Google login

[L. V. Lammert]

Trying to troubleshoot a Google login problem on a 2.6.35 device, .. can
anyone point me to a defnitive listing of what Google components are
required for *basic* Google services (Mail, Calenar, Drive)?

TIA!

Android 2.3/Gingerbread shipped with kernel 2.6.35 so I surmise that's what you're using.

Based on the contents of the Gingerbread GApps package linked below, the below files are what turns a 2.3 AOSP device into a Google-blessed device (those who install custom ROMs built from source must apply one of these packages since the Google components can't be distributed with the ROM image).  This stuff basically just bootstraps things to the point where you can sign into a device with a Google account, sync contacts/calendars, and go download GMail from the Play Store.  

So I'd imagine that this represents the bare minimum you'd need to talk to Google services properly, and disrupting these files would likely be problematic.
