microG Mobile Services

This is a collection of FOSS APKs, coupled with the respective Makefiles for an easy integration in the Android build system.

To include them in your build, add a repo manifest file to include this repository as vendor/partner_gms and set WITH_GMS to true when building.

Example manifest:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<manifest>
    <project path="vendor/partner_gms" name="lineageos4microg/android_vendor_partner_gms" remote="github" revision="master" />
</manifest>

Note: You do not need to set CUSTOM_PACKAGES for the packages to be included when building with lineageos4microg/docker-lineage-cicd.

The included APKs are:

  • FDroid packages (binaries sourced from here and here)
    • FDroid: a catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) applications for the Android platform
    • FDroid Privileged Extension: a FDroid extension to ease the installation/removal of apps
    • additional_repos.xml: a simple package to include the microG FDroid repository in the ROM (requires FDroid >= 1.5)
  • microG packages (binaries sourced from here)
    • GmsCore: the main component of microG, a FOSS reimplementation of the Google Play Services (requires GsfProxy and FakeStore for full functionality)
    • GsfProxy: a GmsCore proxy for legacy GCM compatibility
    • FakeStore: an empty package that mocks the existence of the Google Play Store
    • IchnaeaNlpBackend: Network location provider using Mozilla Location Service
    • NominatimGeocoderBackend: Geocoder backend that uses OSM Nominatim service.

These are official unmodified prebuilt binaries, signed by the corresponding developers.
