Google has root on your phone. That is enough for them to replace any signatures, steal keys, replace apps without you knowing etc.

This. If Google controlling your phone via a remote backdoor is part of your threat model, you better start shopping for a different operating system anyway. That's not an issue with any particular Android app, it's an issue with Android.
