Description

My learning machine cannot install the original Google Play suite because of the Android Enterprise Device Manager. However, after I installed it, MicroG could not verify the Google signature but verified the signature set at work. To solve the signature, Google Play must be installed, but they cannot coexist. Is there any way to solve it? There is another problem. The account on the device cannot be opened without modifying the file. These are the problems I encountered.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported coexistence problem between microG and the original Google Play suite on an Android Enterprise device. Investigate the package-name and Google-signature verification behavior, then check how the account-opening failure relates to the required file modification. Done would require a clearly defined compatible installation and account flow.
