Install Aurora Store on LineageOS - Install Apps

[@p4radigm989]

btw. F-Droid was not included in LineageOS, I had to install it from the Browser. Do I only need F-Droid to install AuroraStore? and to update programs, so I only need to start Aurora Store or do I need to start F-Droid to update Aurora Store?

[@CyberPunkEdu]

Good point. F-droid comes with Lineage for microG, but not with plain LineageOS. YOu need F-Droid to install and update Aurora Store. You can also download the apk auroraoss.com/#downloads

[@BlackthornAM82]

I've done this and when I click Anonymous to enter the store it's just stuck and doesn't load anything. I've uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times, restarted my phone, and check to make sure i'm running the latest version. Do you have any idea what's happening, I'm trying to use it on Lineage OS 18.1 on a Oneplus 3.

[@CyberPunkEdu]

I have had that issue sometimes as well. There are times when it is a problem with the aurora store's anonymous login account. Sometimes it is an internet connectivity issue. Are you able to log in non-anonymously?

[@BodkinVanHorn-zs8np]

I’m new to lineageOS; do you need microG for apps from the Aurora Store to work?

[@CyberPunkEdu]

microG (or gapps) is necessary only if you need push notifications from apps. Otherwise, the apps will work without it.

Come back for the music. Its also your own made right..?

[@CyberPunkEdu]

Thank you for the kind comment. Yes, it is my own music.

I have a lineage phone. I have aurora store but it would always fail to open so i uninstalled it thinking i could just reinstall it through FDroid, however, it fails to download every single time. Does anyone have any tips please? Thanks.

[@CyberPunkEdu]

Sorry to hear that it's not working. Did Aurora store every open at all or would it just crash? Sometimes Aurora store won't load the app list because the account is rate limited. If it's not opening at all, then you might try removing all the cache and data from the app, and reinstalling. Make sure lineageos is up to date, or possibly it might need a reinstall. Which device are you using?

[@MahatmaLevolence]

@@CyberPunkEdu Thanks. I'm using a LG-D855 Android 11. I've never been able to make Aurora store work, now i can't even get it at all. it won't download.

[@CyberPunkEdu]

@@MahatmaLevolence Ok, it's possible that Android 11 is now too old to support Aurora Store. It's uncertain if older version will work. Unfortunately, the LG-D855 is no longer supported officially by LineageOS either. That could be why it's not working. You might be able to find an apk for Yalp store, but that also is no longer in development. Sorry that I don't have better news.

[@MahatmaLevolence]

@@CyberPunkEdu Yes, that would make sense, though FDroid's still working. Well, at least i don't feel as bad after cursing my own stupidity/cybertardedness for months. Do you know of any affordable phones that are still supported and or not obsolete (i wouldn't have bought it if i'd known it'd be useless in a year's time) at all? Rob Braxman has Braxphones and degoogled pixel phones but they're way beyond my budget. Cheers.

[@CyberPunkEdu]

@@MahatmaLevolence It's not your fault. There are so many devices out there, and it's difficult to know what is what these days. This is a good website to help determine which phones have more maintainers and support: lineageos-device-finder.org/lineageos-device-configurator I usually go with Oneplus devices or Pixel phones as well. Pixels are most supported by custom OSes, and are easy to work with. Just be sure that you get phones that are "factory unlocked" or "OEM unlockable". I'm not sure of your budget but I use a Pixel 5 (which was around $150 USD second hand) which seems still well supported. You can check out swappa.com or ebay depending on where you live.

I tried logging in but when I click anonymous it keeps saying "requesting new session"

[@CyberPunkEdu]

Sometimes it does this. Fully close the app and try again. It depends on the day/time, and the server doesn't accept it. Also make sure aurora store is up to date through F-droid. Most of the time it seem to work though.

[@Moonlight_InTheMiddle]

@@CyberPunkEdu Okay I will try it

[@Moonlight_InTheMiddle]

@@CyberPunkEdu Thanks so much I got in

[@CyberPunkEdu]

@@Moonlight_InTheMiddle I'm happy to hear that it is working !

[@SASUKE-pf7he]

How do you see the apk after downloaded

[@CyberPunkEdu]

The apk seems to auto delete after install, but before installing they go to: Android>data>com.aurora.store>files>Downloads>[app name]>[app version]>[apk file]

[@veroniquebenchebra6065]

La deuxième étape ne marche pas, autorisation de l apliquation je ne l ai pas

[@CyberPunkEdu]

Désolé, la deuxième étape ? Est-ce que vous voulez dire installer Aurora Store?
