Auto Brightness

Hi guys,

Is there any Rom/Kernel that handles the auto Brightness correctly ?

It's incredible how bad it's handled by default (very very low )

Sorry Guys, didn't want to write that here. :(
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Will apps work that check if the app was bought when I'm logged into that google account on microG?

And is there a way to install the play store since I can't login with Yalp Store into my google account?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wishmasterflo:
You can login with Yalp Store to your Google account to download your bought apps as far as I know.

Yalp Store -> Accounts -> New account enter you Google account credentials and try.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I'll definitely have to check that!

But the main part of my question is the following: When an app checks if the app was bought and I'm logged in into that google account which bought the app will I be able to use that app with microG?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wishmasterflo:
What I read about that from my understanding it should be possible to download and use bought apps from the App Store (Yalp Store) with microg.

I am not using microg yet but will give it a try and test it out soon. :)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I wanted to try it out in the future, too. If you have any experience than, it would be nice if you can report it :)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
The license check might not work but it's possible to install a modded play store as well. Check nanodroid's thread for that. It's very easy if you're using nanodroid.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Hey guys,

I'm not able to get a location with any app. I tested it with OsmAnd & the Google Maps version you linked above. I also attached a screenshot of the microG output of the location section. Would be nice if anybody can help me here with this problem ^^

EDIT: I'm using Havoc OS.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] refai:
Go to MicroG ---- UnifiedNLP settings and turn on both backends and give a try it will work.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Never tried Havoc. However, you can try extras that I just added to the main thread:

It might fix your issues. :)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
I'm just seeing one backend there: Deja Vu

---------- Post added at 06:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 AM ----------

I think this must be a microG issue and not a Havoc issue because I used Havoc with gapps before and the location worked fine
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Well install other backends.

MicroG works fine there are thousands of users lol. It might be a compatibility issue in between microG and Havoc that's what I meant.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
So, for everyone struggling with this part: This is how I fixed my location issues

First of all, check if your location mode is set to "High accuracy". For me, when this was set to "Sensors only", the device hasn't used the network location services and/or other location backends.

I also installed the following location backends and configured them (configuring them is quite easy, you can do it by yourself):

Deja Vu

Local GSM

Local WiFi

Mozilla

After I had installed and configured that stuff, everything worked fine for me and the location results were quite accurate.

Hopefully this will help someone :good:
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wishmasterflo:
Have clean flashed my Oneplus 6 today with OxygenOS 9.0.5 and Syberia OS latest Update from today 27-04-2019 .

Have installed MicroG via TWRP.

Signature Spoofing is working with SyberiaOS.

I gave permissions to PlayStore and after a reboot I installed and configured the Unifiednlp backends:

DejaVu

GSM

Mozilla Location Service

Then a reboot again and checked the status in MicroG.

The only things that are not checked is the Unifiednlp registered in System and System supports location provider.

I dont find what I have missed now?

Do I need to grant more pernissions to something?

But GPS is working. I get my location. Tried with Mapquest, Waze, and c:geo .

All apps are showing my location correctly so I wonder now what does it mean that Unifiednlp is not registered in system in Microg.

What exactly is not working now when that is not registered?

Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
It basically means unifiednlp is not used. Your phone is using Qualcomm location and that's fine. Its the same on every ROM on this device so you didn't do anything wrong.

It's just that microG isn't 100% compatible with Pie/this device.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wishmasterflo:
OK got it. Thanks a lot for the explaination.

Looks good so far, most of the thins seems to work as normal.

I recognized that some apps are behaving a bit strange and some things are crashing but not quite sure if this has something to do with MicroG or the ROM (but since all this was working fine before I re-installed my Device with MicroG I guess that it can be due to MicroG).

For example in the Outlook app when I want to open an appointment in there Outlook is just closing down.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wishmasterflo:
In the instructions is mentioned that I need to hide DroidGuardHelper in Magisk hide but I dont see that in Magisk Hide. Why?

Or do I need to install something more?

Where is the folder located with the Nanodroid setup config file?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Geoz:
I tried with Omni but since gapps is not installed it boots to recovery. Followed instructions as described.

Am I missing something?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
1) top right : select "show system apps"

2) You can get the file from inside the .zip or you can also create it yourself. It needs to be placed at the root of the sdcard (/storage/emulated/0 or /data/media/0 , it's the same)

You need to use 20.6 with Omni until 20.8 is released. A small mistake from the nanodroid's dev.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Geoz:
Thanks for clarification, I'll update you on the progress.

Edit: Nandroid-MicroG last I can find is 20.7.

Edit2: Liquid-remix seems to be fine though minor problems with microG lacking MozillaNlpBackend but installed from fdroid and seems to be fine.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Check the archive folder.

Didn't Pass safetynet , no droid helper to hide. Is it normal?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Wishmasterflo:
For me Safetynet passes when checking in Magisk.

The Droidhelper to hide is in Magisk-Hide and then tick the "show System apps" option yo see it.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Geoz:
Already checked but can't see it. One more thing, I'm on LiquidRemix USB/OTG, Ambient and many others from LiquidLounge greyed out and can't be selected.

Just installed the latest Nanodroid MicroG Version and I see that some bugs I had before (like Outlook was crashing when opening appointments and some app had some issues to find GPS signal) are working fine now. :)

With NanoDroid-microG-20.8.20190504.zip latest update is working fine without any issues but they have included the Aurora store in the update and it's asking Google account to login, it's annoying, anyway I can remove that app? I'm using Yalp store it's perfect.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Geoz:
Just flashed without Aurora . There's however Google accounts management added
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
You can edit the config file (read instructions) to not get aurora but yalp instead.

However with aurora you don't have to log in. You need to press on "switch account" and then you'll be able to log in "anonymously"
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
But where? I cant seem to find any instructions on the config what so ever. I must be blind or something.

I too want yalp instead of aurora store. Havent updated to 20.8 yet, but neither was included in 20.7.96 beta.

Edit: nevermind, I found it..

Had a hard time to find it too. Here is the link: https://github.com/Nanolx/NanoDroid/blob/master/doc/AlterInstallation.md

Everything should be explained there, if it is not clear ask.

Thank you all guys
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Yes I will add it.

20.8 works perfectly I recommend it on any ROM.

EDIT:

Added.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex1911:
Hi Guys, is there a possibility to still use the play services and with microg where microg is more like an plugin/addon ?

example: Play Services are for some tasks allowed (for example license verifing, could services, etc.) and some like geolocation/location-tracking blocked where microg is taking over ?

another idea would be to just only prevent play services of different tasks for examaple telemetry for "locking" the Play services out of or faking the connection-status so the Device seems like in Airplane-mode.

Is this somehow possible in some way or am i missing something ?

Best Regard's

Alex1911
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Impossible. MicroG replaces play services. They have the same name. Just stick to play services if your can't live without them.

But for example you web sill use paid apps if you install play store.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Has someone here been able to get microG settings into work profile on syberia? Just switched today, and I cant even find the settings app in the list, so I can clone it into shelter. I had no issues with this on Omnirom though..

I want to be able to recieve notifications on my apps on my work profile, but as of now, I wont be able to..

Sorry for bothering you, but I'm having an issue with push notification tester. I never pass the Play Services installed check, if I try to use fake store and yalp store(I am able to pass if I installed the playstore). I tried 20.8 and 21.0, but the problem persists.

I hope you guys can help me

Edit: Got it, I had to download and install the fake store separately.

Hi Guys, today I was notified by the Aurora store that, MicroG services Core update and when I see the package inside it's Google play services LLC instead, however I don't remember that I have updated it before with Yalp because always relaying in Nonodroid. Should I updated this?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
You use signature spoofing to make your system think that microG is Play Services. So Yalp/Aurora is trying to make you update Play Services. Obviously you can't (you can check versioning, you will see you'd go from 0.2 to 17!). Basically you need to blacklist the app because you can't update it like this. You can update it either with Nanodroid or with F-droid if you add microG/nanodroid repositories.

Hi

I am trying to setup microG on my OP6

I clean flashed omni-9-20190609-oneplus6-WEEKLY.zip and NanoDroid-microG-21.0.20190601.zip (as per the instructions - but I didn't make a config file for nanodroid)

I have given all the permissions, however it still shows in the YouTube app that Google play services isn't installed

(In the self check permissions it is tick marked)

Also, play store phonesky has correct signature, isn't/cant be tick marked

I read by not making a config file the nanodroid installs as nanodroid_microg=1 nanodroid_gmscore=0

(custom installation)

(Should I make a config file & keep nanodroid_gmscore=1)

I have been reading for solutions but don't know what to do

Plz help [pics wont upload :( ]

Hi, thanks it now works (dumb mistake :( )

But now I am not able to open substratum & several apps (Nova launcher, carrier apps requiring google play services & Telegram, YouTube vanced works though)

(I have already applied the overlays from theme Pitchblack substratum pie)

Clearing data for these apps doesn't work

I am using play store now but it was the same for fake store as well

I have created a config file .nanodroid-setup with the following code

nanodroid_microg=1

nanodroid_gmscore=0

nanodroid_play=10

nanodroid_overlay=0

nanodroid_mapsv1=1

nanodroid_gsync=0

nanodroid_swipe=0

nanodroid_fdroid=0

nanodroid_apps=0

nanodroid_zelda=0

nanodroid_init=1

nanodroid_bash=1

nanodroid_nano=1

nanodroid_utils=1

nanodroid_fonts=0

nanodroid_override=0

Location is /data/media/0 (as per instructions)

During twrp installation it shows

Config | Nanodroid-setup | /data/media/0

But I am still getting

Config | nanodroid-overlay | fallback

(I created a smaller microG version for .nanodroid-setup as per the github instructions but it reverts to the above code after installation)

Uninstalling Nanodroids fixes the problem but I m left with no GP sevices

Moreover if I try to apply overlays after nanodroid-overlay install it fails in substratum

I m using substratum beta 998 as all other versions don't work

Uninstalling overlays & then installing nanodroid doesn't do anything

I dunno what to do

Plz help

Are you the one that built it? Indeed that's more diversity and that's good. Maybe it will help people to skip the complicated steps.

It's based on official LOS for OP6?

I'm currently very happy with omni so I won't try it anytime soon. But that might help me to give LOS another try.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
For your contacts, you need google sync. Nanodroid installer offers it for example. I don't know if you can install it by itself but you have to look for that.

Regarding play games, I'm not sure it's compatible.

But you shouldn't use all this crap if you're interested in microG/privacy...

I just tried with a fresh installation of LineageOS 16.0 for MicroG + latest Magisk on my OnePlus 6, installed DroidGuard using F-Droid (I didn't manage to copy it to /system/priv-app though), DroidGuard is selected in Magisk Hide, and the SafetyNet test fails (ctsProfile: false & basicIntegrity: false). Obviously my Internet bank app fails to start.

Found this issue on github: SafetyNet now fails again #24

So is it true? No solution for SafetyNet to pass right now?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Yes, safety net is broken and I don't know if we can expect a fix. Just avoid apps that use it anyway.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Master One:
Damned, that's really bad. Unfortunately I can not avoid the Internet banking app (PushTAN) and I didn't want to use a second phone for that. Looks like I'm out of options (again).
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
Well, it's up to you, but we've lived for 10000 years without banking apps and we survived. I don't use any and I'm fine too. Usually it's possible to validate purchases just with a code you get from a SMS.

And to control you're expenses I'm sure your bank has a website...
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Master One:
I wish it would be that easy, but my (German) banks only supports signing transactions by using their PushTAN or photoTAN apps, so I'm really stuck with this. Last time I played around with microG sometime in February I could get it to work, but now with SafetyNet broken :(

Hello,

I just flash the new lineage microg , and everything works.

But safety net is broken when i made test with "safetynet tset". I use some french banking app and all works with NFC mobile paiement.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Geoz:
Just hide the bank app in magisk, even though safetynet fails all works fine here.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tomatot-:
And yes, it's still safe to use nfc payment (even though it's a huge privacy issue), as long as you don't have crap on your phone... So you never know, if you're not careful, it's not necessarily safe, it's impossible to affirm that but I'd say it's reasonably safe.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Master One:
Oh wow, it works without SafetyNet! No idea how I have though that my banking and PushTAN apps require SafetyNet, all it takes is some Magisk Hide magic. :)

Is there an up-to-date list somewhere that shows which apps require SafetyNet to work?
