LineageOS with F-Droid and no Google Apps
- fxtentacle 6y agoA big thanks to user "doener" for submitting the MicroG project: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25252598 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25252598 I found this LineageOS clone while checking out the author of that MicroG project and it sounds amazing. I'm very happy with LineageOS but sometimes the Google Apps would be a pain. This fork just cleanly replaces GApps with microG and the Play Store with F-Droid. In effect, that seems lime a "power user" LineageOS fork.
- waldfee 6y agoI have used these images for more than a year now, runs perfectly fine. Use Aurora Store (from F-Droid) if you need any Google Play apps installed. Be careful if you rely on SafetyNet, seems to be a pain to get working correctly. If you use the GCM registration, but push notifications just dont work, try this [0], worked for me [0] https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/226#issuecomment-261319725 https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/226#issuecomment-26...
- fxtentacle 6y agoThanks for sharing your experience :) I didn't know about Aurora Store before, despite using F-Droid for a while now.
- mircea 6y agoAny pointers to get SafetyNet to pass?
- waldfee 6y agoSorry, can't help there as I don't need it, therefore never tried to get it to work. I think the microg subreddit [0] is your best bet for pointers [0] https://old.reddit.com/r/MicroG/ https://old.reddit.com/r/MicroG/
