Minimum Google Play Services required

Hi everyone,

I purchased DraStic some time ago and am interested in installing it on a Google-free Resurrection Remix phone.

I know I need Google Play Services to validate the licence. Does anyone have any information on the bare minimum OpenGApps variant I could install to allow DraStic to validate? Do I also require Google Play Games or just Google Play Services?

Also, if I manage to get the licence to validate, is this a one-time operation? Or, after getting it validated, can I remove GApps as best as I can and DraStic will continue to work?


Thanks for any advice or help you can give me.

Google Play Games is not used.

DraStic is only supposed to check the license once a year, but I believe is still needs Google Play Services to work. You can try removing it after validating, but don't be surprised if it doesn't work.

Damn, I'll have to give it a miss then. I do understand why it's the way it is though. Thanks for the information.

In case it's helpful to someone searching, using a ROM with MicroG integrated also doesn't currently work with DraStic.
