No Gapps Guide&Tutorial (MicroG)

Hi guys, this is an Tutorial of installing MicroG.
MicroG is an alternative to Gapps that includes:
Service Core: Is a library app, providing the functionality required to run apps that use Google Play Services or Google Maps Android API. (GmsCore)
Services Framework Proxy: Is a small helper utility to allow apps developed for Google Cloud to Device Messaging (C2DM) to use the compatible Google Cloud Messaging service included with GmsCore. (GsfProxy)
Unified Network Location Provider: Is a library that provides Wi-Fi- and Cell-tower-based geolocation to applications that use Google’s network location provider. It is included in GmsCore but can also run independently on most Android systems. (UnifiedNlp)
Maps API: Is a system library, providing the same functionality as now deprecated Google Maps API (v1). (mapsv1)
Store: Is a frontend application providing access to the Google Play Store to download and update applications. (Phonesky) [Same functionality and looks as the Gplaystore]
Why you would want to install MicroG instead of Gapps?
1.More privacy
2.Uses very little ram and memory
3.OGYoutube, an youtube app that works only with MicroG and has backround playback and downloads directly from the app
How to install MicroG:
Prerequisites:
In order for MicroG to work, it needs to pretend to be the official implementation of Play Services. To do this, MicroG must be able to spoof Google’s Play Service’s package signature.
Signature spoofing is not available in most custom ROMs, though patches are available for ROM developers to include in their project. For Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs, spoofing is provided as a runtime permission that the user can grant or deny to apps, which is an added bonus.
If your Rom doesen't include Signature spoofing then you can activate Signature spoofing with: Tingle/Haystack/NanoDroid/FakeGapps[Xposed Module]
First option:
Download Services Core, Service Framework Proxy, UnifiedNpl and FakeStore if you want to install other stores than the Official Google play store. (Yald Store, F-Droid etc) [Download link: https://microg.org/download.html]
Install them. After that go to MicroG settings and click on self-check, give MicroG the permissions required and check "System grants signature spoofing permission" if its not checked. To log in to Phonesky you need to enable Google device registration in microG settings, after that make any changes you want to the settings.
For more Advanced things check out: https://shadow53.com/android/no-gapps/setup-guide/3/ and https://shadow53.com/android/no-gapps/setup-guide/4/
Option two:
Flash MicroG from Recovery

Option three:
Download from https://downloads.nanolx.org/NanoDroid/Stable/
I recommend NanoDroid-MicroG.....zip
Go to Magisk Manager, Go to Modules and add the NanoDroid zip that you like.
Thats it.
Or is it?
How to install OGYoutube:
Install the modified MicroG apk from https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/ogmods/microg-for-ogyt/microg-for-ogyt-0-2-4-81-gb1e98ea-dirty-release/microg-for-ogyt-0-2-4-81-gb1e98ea-dirty-android-apk-download/ (Its made so OGYoutube could work correctly.

[To make more apps work wihout play services, that MicroG doesen't include you can install "This app will run wihout google play services" Xposed Module]
You are DONE!

As i told in the thread.
MicroG is an ALTERNATIVE to Gapps. You don't flash MicroG over Gapps.
So basically uninstall the Gapps and MicroG / Clean flash the Rom.
And after that install NanoDroid-MicroG and NanoDroid-Patcher and enable google device registartion in microG settings.
Good luck. Next time read the thread proprerly

Hi,
I have installed Nanodroid via Magisk on LOS 15.
Signature spoofing is not enabled.
I tried the xposed installer from F-Droid. This did not work. Magisk has a number of xposed modules but I cannot figure out which version to use.
I then flashed nanodroid patcher 17.2. This failed also!
How can I get signature spoofing to work? Thanks!

Hi.
So your Rom is probably odexed.
You will need to use FakeGapps Xposed module.
Just install the Module, enable it from the Xposed app and reboot. Now signature spoofing will work.
If you need any futher help just pm me on Xda or telegram, @Thespartann.
Also if you want to log in into Play Store enable google device registration in MicroG settings.
I recommend you Aurora Store instead of Google Play Store
Good luck.
If i helped press the thanks button

Hi Thespartann!
Thanks for the reply!
So, I got xposed installed. Flashed it in TWRP then in the xposed app I installed it via recovery.
I then eventually installed the FakeGapps app.
Microg gives self check now gives 'System spoofs signature' a tick - it did not before.
Another app 'Signature Spoofing Checker' however says 'Disabled' -???
I was trying to get the emergency/rideshare app 'Cell411' working. Previously it booted up and said play service were required. That message is now gone! Yay - except the map will not load!
So..
In microg there is a check box unchecked -'UnifiedNlp do not have location to test Geocoder'
In configure location backends I have 6 things ticked on.
nb The FOSS weather apps now load faster!
How do I get the map to load in Cell411 (and Uber)??
Am I missing some setting?
re: log in into Play Store enable google device registration in MicroG settings.
I have been using F-droid, Yalp and Aptoide. Will enabling device registration give me any functionality for maps?
I have not heard of Aurora! I will have to check that out!
What of google cloud messaging and SafetyNet - do I need those for any reason - map related or otherwise? ps I am trying to avoid all google service, foremost for privacy and secondarily for FLOSS reasons.
Thank you!

Hey again
From what I know google cloud messaging is for receiving notifications from some apps.
SafetyNet is so you can pass safety net
Google device registration is so you can log in to Youtube/Calendar/Play Store etc with your google account.
None of these three is enabled by default so no need to worry
Well, I never dived on how to use Maps, because I never needed to use Maps
Some apps may require you to have FakeStore, that's an app so other apps think you have Google Play installed (You might have to install FakeStore as a system app)
I will do my research these days and also highly update this thread with useful information.
As why Signature Spoofing Checker shows you you don't have signature spoofing, that may be because the framework still doesn't have signature spoofing, and the module FakeGapps just did some tricks, without modifying the Framework.

Still can't post in the NO GAPPS telegram?|
Can somebody help me out hear? I joined about two weeks ago and am still blocked from posting.
I really need help as every time I try and install MicroG (Non-root, P30 Pro) I get the app not installed error.
Can someone lead me in the right direction and if there are any telegram admins in here Go NO GAPPS/NO GAPPS can you please unrestrict my access. My username is nightravels.

Just clear cache and data of playstore app and hide it using magisk hide and pass safety net

On Aex 5.5, I simply downgraded my play services app to march build. Works like a charm now.

1. Downgrade Google Play Services (Remove app from device administrators and use link2sd to uninstall)
2. Force Stop and Clear Data for Tez and Play Store
3. In Magisk hide Tez, PlayStore and Google Services Framework, Google Services Library
4. Pass the SafetyNet in Magisk
5. Reboot to get the device certified in Google Play Store
Now the App should work fine.
Worked on AEX 5.4

I have a simple solution
https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-zuk-z2/how-to/solution-tez-app-fix-rooted-phones-t3793417
In short -
Just hide Tez in magisk and then go to settings -> apps -> Google Play Services -> Permissions -> and then disable Telephone access.
Now register on Tez again.
We can again enable the Telephone permission, but remember to disable it before opening Tez.

Unlocked bootloader + root = no Google Pay ?

Hi,
I've switched to xiaomi.eu rom and installed Magisk. Unfortunately Google Pay doesn't work anymore. Same thing for one of my banking app that doesn't allow me to use fingerprint to authenticate :crying:
Everything worked fine with the stock rom and locked bootloader.
I tried to use Magisk hide for Google Pay and my banking app with no success.
Also tried "SafetyPatch" Magisk module and it still fails.
SafetyNet test in Magisk is successful so I have no idea what can be the problem ?

I think there is a solution. I found it at Polish forum. I translated it with google. Should be good enough to know what to do. I didn't test it yet. I need to wait for BL unlock.
We install Magisk - Magisk Canary (.apk file). With Magisk Manager, we download the latest .zip Magiska and install it in TWRP.
Go to Magisk> Magisk Hide and select Google Pay , Google Play Services and other banking applications .
In the Google Pay app settings, we're cleaning data and cache (Settings -> Applications -> Management -> Google Pay).
Go to TWRP -> Advanced (Advanced) -> File manager .
Go to file: /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db
We click chmod , enter 440 and confirm.
We run the system (reboot system) and configure Google Pay . After correct addition of the card and verification by the bank, we should be able to pay with NFC.

Thanks a lot! It worked for me too on my Mi9 with xiaomi.eu !

Did You change wallet type in settings for "Use HCE"? It won't work without that.

Huge thanks guys Google Pay is now working :good:

Like the other post said you have to enable HCE Wallet. And also have a look if Google Pay has the right permissions like using NFC. After I did all that it started to work like a charm.

is Google Pay still working with this fix ?
I know that even if it works for some time it will stop working after few days ...
Cheers,

It's still working for me.

How does this issue show itself?
I've been using the xiaomi.eu weekly with Magisk and MagiskHide Props Config add on, and was able to activate Google Pay (haven't used it yet, that's why I'm asking), and use my banking apps.

Installing games with OnePlus 8 Pro

Hi XDA,
Phone: OnePlus One Pro 8
Model: IN2025
OS: Oxygen OS 11.IN11AA
Magisk:1469b82a (21101)
I recently rooted my phone and it works quite well, I have used Magisk Hide to 'hide root from my banking apps', it works so does NFC and google pay.
I hide the following service through magisk hide: (Banks, Google Play Game, Google Play Services, an authenticator (Duo Mobile))
1) However, I don't seem to be able to install some games from google playstore, namely : Eve Echoes, World of Warships, Warpath ..all of them download but give the error "Can't install, try again"
Is there a work around?
2) On a side note: is apkpure a trusted website (they seem to have APKs for everything)?
Thank you!
Cheers,
DV

I'm not sure about why google play won't work, probably you can try to wipe data and cache of the Google Play services and google play store and maybe that would work?
I have the apkpure app and it works beautifully, it updates my apps and games faster than the app store and even beta version you can find there. I mainly use apkpure so I can download games and apps that are "not available in my region"

Can I ask, have you got the dreaded lucky patcher installed?
If not then might be time to clear down play services, play store, play games etc, sign out - sign in
Try pushing the game by saying you want to install it via the web.
Go here and sign in, then find the game, choose your phone and itll push to your device, don't let the play store open the link
https://play.google.com/store
What modules do you have installed??

The only thing I have installed is systemless. I tried installing magiskhide props config to see if it helped; it did not, so I uninstalled it.
On the web, it says 'installed', but it isn't.
EDIT: I tried with another gmail account, reinstalling google play games.
Other online games such as Clash of Clans seem to work, so does Among Us and Genshin Impact.
The ones that don't work that I have tried: Eve Echoes, WarPath and World of Warships < All of these show up as installed on the web (but aren't installed on any android device that I own).
Eve Echoes downloads starts installing and gives the error unable to install.
Can some one who is rooted try if these games will work.
ok, one more interesting update: Netflix app seems to work, I thought it shouldn't work on rooted phones.

Ill try them, see what I get, not my types of games but sure np.
Must have detected root.
I think it's the game detecting it, not your system. Or Google play won't allow the installation if you're rooted on those games.
I'll try them now.

Seems to be working for me..that's warpath.. Installed then verified in game. I have play protect off

This is my version of magisk on canary.
Edit: Image uploads not working on the app.
It's version 1469b82a

You could maybe change to canary then update, will need to repatch and update magisk manager. It's easy, no need for ADB

Just so that I have understood it correctly,
Step 1: Set channel to Canary,
Step 2: Update Magisk and Manager to whatever is latest
Step 3: move the magisk_patched file to my downloads folder
Umm..what do you mean by repatch and update magisk ?
Sorry

Head back to the normal magisk screen.
You'll see two install/update buttons
Top is magisk
Bottom is magisk manager
Update the manager, it'll download,, then click install.
Next click magisk then install directly
Reboot and you're done .
PS: have your original magisk patched img ready just in case but I've done this a LOT and have never had an issue, so you'll be fine.

One quick question, should I disable magisk hide (settings) and systemlesshosts before doing this ?
EDIT:
a) ok so I tried this, I disabled the magisk hide before attempting this, it detected my magiskpatch during direct install. When the phone rebooted things were a bit slow and my internet was not working. Another reboot and everything was fast again, but no luck with Warpath.
b) Tried to clear cache and storage for playstore and google play games. Shutdown the phone, started it again.
No luck.
c) I downloaded APKPure to try and download 'Warpath', it downloaded but would not proceed with installation., I had to manually click install APK.>The game starts and asks to download additional files..., files are downloaded and it fails to install.
In the grand scheme of things it would be great if I could install everything, I can get by with not installing these games. I fear that this might an issue with others apps as well although so far I have not encountered any problems.
Any other things I could try ?
2) On another note, I wanted to know how I could backup my active partition (just incase I want to try things and something breaks).
3) This might not be related at all, I noticed that my root folder (using solid explorer) shows 0B free of 1.42 GB. Is this normal that the root folder is completely full ?
Thanks!
Cheers,

Thanks !
One quick question, should I disable magisk hide (settings) and systemlesshosts before doing this ?
EDIT:
a) ok so I tried this, I disabled the magisk hide before attempting this, it detected my magiskpatch during direct install. When the phone rebooted things were a bit slow and my internet was not working. Another reboot and everything was fast again, but no luck with Warpath.
b) Tried to clear cache and storage for playstore and google play games. Shutdown the phone, started it again.
No luck.
c) I downloaded APKPure to try and download 'Warpath', it downloaded but would not proceed with installation., I had to manually click install APK.>The game starts and asks to download additional files..., files are downloaded and it fails to install.
In the grand scheme of things it would be great if I could install everything, I can get by with not installing these games. I fear that this might an issue with others apps as well although so far I have not encountered any problems.
Any other things I could try ?
2) On another note, I wanted to know how I could backup my active partition (just incase I want to try things and something breaks).
3) This might not be related at all, I noticed that my root folder (using solid explorer) shows 0B free of 1.42 GB. Is this normal that the root folder is completely full ?
Thanks!
Cheers,
DV

Yes it's tthat's similar to mine. It's possible that that's the problem but I've not witnessed that before, maybe it is the problem.
Ok so it seems were running low on fixes here..it's almost certainly a permissions issue, maybe the system space? I'm guessing!
Have you tried to mount namespace??
Did you hide magisk manager? Unhide it. Btw I don't mean magisk hide I mean the manager, then reboot.
I'm not sure if there is a way to reset all permissions to apps including Android system apps but that would be my next step.
Beyond that, remove modules and wipe system in recovery, it'll be you're system, apps, settings, but storage will remain, it's what I do if I need to start over as system is where 90% of issues reside.. You will need to fastboot boot the magisk patched img then directly install after.
If it's not that then it's a deeper problem and even though it's just a few games at the moment it won't fix itself, so without a tonne of troubleshooting then it'll be MSM or full zip restoring. Probably MSM though as you'll get fresh everything.

Hang on your internet didn't work??
That's a sign that you're using a boot.img from the previous firmware??
That could be the problem. Re download you're firmware using oxygen updater mate.
Open settings /advanced
Then download the full zip.

Do you mind linking the APKpure app here please. My guess is that I have to side load it.?

Apologies for not being clear.
My wifi was connected there was just no data transfer.
The only magisk patch I have is from the large file that the phone/oxygen OS downloaded to get me OS 11. You helped me on my other thread.

[GUIDE] Google Play Store on rooted Fire TV (Systemless / microG)

The instructions below reflect the process I followed to install the Google Play Store on my Fire TV Stick 3 (sheldonp) which I have been using for a month now. To be clear, I am not responsible for anything that happens to your device as a result of following this guide.
If you already have knowledge of the process, then it is simply setting up microG Istaller Revived with the Android TV Google Play Store.
If you are new to this, then the entire process is explained below. It is assumed that the Fire TV is already rooted and has Magisk installed.
Download the following and transfer the files to the Fire TV using adb, file transfer apps or a file manager with LAN/Cloud access.
LSPosed
FakeGApps
Google Play Store (Android TV)
microG Installer Revived
LSPosed is available in two variants as of now, but the Zygisk one is considered to be the way forward. So, in case you are using the Zygisk release, then you need to enable Zygisk from Magisk settings as well.
Go to the Modules section of Magisk and select ‘Install from storage’, following which, choose the LSPosed zip. This step was tricky for me because it opens the DocumentsUI for selection, which doesn’t quite work with the remote. I used a wired mouse with OTG, but that too was quite wonky. Eventually, I managed to enable ‘Show internal storage’ from the right-hand menu and then internal storage from the left-hand menu. The good news is that once you select a folder and module, then the same folder always remains open in DocumentsUI, making future module installations easier. Reboot as required.
It is most likely that you will not see the LSPosed app on your homescreen, so navigate to /data/adb/lspd using a root file manager or adb and install the manager.apk file present in that folder to get the LSPosed app on the homescreen.
Install the FakeGapps apk and enable the module from within the LSPosed app.
Rename the Android TV Play Store downloaded earlier to Phonesky.apk and copy it to /data/adb using a root file manager or adb.
Install the microg Installer Revived module from within Magisk and reboot when prompted.
After reboot, you should see the Google Play Store icon in your app drawer. Open it, choose sign-in, after which it will redirect you to the Google web login process through microG.
That’s it! You should now have a fully functional Play Store on the Fire TV.
Bonus: Some specific apps from the Play Store fail to invoke the Amazon keyboard for input fields. In that case, you can download a keyboard from the Play Store and make it the default one. I did so for Gboard installed from the Play Store and the command to do so was as follows:
Code:
ime list
ime enable com.google.android.inputmethod.latin/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME
ime set com.google.android.inputmethod.latin/com.android.inputmethod.latin.LatinIME

Hello!
I don't see the Play Store app in the drawer even after placing the Phonesky.apk at /data/adb. I only see the Microg Revived app that I installed via Magisk

If during the microG Installer Revived installation you see "Installing real Play Store", then it means the store was installed properly.
I have been using the FireTV Leanback Launcher since day 1 since I absolutely hate the KFTV launcher interface which also happens to not display all sideloaded apps. Not sure if you are using the default launcher then.

Thank you for the procedure, I can now use application which needs google services.
But I can't use google play store because I can't log in. Every time I enter my login, I become back to begening of login procedure. Is there is something I should do ? Thanks

I ran into the same problem. Every time I entered my email address microG's Login Activity would crash. What fixed this for me was downgrading to an older version of microG. Now I'm using the version packaged with microG Installer Revived v2.4.0, and have had no issues logging in. If you're using v20.4 Magisk Manager then this the version available to download straight from the app.
