Hello,
I have bought huawei Mate 8 (4/64) chineese version on ibuygou.com for review in my country . I wish they had installed google play services etc but they didnt.
I have tried with Google installer - it didn't help (method the same as in xiaomi devices). Next I have tried to install google play services.apk and google play.apk from apkmirror, but after I have written my email and password, there was written that there is no connect or sth like this - try again later. I checked account menagment in settings if I could login in google account, but there was no such option.
So my question is: Has anyone method to install google play, google services on this smartphone? I hope that anyone can help me, I will be so grateful !
Open HiStore (The Huawei app store) and search google, the first little banner that pops up click it, there should now be a list of the google apps. Install them. Change some permissions and you should be good.
Also install the app in the internal storage in case you have a micro sd installed.
ok so the solution here works great but when downloading larger apps such as zombies run or NFS No limits the playstore would force close and download fails without warning.
has anyone experienced this? could it be to do with the download manager?

Mine had the same problem before i changed the rom to the international one. And i know some people having the same problem.. Still no solution...
no problem here with large apps on the international rom i guess its worth trying to flash the L29 rom...

Why do people say there is no solution?!
I've seen some guy encounter this issue and then find a solution for it, and now it works perfectly for him.
Something to do with system app and permissions i think was all.

Also, you need to give Play Store internal storage permission to download those large games, until I did that I had same issue as you with large game installs appearing to cause the Play Store to crash.

Appreciate this. I've tried trusting the entire google play store app which should allow everything but that didn't help. cleared data and stuff + reboot - nothing.
But seeing how someone did manage to solve it, I will give it another go before flashing. Thanks
solved. The UI is sort of confusing because I needed to bring up another (native?) permissions manager in order to enable storage permissions. could be a security feature.. no idea.
either search for "permissions" inside settings, or reach it by going to Apps > Advanced.
I'm planning to get the Chinese version (only one for now that has 4gb RAM and higher storage) and my question is does the phone come with English out of the box? Thanks
check with the shop ure getting it from, there are definitely multilanguage china roms

Dear All,
New member here with mate 8 AL10 32GB Chinese version (bought while traveling in China) on EMUI5. Have had problem installing 3rd party dialer apps, like exDialer and so on from google play store. The installation pops "authentication is required, you need to log into google account" message and stop. Tried clearing google play store data, google service data, removing google account from the phone, and all method recommended on the internet. No go. Other apps not involving accessing the contacts in the phone all install with no issues. Has anyone also stumbled on this, and what the solution would likely be? Thanks a lot!
Besides, the contacts in the Huawei phone is super simplified. I'd have liked mate 8 better if the contacts could include more info of a person, such as home address, email address and so on, as is Sony Z3 capable of with its contacts, that I came from.

Hi there ! This is a known bug in B562, everybody has this problem, me included. I don't think it has anything to do with apps accessing contacts, but with apps not previously purchased or associated with your account. There is no known solution so far. You can try the following workarounds:
- install the previous beta version B523 , the Google Play Store works fine , but this version lacks some interface features ( improved notifications , for example ) and maybe some other bugs.
- search for whatever apps you need in APKMirror , download and install manually. Speaking for myself, this is the safest bet because APK Mirror is trustworthy
- you could also try APKPure, which has a kind of a store app for convenience. It's easier to download and install apps, but I can't tell if the apps are malware free, so use it at your own risk ...
Btw, you can use the Sony contacts app if you want, just try downloading and installing it from APKMirror . Not sure if this is the correct one : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-mobile-communications/contacts-sony-mobile-communications .

That was a great piece of advice. Tried to manually install the Sony Contacts app. Despite a failed installation accompanied with an error message saying a required shared folder is non-existence in the mate 8, I was somehow able to import the contacts afterwards via Bluetooth connection from the Sony phone with all information retained, including the embedded head shot images. The Contacts app now operates the the Sony way too, with the ability of adding a self-defined field.
By the way, my mate 8 is on EMUI-4. The starting post said it was on EMUI-5, and that was a mistake on my part. My apologies.
for those who still have problems downloading apps from google play store, install this http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-account-manager/google-account-manager-7-0-release/

You're welcome, but the failed installation of the Sony Contacts app had nothing to do with your contacts importing, at least taking into account that the installation failed. All the contacts information that you mentioned is in fact standard Android functionality ( and available in Huawei Contacts app, btw ), so most likely the Bluetooth import app has just done its job ... Anyway, I have never had the Play Store problem while on EMUI 4 , only on the lastest EMUI 5.0.

Hi! I've installed this version, cleared data/cache, even removed and re-added my Google acount, but I still get the authentication required error. Could you test it some more, please ? Or maybe there's something else you did ? Thanks!
Found this posted on ASUS's website today in the downloads section.
Appears to be the Chinese version of the firmware. Judging by the patch notes looks like they will have separate versions for China, Japan & Worldwide.
*Edit*
They now have the World Wide firmware posted as well as the Kernel source code for both Chinese and World Wide variants.
https://www.asus.com/ca-en/Phone/ROG-Phone/HelpDesk_Download/
If the downloads don't appear for you when you select Android from the dropdown menu, there seems to be something wrong with ASUS's website and Chrome. Working fine on Firefox and Edge.

I just recieved my chinese unit yesterday and i have updated immediately to the mentioned update version. I am saddened by the fact that so far it's not possible to install the google store and the Google apps that require play services installed, i have spent the majority of the day trying different Google installers but to no avail. Still i managed to get the majority of my apps installed.
Hopefully this issue will be resolved soon. By the way you can download the phone English Manual from Asus Website the chinese version of course which will give more details to anyone interested. If anyone has any questions please don't hesitate to ask.
One final note you can't flash other region rom and there aren't tools yet to do so.

So i just installed the app you mentioned, basically it's a launcher it lets you access the play store within it using your Google account but it doesn't actually install the Google play store or any of its required sister apps it only lets you install/update from the Google Play Store like your purchased apps for example, still if you install Google Maps from it for example it won't work because you need the Google Account Manager to login and retrieve your saved info, same thing for all other Google apps that require Google play services. Actually this launcher works like "Yalp Store" if you heard of it but Yalp is better i think.
Did u tried to install google store apk file from it?

Yep that's what i did, and as i explained the google play store isn't a stand a lone app it's within the launcher app. You will not find it in your drawer app so technically it's not installed. If you remove the launcher you will not be able to access the play store anymore, so the launcher is acting like a proxy to the play store.
Edit:
So to further explain, if you ever used an Android emulator on windows this launcher app does the same thing. The launcher app installs all apps within it and you access them from it. The only problem with using this app is how secure is your data and what about your google account.

what do you mean by another launcher?. I think you misunderstood me, the launcher app i mean is(gplayspace app) all apps installed are within it, so if you uninstall it all other apps are uninstalled.
If you want to just use chrome, Maps you can install them from Asus Store but old versions not up to date. Regarding Youtube you can install "Youtube Vanced" which is better than the Youtube app itself.
If you just want to use (playspace app), make sure to use a disposable Google account in case something wrong goes down. Good Luck

Bro i just answered you. All apps installed from gplayspace app are within it you will only find them there. So you will not see them in your Home launcher as individual apps.
Its clear now

Hi dears,
I don't how many... but as soon launched, I placed my order for the 128GB version.
It is: http://www.royole.com/flexpai
Now... as soon payed, I didn't get any update and I raised up the case to PayPal as well.
Despite my path, I hope for you a better feedback, what's your opinion about?
Cheers.,
Love it!! Waiting for foldable tablet since years
Just curious to read your review
Please let me know
The only bad stuff: it isn't completely flat when opened

Mine was OK, the SIM card holder tip broke off but can still insert a SIM card. I have tried many different things. I used the Chinese app to download something called "Go" when I open the app, I see Royole and references to Play store. I still cannot get it to work. I tried to create a Royole account (no luck still).
I use my Huawei phone to convert the Chinese to English (camera/hivision). They have FAQs in the app, and it implies I needed to disable two factor authentication but it doesn't work still.
I hooked up the FlexPai to ADB/Logcat to see the debug messages and I see security exceptions. So I fear we may need to root (and this is outside of my expertise).
I use the web versions of google apps as a temp workaround (outlook for email). Some apps work some apps don't.

Hi looks promising.
In your list of 3 apks two of them are actually the same "app" just different versions
com.google.android.gms is the same as Google Play Services.
You need this one
com.google.android.gsf_9-4832352-28_minAPI28(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk
plus this version of Google maps
com.google.android.apps.maps_10.16.1-1016101040_minAPI21(arm64-v8a,armeabi-v7a,x86,x86_64)(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk
AND IT WORKS!!! great work.
I can't log in but maps works otherwise.
maybe we need to latest google account manager - looking into it.
thanks
I found an account manager for Android Pie but no luck.
I look at logs in ADB - and it seems there are permissions that are not granted
nable to get provider com.google.android.gsf.settings.GoogleSettingsProvider: java.lang.SecurityException: You need MANAGE_USERS permission to: get the profile parent
I tried to grant using ADB shell but cannot.
So in an area I don't have expertise on.
I see we can unlock our bootloader so potential for other ROMs and root to address these issues

then issue these two command from adb:
adb shell pm grant com.google.android.gms android.permission.INTERACT_ACROSS_USERS
adb shell pm grant com.google.android.gms android.permission.READ_LOGS
helps a lot.
Apps like flipboard, sirius etc now work (when they didn't before).
Apps not working for me still: pushover, textnow and the google apps (where I need to login).

With many attempts, no. I even tried to root and this was unsuccessful. What did work so I could get some apps onboard was downloading the apk for Amazon app store. Finally have YouTube and other apps for viewing video content and some cool games.

Yes, I could load my Gmail and YouTube by signing in. I had intentions as well to use it as a daily device however I'm experiencing connectivity challenges with wifi and my data. Royole is supposed to be sending out an update soon to address some of the challenges we in North America are experiencing.

Yes it is unlikely one can use this as their main phone, but it's close.
Google apps (or any other app) that needs to login (locally on device) will not work.
For the Youtube (Version from the Amazon store), the login is cloud based (so it works).
One can use Chrome to login to Google photos, GMail, Drive, etc (as the login is Cloud based).
For an alternative to Google Maps, try MapQuest.
Interestingly the Microsoft Apps work really well (Launcher, Cortana, OneNote & other office apps).
For Apps like Flipboard use an email account (not Google account).
See my above post on the Google Services APK to get other apps working.
Here is why I cannot use as my Main Daily Driver. I depend on apps like Pushover (doesn't work at all), Paid Google Play Store apps (PocketCasts), Some Banking Apps (it detects the Flexpai as "non compliant'), Google Assistant (I really depend on that as a developer), Some Widgets (Currency), Android Wear (Watch while I haven't tested It depends on Play Services), Focals (Smart Glasses), Duo, TextNow, Feedly.
It is a good preview to what a Huawei Phone without Google Play Store/Services will be like : )
I use it as a second device (Foldable Tablet) and I find it quite usable.

Oh sounds good. Where did you get the news from? If they remove the Google playstore or Google services limitations, it would be really helpful.

I just got update 1.0.27 a couple of days ago (It was huge just over 1.7 GB). I am in Toronto (Rogers). I don't have any connectivity issues though for Wifi I find it weak on 5 Ghz, but LTE is not bad.
Can you confirm you are able to login to GMAIL using the android app (or did you mean via a browser)?
thanks

I received this news from the seller in China.
Google access
Hello guys,
Good news to see all thé flexpai owners !
I will try to manage the Google authentification soon. My flexpai is coming back in 2 days after a problem of broken screen.. The bubbles near the hinge were huge so i managed to glue and lay the screen protector.. And it brokes.. (galaxy fold syndrom don't try to remove the protection layer).
The New firmware should help to access google
Hi Guys,
Any news about the Google Services in Flexpai?
I've followed most of the recent videos for sideloading GMS into Mate 30 Pro.
What I've found is that after installing #7 in the guides, before the final #8, all notifications stop. No android notifications come up for anything, not even HMS based apps like Huawei's "EMAIL" app. Any hints into how to fix notifications and get them to come back?
Thank you!
Jonas

I found this tutorial : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82436653&postcount=65
And everything is working so far, the only "bad" thing is that you can't use the play store, only Aurora store

Any downsides to using Aurora? Same Play Store selection?

In my experience there are any, the apps that Aurora Store shows are the same of the Play Store, from what I know is very secure to use it.

Yes, but remember that all the apps that you download from the Aurora Store if you do not have the Google Services installed right most of them will not work well for you.

Yes of course, and the tutorial linked above says it. You have to have the GMS correctly installed without the annoying notifications to proceed.
Hmm
Funny you guys should say that. I had GMS installed correctly no popups, but notifications still showing up sporadically, if at all. I noticed I have no GMS ID but GMS is still frozen. Should that be the case? If I open play store while GMS is frozen, it gives that retry error. I assume something broke along the way...

Sooo, I decided to start over. Wiped data and cache for each Google App, then uninstalled them. Then, reset phone.
Following the Spanish instruction video listed here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=82436653&postcount=65
Get to the part where we restore the app (Blue G) and the app is saying it doesn't have internet. That's a first. Tried different restores of the G app, all saying it doesn't have internet - tried 2 different wifi which are working perfectly. Is the service that this G app connects to down? Could anyone else try? Here's a screenshot.

Yep so bad news, and would really appreciate some insight. I've gone through the reset process and reattempts almost 10 times, but as of yesterday regardless of resets, I can no longer run the Chinese app with the G as it no longer prompts for administrative access, it just goes straight to "can't detect connection". I'm really at a loss.

If anyone has any ideas on how to get the app to "access the internet" again (as the message says in Chinese), I'd be willing to donate to their troubleshooting efforts. I don't want to send this back to get another phone just to fix this issue. It was working until just a day or so ago.

After using your walkthrough on YouTube I can use Google play store, however, I no longer get notifications for anything at all. Only thing I get is a few Gmail email notifications then after that nothing. It's like it fails push notifications after the first few Gmail ones it pushes.
Needless to say, an OS that doesn't push notifications on a phone is not usable. Any ideas?

I see. Well, when the notification was occurring for me, I just dragged the message to the left in the notification pane and said disable notifications. Is that not possible? Can I just disable the notification and still be able to use Google play? Like, stop the process at step 7 or 8, disable notifications on just play store issues and then let it be?

Probably possible. However, I think that was cause battery drain.

Any one knows why lz-play is not working at P40 Lite 5G?
I used to have my Google working on my Huawei perfectly, until I accidentally pressed the wrong button and all was uninstalled.
Now I had tried your method a few times. But every time I got stucked at the same part, where we were to add the Google accounts.
When I try to add the existing Google account, it always show Google connection error. Cannot connect to Google server. I tried restarting and force stopping or anything, I still cannot go pass this step. Cannot add Google account.
Can somebody tell me or teach me? If anyone had this problem and had solved it.
Tolong tolong
Sorry if it was explained elsewhere, but I really couldn't find it:
I managed to install GMS. Is there anything I should avoid (other than deleting google account or reseting the phone) to keep it running?
For example:
- Can I safely update any apps or services or will updating a Google Store or something mess everything up?
- Are there any apps I should avoid, eg. some security, system management or antivirus apps?
Yes many apk notifications doesent work. Stopping google framework and reboot phone will enable notifications back but u cant use play store. So use aurora.
Hi firlando, Could you please share how to install GMS for huawei nova 7 se
Yes
