Services Core (GmsCore)

microG GmsCore is a FLOSS (Free/Libre Open Source Software) framework to allow applications designed for Google Play Services to run on systems, where Play Services is not available. If you use your phone without GAPPS this might become a useful tool for you. This is currently alpha-grade Software. Don't use it if you're not aware of possible consequences. Possible consequences include that your very private data leaks to Fort Meade.

Instructions

Requirements and Installation instructions can be found on the XDA Thread

The following ROMs have out-of-box support for signature spoofing. This feature has to be enabled at the bottom of the developer settings first.

OmniROM

If you have the Xposed Framework installed, the following module will enable signature spoofing: FakeGApps by thermatk

If you have Root, but are not using Xposed, you can try patching your already-installed ROM using Needle by moosd

If you are a ROM developer or just do custom builds for whatever reason, you can download and include the patch from here and here.
