# FakeGApps | ||
|
||
Used in combinaton with [µg GmsCore](https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore) to enable Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) and much more. | ||
|
||
This tutorial describes only the installation process to get GCM working. The also available Google Play Store replacement Blankstore is not discussed here. | ||
|
||
## Installation for Android with root access and without Gapps | ||
|
||
* Install Xposed | ||
* For Lollipop and Marshmallow from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 | ||
|
||
* For version below Lollipop using Xposed installer from http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer | ||
|
||
* Install this FakeGApps module from Xposed Repo(or releases) and enable it in Xposed Installer under 'Modules' | ||
* Install FakeStore from http://own.darkcloud.ca:90/Android-Builds/ instead you can use Blankstore (see below) | ||
* Install latest GmsCore build 'play-services-core-debug.apk' from http://files.brnmod.rocks/apps/GmsCore/Latest/ | ||
* Reboot and dial in your phone app \*#\*#CHECKIN#\*#\* to register GCM | ||
|
||
Note: to enable GCM e.g for messaging apps like Threema or Textsecure, you have to update / install the same apk once again to allow them to obtain the GCM related permissions. | ||
|
||
GCM can be tested using e.g. [Google Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.firstrowria.pushnotificationtester&hl=en) which is also downloadble from [evozi](http://apps.evozi.com/apk-downloader/?id=com.firstrowria.pushnotificationtester). | ||

## Untested ways to remove Gapps | ||
|
||
The procedure described [here](http://hex.ro/wp/blog/removing-gapps-from-cyanogenmod-11/) for removing Gapps from CM11 should also work for other ROMs where Gapps has been installed using a flashable zip. | ||
|
||
## How To Install Blankstore | ||
Its assumed that Gapps has already been removed completely including previous folders such as ```/data/app/com.android.vending/```. | ||
|
||
### For Android 5.0+ | ||
* create the folder ```/system/priv-app/Phonesky``` and change permissions to 755 | ||
* Download latest ```Blankstore.apk``` from [BlankStore Repo](https://github.com/mar-v-in/BlankStore/releases/), copy it to folder ```/system/priv-app/Phonesky``` and change the APK's permissions to 644 | ||
* Reboot | ||
* Download [this JAR file](http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3392935&d=1436186022) and run ```java -jar android-checkin-1.0.jar <email> <password>``` from the <b>console/terminal of your PC running Linux/OSX</b> | ||
* Start the new Market app and login using your credentials and the Android ID from output of previous command | ||
|
||
### Untested ways for Android 4.0+ - 4.3.x | ||
* Instead of the first two steps for Android 5.0, download the Blankstore.apk, rename it to ```com.android.vending.apk``` and copy it to ```/system/app```, apply same permissions as above and proceed the same way as for Android 5.0 | ||
|
||
### Untested ways for Android 4.4.x | ||
* Instead of the first two steps for Android 5.0, download the Blankstore.apk, rename it to ```com.android.vending.apk``` and copy it to ```/system/priv-app```, apply same permissions as above and proceed the same way as for Android 5.0 | ||
This is an Xposed module and such needs LSPosed or compatible installed. | ||
To install, install the APK from the releases section and enable it in LSPosed Manager. You don't need to tick any checkboxes except the already enabled "system frameworks". |
