It is working OK with SE X10. However, neither check-in nor buzz is available in China. We have to wait for the unlocked version
Is this brut mode?
i've got blank (white) screens on checkins etc.
It's very annoying that you have to create your cache all over again every update.
Thx. for posting the apks, Google has something against letting update the Xperia Arc with them via the Market.

They also have something against HTC Desire and Cosmote Romania. I have Google Maps 5.1 installed from a third party source and it works just fine! When I go to the Market on the PC, it says This item is not available for your carrier. On the phone, it isn't displayed at all and I don't want to use Market Access. Eventually, I have installed GM 5.3 from enuazeal. Thanks.

In Estonia we have the same problem - some applications/updates are not available via market.
If you still want to use the market:
Root and use market enabler
or
Get a SIM from a country that is "good enough" in Google's eyes
My Arc is from Germany, free of any lock or branding, why it would refuse to show it I have no idea.
But the install from apk went on just fine.

Thank you mate
However it doesn't work here in Syria, I believe Google checks the IP as well
Well my excitement for this app has improved!! I'm originally from Seattle, but I'm over here in Abu Dhabi visiting my GF for about 3 weeks, and for once my GPS can finally locate me! Granted, I have to keep the phone in Airplane Mode and the GPS icon keeps doing it's little flashing (aka no lock), but at least it's showing me on the correct intersection. I have yet to see what happens if I go outside onto a completely different block, but it's progress. Now only if there was a way to make the maps actually preload onto the phone and I could use GPS outside of the houses' WiFi so I can drive around town w/o getting lost.
She has a Captivate that I've rooted and she has installed a Du (one of their cellphone providers over here) SIM card into her phone so she can make calls, but she doesn't have a data plan. I'm going to update her phone to this version of Maps and see if her GPS acts better and/or can at least locate her based on cell tower location.
is brut mode?
I'm still running 5.0. Besides the checkin's and dashboard option, is this update really worth installing?
Are you serious? Its free!!!!

Just because something is free doesn't make it good. I've found many android app updates not worth updating to because either something is broken, drastically changed, or more useless.

Thank you for the download
Hi,
how does the offline availability work? I plan to go on vecation next month and I would like to use maps navigation but I do not have any contract in the US for data connection. Can I plan my route on it and connecting with wifi and it will download all the data needed so that I can drive just fine?
The Xoom is released in Canada now. But the market is so bad compared to living in the USA.
For one, we don't see a 'Tablet App' section, so it simpossible to weed out tablet specific apps, this leaves me with so many FC's on apps. Real stupid by google..
Another ofcourse is we don't see apps such as Google books, Pandora etc.. this was fixable using rac's Market Enabler, but since the wifi xoom has no GSM it won't do anything..
So does anyone have any idea, perhaps modify the vending apk to seem it is located in USA
Thanks alot
Have you tried going to the marketplace from withing your browser? It is a bit more functional. It even shows which apps you have already installed without having to go into the my apps section.

no difference unfortunately
The Featured tablet apps shows only some tablet apps (in US), not all tablet apps, so even this isn't a solution for your problem. Give it some time, i'm convinced that developrs will update their apps to support Honeycomb.
About the apps that are made for US customers, it should be possible to access US Android Market on wifi only Xoom by using US VPN and disabling other location services in setting, but I haven't tried it.

Have you tried copying the build.prop from a US Xoom? Just an idea.
i would go with build.prop before enabler. my wifi xoom does the market without issue and I didn't touch carrier status at all.

And I do have the USA xoom imported it

I have a US imported xoom too. I connected to a VPN in US, cleared Market data from Setting/Applications and the market showed the Tablet Apps section. But... I tried buying apps and I got a message that it's not allowed (or something) by my carrier!!!
This is a stretch but perhaps its tied to your actual google account. An easy enough test would be for a US xoom owner to fudge a non-us address on their google account or a non US one fudge a US address. I believe this is how Amazon is filtering purchases in their new store.
You're right it must be tied to the google checkout account. Does anybody know if it's possible to buy using Gift Cards?
I've had customers purchase AR.Pro with a gift card, certainly.

Hi,
I think my situation can show a little light on the subject.
I live in TRNC (Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus). And when I go to my office near the border, the market instantly changes to Euro, enabling me to buy the apps (not all of them shows on the market); and when I go to my home away from the border, the market changes to TL and I cannot buy anymore (Turkey and Google has a little catfight about tax so purchases are disabled)
What I am thinking is maybe the device staples your location by wifi (approx) and then it uses the location (not the provider details) to detemine in which country you are?
I don't know if this might help anyone but, wanted to share; hoping someone solves thes pain in the a.s problem. I am longing for books, youtube, earth and tegra games...
People you do not need anything. No root, no prop files...
I just solved the problem yesterday...
---> Go to Google Maps
---> Settings Tab
---> Latitude
---> Settings Tab
---> Settings
---> Select "Set Your Location/Manually Select a location on the map"
---> "Point on map"
---> Go to anywhere in america tab and hold a point
---> Tap to select this point
Taddaaa, everthing is now open... Books, Earth paid apps everything... As long as you keep your latitude there ( only latitude app cannot be used, It will show you in us(mine is currently in nebraska) ) you can buy and use any app.
After that, just change it back to "Select your location..." (Be aware that when you select back to this option you may lose books and youtube)
Oddly my transformer lost the google play books and google play movie apps while traveling in Europe. My Galaxy Nexus was unaffected despite sharing the same wifi connections. I understand they aren't available in the market..but odd they seemed to vanish from the transformers GUI. I had to uninstall and reinstall them the first time I reentered a country they were available in.
Anyone with similar experiences internationally? Kind of annoying if you can't trust it to keep the video and books app if you take content with you...

I'll let you know if any of this happens to me since I'll be traveling to Europe soon.
Last time I was over there I had an update come through on my NexusOne and the language got switched so every time I searched it was in another language. It really only affected Google properties for mobile web but it was really annoying and it took a while to fix it.

That's normal. I have just the app section because the rest is not available in my country. When I go to the UK though all the services appear.
There was once a app called market enabler. IIRC it brings the full layout back. If you want to buy something though you've to use a proxy.

Yes, I understand the market changing to only have the available sections in that country is normal. That happened on my phone and tablet. The Play Books and Play Movies apps completely going away from the device, that only happened on the Transformer.
This gets worse and worse...
I'm in the US now, and after my last reboot, the Google Play Books app went away, and no matter what I do, it won't come back. I have the Books section in Google Play, but when I select it, it says I need the newest Books app. It takes me to the market page, but there are no buttons to install or uninstall. I tried side loading it, but it still doesn't show up in the menu, though it does make the Uninstall button show up for the market.
Any ideas short of doing a complete reset?
I also tried manually re-installing the last US blob file, but that didn't re-add Books.
I guess the difference between your tablet and your phone is that the phone has a SIM card that tells Android what country it actually belongs to. The tablet has no SIM and therefore must rely on WiFi geolocation for that purpose.
If Google Books is missing and you can't install it from the Market, it's probably disabled or frozen (same thing, different terms). Try opening the Settings app, select Apps, select the All tab, scroll to the bottom and see if Books is there. If so, select it and click the Enable button and you should be back in business. If it's not there, something really weird has happened...

As promised, I'm in Europe (Poland) and can begin to let you know what I'm seeing. I think the above quote MIGHT have something to do with it. I'm not sure of how your setup was @amaddux but, I'm completely on WiFi for now. I haven't seen a change and even the time was still GMT+5 (made for an interesting morning). Since this was all over WiFi everything is normal except for Play shows zl (local currency) for purchases.
Once I put a European SIM into my old phone (NexusOne GSM) and tether, it might change this. I'll keep you posted as I try different configurations and go to Germany.

Unfortunately, Books is not listed under All, either alphabetically or at the bottom, so I think I qualify under the "something weird has happened" clause so far.
The steps to get here as far as I remember are...
Movies & Books goes away after a week in Europe, while in Luxembourg, right after a visit to Belgium. Once leaving Luxembourg, in Germany, I'm able to uninstall both Book and Movies and re-install them, using the market. They both show up again. 5 days later, I'm in the US again, reboot, both apps vanish again. Movies I'm able to un-install and re-install and all is fine after a reboot. Books I'm unable to Uninstall. It shows up in the Market, but with no button. Side loading it make the Uinstall button appear in the market, but does not let it run on the tablet.
Update: I did find Books in the Play Market My Apps All tab. I Uninstalled it there, which then gave me the "Update" button. Once I updated it from there, it seems to be back. A quick reboot keeps it. So back to normal for now, just hoping this doesn't happen everytime I leave the country.
Ok, so I've been in Poland and Germany. Everything is working fine, books/movies/etc. It knows where I am since the cost of apps in Play change to local currency (zl) and search results need to translate. I've only been on WiFi networks though, not using a European SIM

Interesting. I was in Germany over a week with no issues also. It wasn't until either Brussels or Luxembourg that I had an issue with apps vanishing. I would bet on Luxembourg, since I only had access to "Apps" in the Market while there. Either way, everything is good for now.

I took at trip to the Dominican Republic and lost access to the TV Shows section (after I had already purchased and downloaded a bunch of TV shows no less!)
I tried EVERYTHING to get it fixed, but for some reason, every time I would uninstall and reinstall the app, it kept giving me the "DR" version (you can see what version is installed in the Settings menu of the particular App).
I ended up having to factory reset the device.

You do need to check the frequencies as you have done. The Mate 8 has allot of bands covered.
Android OS on Huawei's phones have about every language available. There is some apps on the phone that is in Chinese, but they can be removed, and are for the china market.
Google Apps will not be preloaded, but you will need to download from the Huawei App Store called HiApp. That HiApp app is in mixed Chinese and English, so not everything is translated. After that you have Google Apps, and can download from Google Play that will follow your OS language.
I have had the Honor 6, Honor 6 Plus, Honor 7 and now Mate S, all the Chinese version and they have all been working fine here in Denmark. I have had no problems with network, GPS or WiFi here or on vacation. .
..oh, the change log for OS updates are (mostly) in Chinese

Yes, you do.
It is quite simple: Open HiApp -> Search "Google" -> Click on the Google banner in the top of the search results -> All Google apps is listed, click the download button for each (downwards arrow).
Other than Google Play, you need the Contact sync and Calander sync apps from the list. The rest can be downloaded from Google Play Store afterwords.
I had no troubles with a P8max recently, most sellers out of China will pre-install Google Play for you. My Mate 8 arrives next Monday, can let you know of if it differs any from the P8Max in terms of language difficulties.
Hi,
I bought a Mate 8.
It come with google playstore installed.
I arrived to install all app I want from google playstore.
The only problem I foun, I can't import my contact list, but will be solve for sure.
Two of us have Google contacts sync working, although neither of us is entirely sure how (I was granting permissions/trusted status/open from other apps statuses etc as a batch, so not sure which of those actions allowed for contacts import sorry).
If your google contact can't not sync.
Do you install the google contact sync? you can find it from the "huawei app store".
Install the google contact sync apk, and remove your account, reboot, login your contact again.
It works fine in my mate8 with google contact.
I can use almost all of google service in mate 8 now. (no matter google play, gmail, hangout, contact or anyother)
But, the only problem is that I can't get the location during google map without GPS enable.
Google map can't use cell or wifi to detect where it is, but it work fine with GPS enable.
I have no idea that how to fix it...
After searching the solution from google, it seems I need to root and replace networklocation.apk....
Is there any other method? (I don't know how to root huawei's device...)
I've recieved my mate 8 a week ago, and have had the issues that most of you are talking about.
Assuming the issue is from the battery manager itself; click on the setting icon up left of the screen, you need to switch on (Keep mobile data on when sleeping).
Of course that is in congunction with the rest of the settings/permissions.
Good luck,
Just don't forget to update emui

I'm coming from a one plus one with a few badly writtern tasker profiles (quiet at work, and home nights with auto voice and autovera stuff), 3 mail clients including a touchdown exchange one. It was too much for the one plus but my new mate 8 is still flying.
Problems I have/had
The sync thing - was mashmellow permissions and a restart. (You do not need to wipe and restart.
The app draw - not a problem just a concept change the mate 8 doesn't have one your home screens are your app draw. So its a case of being tidy with folders. But swiping up on the home screen gives you an app search.
Dictionary - wish I could figure out how to copy the words I had stored in my dictionary.
Chinese App store - keeps telling me I have 18 apps that need updating - they don't the are just wanting to change to the chinese version.
Battery life - the one plus would last a day and 1/2 if I forgot to charge it the 1/2 I would start not usjng it, mate 8 will nearly last 2 days (it also gives me stats in ma about what is eating the battery)
Overall its a great phone

I've received my mate 8 one week ago... And unfortunately I had a rare problem with my notifications (whatsapp, viber, and other apps).
I did trust those apps from the system, and followed the instructions from the huawei guide, but the problem still.
So anybody have any idea how to solve this problem.
Thanks
Hi, i want to buy a Mate 8 but I'm not sure for the sync problem for google. what type of problem you have?
it is a great phone but unfortuantely I have the same problem with the google sync as well as not getting any notifications. Please help!
didnt someone mention that putting the phone into performance mode solved this?
Tried it hasn't worked for me
Location Services are not working unless you activate GPS - AL10 model;
Any solutions?
yeah, several other users already reported that energy-saving location services somehow dont seem to work...unless u switch to high-performance mode @gps
Hey guys, I am trying to login to Huawei services and I always get the message "due to service location restrictions the system is unable to provide services to you".
Does anyone knows how to bypass that?
