Signature spoofing

[forcella]

Thanks to Shiunbird1's guide (https://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?topic=36736.0), I almost managed to get an google-less Android system on my Cosmo. However, as I described in my answer to that thread, my setup created through the guide still lacks Signature Spoofing. I found out by the help of the "Signature Spoofing Checker App" (https://f-droid.org/packages/lanchon.sigspoof.checker).
As long as the Signature Spoofing feature is disabled, some apps like WhatsApp won't function properly.
I tried various solutions to enable signature spoofing, such as Needle (https://github.com/souramoo/Needle) and the EdXposed module (https://github.com/thermatk/FakeGApps), none worked.
Does someone have an idea how to approach this problem?

The reason is likely because the Android ROM is still based on stock, just with root. For obvious reasons, Planet doesn't provide ROMs that support signature spoofing. Have you tried looking into the not-quite-finished LineageOS port?

I was not aware of a LineageOS port for Cosmo. Is this the fork you are referring to? https://github.com/PCLineageOS-Ports/cosmo-lk

Sorry, no, misread, thought you were on Gemini.

PCLineageOSPorts is an org I run. We haven't got LineageOS working on Cosmo just yet, but I did have another go last night. I need to finish my CoDi daemon for Cosmo Android/other ROMs.

i think you're stuck for the moment, the ROM will need signature spoofing support, and you're using the ODM/OEM-built stock ROM...

Keep at it I would love to see this happen. Just like a Kali image for Cosmo..
