    The lockdown is not in android itself but in Google services so if the device is on a new enough android version (not very new like marshmallow) the lockdown will apply. If the lockdown were in android itself it would affect(effect? Idk) all roms

    Either we're having two different conversations, or I completely don't understand what you're saying.

    How would GPS services affect a roms ability to sideload 3rd party apps, and 3rd party app stores?
