For google play store, just install it from App Center, just search the app there, or
you can browse to https://m.apkpure.com/id download the apkpure app, and download google play store from there.
after you install google play store, download all the google environment apps (Google play services, Carrier service, google play games, chrome browser, gboard, google map, Sound Amplifier, Assistant, Clock, contacts, etc.)
and try to install gcam mod for better night shoot
and for some carrier , you need to edit the APN to use the 4G network (I have some problem from 3 network before and need to edit the APN, but for Smartfren and Telkomsel is working flawles :good: )

Anyone updated to 7.0 from L09C432B180 yet?

As title says, anyone done it?
I had lots of troubles with my phone when I got it. ****ty battery and lag. Found a thread here and manually updated to 180, and all the problems where gone. But I have since not gotten any updates. And it says nothing in the phones update notes for the update I manually installed(Probably normal after a manual update). Just worried that now I won't get any OTA for newer updates. It's a Norwegian phone. No phones here are branded.
Hi.
EVA L09 or VIE L09 ?
I done for VIE (P9 Plus)
I followed this thread (allready for VIOE L09)

Found here
I've tried that and can't get it to show me a 2+GB version. It still sticks to 1.3nGB, downloads and fails when doing the pre-install check.
Only difference is I'm on B180 not B181 (EVA-L09C432B180).
hi care app and huawei id. in hicare is operating system section, where you need to be able to sign up for nuget!
Update: Tried again. Downloaded and installed, but I lost a number of apps (camera, system update etc) and doing a reset, I'm now stuck on NRD90M test keys as a build.
What's most annoying is that the default keyboard is gone, so I can only enter text using Google voice (and that doesn't let me log in to Google) so the phone is as good as bricked until I can figure out if I want to waste time trying to side load a keyboard etc.
Can't even do a full download/restore as that fails.
What the heck happened? The advice from gamingprod02 seemed solid, but can cause big problems!
Install full b136 by dload... No choice I guess..

Private Files keep asking permissions - Mi 9 Lite - Miui 12

Hi all,
Private Files keep asking permissions to write the internal memory and SD Card even if I click "grant permission" at the bottom (the blue button).
The same option inside "Gallery" works fine and doesn't ask for permissions.
What can I do to fix this problem (except for the factory reset)?

Thank you for the screenshots @skorpiodav That is really off, I don't know especially this app, but I have deactivated a lot of the stuff from xiaomi, because it is trying to connect "home" and I haven't had such requests on my system, usually I have to enter the pin and that works. But let's see if we can find a solution, sorry for replying so late, letz see:
1. Did you install the app?
2. If not,
2. A) did the app come with a specific rom?
2. B) or are you using the standard rom?
3. Which * are you using?
3.1 *Internetserviceprovider,
3.2 *Android
3.3 *Miui ?
3.4 *Version? (Global, Europe, Chinese)
4. Are there specific restrictions in your country?
In which country / area are you?
5. do you really need the app / function?
Thank you for helping me, it is very appreciated.

How To Guide Install Google Mobile Services (GMS) on EMUI 11 or Harmony OS 2.0 W/O rolling back to EMUI (Test Feb 2023)

You can find the video instructions in the following:
Video of successfully installed Google apps:
*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***
Do NOT give up if your first attempt fails. Factory reset is recommended if failure happens, try again and I am sure you can get it done by following this guide, however you will need to make sure you follow all the steps one by one, and do NOT try jumping. Even the button of "OK" , "Open", "Done" or selecting app from Muti Task Manager instead of re-enter apps from the Home screen at different timing or sequence may impact the result.
This method has been tested on the following devices (model# ending with ANxxx or ALxxx after "-") running on Harmony OS 2.0:
Mate X Series: X2
Mate 40 Series: 40 / 40 Pro / 40 Pro+
Mate 30 Series: 30 4G / 30 5G / 30 Pro 4G / 30 Pro 5G,

38. return to home screen and restart your device
39. open “Playstore” and check if everything works fine
40. GMS installation is done : )
Thank you ThatsYisy!!
I'm guessing if I need to add more google accounts I just need to: “Googlefier”, select “05 then start from step 17 again.
Have you tested this with a gsuite account that requires more security than normal gmail accounts?
Thanks
If I already installed gms, but missing push notifications, do I need to start from the beginning or can switch files... to yours (google play services, framework)...
Thanks

Hi Simon, you are correct. Gsuite account is tested in G Classroom with no issues. However, i found that if you have downloaded and upgraded variety of system apps, directly running 05 and restart from step 17 may still result in glitches of running Gmaps. Factory reset is recommended.
Dear ThatsYisy,
please let me know... your thoughts.. I already installed google with googlefier, but some applications are not working and missing push notifications... if I uninstall google play store and follow your steps from the point 21...
I fully understand this is my responsibility, only main.... I have mate x2 harmony 2.0.0.168
Is this method work on Mate 40 pro international (NOH-NX9)version?

push is still a known issue for some apps that are fully relying on Firebase. For a temp. fix, you can either download the app from Huawei App Gallery if it is available, then the push notification should work fine; or you may need to keep the app running at the background. I know neither is the good solution, but unfortunately I do not have better suggestions right now and still working on it.
How about the matepad 11, I tried that way but "谷歌服务助手" says that my device is unsupported
I keep getting my device isn't certified messages. What am I doing wrong?
Device is not play protect certified after completing all steps. I'll reset several times not sure if I'm missing a step. I have a Mate x2

if you are sure that you have followed all the steps in the video, then it is due to the random GSF# you received in your device. Unfortunately, i would recommend you factory reset the device and continue to work on it once again.

recommend factory reset then re-try again.
if you want to try shortcut, you can go back to Googlefier, select the last option (broom icon) to uninstall all the installation files, then start again from step 16. If it the problem remains, then factory reset and restart from the begining.

Mate 40 pro gms

Hello guy i managed to get gms semi working, I dont know what to do next
Tried everything i dont have any ideas anymore hope somebody can use this and make it working
Playstore gets data but u cant download it crashes
Play services is version 7.3.29
Services framework is version 4.4.4(newer doesnt work)
Account manager version 7.1
Youtube works with account but sometimes crashes
Perhaps if you share the steps someone can use that info and make it happen.
Okay
1. Installed lzplay
2. Installed googlefier
3.installed only microg gms from googlefier and logged in with my account
4.I disabled microg gms trough adb so that account stays loged in while uninstalling(there is tutorial how to disable apps)
5. Installed Services framework version 4.4.4
6. Installed google account manager version 7.1
7. Installed google play services version 7.3.29
8. Instaled Playstore
9. If playstore wont open just go airplaine mode and delete data of playstore and services framework
Playstore opens and gets all data u can search everything but when u click download it crashes if u want working youtube u need to update google play services to this one i put here but when u install this apk i get error that this device is not play certified
Edit: uploaded all apks that i used,except play services 7.3.29 you will have to download it from apkmirror(i doesnt want to upload)
Please specify: China only device with Harmony, not with EMUI.
On Chinese models, GMS should be fully functional, as far as I know.
Well, as i've searched on youtube it's complicated to sideload GMS on HarmonyOS for chinese devices, no matter if it's Mate 40 Pro or P50 Pro, it's complicated...

But in the video says EMUI 12 and NOH-NX9, the Chinese model it's not the same as far as I know.

it is a big step ahead, hope someone will find out the complete solution. how about downgrade to EMUI 11 and try the steps one more time?
Hi!
I'm using Mate 40 Pro (C432 - HW-EU => NOH-N29).
It's rather easy to downgrade using the HiSuite from EMUI 12 down to 11.
In my case I'm setting up the Hi Suite Proxy (3.3) downloaded from it's official page:
Releases · ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
Modifying HiSuite and manipulating it's connection data to install Roms before they officially get released. - ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
github.com
Just install HiSuite, Hi Suite Proxy, patch the HiSuite, start up the phone and connect.
I additionally turned on the Programmer Mode in the phone.
Once connected via HiSuite, in the UPDATE section, except the UPGRADE (if available) it allows to install another variant -> in my case it's allowing to DOWNGRADE (Roll-back) down to EUMI 11 (in my case: 11.0.0.253).
IMPORTANT - it's deleting/erasing all the data, so before ANY actions it's wise to backup the files on the phone.
After downgrading I was trying many methods:
- LZPlay / G-Play,
- Googlefier,
- MicroG (several variants, including the one where it allows to use different 'ID's' -> i.e. Nexus X5 (which worked partially in opposite to other sollutions).
- LightHouse -> variant available on AppStore (Huwaei) isn't working, but the one downloaded from this forum did allow me to create the Google account.
Unfortunately any mixes/fixes of GPS, GFS, Account Managers, Google Play Store - are recognizing and forgeting the accounts, while attempting to remove the MicroG or LightHouse.
Perhaps you can help by explaining how to freeze the MicroG (by ADB?) and I'll be able to move-on.
My goals are:
- make the Android Auto to run;
- make the GApps -> Google Assistant, Chrome (with sync), Google Calendar to work;

How To Guide Install Google Play Services on Honor Magic 3 Pro [UI 6.0 Downgradable] Android 11 Packages

I manage to make GMS worked natively with some limitations (push notifications using Google FCM and Map showing on some apps which can be solved by downloading those app from AppGallery).
I have been updated the file to Honor GMSv2.zip to most of file are Android 11 (API30) and recent working version possible. My phone run:
Magic UI 5.0.0.189 now (Mar 1 2022 security)
I uninstalled the system update to avoid update to UI 6.0
no possible solution yet for 6.0 for gms installation, Google will be removed on first reboot on 6.0

This method works but with alot of limitations,..
After Magic UI 6 (BETA already installed) is not even allowing this method now.

What kind of limitations do you refer for? I am using Magic ui 5 with google service almost perfect without any restrictions.
I don't get the ui 6 yet, but if you got struck because G app logo (the google assistance), you only need to reinstall old backup app before you restore it.

No google maps on other apps like Google Photos, Uber etc. Of course limitations on notification.
Magic UI 6 beta, couldn't install with GMS installed, hence needed to reset..
Now, after restorring from old backup, I get G logo but unable to open it

It should have worked on old version of backup like Huawei. Be sure you have a change of date before restore (it is important step! )
The version of mine that worked is com.hihonor.koBackup-11.5.1.348-230501348.apk
If it is still not work out, It might be Honor phone updates to android 12 incompatible with the assistance app, you may downgrade to install it.

I think it is not compatible with Android 12. HONOR suite doesn't allow to downgrade either. I tried to restore with 10, 11 version of backup apk including restoration from Honor suite too

Have you also tried to uninstall and install backup.apk from adb as well? If so, I also out of ideas to make it work if could not downgrade it.

I found a guide video that make sense for you as it skipped the google assistance app backup step completely from chinese guy who also using Honor phone to do it.

The thing with this and most of other method without G installation is, it doesn't retain the Google account after uninstalling MicroG, i can't see any google account even after adding via MicroG

You can share screenshot of G app error for future solution. You need to until stable release to see if there any methods shared that work on Magic UI 6.

yeah, i am waiting for some solution or installation method for GMS on Magic UI 6. Let's see if someone is coming up on this.
I am using previous method to install GMS. my only problem is I can't update GMS because its is a system app now, P50 doesnt have this problem. IS there any other workaround for those system apps thing. P50 works fine with no errors or notification and all Google files are uptodate. Honor Magic3 Pro freeze when google wants to update gms when installing gboard.

To clearify, the previous method is just extended and also needless for Honor magic 3 pro where it only need to clear data on Framework to fix the error.
First of all, to update google services, you should go to play store and turn off app auto-update from the settings first.
The steps to update or uninstall are here:
-update using unsupported version for Google services (android 11 version any packages)
-reboot, You will see uninstall button
-Install any packages you want
The files are attached below! the second packages is 20.30.65 that is work great, you can try other version on android 10 for GMS to work.

As you mention, P50 is based on Android 10, and Magic 3 pro is on Android 11.
You can try to update the Google Services Framework from 10 to 11 to make it work flawelessly, still, some limitation on Map and push.
The procedures are the same as updating Google Play Services.
Thank you. Very clear.
The method i used was to insert GSF to google account, which allowed me to update smoothly on P50.
hi,
I tried on my Honor Magic 3 Pro Plus (Ultimate) but I can't uninstall the Google Services Framework. My phone can't fix the Google Play Services error message: this device isn't Play Protect certified
