signal is telling "this device doesn't support play services" even if microg was setup
I installed CalyxOS today (sunfish-factory-2021.01.06.14.zip
) on my shiny new Pixel 4a. During the install, I was asked to setup microg and I said "hell yeah, screw google proprietary junk! awesome!" But then when I installed Signal, it popped a blue warning on top saying something to the effect that "this device doesn't support play services" and announcing it will open its own background connexion and will need battery savings stuff and so on.
Even now, Signal has that annoying constant notification: "Background connection enabled".
When I go into the MicroG app and run the "Self-Check", everything is "checked" except the "Services Framework (GSF) installed:" checkbox, which is unchecked. Not sure if that matters, because "Play services" is checked correctly...
I'd love to be able to help with this, but I'm afraid I won't redo this install, as I spent most of the day working on this (while doing server reboots so it was not a total waste of time, but still ;)...
