync between Windows Sticky Notes and the latest OneNote BETA actually works fine! Which I didn't expect given the above issues.

I know I can get a lot of the above functionality using Firefox and Pocket and actually those are my main browsing tools on my personal phone But i am a office365 \Windows admin and do like to keep up to date with MS's work on Android and demo these to my users. I think I may have to dig out an old phone with Play Store and Services and use that with these MS apps.
[Android Apps and Games] d1n0x:
lol...
[Android Apps and Games] updesh94:
Yes, use maps version 9.6 which seems much faster and works flawlessly..
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Thank you! Given the type of answer I assume this is a known issue, any info on the apps using the Maps API to show a map? None of them seem to work.

I see this as a big deal since a lot of these apps are very important in today's life, public transportation in primis.
[Android Apps and Games] Mynacol:
For public transportation, I recommend "Transportr". It is free software and available on F-Droid, it doesn't depend on Google Maps things and it supports all major and some minor public transportation provider.

[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Thank you a lot for the advice, however it doesn't seem to work very well in my area (it calculates extra-long routes for some reason) and more importantly the problem is still there for car/bike rental apps, which are extremely popular and used in my area. That's the biggest problem, all of these apps seem no to connect to the internet :/

Something is wrong with the latest dirty versions. Latest is over 12MB while stable is about 2MB. Also Threema registration is broken again in dirty versions.
[Android Apps and Games] Oswald Boelcke:
By my information, @MaR-V-iN doesn't issue any dirty version. Here, you find his GmsCore releases. I'm also using "a dirty version" installed from @Setialpha's F-droid repo. Here are his changelogs. I concur there's a difference in size but you might want to consider to announce the issue in the NanoDroid thread.
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
Theese builds are debuggable APKs, which are bigger than stripped release APKs. Future builds will be release APKs anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] updesh94:

[MENTION=3999488]MaR-V-iN[/MENTION] microG is the one the best thing. Hope it grows to give android REAL freedom.

Wish more ROM developers adopt it by default. May be decouple it more to provide standard API's for custom providers(store,location ..etc).

On my locked mtk devices, i used microG with virtualXposed with xprivacy
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Could you please link it? I've only found issues related to a particular app, not a general Maps API issue as it seems the case to me. Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] friwave:
First of all, thank you for your work dev !

I've just a few problems with MicroG on my Mi5S, Syberia OS, Android 9.0. Indeed, some apps are working correctly but saying at launch "[App name] doesn't work without Google Play Services which are not compatible with your device". Moreover, Google Drive and Docs just cannot be launched and have the same error message.

What could I do ?
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Look into microG self check. Most probably you don't have signature spoofing enabled. Does your ROM allow that?
[Android Apps and Games] thisisarjun:
How to sync the contacts using micro g ??
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
Either this or no Play Store or Fake Store installed, which triggers the same, vague, message.
[Android Apps and Games] friwave:
All is check except Phonesky and localization (but UnifiedNLP encounter some matters like he's not detected as installed even after a reboot). Installing FakeStore or not doesn't change something.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
You have to grant spoofing permission for fakestore as well. If you need NLP, the microG app has to be system app. That's best done with an installer zip.
[Android Apps and Games] friwave:
For the installer, I've tried an unnofficial one (didn't find official) but it making an eternal boot :crying:

Édit: thank you very much for your help !!! I can use google drive and the other apps stopped to send an error message. I'm trying to make localization working.
[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
Look here, you can find DAVdroid on F-Droid. If you have @gmail.com account use that domain instead of @google.com or you'll miss calendar synchronization.
[Android Apps and Games] friwave:
Feedback localization matter : Because i'm not using Gapps, I need to use Networklocation.apk instead of UnifiedNLP. However, Networklocation is saying "application isn't install" and I can't go further.
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
unifiedNlp is already part of microG, so you can't use the standalone one at the same time of course. The standalone version is only for those who neither use GApps nor microG.
[Android Apps and Games] friwave:
OK thx but I still can't use localization. The case "UnifiedNLP is registered to the system" isn't checked despite many reboots and some authorization accorded. I've installed the mozilla backend.
[Android Apps and Games] kurtn:
Yes. There are ROMs where we can't get NLP to register. There is an xposed module that can help. But not yet for pie.
[Android Apps and Games] friwave:
So I will wait Xposed or I will ask to SyberiaOS's dev if they can do something. Ty for your help :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Setialpha:
About Maps issues: may it be related to this?

http://geoawesomeness.com/developers-up-in-arms-over-google-maps-api-insane-price-hike/

I did a quick test and I see a lot log strings regarding auth tokens, so it seems it fails here, thus it can't properly use your Google Account. It also has a log string 'Package [com.google.android.apps.maps] needs Subscription!' which would hint at the above.

That would also explain why other apps using Maps API started failing (if anyone wonders: PokemonGO uses OpenStreetMap instead of Maps since several months already).

So unless someone fixes/updates microG Maps API support, do it like Niantic and use OSMAnd+ from F-Droid.

Or use an old Maps version, as long as that's good to go. But then why use microG, when handing out all your location or travel data and poi to Google anyway?
[Android Apps and Games] xijaw:
try nanodroid with ArrowOS
[Android Apps and Games] updesh94:
You are right, however, people need to use uber, lyft and others which rely on google maps.

IMO the viable solution is to use the web versions of these apps.

[Android Apps and Games] hypern0va:
... which many services do not provide I would add, so this is a major issue which IMHO should have an high priority in microG's development.

If the solution was to just use apps which do not rely on Google services, microG itself would make no sense.

Location is working, as well as a few nlp providers.

However, for some reason Google Maps isn't downloading any maps. It's just grey.

It is getting my location, with a blue arrow, just no actual maps.

I installed Google Maps directly from the Play Store. It's not installed as a system app.

Other apps work correctly, such as osmand.

TWRP doesn't mount the system partition by default.
