Has it 2 sim slots, FM and TV? :cyclops: :laugh:

Are you still in China? My work has a plan there and I know in parts of China Google does not work due to the government blocks it. I know this because when we have to go over to support the factory we can not use google there.

nahh he got the phone from someone that came from china (i know oscar) but basically he intends to use the phone in Mexico ..
i have that phone on my hands after a brick, i recently restored to factory default firmware due to a bad Update that happened after he rooted and tried to update... (i think it doesnt have any security measures for the updates :/)
so basically
i want to know how similar is to the nexus 6 and if the phone can be loaded with the normal nexus 6 frimware
or if there is away to add a good set of google apps (like on ROMS) @oscarcorreab

I have the exact same issue. I have tried everything including root techniques, installing google apk via third party to make google services work but the google play services not working pop up annoys me constantly. How does one make the moto x pro work ? I have bought this phone now I need to be able to use google play store on it.

Need help with Huawei P30 Pro VOG-AL00

Hey guys
I have ordered a Huawei P30 pro VOG-AL00 from China. I just want to know what apps I wouldn't be able to use.
Some of my friends are telling me I won't be able to install whatsapp or facebook on the phone since it is the chinese variant, which does not make sense. I have searched the forums and found out that I will not be able to install play store which is fine. I normally install my apps via APKs anyway. Would I still be able to use Gmail? or youtube through the website? I can still download APKs and install them on the phone, right?
Thank you

So far I know, you can install google play from App Gallery and after that you should be able to install and run the Apps from play store.
But if you live in China, you need VPN to be able to do that.

Try searching these K20 Pro forums, I'm sure this has been answered a couple of months back.

You need Google contact sync for syncing contacts. You can't change Google services as they are already integrated.
Also, you won't have location services (history, sharing) in Chinese rom.

I only found a way to make work all google apps, I went to war to make google assitant.
1.- You must make yout phone root
2.- Install systemizer.
3.-Install google apps (play store, services, and syncadapters, for services you need are mandatory) calendar, contacts, etc. I donwloaded apks for all.
3.- Systemize all apps you want to work as natural.
I think this is a good piece of hardware but uses a layer of sw ****, I hate Nuvia os. And zte promise to give their's phones a clean android outer china.

Question Google Authenticator not updating?

Does anyone have experience with apps not showing updates in the Play store app for their Pixel 5a 5g?
I saw a recent blog posting about how the Google Authenticator app finally supports a cloud sync option to backup TOTP codes between devices. It talks about updating the app and getting the feature. But when I go to the Play store, it acts like the Authenticator app is already up to date at version 5.20R4 and says "Last updated Jul 11, 2022"...

Now it's Google Authenticator 2. You need to install

Hmm, when I go there in a browser and try to install, it says my device already has this app installed.
Trying to search for it in the Play app also ends up on the same page showing the existing Authenticator app.

Uninstall and only then install GA2.

I tried and it really doesn't offer it. It seems like the play store considers this just one app and for whatever reason keeps offering 5.20R4 as the latest version. I tried it on my wife's Pixel 6a and have the same result! Meanwhile, I installed on a really old Moto G4Play and it got version 6 with the new account sync option.
Also, uninstalling means you lose all the existing TOTP accounts from the older app, so anyone trying this should make sure to use the QR code export/import flow to save them somewhere else first!

Google and most Android Play Store apps does staged rollouts, where it releases the latest version to a couple of people/devices at a time. It takes an while for every device to get the latest version.
If you don't want to wait, you have to download the apk from a trusted source and install it manually

Thanks, it didn't occur to me from reading their blog post that it wasn't already rolled out.
I guess I've never really looked for a particular app update before, so didn't realize it worked that way. I assumed that going to check manually should find the same latest versions for everyone.
