I also tried to install Samsung Keyboard but it did not work. I think mate 8 does not have the framework for Samsung Keyboard to work.

That is sad news for me, i can't find a good replacement for it

I'd love to get Samsung pay working too but there's not a lot of info to go by. Plus I'm in USA and looks like we don't have a ROM.
@sefmars
This is free download site?
Or paid?
Is it possible to switch to English language?
Chinese is so hard to translate and to navigate through menus...
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards

If you have an U.S. bought watch it should work, you can call samsung support to help you
As I understood there was a method to spoof it with root, that would force an install, but is no longer working, and do not want to root my s8, was thinking of doing it on another phone bkp and reatore watch
Anyway it has been releses in thw UK, so ut should not take long to reach the rest of the world...

My phone is rooted and AFAIK that's where the problem lies. I've tried su hide with magisk but still can't get it working.

I haven't. But I've only had the watch a couple of weeks, saw the dev scene was pretty much bill, and only installed apps through gear app & play store.
So can I just transfer the old apks with filesmaster and install them? I haven't installed from unknown sources yet.
Samsung pay isn't a system app? I can just uninstall then install the older apk?

You can try APK Extractor from the Play Store. It will extract even system apps but not sure if you'll be able to install it.

Samsung One font

Hi,
I was hoping for Samsung to include their One font in Pie/One UI.
That didn't happen.
I already tried all of apks found on web and xda, none working.
Anybody here able to compile it as apk (no flashable or root required)?
Thanks
Interested in this as well!
I was wondering if you already found a solution without rooting? I don't really want to root this phone as I am using it for business. Thanks!
There is no way to load it on Pie, just won't work. Use Samsung Sans from the Samsung store, it's almost identical
You can download it via Korean Galaxy Store.
You just need to
1. remove your sim (airplane mode don't work)
2. use a VPN to South Korea
3. clear data of Galaxy Store
4. go to galaxy store (normally you are now on korean store)
5. search Samsung One and install it.
you can also download good lock or other korean stuff with this method

Awesome! It works! Font name will be indicated on the settings with Korean characters but when you download it in the Galaxy Store (using Korean VPN), it is indicated that it's SamsungOne. It's nice to have other font installed as we don't have much choices with the new update. :laugh:
Thank you very much for sharing this, @sangbin :good:
Have a good one!

LZPlay IS NOT working anymore - NO MORE GMS

Hello,
As you guys maybe already aware of that, LZPlay website and the app as been shuting down. For people who already have downloaded the app, don't try it now, it won't work.
Source : https://www.androidcentral.com/hidden-apis-huawei-mate-30-allow-backdoor-install-google-apps
I hope Huawei will find a way soon for us (and me) to install and enjoy GMS.

I just hope they find a way, otherwise this phone will surely be doomed.
The only solution, i think will be to unlock the bootloader. Or maybe @duraaraa and his team will find a solution...

It's fake.
Might it be possible to use the techniques inside of LZplay app to get root access (install magisk) to P30pro?

The site is, but the Youtube video isn't.
Really doubt the apk in the video description would work. I don't think that tool is latest and can handle Mate 30 series
and the video gone private so i dunno

When restoring using HiSuite, it responds with "Failed to restore".
I'm on build 10.0.0.134 of EMUI - could this be the problem? Is that the build that others have had success with?

1. Check your drivers and make sure they're all installed properly
2. Make sure you use the provided cable
3. Need to have a Sim card inside and also logged into huawei account
4. USB debugging needs to be turned on and also the hisuite USB access.
Had the same issue too and doing all the above plus a a reboot or two and it worked fine after that. Firmware versions doesn't effect it.
Hi, plan on this phone as my daily driver so I will probably runs anything on it, including sensitive banking and security apps, I have saw lots not recommending using this method as it opened up some loopholes (i.e. Google SafetyNet failed), any source or research being done that pointed out any insecurity of using such method? (i.e. Prone to information leaking, etc.)
Thank you in advance. Great community!
