Probably, we are going to need to wait until the non domestic beta... If I'm not mistaken in the domestic version of emui 11 there is no problem with installing GMS, but in the international it's not possible.

You can't. HarmonyOS is only for China models with no release plan or dates announced for the rest of the world.

Hey guys. I have a MatePad Pro (the original one which was released in 2019), which I have purchased during my trip to China.
I had converted it to GMS first thing when I unpacked the device using Googlefier.
Yesterday I updated to Harmony OS and the GMS is still working perfectly fine. I was able to open Google Play, install apps, etc. same as before, zero issues.
So if you already have GMS installed on your phone / tablet, you can continue using it after updating to harmonyOS.
I hope this helps

i just had my mate20 pro updated to harmony os, and all my previously intalled gsm apps works perfectly fine. been testing the apps and didnt have any errors so far.

Sad I really wanted to try it

Can you actually INSTALL the GMS on a device running Harmony OS or can you only CONTINUE USING previously installed GMS apps?

Huawei announces Nougat update plans

Huawei has announced Nougat update plans for its smartphones. The Android 7 update for Huawei devices will arrive in the form of version 5.0 of the Chinese company's EMUI skin. The roll-out will begin sometime in Q1, 2017, with the Huawei Mate 8 and P9 getting the update first, followed by the P9 Plus, P9 lite, nova, and nova Plus.
The new EMUI 5.0, Huawei claims, is more efficient, secure, and user friendly. It "significantly cuts down on the number of steps needed to achieve the desired function," the company says in a press release, adding that "furthermore, the user can reach 90% of the core functions in just two to three clicks."
The new UI also lets users choose between the standard layout and an app drawer. "Additionally, users can jump between their professional and personal lives effortlessly with profiles now being able to run in parallel – no switching of phones necessary."
Coming back to the update, those rocking a Huawei P9, P9 Plus, P9 Lite or Mate 8 will be able to participate in the beta testing as well.

How stable is the beta? I'd love trying Nougat, but not if it ducks everything up. (That wasn't a typo, I'm just hilarious.)

I think TWRP only needs an unlocked bootloader and adb - not root, since you can unroot a rooted device and keep your custom recovery

Yea, then you better wait for final release. I'm rooted but still waiting for final release as well... beta is only ok for secondary phones in my opinion, not the daily one.... Let's hope it gets here soon

Google Play for Emui 9.1, android 9.0, China Rom. Huawei MediaPad M5 lite 8"

Hi guys.!
Can someone help me?
I'm having trouble looking for a working GSM or Play store for my Huawei MediaPad M5 lite 8" Emui 9.1, android 9.0, China Rom.
Please help me install GApps in my device.
Thanks!
Hi everyone!
I also have the same problem, I tried many methods (from using GMS installer, to manually installing everything) but none seem to work.
I fear we might need a root to be able to install everything, but the tablet is so new that I am not sure if we can.
Hi, I have the same issue. Bought 2 of these for kids in China but I spent a few hours on forums, researching and much more time by actually installing the GMS with no success. I am able to install Google Chrome and a few other apps which don't require Google Services.
Furthest I have gone so is GMS installed but Google Play app freezing when trying to verify my credentials. Unfortunately Huawei has officially stopped providing the root unlock codes (that's what I have learned elsewhere) and I don't know how to get around this.

Honor play - Arcore support

Hi, does anyone have any luck with enabling arcore support on honor play? Honor 10 which has the same processor is supported also honor 8x with slower processor also has the support, so I dont think there should be any HW issues with running it...
I have download arcore services from apk mirror. Installation waa without issues, but when I tried to run any arcore app, app crashed. (the apps were also downloaded from apkmirror)
Does anyone know how to make it to work? Do I need to unlock my bootloader for the solution?
Thanks for all answers.
PS.: I hope Huawei will do somethong with this problem and wont throw it away like the update to Android 10 because of hw issues...
I can't recall the particular version of Arcore that worked for me in the past. You just have to check for older version,

ColorOS 12 did pre-installed Google services framework. What you need to do is just download Google Play Store APK and install it
I have my OP10 Pro on standby for the same reason. I've been scouring the internet for days now, so far all countries have the OP10 promo page but their devices and support pages are not updated yet.
It'd be great if the first person to find the OxygenOS ROM comes back to this post and shares it with everyone. I'll try to make a short tutorial of the upgrading process, which hopefully can be done easily through About Device > Version > Trial versions.

Use Oxygen Updater to download EU, Global or India ROMs. They're already available there.
