microG Services Framework Proxy on Android 15

Open baahver opened this issue 9 months ago • 11 comments

I have a Fairphone 4 with Lineageos 22.2 MicroG 0.3.6.244735 and MicroG Companion app are installed . In de installation sector I read:

Optionally install the apk of microG Services Framework Proxy as provided in the [download section](https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Downloads).
    It is needed to use the legacy "Device to Cloud Messaging" (C2DM) push messaging system.
    The microG Services Framework Proxy version does not need to match the microG Services version.

But if I try to install this GSF apk package I get a message that that is not possible on mu phone. What is the problem, or what changed this?

I think I need this gsf, because I have an app that stops and shows the message: Something went wrong. Check that Google Play is enabled ...

You can install it in this way:

  1. Download it on the pc
  2. adb install -r --bypass-low-target-sdk-block "./GsfProxy.apk"

And how do I specify the zip/apk?

The part ./GsfProxy.apk is the filename.

Version 0.3.7 is now pushed as update in F-droid. In the release notes I see:

Release artifacts
Users on devices with an aftermarket custom operating system ("Custom ROM") that supports microG should install
com.google.android.gms-250932014.apk and com.android.vending-84022614.apk. 
These versions are also distributed through the microG F-Droid repository.

I installed com.google.android.gsf-8.apk from the MicroG website with this command from above: adb install -r --bypass-low-target-sdk-block "./com.google.android.gsf-8.apk" That worked well. Should I replace this file with: com.google.android.gms-250932014.apk And should I install com.android.vending-84022614.apk in the same way?

No, this is needed only for microG Services Framework Proxy since currently the latest release of it has a low target SDK.

microG Companion / Play Store has correct signature:
