hi, I was thinking of getting a Mix 2S and put LOS 17.1 on it. But then I learned that this would not allow MicroG (due to missing 'Signature Spoofing').
So, is there any other ROM for this device that would allow MicroG installation? Found no clear answer searching around here.
Guess, if MicroG is not possible, I have to go LOS + smalles possible GApps (like I did before I learned about MicroG)
thanks
So, I was able to patch LOS for signature spoofing support via some guidance found on r/microg.
But sadly some apps I still like to use don't work properly (yet). So for now I'm running mentioned GApps Pico.

Is there a ROM for Pixel2 which is built without GApps, but with signature spoofing built in? Maybe, with microG? None on lineage.mocrog.org for walleye.
I am trying LineageOS without GApps now. It does not have signature spoofing natively, so I installed XPosed, FakeGApps module, then microG. It kinda works, but not reliably. Sometime an app will crash, there are popups for GSF update.

Hi,
I'm looking for the same. As done time has passed since you asked, have you found a satisfying solution?
I wonder also if I can remove gapps manually from a rooted stock installation, use Xposed to enable signature spoofing and install microg.
Thanks
LOS17.1 for microG

So, I have installed various Xposed modules along with various magisk modules that says to allow signature spoofing without success, I'm now looking for a rom with signature spoofing support to enable MicroG services and just replace some of my Google apps. YouTube vanced for example requires MicroG to work, but for some reason I just can't find anything at all that allows me to enable signature spoofing. Any one who could point me in the right direction? I just received my op6 today and bootloader unlocking, twrp install and rooting went fine. So figured why not change rom as well when I'm in it all ready xD

HavocOS is aLOS based ROM that includes the "signature spoofing" patch. I haven't tried it with MicroG, but it is supported. IIRC, some folks have used Vance d though. You could search the ROM's thread for more info.
Omni, LiquidRemix, and Havoc all support signature spoofing, however I've had issues with certain parts of MicroG compatibility out the box and required a few tweaks to get going. I'm up and running with MicroG and LiquidRemix right now.
Can you tell me what the major benefits of microg are? Does it really increase battery life a lot? Or is it more of a privacy thing?

To install you just flash nanodroid?
Anyone aware of replacing stock GApps with microG on the stock rom? I'm sure signature spoofing would need to be enabled (via Haystack?) and assuming other changes as well. Mainly looking for a stock-ish setup with GApps and telemetry removed similar to the Tomatot Debloater but keeping as much stock functionality as possibly - VoLTE, VoWifi, fp, etc.
Thanks!
Yes it is possible, I am running MicroG on OOS 10.3.0. You can delete GmsCore (Google Play Services) and Google Services Framework in /system/system/product/priv-app through TWRP by mounting system. OOS doesn't have signature spoofing so you'll also need to use EdXposed for FakeGapps and XposedGmsUnifiedNlp. Then flash the MicroG Installer (Magisk module), and update microG in F-Droid. You can then remove all of the OOS filth and spyware with the debloater module. For this ti work, GmsCore and Google Services Framework cannot be debloated, they have to be deleted manually. For some reason safety net isn't passing atm, still figuring this out.
What even is the point of using microG on a proprietary rom? I suggest you use a rom which supports signature spoofing by default like aosip 10

Safetynet will not work because it's MicroG. I've seen some users manage to pass safetynet with MicroG but you will need to rely on hacky workarounds like NanoDroid (although I personally wasn't able to get safetynet to pass).
You cannot degogle few things like google package installer, googleExt (something like that), when i tried to google them i got bootlooped, however i tried to remove them via debloter (magisk module), if anyone have completely removed gapps let me know
also microg or unifiednlp dont detect proper location for me when i am at my home idk why.

OOS is currently the best rom IMO, chiefly because the OOS camera is that much better than the gcam ports, not to mention the roms stability.
My old phone has MicroG and safety net passes. I know it's possible, it's probably related to OOS not supporting signature spoofing.
Anybody gotten MicroG working on the Moto G7 Power? I've got the MetroPCS version, flashed with the RETUS firmware and rooted with Magisk. I've got most of the Google apps systemlessly uninstalled with the Terminal Debloater Magisk module but would like to get rid of Play Services too without losing stock rom and OTA updates. I always used NanoDroid before on my previous phone, Moto G3, but I can't seem to get it to work on this one. Running the patcher to make the stock rom support signature spoofing seems to work and NanoDroid seems to install without errors but when I reboot from TWRP the MicroG settings are nowhere to be found. It's listed in Magisk and MicroG and it's helper apps are listed as installed apps in Terminal but there is no way to access it. NanoDroid supposedly systemlessly removes any GAPPS that would cause a conflict with MicroG and I can verify in Terminal that Play Services & Play Store, at least, are no longer installed. I also tried the MicroG installer found in the Magisk repository with pretty much the same results. I thought that one might work since the NanoDroid Bromite Webview installer fails to install on this phone, claiming incompatibility, yet the Bromite Webview installer in the Magisk repository works without issue so I was hoping the same might be true with the MicroG installer but no such luck. I've tried various little variances in installation trying to get it to work but I'm pretty much stumped at this point.
Has anyone managed to get microG working yet?
I can get it installed via the revived or nanodroid Magisk modules, but haven't been able to get Signature Spoofing box ticked.
Have tried FakeGApps and Core Patch (LSPosed), and Smali patcher, no dice.
dude....couple more details what u talking about
microG is an alternative to google play services, with some flaws but less battery-sapping (and privacy-compromising) tracking.
now i can say....i have no clue what u talking about

vanced microG worked on my phone (noroot)
Depending on a variety of factors the boxes will not tick, however stuff would be working, as simple as opening play store, which won't open if it weren't properly set up.
Let us know.
Hey, did you get it to work? Also, did using Magisk mess up any other features (like the original camera app or anything else)?
I got it working beautifully thanks, no harmful side-effects, and this is what I ended up using for signature spoofing, which wasn't too hard to set up compared with some other options out there:

Just to reiterate this post... You are running Stock Android/Rooted/De-Googled and replaced with Micro G right? I have been on a quest the past week or so trying to find a ROM that works but it has been a lot of soft bricking and compromises once I do get one up and running. So this would be ideal for sure. Replace GAPPS with Micro G and keep the Sony camera apps. Either way I'll dig through those links and see what I can get figured out. Thanks!
