What Are the Best Ideas for Using LineageOS with Root and microG? (github.com)

I have OnePlus 7 Pro that I successfully flashed with LineageOS 21 with MicroG. Do you have some interesting apps or ideas to take advantage of it? I thought of some Magisk modules. Maybe someone is more experience than me! This is the spare smartphone, the main one is GrapheneOS, so I don't mind breaking stuff.

Try passing the SafetyNet check

[–] vikingtons 2 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Someone suggested to me the other day that safetynet was now (or will soon be) deprecated. I'm not sure what the situation is with regards to attestation, though I sort of dread to think about what will replace it.

I think the new "safetynet" is "Play integrity". I think you need playstore installed and activated to pass the test though.

At least, it seems like many apps are ok with passing only safetynet though, so probably not a big issue yet.

Google Play and their services are so tightly integrated with Android, no wonder GrapheneOS did their sandbox... However, I thought of doing the same with microG.

Let's see how apps will adapt it.
