How to do without Google services on your smartphone?
Previously, there was an application that imitated the functionality of Google Play and allowed you to install free applications, but did not drag a bunch of Google services with it.
----
Alternatively, I'm ready to put up with installing some version of the play services, but I don't want to connect a Google account on my smartphone and update these services accordingly.

Answer 1

microG , or custom firmware like cyanogenmod, or application substitution , or a number of other actions

Answer 2

No way. Now Google services are practically part of the OS. Without them, push notifications will definitely not work for you.

Answer 3

Look towards Chinese smartphones.
for example, meizu has official firmware (Flyme 5.1.12.0G) without Google services, but with its own application market (Hot apps)
Perhaps the same firmware can be installed on other phones

Answer 4

Well, apk themselves can be taken from here www.apkmirror.com

Answer 5

It is obvious! Buy iPhone!!! =)

Answer 6

You take and go.
Google services are demolished by the following script (root is needed, there is also the demolition of Chinese junk):

After that, you can use most applications as before.
True, individual programs may depend on cards / pushes or something else, but this is not critical, most often just some of the program's functions stop working. Less often the whole program, but in such cases it is worth looking for an alternative version untethered from Google Play on w3bsit3-dns.com or xda, these also happen (trust the one who made them or not is your own business). You can also find an alternative, since this is an android and there are a lot of programs, plus there are programs that are initially focused on firmware without Google Play, and often such programs even turn out to be of better quality.
In general, you can live, I use it myself without any problems, since most of the software I need works without the Internet at all.
And Google services tend to slow down a lot on devices with less than 512 MB of RAM.
