Support for official Google Play Games apk [$210]

Open ale5000-git opened this issue 7 years ago • 49 comments

It would be nice to have the APIs used by Google Play Games and the official Google Play Games apk working correctly :)

When I open Google Play Games I get "com.google.android.gms.games.app.PowerUpApplication is having problems with Google Play Services."

Here is the logcat to get some hint: https://www.zerobin.net/?0e026f4c2fa6a878#1BUMnxcFvzeF5Li3X1wi/ISY4K2vBWnOoCRwHgMhkVE=

I get a notification of your comment but I don't see it.

@ale5000-git Yeah, I was thinking someone asked 5$ to get this working, and deleted my post after I saw I where wrong xD, I will add 5$ more by few days I think :) ! Edit : there we are

Has anyone tested microG with this?

It doesn't fix this issues but it is a good workaround in the mean time.

ale5000-git avatar Mar 02 '17 12:03 ale5000-git

It simply disable the gplay hint right ? My game need to log in to fetch my account :(

@Technowix: I think yes but I haven't tried. Could you mention a game that need to log in to fetch account? Just for reference.

@ale5000-git I'm targeting Dynamix to work, but as I said they rely on the google play framework to store/manage paid account (that I have for unlocking more songs to play)

Miaourt avatar Mar 15 '17 21:03 Miaourt

Love Live! School Idol Festival also uses Google Play Games to store account info. I'm trying to access my account that used to be on another device but can't because Google Play Games won't work. :c

NEO Scavenger yields this crash: https://gist.github.com/licaon-kter/920c77d2cec698cd993665c07b150286

Clash of Clans requires Google Play Games API.

MOVZX avatar Aug 10 '17 10:08 MOVZX

Regarding NEO Scavenger:

  • on one device with microG - black screen
  • on another device with microG - works ok
  • on one device with Google Service (disabled/enabled/updated/etc) - black screen

:-| strange

I have the same problem too Parralel space fully support Google services and Google Play Games, why not VirtualXposed??

ghost avatar May 28 '19 19:05 ghost

Anyone will care about this? Many users using unsigned apks on virtualxposed app but MicroG doesn't work with Google Play Games. Please do something

@nm111 has worked on it here: https://github.com/microg/android_external_GmsApi/pull/12 But I'm not sure what is the current state.

ale5000-git avatar Nov 19 '19 16:11 ale5000-git

I don't know if the pr is in the last release but Azur Lane and Love Live SIFAS crash right after the loading screen :/

skid9000 avatar Nov 23 '19 15:11 skid9000

Wait what the... ?!

After flashing some random magisk modules, i successfully launched Love Live SIFAS, without passing safety-net

Still can't launch Azur Lane tho 🤔

skid9000 avatar Nov 23 '19 18:11 skid9000

Nice to see someone already working on Play Games

ghost avatar Dec 21 '19 20:12 ghost

Here is the logcat of AzurLane if someone want to investigate...

For VirtualXposed (with MicroG) users: Workaround is to use VM for now using VMOS. Official Google services working perfectly on it and it can be rooted My dream became true lol https://www.vmos.com/

OOF https://github.com/anbox/anbox/issues/1108

skid9000 avatar Jan 03 '20 21:01 skid9000

Wow didnt know you can run vm on phone. Tested, it's working. Google play games working perfectly yaay!

ghost avatar Jan 04 '20 11:01 ghost

I honestly don't see much point in choosing uG and then installing GMS again but just in a container. Isn't the point of all this to remove Play Services entirely? GPL is essentially if you distribute (modified) copies or substantial portions of the program, these copies must retain the license and source code for them must be also available. So it is clear that VMOS is violating this. There exists https://gpl-violations.org/, there is some information there.

ghost avatar Jan 05 '20 19:01 ghost

@nm111 sadly as many of the people there know, it's almost impossible to use most now common android apps without Google's services. So being able to use them with microg is fine, being able to use them in a isolated environment might be even easier and better privacy wise, since they are isolated ?

Miaourt avatar Jan 05 '20 19:01 Miaourt

@Miaourt yes much easier especially for running multiple accounts on non root device. I was using Virtualxposed too that has microG installer but play games don't work. Parallel space support google services but outdated. VMOS is actually more compatibility than those parallel apps

ghost avatar Jan 05 '20 21:01 ghost

We should be talking about re-implementing APIs needed for Play Games here not about a thing not related.

ale5000-git avatar Jan 05 '20 23:01 ale5000-git

I don't think more devs are willing to waste time implementing it than a single user who tried. It's still a lack of interest :(

ghost avatar Jan 06 '20 07:01 ghost

Just for clarifictaion: The thing that user did here is only an definition on how games communicate with Google Play Games, not any work to get the Play Games app work.
