Description

I installed aosp but I hadn't see this:
https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore/wiki/Signature-Spoofing

so I installed xposed module,

today I read it and I switched on the two relevant permissions (for gms and play store) and
I uninstalled the xposed module and
I'm getting the following errors after boot:

`11-25 16:10:53.847 W/PackageManager(1568): Not granting permission android.permission.FAKE_PACKAGE_SIGNATURE to package com.google.android.gms because it was previously installed without

11-25 16:11:41.491 I/InstalledAppProvider(4906): selectNotSystemSignature: systemSignature == null, querying for it

11-25 16:11:41.523 I/InstalledAppProvider(4906): excluding InstalledApps signed by system signatures
`

notifications and play store is working normally,
will I have problems?

I'm running latest offlicial microg

Research direction

Start with the reported PackageManager and InstalledAppProvider log messages and compare them with the linked Signature Spoofing wiki page. No source file, test, or entry point is named; done would be determining whether the FAKE_PACKAGE_SIGNATURE warning causes a functional problem for microG, or documenting the required remediation.
