Explanation of pinned blobs
|
||||||
|
-------------------
|
||||||
|
NOTE: All arch specific blobs not specifically explained here are pinned for the sake of being able to extract independently of the architecture of the source device.
|

|
||||||
|
AndroidMigratePrebuilt.apk
|
||||||
|
- This is from a marlin factory image to avoid crashes with the one found in the walleye factory images.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
|
||||||
|
- This is no longer included in Google system images and is required for syncing Google Calendar accounts with AOSP Calendar.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PrebuiltExchange3Google.apk
|
||||||
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
PrebuiltGmsCore.apk
|
||||||
|
- This is a nodpi apk so that it works properly on all devices and updates to the appropriate one. This is generally from APKMirror and is not usually updated between major version updates.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
SetupWizard.apk
|
||||||
|
- This is a non-pixel SetupWizard for better UX and less pixel-specific references.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
default-permissions.xml and privapp-permissions-google.xml
|
||||||
|
- These do not always contain all the necessary permissions for apks which are not from the corresponding factory image, so they must be modified to avoid permission related crashes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
libjni_latinimegoogle.so
|
||||||
|
- This lib is no longer included in Google system images and is required for swype typing with AOSP LatinIME.
