I accidentally found my mistake: I always just touched the screen, but I needed to tap and hold the specific line until the pop-up appears and asks for permission.
So let’s see if it works.
Did you install the several Nlp Backends? You didn’t mention them above, but they were recommended in earlier versions…
I did not, i thinks it’s included in microG Core.
Unified Network Location Provider is included in GmsCore
https://microg.org/
With 4.4.0.64 on a Sony 10 III I have problems to install microg. In F-Droid there are no blue download arrows at
microG Services Core
microg Services Framwork Proxy
(unerwünschte Merkmale = unwanted features)
So I cannot install them, although I allowed to install unsecure apps.
What I’m I doing wrong?
Best regards, Uwe.
I just found out: the two apk are downloadle on:
https://microg.org/download.html
I installed them with apkd-install
Best regards, Uwe.
I followed this old HowTo, but had some problems, too. Now I get push-notifications by some Android-apps.
How can you instal playstore if i may ask?
Yeah i meant with microg

I guess the the url of the link to opengapps got resolved in the post, so i don’t know how to ensure that it stays the url. Maybe you can open it and paste it in the script. Or you open it and download the zip and put the script in the same directory where you downloaded the zip
For a few years I could simply install the Play Store from and APK and it actually worked. It needed reinstall of MicroG and you needed to not log into your google account in microG but do it from the inside of the Store, but it did work.
But unfortunately when I tried a month ago on my new phone it no longer worked, so it certainly no longer is as easy.
Fortunately Aurora Store is great, it even allows you to download apps you bought, unfortunately a those that then try to authenticate the purchase with the Play Store will fail to do so.
ive used the script on the new 4.5 update and i used the android 11 pico but the terminal return the umount:/home/.aliendvlik_systemimg_patch/tmp/systemimg_mount:no moun
@ubuntuscofield Try this script Sony 10 II - Dual SIM (arm64) | Sailfish OS 4.5 | Android 11 | Open GApps pico installation script · GitHub for SFOS 4.5 and Android 11
Weird, I just reran the same script as on .64 (.72 didn’t need reinstall for some reason, maybe not enough changed) and it works fine
Thanks but can you make a variant for xperia xa2?
Could someone help me to get google play services working on 4.4.0.72 as it’s essential for Tile™ application. what do i do after i install microg? I have “microG settings” and “microG Services” working but not play service part.
Do you want Google Play Services or microG? They are not the same.
To get better help, state where you get stuck as opposed to something very generic.
I get notification for lack of “google play services”
I don’t know how to fix it but I tried f-droid with microgservicesCore + FakeStore + FakeGapps packages installed but it didn’t make a difference
What app even is that?
