I use Paseo as a step counter. It works reliable without Google Services. Maybe you can get some inspiration from how they do it.
Would be very interested in a GServices free version.

I think they use SensorManager API which we could also use if Google Play Services isn’t available. SensorManager just has one big downside that it loses your steps if you restart your device, but at least it’d be better than nothing on de-googled devices.
