NanoDroid
NanoDroid is an installer for various OpenSource projects, most noticably microG and F-Droid. It supports all Android 4.4+ phones and all partition layouts (System-as-root, A/B) and can be installed as a Magisk module. NanoDroid also includes several tools (eg. GNU Bash, tools from util-linux/bsdmainutils and more) and additional features (system debloating, init scripts, automatic logcat creation), aswell as a companion F-Droid Repository.
Furthermore it allows the user to do fine-graded installations using configuration files to choose what to install, or if several alternatives are available, which of them. See Installation below.
The full microG experience NanoDroid contains a modified Play Store allowing (in-)app-purchases with microG, which would normally not be possible. It also tries to remove all previously installed GApps on its own. For ROMs without builtin signature spoofing support, NanoDroid includes an on-device Patcher which tries to patch your ROM from either TWRP or Magisk Manager.
NanoDroid was previously called NanoMod (before version 16.0).

Downloads
Primary Mirror
Only the latest stable and beta releases are maintained and are available on Nanolx:
SHA256 Checksum and GPG Signature
Since version 18.3.1 all releases hosted on nanolx.org contain a SHA256 checksum and GPG signature to check their validity. AFH does provide the SHA256 checksum on the downloads summary page, but does not allow to upload a GPG signature.
You can verify the checksum with the public GPG key:
- download the public key from photonic.asc
- import it using
gpg --import photonic.asc
- import it using
- download and import using
gpgfrom pgp.mit.edu:gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv B0ABCE622A077B584B81339E340FD70EFFC52B26
gpg --verify NanoDroid-19.0.20181027.zip.sha256.sig
sha256sum -c NanoDroid-19.0.20181027.zip.sha256
Additionally, you may want to ensure the signing date is close to the release date.
