I am also facing contact sync issue. In contacts/ manage accounts whats app is there. Then I login successfully in my google account but it always shows sync is off.

Any help to solve this is appreciated. I have used both zip one by op and otherone that was shared few pages back.

Could not add DavDroid as it says Creating Account failed, no caldav/carddav service found.
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Did you use the instructions for DavDroid from this page (https://shadow53.com/no-gapps/setup-guide/3/#option-3-1-2-using-davdroid) or elsewhere? (Noting that the instructions on that page could be invalidated at any time)

There is no flashable zip for contacts provided by the OP, so I'm not sure which you are talking about (I'm not OP, just a guy with too much time on his hands). If you used my zip though, there have been issues reported with it. If you could provide a logcat taken while trying to get it to sync (i.e. turning sync on and manually syncing), I might be able to find something to help fix the problem, unless it is something that needs to be implemented in microg itself.

Anyone else suddenly having trouble with fake store? I'd been using it without any issues for months and it suddenly started crashing. I restored my phone to a backup i did a couple of months ago hoping it would work but it doesn't, wtf? Maybe Google started banning fake store users?
[Android Apps and Games] Bludwurst:
But the FakeStore doesn't do anything.

You mean BlankStore? Don't use that; use Yalp Store instead, which works fine and dandy.

Yes I have tried to setup using DavDroid web instructions for yahoo & icloud but for google used URL of shadow53 and all file also from same website. Log is attached for DavDroid.

[MENTION=6999754]Anshu_131[/MENTION], when I first setup microG on crDroid awhile back there was a thread for it. In it someone posted instructions for using DAVdroid with Google. Worked/works perfectly. I now use DAVdroid on all gappless ROMs for syncing Google calendar & contacts. Check it out and see if you set it up differently.

Thanks for your help. Zip has placed apk but permission was not granted. After giving permissions contacts has synced. No need to configure DavDroid now. Thanks again.
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Was that the problem, that they did not have permissions granted? If so, I can easily fix that.
[Android Apps and Games] Anshu_131:
I don't know properly but Devdroid was giving error and I shared the log. Contacts was showing WhatsApp contacts only not google one. Now I have flashed crdroid and configuring once again. What the log has said?
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
The log was showing a lot of HTTP 401 errors, which means you weren't authenticated for one of a number of possible reasons:

- You entered your login information incorrectly

- The URL provided in my guide has been invalidated

- Your Google account is set up to either only allow OAUTH2 logins (where the app displays Google's in page) or has 2 Factor Authentication, both of which would require setting up an application password for DavDroid

Anyhow, if granting contacts permissions to contacts sync adapter is what was necessary to make it work, I can add a permissions file to the zip to give it those permissions by default, since I assume someone wants to use the apps if they're installing them. I just wanted to verify that that *is* what you were reporting.
[Android Apps and Games] Anshu_131:
-Checked login details properly.

-Tried to set icloud and Yahoo through Devdroid website url.

Now on crdroid too. Play store is configured but struggling again on contact sync. Sharing screenshot
[Android Apps and Games] Anshu_131:
Contacts synced successfully with out Devdroid. I installed contact sync adaptor apk + 1apk and after giving permission it synced.
[Android Apps and Games] Anshu_131:
Just check and confirm if MicroG self check is as per norms as shown in screenshot.
[Android Apps and Games] marcdw:
[MENTION=6999754]Anshu_131[/MENTION], say, your shots seem to indicate that the ROM has signature spoofing turned on but you did not give permission to microG to use it. If that's the case go to Settings -> Apps -> [cog/gear at upper right] -> Configure Apps -> App Permissions. Heh, I think.

See if permission is granted there.

Ideally you'll want to have all check boxes marked. You do not.

I don't know, maybe things are working good enough but it appears you're not fully configured.

[Android Apps and Games] HTC Dude:
You're right, BlankStore it is. I'd been happily using it for a long time and now it just crashes. I've tried using Yalp Store as you suggested, using the same Google account, and it works perfectly for the moment. Thanks very much for the advice.
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Thanks for clarifying the contacts sync bit.

About the permissions, the issue looks like that MicroG isn't spoofing the Play Services signature like it should be. You can go the long way through app permissions to grant it, but you also may be able to grant the permission by tapping that first unchecked box. If a permissions dialog box pops up, that'll be it.

I haven't used crDroid much, so you may need to enable signature spoofing in general, possibly through the Developer Options. I believe some ROMs have the overall enable switch hidden there.
[Android Apps and Games] Anshu_131:
Latest screenshot

I am now stuck at location. Installed unified NLP, unified NLP legacy and network location apk plus 3 back end apps. What I have dine wrong as Unified NLP self check has many box unticked?
[Android Apps and Games] Bludwurst:
I believe you shouldn't use the standalone UnifiedNLP apks if you have MicroG Core; as the latter has the former built in.

Besides that, some ROMs don't allow for non system apps to be location providers; the fix is to make MicroG core a system app in those cases.

Am I correct?
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
At least on my phone, crDroid requires you enable signature spoofing (Settings->cdDroid Settings->Miscellaneous->Enable Signature Spoofing) and also grant the signature spoofing privilege to microG.

I assume that the crDroid build for other phones is the same as mine.
[Android Apps and Games] Anshu_131:
Location also configured from MicroG. Thanks a lot for bearing with me.

It seems GCM is delayed or does not receive any push notification even if the app is registered., for example TextNow and Outlook. Self check is all good. Is this a common/known issue?

---------- Post added at 08:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:21 PM ----------

I see this sometimes: I don't get some notifications until after I pick up my phone and put it back down. Whether that's what causes it or I just time it badly, I'm not sure. Other times I receive notifications from the same app just fine. Whether it's common or not, I can't say.

IIRC, it's possible that the delay is related to the heartbeat value in MicroG settings...

Hi guys. Apologies if this has been covered but thread search didn't yeild much. I'm getting a Gear S2 soon and I'm wondering if the required Samsung Gear app is going to play nice with microG. I was pleasantly suprised when I could redeem Google play card so I'm optimistic. Anyone know it the Samsung account works with microG? Thanks all.
[Android Apps and Games] ghl456:
Thnx, will try
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Last I checked, android wear support has not been implemented. So if Samsung Gear requires that, you won't be able to sync with your phone. Here's a couple related GitHub issues that relate, however:

https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/issues/4

https://github.com/Freeyourgadget/Gadgetbridge/issues/158

The second is a nice read for understanding what needs to be implemented

Hello all. Sadly, I think I have to go back to gapps for my newly acquired Moto 360 to work right. If anyone knows an alternative please let me know.

[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
You could probably uninstall and dirty flash gapps, but I'm making no guarantees. I'd probably make backups of what you need to, try it, then clean install if it fails.

Google Play Store Auto-Update

While writing this post, I realised that the Play Store was auto-updated from "Google Play Store 7.5.08.M-all [0] [PR] 146162341" to "Google Play Store 7.6.08.N-all [0] [PR] 149245622"!

[Android Apps and Games] rookey:
I would like to go MicroG ( https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3t/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3547024/ ) but still have a few concerns.

a) I'm really kinda dependent on Google calendar, which has stored all my appointments since years (and years to come).

b) my phonebook: 2 accounts with about 1,400 contacts altogether.

c) a few apps I bought via Playstore. Nothing crucial, but still: TitaniumBackup, Nova Launcher and a few games.

a) and b): are there good replacements that would allow me to import/export all my contacts and calendar data (and then export all that again in regular intervals, just in case)?

Actually, it may be easier to just continue using Google Calendar and Contacts - is that possible?

c) I guess I'll have to forget about my paid licenses?
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
(a) and (b): see this page:

https://shadow53.com/no-gapps/setup-guide/3/

Note: I've received some reports that sync doesn't work with my flashable zip. You may have to manually give permissions to the sync adapters if you use that route as described in the link.

(c) you can use the official Play Store client with microG and it supports paid apps with license checks:

https://shadow53.com/no-gapps/setup-guide/2/#option-2-1-the-google-play-store-microg

You can download flashable zips related to both from:

https://shadow53.com/no-gapps/downloads/

Also: you can export calendar and contacts from Google and import them elsewhere, so it's not that bad of a transition between providers
[Android Apps and Games] mrxtc89117:
My contacts and calendar sync. Play Store also works. I use the offical app from gapps. I noticed some apps don't work well with GCM. Either it gets unregistered or don't receive notifications. Outlook does not work for push but bluemail does. TextNow cant receive push but other texting app does.

I also have the nlp Apple backend. Do I really need that or just the Mozilla nlp backend. I also have the GSM location backend which takes a long time to populate.

How did you download play store app?
[Android Apps and Games] Oswald Boelcke:
Maybe this helps? Check the paragraph regarding the Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] justmix4:
It's a very good decision. The only inconvenience will be need to use Tingle at every update to enable signature spoofing but I see the rom from your link is microG-ready so you will not be concerned about it. Personally I'm considering using LineageOS + microG but in LOS I miss a theme engine, their default light theme really hurts my eyes. That's why I still use ROMs based on AOSP which have such support (substratum).
[Android Apps and Games] Stefa.:
Hi all!

I am trying to use microG and I followed all the [MENTION=7126506]Shadow53[/MENTION] website user guide, very nice work!

By the way I am having trouble with the PlayStore.. I have installed the dedicated flashable zip (https://shadow53.com/no-gapps/setup-guide/2/) but I am not able to see the PlayStore from my installed apps, neither from the launcher neither from the "App" settings section.

Any help on this?

Thanks in advance for your cooperation guys!

Update, here my steps:

- Installed the MicroG+PlayStore flashable zip (from shadow53 site)

- Configured microG through MicroG settings

[No Playstore app available]

- I installed the PlayStore.apk (Google Play Store 7.7.17) from apkmirror

- Installed the PlayStore flashable (from shadow53 site)

- PlayStore app is present

- I try to open the PlayStore app and login but after inserting my google account data the app apparently crashed and everytime I open it GooglePlay ask for my google account

- Here I am stuck :(
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Well that's your problem: you installed it three times! :/

What version of Android are you running? I've tested those zips on multiple Nougat ROMs without any issues. Also, the two zips you used install the same Play Store apk to the same location. Without having the answer to the above question, my guess is that you're running an older version of Android that doesn't have the /system/priv-app directory (i.e. KitKat) and that the Play Store you found in the app drawer was the one from apk mirror. If that is the case, you should make it a system app by moving it to /system/app.

I could be wrong, in which case a logcat would be helpful.

Update: Also, does your ROM support signature spoofing, either built in, patched, or with Xposed?
[Android Apps and Games] Stefa.:
You are right! But I proceeded with all this installation because I was not able to show the Google Play app.

I tried to repeat all the operation from a clean install (only one zip flashed this time) but the result was the same.

I am on a OnePlus 3T running the "LOS 14.1" ROM (Nougat 7.1.1) that should be also microG ready :)

Now I reverted back to "GAPPS" ( :( ) because I was running ou of time for today and I needed my phone to work but if I would have time to test it again I will try to provide you a logcat ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Lineage OS does not come with signature spoofing support by default, so it would have to be patched somehow to support microG. Did you go through the microG self-check and make sure everything was checked?
[Android Apps and Games] Stefa.:
Sorry, my fault! I forget to mention that I am running a "customized" version of LOS (here the link: https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3t/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3547024/page115 ) that should be microG ready thanks to the dev work!

That's why as following..

[Android Apps and Games] MichaelZR:
[MENTION=7126506]Shadow53[/MENTION], your pages are very informative. The downloads you are created would be hery helpful, if they would contain the PlayStore.apk. Unfortunately in the present release there only is a zero byte file in the zip files.
[Android Apps and Games] Shadow53:
Thanks for letting me know! Turns out the OpenGapps people like to change the name of the PlayStore apk file each time it gets updated in their repos, so on the last update the old file disappeared. I've updated the URL in the build script and rebuilt, so it should work this time.

[MENTION=4060874]Stefa.[/MENTION] this may be the cause of the problem you were facing. If you'd like, feel free to try the zip again and let me know if it works this time.

Now if I could just get notified when certain files get updated.... *scratches head*

I think you are wrong but maybe I am wrong too... For exemple I am using Strava Cycling. Strava need Maps plus Google Play Services. That mean, if you are on gappsfree ROM, you will not be able to use Strava with just Maps installed, because Strava also need Google Play Service.

So I installed Maps but to make Maps work you have to install Microg. Microg don't provide alternative maps app to use instead of Google Maps. It just provide google play service framework that apps like Strava need.

So if you're using some apps that require Maps, so...install Maps.

What is the app that you trying to use ?
[Android Apps and Games] bilbonotry:
Have you installed maps api v1 ?
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
Bingo on that answer.

There are two different maps APIs that Google has put out. Some apps, even brand new ones, use the old V1 API whilst others use the newer V2 API. To support map drawing on all apps you will need both APIs installed.

The V1 API is supported by a separate flashable ZIP file. One version can be found via a link on the first post of the original nogapps thread. The other through the microG main project page.

The V2 API is implemented by "microG services core" module.

FWIW, both V1 API modules have issues and while a background map and some overlay icons may work there are features that don't. I am not sure which of the two implementations of the V1 API [MENTION=3999488]MaR-V-iN[/MENTION] recommends using.
[Android Apps and Games] ShapeShifter499:
[MENTION=3003389]redj12[/MENTION] I have "microG maps v1 api", microG UnifiedNlp, Mozilla Location, and Nominatim installed. I thought Nominatim provided OpenStreetMaps support.

There I give the proper thanks to the other works job and anyone that help me understand things about microG. Thanks!

(If there's any question about the method, I prefer it to be told in that thread nor this, so I can have better beedback.)
[Android Apps and Games] n76:
UnifiedNlp does not include all the Google services that microG services core includes.

However, I just tried installing Strava and Starbucks apps and both seem to require Google Maps installed, not just support for Maps API V1 or V2. Since I don't have or run run Google apps I don't need, I did not get farther than that. A bit of a shame as there is no good reason for them to make their apps dependent on a specific Google app being installed rather than calling a defined system API.

It would be nice if OsmAnd and/or Maps.me provided the same interface as Google Maps for the apps that don't use the system map APIs. But I think that is out of the scope of this project.
