Google Service Framework after the fact Lineage 16 - LineageOS Questions & Answers

I have a Moto X4 Android One XT1900.1 and absolutely had it with Google. In a whim I decided not in install any Google Apps when I did my install. Not knowing that some apps were not going to work without Google Service Framework now I need to fix this this. I'm fine without Google Apps but I'd like to be able to run Authy and my Bitcoin wallet and they require GSF. Please help.

Heard about microG? Nanodroid is a good installer for that.

Gionee M2017 and gapps

I recently acquired a Gionee M2017 and have been unable to install gapps apks or root the device. There is access to sign in to the google account which indirectly grants a portal to the main google apps including mail, calendar etc. It appears gionee has not granted support to google play services. It is possible to download apps from third party app sites though. Attempts at rooting have been unsuccessful internally with downloaded apps or with PC synchronization via USB debugging. Any suggestions or possibly I will need to wait until gionee sponsors a GMS core app or device can be rooted and flashed.

For more information the methods of rooting tried included: 360 root, king root, kingo root, one click root, v root, z4 root, framaroot, root master (iroot), root genius. here possible on device and rooting apps that allow PC synchronization. It allows developer option of unlocking bootloader but no effect on downloading gapps or rooting.

With the new amigo OS update you can now install and run google play services. Still some bugs...google contact sync stops working and you cannot access google contacts or gmail.
Gionee m2017
Bugs fixed all Google apps work. Choose always allow read contacts and always allow location in app permissions.

I have uploaded videos to you tube with instructions
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=thGtYBo16p4
This is only valid for Gionee M2017 after Amigo OS is updated.
General principle is to install google services framework 6.01 (available APK mirror), followed by google contact sync 6.01, google calendar sync, google play services 10.2.99 (440), google play store.
The downloads are available https://www.apkmirror.com/
Ohhh I am so so thankful. I can't believe I am using it. I was about to throw this phone away as it was becoming useless.
You just made my year.

hi , recent updates of google play services crashes the google apps in gione m2017, i managed to download and instal older version of google play services, but once it is opened its updating itself to newest version and crashes again.
any solutions?
how do i stop it from self updating? should i waite for another version to come?
tried to root but cant find any root apps to support gionee m2017
thanks
I have not experienced that problem with my gionee m2017. I am using version 8.0.73 without any problems. It is difficult to conclude if the problem is in your app settings or the signature of your updated version. You can try to delete it and install from third party site like app China. Other option choose older version from apk mirror site. Last option would be to reinstall google play services and possibly framework for 6.0.

my gionee is running on amigo os 3.5.11 (m2017 release version) android 6.0.1, could you tell me what version of google apps are installed in your device?
i will download and instal them as well from apkmirror.com
i have reseted my phone to factory details, i want to reinstall Gapss. maybe it will help.
thanks for your reply
I provided my version of play store in the last thread. Google play services 11.0.55. I have the same amigo OS version and android version. If you already reset to factory version then the other trouble shooting for app fixes are moot. Reinstalling gapps should restore functionality.

reinstalling solves the problem partialy.
everything works fine untill google play services updates itself automatically to version 11.3.02 then it stops working.
That is bizarre. I have no suggested fix for that.
There are two ways to install gapps through Chinese installer or sequential installation apk mirror.

should have bought Samsung ok thanks ill waite for another update to google services maybe it will solve ..
After you open play store first time go settings auto update stop updates. Gionee M 2017 is not certified under settings which means occasionally apps will misbehave. There are a lot of third party app sites as well.

Help installing Google Maps only on LineageOS/MicroG bundle

Hi, I am new to modding but have managed to install LineageOS bundled with MicroG onto my Moto G (2015) (LineageOS 'osprey' build).
I now want to install Google Maps only via the least painful method with the absolute minimum contact with the Google ecosystem.
I tried OpenGApps but it seems to have a lot of crud that I don't want. I tried installing Playmaker via TWRP but it said the zip file was an 'invalid zip format'.
Is there any method directly via an apk or some such or will I have to use a repository of some kind? In either case could someone please advise on the best way to proceed?
Thanks kindly in advance!

Thanks very much fella, went with Yalp, works a charm!
Someone else has the problem of gyroscope \ wrong direction with gmaps and microG?
Lol.
Dont use microg.
Dont use gapps.
Dont use google maps.
Open your webbrowser (preffer bromite) and then go to google.maps.com or whatever the site is...
No need to install things that can also be accessed via a browser...
Open Street Maps (osmand) is opensource and excellent. All maps are downloaded locally and as long as you have a GPS fix, it works without a cell connection. (assuming you have the maps). The database (addresses) is not as refined as others but works well and avoids using G and F.
https://osmand.net/
Of course they have G and Amazon app store links. Avoid that, if you contact them they might give you a download link for their apk after payment on amazon. Did not have to install the Amazon app store, just used them for payment.
Open street maps also has a website.
https://www.openstreetmap.org/
@Privacydroid is right-on, don't install apps you have not examined for their network activity. Especially if you can access on a browser (some of which can be configured to block useless domains).

Couple of questions about Pixelizing Xiaomi Mi 6

Hi All, I purchased my Mi 6 like half a year ago, and I asked some questions with regards to this device back then (reference: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-6/help/xiaomi-user-issues-actual-issues-t3703112 ) . I then gave up for some time, but would like to revisit some of my initial issues with the device.
DISCLAIMER: I am not very knowledgable on Xiaomi stuff, this is my first phone from them. I owned it for around six months and I still didn't root it... I just didn't see any _worthy_ rom to be installed. Please bear in mind, that although I am technically savvy and rooted all my previous phones always, I might sound as a total noob here since I didn't follow the scene very much.
At present, I have requested the unlock with Xiaomi, and they granted me the possibility to root the phone, but I haven't done so yet.
I am thus running on stock MIUI 9.5.6.0.(OCAMIFA). The Android is 8.0.0. OPR1.170623.027.
What I would like to achieve, is to get my Mi6 as close to current Pixel devices as possible. I understand that I could purchase the Pixel phone in the first place, but the price tag on them is too high..
(I am mostly interested in having the most recent version of Assistant available on my Xiaomi, and Pixel UI instead of MIUI)
I am unable to install Google Phone.
When I visit google store from PC, I can search for Google Phone, but can't install it. https://i.imgur.com/21fh9hq.png (and the reason why it's not compatible is not being disclosed). If I search google play store from the device itself, the app isn't even listed in the results. If I download any version of the Android Dialer app from APKMirror, and try to install - the installation would start, and then fail with a single message (App not installed https://i.imgur.com/gOolw3H.png ). I tried ARM, ARM64, both in NODPI and other DPIs, also, I tried app versions 19.0... and 20.0... from https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-phone/ . Always getting the same error.
What's interesting, is that I was able to install Google Messages, Google Contacts and any other google app without any problems, but I can't install the Phone app from google. I have also been able to install rootles-pixel-launcher from APK
I am left with the phone app from xiaomi, which is not integrated with Google Message / Contacts apps, and vice-versa.
I am looking for the clear up the following doubts:
1. Anyone experienced problem installing the Google Phone ?
2. Any idea how to further debug why I can't install Google Phone ?
3. Are you aware of any up-to-date rom giving me the pixel experience (The Pixel Experience thread has a lot of people askingn for updates - is it dead ?)
4. I start missing my LG Nexus 4, did I purchase the wrong device for what I am trying to achieve with it ? I start getting the feeling that I picked a phone with not enough scene going for it. Or is the scene in China?
Sorry for lengthy post, and appreciate any input.
cheers
You need to flasy Google Framework, then you can use googles apps like "phone"
Install any AOSP based rom, flash Gapps, root with magisk and search the download section for the 'Pixel 2 experience' module. I chose the last launcher, "new custom launcher"
Check if camera2api is enabled. It should be because of the pixel experience module but if it isn't yet download a magisk module for enabling it.
Check the Gcam threads on here for the recommended Gcam APKs and make sure to install Google photos too.
Last step is install the magisk module "Google framework" and installing the phone app etc. from the playstore.
After I followed these steps any AOSP based rom feels very pixel-like and Gcam even makes me think I actually bought one from time to time
Edit: I'm starting to think the pixel experience module actually has the framework included already as I currently don't have the framework module installed and I was able to download the phone app without any problems.
Good luck!

SMT 520 unable to load google play services on Resurrection remix 7.1.2

Having been impressed by Nougat on my wife's tablet I decided to flash mine: so far so good and OK with Gapps.
But I would like to be able to sync with my Google account and access Playstore etc. as I can't find many of the apps I use on other sites.
I have tried various versions of Play Services which install but do not seem to work all with prefix 40040
Any advice gratefully received.
Or should I just reload Kit Kat ?? Is that possible and where would I get basic apps.
Thanks in advance
Nick

No Playstore/GAPPs Rom

Hi, I'm getting back into ROMs after not looking at this forum since the Galaxy S (seriously). I want a ROM without Google baked into it. I see a few ROMs suggesting "dirty build" or optional installation of GAPPs. Do these ROMs actually provide an AOSP build without Google running in the background (play services, etc.)?
Basically, I'm looking for a ROM on my Nexus5x that doesn't track me back through Google (most stable, don't really care about speed/themes). Trying to get away from Google as much as possible due to their constant data mining, and I think this is the only way. Total NEWB here, I did use the search function, but I ran into a bunch of thread that didn't seem directly related.
I think that you are looking for LineageOs (ex CyanogenMod). You can install it without Google apps, so no play services, no Google account required, etc..
