i just flash CM7 and gapps..but i cant have google maps..i search at market...cant be download also..
please help me...where i can get google map??
i simply type in google map in Android Market
then click install
done
maybe you just need to install Android Market spoof app, to make it think it is in USA
Get the gapps.zip from CM wiki... it'll contain the market (or get the market.apk itself).

i already flash gapps...i already have market..when i search google map at market...it is not available...
In Malaysia, updates to google maps are not available for some ****ed up reason. It is very frustrating how google shuns markets outside the US. I have no idea why we dont have Google+, Blogger, Chrometophone (the list goes on)
However a workaround(bug) to this is just to wait for another update to come along in your android market. When this happens, there will be an option to update ALL apps. Choose this one and google maps will update and install as well. Just be patient, or download an app that gets updates frequently

Ever thought about it's not Google mocking you but the government restricting the market in MY to get certain apps?
Especially those apps you mentioned leave an impression that tools enabling quick sharing of opinions are blocked.
Market enabler? Tried that? Fake one of the US providers and try searching again. If not, google that .apk and install it manually...

Use market enabler then and fake a US carrier.
i am an owner of a nexus s (rooted BUT stocked no rom/kernel/nothing)
Htc Desire
LG optimus one
and i have a strange problem with the google maps application
although i can see a notification that i can update the maps app when i try to all i get is an error "this video is not available in your country"
yes i know google maps is NOT a video but that's what i get in the app page
here's a screenshot i got
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
i live in greece..and i had ALL the latest updates to all my 3 phones..without using hacks/alternative apps (market enabler) etc etc..
but for the newest version 5.11 i think i simply can not update..
is there a know problem with greece or other countries?
i already posted on the google maps support and all i got back as feedback is to re-install the app witch i already did..
also add to that the google + applications gives me the same error!!!!
i too have the same problem since i have installed CM7 on my phone!
I think there is a video in the previews of this app and apparently its blocked in your country. The weird part is that the message removes the update and uninstall buttons. Try logging in to your account from your PC and go to the Android market and try installing from there. It should work.

It's almost a nightmare.
Now and then I see a "1" on the samsung apps icon.
That should mean that 1 app (previously downloaded from Samsung App) has been updated and I could update it through Samsung Apps in the page of my downloaded files.
That's how it should work.
Recently I've been receiving these kind of notification also for apps that I never downloaded from Samsung Apps and that so didn't show up on my downloaded files. With some luck I discovered that some of these updates where referred to pre-installed apps on my GNote 10.1 such as Polaris Office and PS Touch: searching for these apps and opening their page I could see the "update" button.
But for the last update notification I don't know where to look.
It seems that something is missing in Samsung Apps. They tell you that you have an update but they don't tell you what update you have, and there's no way to find out and trig the update.
Any suggestion?

I understand, that's annoying - I got that 1 "red" icon on Samsung App box yesterday updated the app and thankfully that 1 "red" icon is gone. I hope you figure it out soon - good luck
I'm glad that I didn't start using that Samsung app... I actually disabled the app

same problem on my devices. I think it's belong to uninstalled apps. It's annoying but nothing tragically. You install app again, update, uninstall...but every time with update till Samsung repair it.

same here... trued all possible pre-installed apps, but nothing...
in addition I also had a PS Touch update that was not notified...
personally I have disabled most of the samsung apps (like the Hubs) but I will keep Samsung Apps cos I like both Poalris and PS Touch
I've finally found out the mysterious app that was notified (as updated) but wasn't showed in my page od Samsung Apps.
It's Papyrus.
Strange thing is that this is not a pre-installed app.
It's actually present in both Google Play and Samsung Apps.
I think I downloaded it a couple of weeks ago from Google Play (but I'm not sure about that, maybe I downloaded it from Samsung Apps).
Anyway yesterday Samsung Apps started notifying me about an update, even if not showing me what app was to update as Papyrus wasn't present in the Samsung Apps page of my downloaded apps.
So I hope that Samsung Apps will become more smart and clear in the future.
Anyway the mysterious apps that showed up in the last days with a 1 red circle and didn't show on the Samsung Apps page for being actually updated are (so far):
- Polaris Office
- Photoshop Touch
- Papyrus
(maybe this list can help someone else and also be "updated" - no pun intended - by other users)
After "finding" them and updating them now they are in my downloaded apps page so the problem won't probably occur again (at least not with these apps).
AAAArrrrgggghhhh
I spoke too soon.... and the infamous nasty and vengeful "1-red circle" has come back again!!!! Just after a few hours of a new sense of carefree freedom... it was too good to be true....
What's the app to update? Where is it? Where? where? where?
I'm beginning to think that you can't beat it.:crying:
If I only had the gut to swipe Samsung Apps and all the apps offered by it away (as some wise guy has already done...)
(but I need and like a couple of apps that are there and nowhere else...)
Any further help?
Reading this topic I found out that there are some updates that can only be done with Samsung apps, so I updateded them. Now if I open Samsung apps I also have the red notification, but it does not bother me in any way because I rarely open this. I think it's a bug with the app, so until they fix it I'll just check manually for updates on the two apps from Samsung.

Have you noticed that there is an in app purchase that allows you to draw shapes and type text in papyrus?
Tried to purchase using Samsung apps on note 10.1 but does not let me. I tried to buy on my phone and it let me pay by carrier i.e. will be charged to my phone bill. The stupid thing is with Samsung apps you have to purchase the in app on each device. It does not let me download/apply to the note 10.1
Last time I buy any apps from Samsung.

Last update
My updates "red-circle" counter was 2 this morning. :crying:
But, rather magically and serendipitously, today I managed to return to the "no red circle" status.
What were the updates I did need to make?
These 2:
Polaris Office
AllShare Play
Mysteriously AllShare Play appeared for the first time on the "My page - Downloads" with an update button (I suppose this is a pre-installed app as I never downloaded it before). After updating it it disappeared again from the "My page - Downloads" but the update red cirlce counter was also decreased by 1.
Then, updating Polaris Office made the counter come back to zero.
Another quirk instance is with Papyrus.
I've updated it through Google Play to version 0.3 (there is called "Papyrus beta")
In SamsungApps it's reported as version 0.2.4 (there's called "Papyrus").
After the update through Google Play I lost the possibility (that I had before) to buy, as an in-app purchasing, the Tool Pack, that, as I understand, is an exclusive of Samsung Apps (see the FAQ in Papyrus "Settings-Help and Support".
So, as far as I can tell, the sharing of the same app between Google Play and Samsung can be another real nightmare...
Furthermore my experience seems to confirm that the notification process for Samsung pre-installed apps is very buggy and ridden with unpredictable delays .

Ok... It might be repetitive, I come from the LG / Sammy world, so I am new to the Huawei universe...
I've been reading through a lot of threads, like a lot hahaha, I just want to get one last confirmation before I order it (still not sure if I'm gonna get the L29 or L00, although the 6gb/128 is really interesting to me) .
I know people like @duraaraa are working hard to get us something rolling! And thanks for that! I know some other devs (from other phones) are wanting to jump into this pool, so this could become and interesting devs device in the very close future.
But I have some questions, or more like confirmations to ask:
Huawei now really "unofficially" released the GMS for the Chinese / Hong-Kong version of the m9 (4gb/32, 4gb/64, 6gb/128 and 6gb/256). For the users on the AL00, can you please confirm the following :
- you have a 100% English rom or other mulingual possibility (meaning no trace of Chinese writing or other, except maybe some Chinese apps)
- Google playstore, all apps are installable (swiftkey, nova launcher, etc..) and are working 100%
- push services (Gmail, exchange, etc..) are working 100%
- auto sync services (Dropbox, Google photos, etc...) are syncing with no issues
- that you are on the latest firmware and you think now that updates will bring no issues in the future
- do you really see a big difference with the extra 2gb of Ram or is it placebo
- if you do have issues, please tell me
- last but not least :which of the 2 you think will have more development? AL 29 or AL 00
- you have a 100% English rom or other mulingual possibility (meaning no trace of Chinese writing or other, except maybe some Chinese apps)
Yes. No Chinese writing except in Chinese apps.
- Google playstore, all apps are installable (swiftkey, nova launcher, etc..) and are working 100%
I don't have nova launcher, but swiftkey works. Everything is installable.
- push services (Gmail, exchange, etc..) are working 100%
Yes.
- auto sync services (Dropbox, Google photos, etc...) are syncing with no issues
Yes.
- that you are on the latest firmware and you think now that updates will bring no issues in the future
Yes, but without unlocking the bootloader you will only be able to install updates that Huawei wants you to install. Ergo, no betas.
- do you really see a big difference with the extra 2gb of Ram or is it placebo
How would I know? I only have 6GB version. It probably only matters if you use all the RAM.
- if you do have issues, please tell me
Screen touch responsiveness is not as good as other phones. Huawei has been adjusting it a lot from build to build. Hopefully they get it right soon.
- last but not least :which of the 2 you think will have more development? AL 29 or AL 00
With an unlocked bootloader, development will be the same for both. With locked bootloader, you currently have more options with AL00, because that's what I have so that's what I'm working with, and because Huawei has several versions of firmware which can be flashed to AL00, but only one which can be flashed to L29 at the moment. I think Huawei focuses mainly on China, so support of the Chinese phone will be better.
Well, thanks for that quick reply!
Can confirm all Duraaraa said. I got mine, had B109 with working g Google services and I uninstalled all the Google stuff, did OTA to B125. Then it offered B135 OTA so did that. After reboot I stalled GMS and Play store and all good. Had to install Google contacts from APK mirror, and had to go to permission manager and allow Google app as trusted and auto start to get OK Google functionality working but all good now.
Only issue I am having is a few apps won't install. For instance, the CBS watch TV app ... click on install from store and it starts download and the before it finishes store just closes. A couple games do this as well. Working on figuring it out.

@SWBgHz hi, I think to solve your issue with CBS watch TV app go to the play store app permission and make sure Storage have that permission on.
I got mine last Friday nice phone, software is really bad.
After i got everything working on mine. now play store will not work ...keep downloading. i did try everything and still not working.
I have few apps needs update , it is just downloading
I can not get notification from any app
it seems that i will have to factory reset.
I think you guys should download HI suit for back up and restore .
waiting for a better Rom.
Edit: Play store start behave normal again and its working fine.
still can not see notification from my major apps like gmail...etc
I had already tried adding additional permissions as well as setting Play store as trusted app but no joy. Just a few apps do same as CBS on, store closes during download phase.

Sure enough, storage wasn't allowed. Odd thing is I checked that and allowed all manually, or thought I did.

Make sure that Play Store has Storage permissions. That should fix your problem.

Abject lesson in checking things twice. I swear I did add permissions but such is life. Doh!

Morning Huawei users!!
I've been using a Huawei P40 Pro for just over two weeks, Been loving the device & I have found a little golden nugget of an app! Its called Petal Search : Find Apps So I had been using App Gallery, APK pure & Aptoid however I have managed to find a new app which basically hubs all of the apps into this one platform and allows downloads via this app without any real redirection for it, its also ad free. So from a set up/new user point of view this is definitely a key app , I would say its a must have! Especially as you don't need to go trawling the whole of the internet for links for up-to-date apps. :good:
Having used it now for the last couple of days and I've made the decision to remove both APK Pure and Aptoid, The Petal Search app is downloadable from Huawei App Gallery and that's it! You can even add it as a search bar widget on a home screen!
Setting it up is as straight forward as can be, Huawei App Gallery , Search for Petal Search, Install. Then once you're installed you are ready start searching.
Have you had any experience with Petal Search?
EAT.SLEEP.TECH.REPEAT
Really god Application
Hi,
I have actually been using this app and have to say it has one major benefit over More Apps. Its reach is very extensive. More Apps focused on most used apps and was a little limited. But Petal search allows for a bigger array of apps due to it pulling from major app platforms. 100% Recommend it
How have you found its overall functionality?
Petal Search is not available in some countries .. had to switch to United Kingdom
Edit ... just installed .. why is this actually any good? most apps just link to apkpure anyway .. might as well just use apkpure
now uninstalled.

I dont understand .. surely aurora or apkpure is easier than a third party directing (like petal) linking you back to apkpure .. apkpure is not much different to the google play store ... install app, wait for updates, install updates.

I get where you are coming from. Personally i like Petal as it draws from multiple app stores giving larger reach. I think it comes down to personal preference, but still a cool app.

Hi mate - do u use a P40 phone at the moment?
Has Aurora and APK Pure got everything you need? Need to look at Petal to see if itll make life easier or harder!
Aside from the obvious such as Gmail, certain apps from my Mate 20 Pro won't clone over (slightly weird as they did the first time I copied over but after resetting and cloning again, they won't).
I can't find them using any of the appstores either. Would my best bet be to Google the app names and apk and download them? I guess the limitation of this would be that they may not be that recent and I'd have to do periodic manual searches for new updates?

1. you mean google for the apk of the following appstores ... aurora, apkpure, aptoide, amazon appstore, f-droid ... install of these apk and enjoy your new google play store .. they are all pretty much the same.
2. install updates as per your new replacement 'google play store' .. just use apkpure, aurora, aptoide, amazon appstore, f-droid ... I have them all installed and update my apps using a different appstore everyday just for fun.
go to update, select apps, hit update, install .. same as the google play store.

Sorry, I was typing that on my phone whilst trying to walk the dog and think it got a bit muddled! I meant for apps that don't clone over and then cannot be found in those appstores? Would I then search for that app's apk in my browser and try and install it that way? Is that safe?
Weirdly, there were some apps that cloned over absolutely fine from my Mate Pro 20 first time and then I reset my P40 Pro and did it again and suddenly a bunch of apps wouldn't clone over... could this be to do with the fact that first time I just cloned over everything whereas second time, I only cloned over some specific settings as opposed to all?

interesting .. maybe because they are paid apps perhaps, then they are not available on the appstores?
what apps?
you wont be likely to find an apk if it is a paid app ... but if you can find an apk for a paid app, then i guess it will be a hacked high risk option from a dodgy website.
seems like phone-clone trouble shooting & testing is your best option .. or a GMS install.

I've just tried again but there are still a range of apps that won't copy over but it's weird as they did the first time I tried - they are not paid apps either. Some of them are betting apps and others are just general apps such as Tripadvisor, Uber, Citymapper...
Message is 'new phone cannot import this data'

That was more just an example as not all of those apps are available on those stores. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with location services as that appears to be a common denominator for a lot of those apps.

I don't know the answer but all your x3 examples are on the apkpure appstore .. so who cares about the phone-clone? is it better on an appstore, so you can update easily.

If you go on app gallery and download the petal app, ive just searched 'google' and theres a fair few on there that'll do it, diolch.
Thanks, it appears to be the betting apps (e.g. SkyBet that are a bit harder to find, or when found, don't work). I'm still confused as to why lots of the apps transferred over fine last time but won't now.
Going to reset the phone, install Micro-G, clone over my apps and see how I get on with the phone and notifications over the next couple of days and then decide whether I feel I need GMS in order to be able to enjoy the phone.
One thing I will say out of the box is that the battery does not seem as immense as my Mate Pro 20's was when I first bought that... although I suppose cloning everything over is probably quite heavy duty work.

That's the point I was trying to get to, why have loads of different apps when you can have 1 hubbed app.
