Google Play Store on P20 Pro DF-DFERH-01 error - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello,
I'm getting DF-DFERH-01 error when trying to launch Google Play Store on my P20 Pro. Got the phone from Chinese operator (China Unicom) and using VPN.
Play Store works well from the PrivateSpace of the same phone (But not from the MainSpace). Play Store also works well on another P20 MainSpace, purchased in China. I've tried all the methods proposed online (Delete cache, delete Google account, restart, factory reset...). Nothing works. Thanks for your help!

Hi, I just get the huawei p20 pro in China and I have the same issue. I use vpn to pass by restriction and I already follow every tutorials from youtube. I'm still looking for a solution and I will be more than happy if someone can help me.
Regards

is your playstore status "certified" or "uncertified" ?
also, how do you install your playstore and play services ? i dont think CLT-L00 got play store in it to begin with.

Workaround
@Davidrxl
I managed to make it work! I did a phone cloning (using "Phone Clone" app) of the System and Play store apk from the P20 on which Play store was working. Still don't understand why I couldn't make it work by installing Playstore from scratch on P20pro...
So, find someone who has a P20 or P20pro (or maybe any other Huawei phone), on which it works and clone the system and Play Store.
@otonieru
Play Store is available from Huawei's AppGallery. Or you can download the apk from any other site.

I have the same problem on both an Honor Note 8 and a Huawei Mate 8 that won't get into the play store. I get nothing but DF-DFERH-01.
It seems to be a problem with oreo or newer. I reverted the Note 8 to nougat and it works.
Has anyone gotten play store to work on a Huawei/Honor running Oreo? If so then how? I don't understand what phone clone would be. I tried copying gms and playstore apks from my working nougat to my non-working oreo and no go. Same error, identical in every way. Tried clearing cache, several versions, gmsinstaller and so on...

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.

ZTE Axon M 128GB Chinese Edition Oreo Update removes Google functionality

Yesterday I updated to Oreo as the ZTE Axon M update service showed a new update available. On update Google Play would no longer launch and Play Services was not functioning. The Google Application services were pre-installed on the phone when purchased and shipped from AliExpress.
I figured I would reset the phone and on reset all Google functionality was removed.
I figured I would simply install the GAPPS services again and followed this thread:
https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...-store-without-gapps-google-services-0176241/
However once everything installs and I launch the Play Store I get a white blank screen.
I would have expected to be prompted for the Google Account login screen and if I check Accounts from settings I can see that there is a Google Account listed but not configured and if I click it I am told to add the account from the relevant app. There is no other shortcut installed though other than Google Play Store which hangs as described previously.
I have tried various other ways to get this sorted out but the end result is the same, inability to add a google account and no way to launch the play store.
I considered YalpStore but its really not fit for purpose because anything that requires the Google Play Services framework will not run.
My phone is not rooted but it appears it does not need to be for GAPPS install functionality. I can see many threads that say this works without the need for rooting (and in any event there are no guides for rooting an Axon M).
My question is simply how do I the Google Play Store and Google Play Services to work on the ZTE Axon M with the Oreo update ? It is driving me nuts and I would never have proceeded with the update if I had realised it would simply be removed.
Same

I tried, same issue crashing
I tried multiple methods too, but to no avail.
I do suspect a possibility. The previous time when i managed to get my gapps working when i first got the Chinese set, i had to disable the "Mi-Assistant" App as that was the one preventing my Google Play Services from Auto-Running even though it was set to allow. This time, I can not even see Google Play Services in the Auto-Run Manager and while i tried to force stop and disable the "Mi-Assistant" App, it does not allow me to disable.
I hope this info can help provide some leads to an expert who would be able to help us get back our GApps running again.
Thanks.
I do agree... meanwhile take a look here: https://code.tutsplus.com/articles/10-alternative-android-app-stores--cms-20999
good morning I found the application with the google play store inside the play store zte. After several attempts I managed to install a heavy game (1.3 GB) as ADERA disabling all the Chinese apps, keeping the display always active, I only downloaded via wi-fi. So I managed to download it without problems (I do not know which of these changes worked). the application has a triangular design with central red, the word Google followed by two Chinese characters

yes oreo 8.1 axon m 6 / 128gb. If there is the possibility I can post images of the app. One thing the app inside contains the play store but the apps that you download do not appear on the home of the device but within the app itself
Sounds like an emulator to me.. Would be great if you could provide the images of the app. Any small information helps.
Btw, to all, i did manage to download a GApps installer which seemed promising, cause at least it went into the login page for Google Account. But then the error of requesting to update "Google Play Services" popped up again and again and everything went down the drain again. Will try further and hopefully will have good news.
I'm new on the forum you have to explain to me how to post the images. thank you
Dears... did you see that in the ZTE Store?
Search for Google Play...

There is an application in the ZTE Market that installs a pseudo Google Play but it is sandboxed somehow and you have to launch this app to get access to your installs - feels very insecure to me - I just want a clean Google Play on the device
unfortunately for now it is the only solution I found. Otherwise you must use third-party app stores such as amazon, aptoide, etc.

I posted a link with a few of alternative stores (the best is to get the apk stand-alone ihmo) but if it is to follow that sandbox ways, as suggest, create a new "junky" account just to have it registered.
Any Update??!!

Google Play Store and Services on Chinese bought P30 Pro?

Hi,
My friend is on a trip to China and is interested in getting a P30 Pro there, but China doesn't allow Google in their country. He's wondering if there is any way to install the Play Store and the related services so they can be used when he comes back to the UK.
I've seen some apk's, while searching about this topic, that supposedly install GMS etc but I'm not sure how legit/trustworthy those are, since from my experience with custom software, I've had to use TWRP to install Gapps properly.
Thanks in advance for your help
PS: The specific model number is VOG-AL10
You can install the Play Store from within the Huawei app store, App Gallery.
You need to first update the 'App Gallery' app then in the latest version under updates it will hidden under "Not recommended."
After you install the "update" Play services and everything will be enabled.
Updated versions of the Play Store will be posted in the App Gallery as well (that's been my experience with other Huawei phones anyways).

Using this method all Google Services run normally (notifications, location, sync, etc)? I'm used to flashing Gapps on custom ROMs on my phones so I thought you needed to that everywhere, or I guess Huawei can do these kinds of special installations through their store equally effectively.

You can install GSM, Play store and all the google apps and they will work good.
The only thing that will not works (without magisk) is Google Pay, because the phone is not certified and it will not pass Safenet tests (as on China Xiaomi phones).

I have the VOG-AL10 bought in China and am now using it in the UK. The Play Store works fine (downloaded from Huawei's App Gallery) & I have installed all the normal Google apps without problem. I couldn't install Play Store in China due to the restricted internet, but installed it in the UK. One weird thing I found is that I had to keep the App Gallery's region as China to install Play Store as it disappeared when I changed the region to the UK (in App Gallery go to Me > Settings > Country/Region).
This model is not Play Protect Certified so the NFC part of Google Pay doesn't work (and you need to sideload Netflix), but I've had no problem using Google Pay for in app purchases.

Does this still work? I've have a VOG-AL00 and I can't find Play Store in the App Gallery ;s. I'm afraid flashing to a global version isn't possible.

If it was that easy then the guide would just tell you to do that, there is more missing than Google play store etc, that lz play app installs the prerequisites needed for Play and other google apps to work
damn so apk downloaded isn't the simple answer, again but y? so example I get huawei mate 30 pro and download Google app apk from let's say Apkmirror. that literally won't work?

A simple apk from apkmirror seems to work for the VOG-AL00.

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.

Question Most Huawei apps don't work.

Hey, its been a few weeks since I got my Honor magic 3 Pro, imported from China.
For information I'm currently using it with my account in India region.
First things I've noticed is
I'm unable to access themes app on this phone, it says not available in your region, along with online music and other services.
Even on changing service region to other places like UK or Americas, I'm unable to access it, it just shows the preset themes.
Only China region works, but without an Chinese ID, I can't buy anything.
I can't even customized the themes.
However, the same Huawei account on a Huawei P30 Pro, can access everything in all regions, but themes, access online music etc.
So I would like help regarding this.
Secondly I've installed Google services (using youtube video by John Wang, followed for Huawei mate 40 pro) , but my Google play store doesn't detect my pre-installed apps, so I can't get any updates.
Also having old version of play store/ services means no Google payments and some apps don't work
Thirdly, blocking play protect notification via video methods, also block out notification from other apps, so any way around that?
I've found a workaround, for themes, I can change my region to China, download nd apply free themes, and then chance account region back.
However you can't buy anything unfortunately.
