Fossil vs. Huawei p40 pro Google Account - Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello,
I have Huawei p40 pro and Smartwatch Fossil Wear OS. I have Google Service installed. Everything works, I paired the watch with the phone. I can't only enter the Google Store on the watch because there is a problem adding a Google Account. When copying or opening a new account, an error message pops up. Does anyone have an idea how to solve this?

You cant I'm afraid. No GMS, no wear account. You can pair and use it but no Playstore apps.
I gave up eventually and used my Huawei gt watch.
If anyone can, I'm interested too

I have GSM installed. Everything works except the Google account on the watch. An error occurs: an error occurred while communicating with the Google server

Same for me, worked fine on mate 20 pro and p20 pro
Anyone else experiencing this? Or have s fix to it?
I now get a different message: "this account is using a custom passphrase. This is not supported at the moment" (translated from german, will not be 100% correct)
Anyone have a fix for this yet? Very annoying.
Same here. Google Smart lock for passwords is not working. Also Huawei smart passwords isn't working too. It was terrible to remember all the usernames and passwords for all the app.

After GMS install, what works/doesn't work?

Hello
I'm about to get a P40 Pro.
Just to go there with open eyes: assuming I install GMS successfully following one of the guides in this form, what limitations are left? If any.
Google pay works?
Bank apps?
Netflix?
...
Just to know what I am getting into
Thanks
Netflix should work but you're gonna get crap, non-HD quality because of Widevine L3 DRM. So I wouldn't bother with Netflix on this phone.
Google Pay - haven't tested so I can't tell if it works, but probably not.
Banking apps - some work, some don't. Better do research whether your banking app works on this phone. I got lucky and mine works even without GMS.
Overall, I don't think installing GMS on P40 is worth it. Mainly because of notification issues - you don't get notifications for many apps. Recently I decided to "freeze" Google Services Framework to get my notifications back. If I ever feel like going back to GMS, I'll just unfreeze it without having to reinstall.
Authenticator works. Calendar notifications works.
Gmail notifications doesn't work for me.
All the banking apps I use are working.
Uber is working even with frozen Gsf.
Maps work, but the first time after a restart it takes a bit longer to detect location.

Does the freeze help better with the majority if not all of the notifications? The main app I need is Pushover and I can't get ANY notifications on it without loading the app, everything else has worked fine for what I need it for
Is there a definitive list of what does and what does not work on the P40 Pro especially interested in banking apps for the UK. I've used a P30 Pro since launch day but currently on a iPhone 11 Pro Max but desperately want to switch back to Android and the P40 Po. Can it be used daily without GSM in the UK?

Which banking app in particular are you interest in as I am from the uk also? I personally haven't had issues with my Monzo banking or the majority of the apps as I get notifications on whatsapp and fb messenger but there are some without working notifications without gms enabled
I mainly use Nationwide Santander Barclaycard and Tesco Club card. Is there any contact less payment options as well with the P40?

How are you finding using the P40 on a daily basis, would you recommend it and what are the pitfalls? I can pick one up for around £450 and it's so tempting to give it a go.
tbh the only apps im missing is messages (rcs chat isn't missed till you dont have it haha), and photos. if notifications and chat worked for messages id probably attempt to download gms for that alone
For messages the notifications are working, rcs not even after installing Google carrier services.
But the main issue o had was contacts stopped showing there, and sometimes it just showed the numbers, no names

I do not care about Gmail since I connected mail and calendar via Outlook.
Notification works for most type of massages but in my case not for banking apps
I did not test GooglePay
NFC payment works for Santander app but not for ING app
Generally in my case I', very glad fo have GMS back mainly because of AndroidAuto and Google Home and Spotify which can stream to my audio devices with chromecast build in. Those things I missed a lot and therefore decided to downgrade fro 147 do 131, install GMS and upgrade back to 147. So far all works with some issuses (notifications + no NFC in ING app)

I did not cast from YT, but I can check if it works.
I cast music from spotify to:
- google chromecast audio
- polk magnifi soundbar
- 2x JBL Link 20 paired in stereo
which were already set up in Google Home on my P20 before I installed GMS on P40 pro.
In first approach after installation of GMS I used phone clone to move apps and it did not work. In Spotify there was no device to which I could cast.
I wiped the phone and in second approach I installed all apps from play store. First Spotify and in Spotify I could immediatelly see my devices. After that I installed Google Home and and I could see all my setings without any problem.
In first approach I used tutorial in spanish - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utQ9q7pCGEM&feature=youtu.be
In second approach I used other tutorial which in my opinion is more structured and clear - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fTIZFehwlw
Both methods works for me.
I also installed Google Family Link and Adobe scan and it also works.
Been using P40 Pro with GMS and frozen GSF for over 2 weeks now. Everything works, all notifications, all apps (about 250) that I had in my previous Samsung phone work fine. All bank apps, payment apps and bank id (those that we use here in Sweden), smart home apps, news apps, social media apps, Google photos, You Tube Vanced all work fine. Had to re-pair my smartwatch (Wear OS) with the P40 Pro without reset (search here on XDA for the procedure). Now it works fine too. All notifications, videos and interactions on the watch work fine. The only apps I didn't get to work - Google Pay, Samsung Pay (of course ).

Recreate Google account

Hi guys.
A few days ago I needed to change my main account Google password. After that, I lost connection from my device to Google, even YouTube Vance lost its connection.
The only solution I've found was uninstalling and reinstalling Microg.
Now I have YouTube Vance working, but my cellphone not. I have a second account on my device.
My question is: how can I add a second account on my device?
When I try it via Google accounts on my device, I go through all process (add email, add password, EULA) then I get a communication error with Google servers.
That metod works on my P40 pro, probably will works on your phone too.
The procedure starts on min. 6:38.

Does M$ Authenticator work on Huawei Mate 40/50 Pro

Does M$ Authenticator work on Huawei Mate 40/50 Pro phones, and does it works with also Google Authenticator?
By working I mean normal receiving messages, in real time, and with push notifications. I know there was talk that it was not working. But at the end of last year there were hints that M$ Authenticator could be installed after all. Does anyone have experience and how it works now? Does it need GSpace for push messages to work ?
I need 2FA with M$ Authenticator (for work), so that the messages must arrive in a timely manner, otherwise I have to repeat the login process... and after 3 time, the account is locked...
Hi, yes it is working, I use it for my work email (outlook), and to authenticate new device on my work network.
Works straight, no need of virtualization

Question Adding a supervised (minor) Google account to galaxy watch 5

Hi,
My daughter has received a present - a Galaxy Watch 5. He is 10, and she has a Google supervised account that I manage through the Family Link. Her phone is also supervised by the Family Link. When setting up the phone with her, I could not move the Google account from the phone to the watch - it keeps saying that the google account cannot be moved.
As a result, she cannot use Play Store to install additional applications on the watch.
Is there a way to set the google account on the watch somehow? Or is the only way to get the apps to sideload these somehow to the watch?
Thanks
