Spotify App Not Working with MicroG - MTCB Android Head Units Q&A

Hi
I can't get Spotify working with MicroG on Android 4.4.4 on an RK3188 unit:
- Installed the app via official Google Play Store
- The app starts; I can login and see my playlists, but I can't play or search any song; I get an error from Spotify as if I had no connectivity (I have Internet access; I can retrieve and sync the playlist info as an example)
- MicroG is active, self-check shows everything OK (spoofing enabled via FakeGApps, device registration enabled, GCM ON, SafetyNet disabled; I am also using XposedGmsCoreUnifiedNlp for location)
- I have also tried installing different Spotify apps via APK; the app would not start
- When using other openGaps ROMs, such as dsa8310's or Johny DJ's (https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...mtcb-mtcc-rk3188-4-4-4-firmware-apps-t3655800) the same version of the app is fully functional. I am not using @dsa8310 or @Johny DJ ROMs as I can't find any working microG version link. OpenGaps versions run very slow on my unit.
- I am facing similar issues with a few other apps (e.g. TuneIn)
- I am using microG gms 0.2.4
Any help here? Anybody that has faced similar Spotify issues when using microG?
Thanks a million!

SOLVED!
The issue was with the Ad Blocker embedded in Malaysk's Rom. Whitelisting "spclient.wg.spotify.com" solved the issue.

When you say Skype fix is included, what do we, the users, need to do to get it working automatically? Just run alsas command or we need to follow the guide with tasker? Also, YouTube is crashing, I suppose because of Tegra? Do you or anyone else knows which is the last working version?

skype fix is what you download from zip, you need to run alsas, config tasker etc, but you dont install that zip from recovery.
Thanks for the info and for your effort, of course. To anyone interested, latest YouTube working for me is 5.7.41.
Hi, after connecting i927 to PC using USB cable, I cant see the green android icon to confirm that I want to use the phone as a disk drive. Is it normal or something wrong happened to my glide?

Bubor, thank you once again for all your updates!
Everything is smooth as usual, but starting from 4.4.3 the battery in idle is draining way faster than before. The thing is simple: the phone never goes into deep sleep. Active time is 100% when charger is unplugged. Updating to 4.4.4 didn't fix the problem.
Further narrowed this issue: it comes with Google Play Services updated to 5.0.X. It just active all the time, even if not using CPU power at all. Restored it from backup to 4.4.52, now the phone sleeps again.

I've got 4.8.20 and it still eats the battery quite fast. And I must say that I'm always trying to do things that should make the battery last longer:
1. I usualy use 2G (switch to 3G only when using internet)
2. I turn off wifi when not needed
3. I switch the phone in airplane mode for the night.
4. I use Greenify app for freezing apps which are set to work in background and I don't need them to work that way.
5. Turn on bluetooth and GPS only when needed.
Like @Makshow I also noticed that the phone isn't going into deep sleep almost at all.

That google play services updated themselves to 5.0.82 before my manual update. And one shouldn't upgrade them manually from pa gapps, that update broke push messages for me.
Old gapps in this ROM has Services version 4.4.51-038, the -038 part means this version is for 480 DPI screen, while we have 240 DPI. Maybe, that was the reason why they updated themselves when I installed 4.4.3 ROM. Or maybe, they are just updating on some schedule...
I downloaded this file: Google Play Services 4.4.52 (1174655-034) from xda, and it's good so far - push is working, phone is sleeping. Will test some more.
Camera issue
Hi,
After a few days using 20140702 rom, I started to have problem with camera. It crashes all the time it's being run. Yeah, I know that @bubor wrote in OP that one of the issues is: "Video recording may crash with default (only?) app", but it's video recording, and I have crashes with camera. What's more strange is that the camera worked OK through a few days since installing the rom.
I've already cleared cache and data in the camera properties. I've even cleared cache and dalvik cache from TWRP level. And nothing. The camera still crashes. Any suggestions?
One more thing. During the last night my device rebooted. I wouldn't even know this, but I looked to uptime statistics of lately mentioned AeroControl app. Do you guys have such unexpected reboots?
---
Edit: the problem with camera has been resolved. It was just about full internal storage. After making some room, the camera started to work again.

Play Games Without Google Play Services

Hi All,
Hope you are fine. I am using LOS for N910C and didn't install Google apps and not thinking to install.
I am not using Google Play Services and all of Google products. For this reason i found LineageOS and i appreciate to the developers. I wish i could help but i don't have knowledge about programming. I am downloading APKs from the internet and installing by manual. For example Into The Dead 2. This game is free, i downloaded APK and OBB file of this game. Moved the folder to obb folder and installed APK. It is working, i can see the menu and other buttons but i can not click because of won't run without Google Play services, which are not supported by your device error. There is an OK button on error but it can not be clicked. I tried with many games, result is same.
Now i am asking how can i bypass this error or play games with or without Google Play Services?
P.S: My first option is definitely without but i can install only Google Play Services application and of course i will disable critical permissions.
Could you please help me about this issue? I need your experiences.
Thanks in advance.
Have a happy life with your loved ones.
Google play services has a module called play games. Many games use that for storing results or setting up multi player sessions. If you don't need all of that, you can try xposed module no more Google.. Or play services replacement microG. Nanodroid is a popular microG installer.
If you need the play games functionality, you should install open GApps pico. Besides restricting permissions, you can use some xposed firewall. And an add blocker of course.

You have to install fake store as well and give spoofing permission. Please post screenshot of self check.

When a game does not work in this configuration, it probably depends on Google play games. Last chance: install GApps, start the game, take a backup (titanium) restore microG setup, restore game.

[GPS] Lineageos (17 and 18) : GPS doesn't work

Hey,
I'm currently running on an unofficial lineageOS 18.1 ROM but I had the same problem with the official one.
I have a Redmi Note 7 without GAPPS (With Microg and OsmAnd (both from nanodroid ZiP)) and my GPS just does not work.
I can't get my position from the browser, from Satstats (F-DROID) or OSMAND (unknown position). I have enabled Déjà vu, Mozilla Location Service and Nominatim in MicroG (locations modules) and I also modified my /vendor/etc/gps.conf (I uncommented XTRA_ server, changed xtra_version_check to 3 (don't sure what it is and enable the throttle and I set INTERMEDIATE_POS to 1). Then I copied /vendor/etc/gps.conf to /system/etc.
However, it does not work.
PS : The GPS works perfectly with Gapps.
I'm sorry if my English is bad and please ask if you need to know anything.
Thanks !
Have a good day !

Why can't I log into Strava?

I have been running Lineage Is 17.1 with MicroG for a week and its amazing
I don't have GAPPS, but strava needs Google maps, so I have installed that...
The App starts up on the log in page, and after I enter my details it just loops never logging in ?
I have given the app every permission available.
Any advice appreciated
Hi, exact same problem for me. It would be great to read some solutions.
I am experiencing this as well. Hope we can find a fix for this.
Things I've tried...
Downloaded multiple older versions of both google maps and strava, I get to the point where I get a message saying to update microg, which I attempt and get an error saying 'conflicting packages'...
I've bit the bullet and logged in an old google account and still nothing...
It's as if the app hangs at the recaptcha stage of the log in process...
I got it working now.
My Device is a Galaxy S10 (beyond1lte) with Lineageos 18.1 for microg installed.
On microg I enabled "Cloud Messaging" for Strava.
That's it!
(..no Google Maps, nothing)

Good news...
Do you have signature spoofing enabled? I haven't worked that out on lineage 18.1...
I still use 17.1 with signature spoofing and this still doesn't work with cloud messaging
The following link helped me. https://plexus.techlore.tech/applications/strava/
So I activated SafetyNet in the microg settings and although the certification fails, "Test ReCAPTCHA" works and so does the login to Strava.
ROM is freshly installed https://download.lineage.microg.org/sunfish/lineage-18.1-20220321-microG-sunfish.zip
Hope it helps.

Some very wierd cookies goint on with EFS

So I rooted my OnePlus 7T, to fix some issues I had with OOS...and it was great. I absolutely loved FDEAI, iOS emojis, swift installer, AdAway and I could go on.
But one stupid day, I installed a magisk module, that corrupted my EFS. I was really scared, since even tho I had a backup, I had trouble restroning it permanently. It got erased on every reboot.
This problem presists, I haven't found a fix. But I have a hypotesis, on what could be it's cause. I have uninstalled the module already, so that wasn't it. Only today, two weeks after the incident, I realized, that my SELinux policy was Premissive. I didn't change it intentionally, so it must have been the module that did it.
Here's where I ask for help tho : 1. How do I change SELinux to Enforcing again? I only could find tutorials on how to set it to permissive. 2. Could this be the cause of the issue? 3. If it can't be this, what do I do? I'm running OxygenOS 11, so I can't just flash a fastboot rom, nor use MSM to reset. (Both are A10 only) and I don't think downgrading with mods installed would be anything of a good idea. There's also no TWRP support as you know.
This is a true nightmare, I really hope that I'll get to fix this soon. Thanks for you'alls help in advance. Here's some technical info : Device : OnePlus 7T, HD1903 OS : OxygenOS 11.0.1.1, HD65BA Kernel : 4.14.190-prefs+ Magisk : Installed from Boot image, version 23 Current Modules Installed : iOS 14.5 Emoji for FB and Messenger 1.4 Swift Installer Module v5 Systemless Hosts v1.0 Apps with root acces : AdAway Buoy Servicely Swift Installer Vanced Manager
