Also, has everybody been able to get the "background location" and "receive SMS" perms checked in self-check on MinMicroG 2.8?

Experiencing the /e/ OS: The Open Source De-Googled Android Version (updated April 29, 2021)

/e/ Android operating system is a privacy oriented, Google-free mobile operating system, fork of Lineage OS and was founded in mid-2018 by Gaël Duval, creator of Mandrake Linux (now Mandriva Linux).

Despite making Android an open source project in 2007, Google replaced some OS elements with proprietary software when Android gained popularity. /e/ Foundation has replaced the proprietary apps and services with MicroG, an open source alternative framework which minimizes tracking and device activity.

microg/GmsCore
v0.2.21.212158

https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.2.21.212158

This release fixes two major bugs introduced with v0.2.20.212158.

### Notice regarding updates from v0.2.20.212158
If you already updated to v0.2.20.212158 and you can't install the update to v0.2.21.212158 the usual way, you may need to connect your device to a compute with adb installed and invoke the following commands in a shell:
adb push path/to/play-services-core-212158042.apk /data/local/tmp/play-services-core-212158042.apk
adb shell pm install-create -r --staged # This returns a session id in brackets
adb shell pm install-write session-id base /data/local/tmp/play-services-core-212158042.apk
adb shell pm install-commit session-id
adb shell rm /data/local/tmp/play-services-core-212158042.apk
adb reboot

If this doesn't work, you might need to directly update the .apk on your /system-partition or wait for the ROM developer to update to v0.2.21.212158.

Be careful for #MicroG users: Current version is NOT secure for login with your Google Account. It will show your email/password in cleartext in logcat.
It doesn't matter if you have root or not, you only need logcat access to exploit it.

Anarchy-Droid

One-Click Android rom installation assistant

Anarchy-Droid is an application designed to help you install custom roms on your Android device. It is supposed to make the process of finding, downloading and installing a rom (with addons like F-Droid and microG) as easy as possible. The primary audience is all the folks who do not really know anything about Android, TWRP or roms, but still would like to run a free, open-source and non-bloated Android on their devices. Using a free after-market rom like LineageOS should not be restricted to the few people with enough technical know-how to do the complex installation procedure all by themselves.

Anarchy-Droid is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. As of now, it should be working fine with many Samsung, OnePlus, Motorola, NVidia and Sony devices and with all other devices that already have TWRP installed.

Anarchy-Droid is the successor of Free-Droid which has been fully rewritten from scratch in go.

#microg v0.2.28.231657

https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.2.28.231657

Changelog
Entirely new, rewritten location stack
Major update to maps implementation. Thanks fynngodau
Support for reCAPTCHA Enterprise API
Various compatibility improvements

Notes
The new location stack does not support UnifiedNlp modules anymore. This was a step necessary to take to get locations properly working on latest Android versions. This means that some features previously available through UnifiedNlp modules do no longer exist. The goal is to merge the most important of those features into GmsCore. For now, the new locations stack is relying exclusively on Mozilla Location Service for network based location.
microG GmsCore now requests a few additional privileged permissions. As always, privileged permissions are optional for microG and you can continue using microG as an unprivileged app with only minor downsides. The new privileged permissions are:
android.permission.LOCATION_HARDWARE
android.permission.MODIFY_PHONE_STATE
android.permission.NETWORK_SCAN
android.permission.UPDATE_DEVICE_STATS
android.permission.WATCH_APPOPS

LineageOS adds internal support for microG

https://review.lineageos.org/c/LineageOS/android_frameworks_base/+/383574

https://review.lineageos.org/q/topic:microg-eval

And the application signature spoofing is locked-down to apps signed by microg.org.

As of February 25th 2024, LineageOS has added internal support for application signature spoofing, a critical pre-requisite for full microG functionality. LineageOS ROM images built after that date will include this new feature.

This means that many people will no longer have to root their device and install tools like Xposed/LSposed to make their ROMs compatible with microG. This is a win for both security/stability as well as user friendliness, as there is no longer any need for any settings/permissions in this implementation. The ROM will “just work” with core modules released by the microG project.

Other than application signature spoofing hacks, microG installation tasks remain as before. Please see #microg #installers note for a general overview and links to recommended installation tools.

~

This is huge news for the microG project, as LineageOS is the largest and most famous custom Android ROM project in the world.

LOS is also used as the foundation for a large percentage of other custom android ROMs as well. Which means that almost every one of those ROMs will also now include microG support by default, without any extra effort on their part.

The impact of this on the custom ROM community cannot be overstated: it is a “watershed moment”.

Many in the FOSS community have gotten increasingly frustrated with Google’s progressive crippling of the base FOSS version of android “AOSP”, and the migration of many important core functions which used to be included with AOSP into proprietary, closed-source Google apps and frameworks instead.

This issue was one of the founding objectives of the microG project: give control back to the user and let them take advantage of the open-source foundation of android without forcing them to use a proprietary and snoopery vendor-locked version of the OS instead, just to get basic functionality like push messaging and Play Store app compatibility.

At this point we believe that the existing “LineageOS for microG” project will continue with their project as it is a “works out of the box” solution that also bundles some FOSS app store tools.

MicroG Installers:

Just installing the microg components as user apps will partially function but you will not get full functionality without the main components installed as system apps, like the location components.

There are a few 3rd-party installers that handle that and set all the required permissions etc.
These are the ones generally recommended
*Note: currently all installers use the official microg version, so you can update it from its F-Droid repository.
