Hello all, upon following a video on Youtube submitted by a John Wang, his explanation wasn't 100 percent clear but good enough for me to follow it to get Google play on my Mate 40 RS which should work the same for the Mate 40 Pro/ Pro +/ Mate 40 as they are all based on the same EMUI OS. There are some caveats as in still issues with notifications seeming to be delayed unless the app is open etc, Android Auto does work but can be kind of buggy and of course no Google Pay. If you guys are interested in me making a tutorial for you with the files you'll need please let me know and I'd be more than happy to create one!
I should note too, that I have not had the google play protect error at all, and I am on day 2 of using Google Play on it. So far so good, I can use Youtube/Music/Gmail just fine
Of course. Please make one please It would help a lot. I'm planning to buy a chinese M40 RS also.
But please make clear that this only works for chinese FW version!
A tutorial for this would be great! I tried to follow John Wang's tutorial but when I get to the part where you restore the backup app, it says I already have a newer version of the app installed. I've uninstalled the only version of the app I can find and I'm still getting the error message. Any ideas?
It may help to mention I'm based in the UK.
Cheers!

I was able to use the backup app that came with my phone and it seemed to restore just fine. Odd that what I read from others it only works for Chinese version like I got. Although I would like someone with international to try it.
Hello anyone tries any of this on international version of mate 40?

I would love a detailed, accurate, slow description of how to install Google on an international version.
It seems there is no solution to install GSM right now for non-Chinese Mate40s

The notifications of app in dual space work like in standard installation? I mean: gmail with push notifications working in dual space, if i have the phone in standby, when new mail will arrive, i will have a standard push notification from gmail? This is an important question.

Hi all,
This question is asking for global variant of Mate 40 Pro
Are there any method to install
1) Google Services Framework
2) Google Play Services
Then in Chrome browser address bar, key in play.google.com/store to download & install app ?
No need LZPlay
Any way to do it ?

hi, I used to always have a call confirm app installed. I have done too many call i didn't wanna do without it. but I can't find any that work for my new Huawei P20 PRO.
I guess it's because of the android version? none worked on android 8 and now android 9. I've tried many from the store, and I've made searches, i just can't find any app that works.
does anyone know of a modded app that works ?
thanks
I ended up installing 2 apps. True Phone, and Easy Call Confirm. 2 apps together work for what i wanted.

mod the xml manifest file in the apk
<manifest android:installLocation="preferExternal" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar" package="PACKAGENAME.apk" platformBuildVersionCode="26" platformBuildVersionName="8.0.0">
<supports-screens android:anyDensity="true" android:largeScreens="true" android:normalScreens="true" android:smallScreens="true" android:xlargeScreens="true"/>
Swapp version code where necessary code 26 or 27 and version to 8.0.0 or 8.#.# ect
I just received my Mate 20 Pro and ran into the same issue. The call confirm app does only react once but even then it does open the main screen of the app. So instead of allowing or blocking a call, it either does nothing at all, or it opens the app screen itself.
Hey guys,
I'm thinking of getting Poco X3 however I feel in love with Google Recorder app on my Pixel 2 and as a student, it's hard to live without all the audio AI transcription magic. I know previously Google Recorder transcript option didn't work on MIUI 11 devices. Does it work with Poco's MIUI 12?
Much appreciated if somebody can confirm it.
Best regards,
I'm on MIUI global 12.0.2
Not supported in PlayStore, tried from ApkMirror and the unofficial one from AndroidFileHost both found here:
https://www.xda-developers.com/download-latest-google-recorder-app-android/
And they both crash

Thanks @bacitoto. Good to know. Have you tried the newest version of the apk? I've seen that some older, unofficial versions are are more likely to work on non-Pixel devices such as version 0.5.257343194 (gosh, what a version number).

Ok. And most importantly, the transcribe feature doesn't work, right? Well, thanks a bunch. If there only would be a way to mod the app to work...

Transcribe also doesn't work.
I'll try and find a working version, because this is actually a really cool app/feature. If not we'll need to wait for custom roms
Yeah, it's magically the way it works. I mean, anything that you listen to: complicated lecture, zoom meeting at work etc becomes instantly transcribed and searchable. This app is pure gold. Especially now with the endless Zoom calls. Instead of having to take notes and later reviewing recordings u really can get all the info u want right away. The app works very well even with people speaking with heavy accents etc
This article explains the issue with MIUI:
"Android software without significant modifications to the TextView component in the Android framework. It seems that the Google Recorder app fails to work properly on certain devices because those devices are running software with modifications to TextView."

It works flawlessly with RR Rom
Hi all,
I know I might have very limited feedback here but I'll try anyway.
As the title says, I'm having an issue with one app I use quite a bit; Orange TV. This app is provided by the French Network Operator Orange to its customers through the French Play store. It allows access to the same TV and Replay channels as the set-top box from the operator.
Now this app works fine on my previous devices (Mate 20 Pro and OnePlus 7T Pro on Android 10) as well as my sons Pixel 3XL (Android 11). On the Pixel 5 (Android 11, Nov update, no root) however, it force closes each time the video is supposed to play back. I can navigate just fine inside the app but as soon as I hit the "Watch" button, I get :
App goes into landscape mode
App displays the player UI
App shows a spinning wheel (buffering video)
App force closes
Have tried reinstalling and all but no change.
So before going through the hassle of Factory Reset I'd be curious if any frenchies here on XDA did / could test (you'll need an account with Orange France) and tell we if it works for them.
On a side note : Netflix and Amazon Prime video do work just fine for me.
Thanks.
Lutz
Hello,
I had the same problem with the Bouygues TV app.
It was simply not yet Android 11 compatible.
A Google store update later, everything runs fine now.
I know it's not really helping but maybe you can just wait for an update...

Thanks for your feedback.
Indeed, those carrier apps are not always up to date and my 1st thought was the same. What bothers me most however is that it does work fine on the Pixel 3xl of my son also running Android 11.
If it was tied to Android 11 in general I guess an update could been expected shortly. If it is however more limited like it seems the case here, I might have to wait forever.
Just got my mi 11 ultra China Rom....installing google play store is easy etc.
But one weird thing....all my past google purchase is forgotten. Asking me to re purchase them all again. ????
Why?
Really? That's very weird.
I suppose you logged in using your Google account that had purchased everything, right ?
I suppose so...but it's not happening. LoL first time I encounter such issue.....
Maibe check the app google play store ( and google related ) permissions ( allow everything ) .
Also check if you have the other google related services installed ( framework , play services etc ) i know that google relies on several services in order to work ok.
Will try to post on Monday if i encounter any issues on my china variant.
Cheers !
Installed Google Service last night and pretty sure it's still asking me to repurchase before I hit the bed.....but this morning...vola !! everything back to norm, no longer ask me to repurchase.
Thanks
Do you intend to keep the Chinese firmware or flash to the global?
So far I don't have problems with China rom. Only one small thing with notification on the rear screen ( not showing all tough enabled ) but it works in other rims so must be something from my side..
Until I encounter serios issues, will not flash anything else
Did you run any debloat scripts or anything yet?
absolutely nothing yet, just uninstalled several Chinese apps from the xiaomi china store app .
Will see if i have any issues in the future and consider it
Have you already tested google pay?
Some people say it is working normal with the chinese version and other say it won't work.
I am a little bit confused because of that..

Is there anyway to disable the Chinese assistant stuff in miui launcher ?
I don't want to break anything yet or I might not be able to finish unlock and flash global rom
Tap and hold the home screen , settting, disable vault and search tap

That worked quite well! There is no Chinese search engine or vault anymore!
Is it possible to put Google now on the miui launder where the Chinese vault used to be ?(swipe left from home screen)

I used the phone yesterday for a lot of payments with my phone using my banking app and they work flawlessly ( there are a lot of customizations for the app itself, depending on your app of course )
May I know how to install Google playstore in Mi 11 Ultra?
So, I have my Mate X2 almost here,
I currently have some GMS working on the XS, if I backup my phone using HiSuite...
will my system apps like the modded play services, etc come over?
or will I have to actually install GMS the long way?
Has anyone tried this?
Gms services will not be back up, its a system....apps......
