Description

Device/Android Version: Moto E (2nd Gen) / 5.1
GmsCore Versions tried: v0.2.11.202414 , v0.2.5.12879

I am unable to install GmsCore to begin the microG installation process. This seems to be a unique issue since I am able to install the latest version on my other device (Samsung 10e) so I am not sure of the issue's source.

  • Is this a android version incompatibility issue? Is there an older version that would be compatible with Android 5?

Research direction

The issue names no source files or tests; it reports installation failures for GmsCore v0.2.11.202414 and v0.2.5.12879 on a Moto E (2nd Gen) running Android 5.1. Start by reproducing the installation attempt and collecting the missing error details. Done means identifying the Android-version compatibility cause and documenting a supported version or clear resolution.
