Is it possible to run Android without any google software on it.
For example: How to get latest APK versions of apps e.g. Firefox, Skype, Citymapper, Whatsapp, etc.. If I download APK of Citymapper and install it. Will the maps even work?
Please help, I hate google with passion.

>I hate Google with a passion Yet you've decided to use a mobile operating system created by them?
Brandon Butler
Android is google software. Are you trolling?
Nicholas White
if you mean ASOP, yes, but you need a custom rom
Justin Clark
Actually yes, it is possible Just install a custom ROM (such as CyanogenMod) and don't install Google Apps. Never use localisation and don't use any Google service. You can download Aptoide or F-Droid to get all the APKs you need
Also use an AdBlocker, most ads are shown by a Google service
Now observe how shitty it is to live without all of these, and flash the stock ROM of your device back again

Android is Google software.
Jeremiah Parker
You still need MicroG if you got OpenGapps?
Liam Flores
It's still Gapps so, yes. Remove them, then you install MicroG
Nathan Torres
oh my bad didn't read right the part where you remove opengapps

I beg this to be bait

OP's just a passionate guy. He probably passionately hates himself too, which is why he's doing something expressly against his wishes.
Jaxson Reed
how is it bait?
not op, but ubuntu touch, jolla os, etc. aren't viable on this day. hope it changes, but stuck with android without gapps for the time being

nice greentexting. it is like using chromium or chrome.
