Google sync add-on is a flashable zip created by ale5000 for a simple installation of Google sync adapters on Android from 4.4 to 16 (excluding Android 6.x).
No in-depth Android knowledge needed — the installer takes care of the hard parts. ✨
This project is available on GitHub, on GitLab, as well as on XDA.
IMPORTANT: In addition to the normal installation as a pure flashable zip, there are plans for the future (but not in the short term) to also support the installation as a Magisk module.
Although you may find various references to Magisk in the code, support is NOT yet ready.
Grab the latest stable release or, if you like to live dangerously, the nightly build. The badges below show the current version and download statistics.
Read before you flash (ten minutes of reading beats one hour of re-flashing)
Yes, the code is actually linted. No, it wasn't always pretty. Yes, it's better now. 🔍
CI pipelines run on every push to keep the build healthy — the code-lint workflow checks style and correctness, while the nightly workflow validates a full automated build. In addition, SonarQube, Codacy, and CodeFactor provide continuous code quality analysis from multiple angles, because one linter is never enough.

(Even fixing a typo counts. Probably. We'll review it very carefully either way.)
I maintain this project on my own in my spare time — the finite, precious kind that competes with sleep, meals eaten while staring at a terminal, and the occasional social obligation.
