What is this GMS Beta Activity beta test? - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

I recently installed the Friendly User Test program on my Honor 8 (FRD-L09C432) and I saw an available beta test called GMS Beta Activity. The changelog is in Chinese so I will appreciate it if someone can translate the changelog to English.
What is it?

Use Google translate. That's literally the reason there are translators.

I don't trust Google Translate. It's pretty inaccurate if it comes to Far Eastern languages.

This app can help you - Manslater! Enter what she said either via text input or speech recognition and let it translate what she really meant and display and read it to you.
Finally understand the women!
Supports all languages with help of Google Translate. So thank Google for bad translations

Thanks for you feedback
Greets, Goddchen
This app must be sent from heaven! Thank you!
glad you like it did you see? you can also submit new translations
Great app, hilarious! I'm not liking the speech synthesis though. Is it possible later on to make it optional?
you can disable auto-playback anytime via settings. then you will only hear it when you click the play button.
Awesome thanks!
is this similar to the youtube video from a couple of months back?
Awesome.. thanks

Exactly, this youtube inspired us

[jelly bean ] Text to speech has only four languages

Italy. Germany. Spanish and French
But why?
If u want Google now to say something, change the system language into English ( I use Japanese). But I need both Japanese and Chinese offline language pack for daily use,
so
Where can we get 'em?
rock with nexus s with xda app
Sorry I didn't realize I should post in that thread, please lock this post.
thank you
rock with nexus s with xda app
Luckily I am Italian and I can speach English Spanish and germany .. but I think that Google will release other languages in few days
I'm disappointed by Jelly Bean. The new Google Voice Search doesn't work in French. Sure it perfectly recognizes and transcribes my queries, but instead of answering questions it just runs a Google web search.
This is even more disappointing since the old Google Voice search no longer exists; under ICS I could at least use the basic functions in french "Call xxx (even if they're not on my contact list)", "Send text", "Set alarm", etc.
Simply cause we are cool and you not ...
Just jocking
For sure google will release language pack asap
and it's still better than only english speakin siri...
Just be patient, JB ran out only few hours ago

Wrong, Siri worked in like a dozen of languages right when the iphone4s came out
so for the offline voice-typing you need a language pack? is google going to be releasing these as an update or something?

10 Terabytes synchronized and free!!! And now in English (Updated: 200214)

If you own an Android device, you can get 10 Terabytes completly free and synchronized.
I doubt there is something similar out there.
Tencent (do you know QQ?) is the company behind this 'aberration' and there are no tricks nor referrals. You simply need to register an account and install the application in a mobile device.
I've written a 'small' review where I explain how to deal with the sign up process as it's only available in Chinese language!!!
The post it's written in Spanish but you can easily translate to English,
I provide some translations for the desktop application in Spanish too, but other people has their own translation to English, so playing with the software will be more understandable.
If you are confident with this Chinese company, take a look to this offer and take advantage of this huge amount of free disk space!!!
Edit: These are the steps to get 10 TB and have both, desktop and mobile applications in either, English/Spanish language
Sign for a QQ account here: http://www.weiyun.com/act/10t.html?WYTAG=weiyun.portal.index. Use some online translator coz it's in Chinesse.
Once you are done, go to your cloud drive here http://www.weiyun.com/disk/index.html and check the disk space. It is normal that you only have a few GB but shortly you will receive 1 TB free space (If not, you probably need to install the desktop application)
Install the desktop application. There is only Chinesse language available but in my blog http://imahgin.blogspot.com.es/2013/10/10-terabytes-gratis-en-la-nube-y.html I explain how to deal with the installation process.
Download and install translation files.

Spanish: http://share.weiyun.com/e915670572241fe9e88601ef51911f17
To get 10 TB you need to install the mobile application and sign in.

If you read carefully my blog (I know it's in Spanish and automatic transllation don't do the work fine) you'll see that you can upload up to 300 MB from your web browser. For larger files (up to 2 GB) you need to install a plugin.
Close your web browser
Download and install this plugin
Open the web browser and try to upload the file again
I've tried it out with Chromium and it works like a charm (see attached picture)
An alternative method is this (I didn't tried it out but I guess it will work):
Copy the file to your local synchronized folder.
Let the sync software do the job and wait till the file is uploaded to the cloud.
From your desktop application go to advanced config (in the second tab) and uncheck the file already uploaded (this will prevent the file to be synchronized)
Delete the file from your local drive. You will keep the file in the cloud
10 TB?
Seems quite unbelievable, but it works for now, i received the free storage...
I'm just wondering how long they'll leave that amount of space available, i don't think there's any kind of warranty on it.
Thanks for reporting ! :good:
just got 10T lol
hope in the future they add english language lol
or someone could translate the apk ehehe

Is a claim to draw customers. I guess they assume nobody will fill such huge amount of space
About warranties, I did not read the agreement when I signed up. Maybe some Chinese could translate for us the document
I'm using this cloud storage disk to replicate and synchronize my data so, if someday the service ends up, I'll keep my data in my local drive.
Anyway, keep in mind that Tencent is a big company with a big market. QQ is spreading all over the world so I hope they will keep their promise.
Interesting article written more than one year ago!!! http://thenextweb.com/asia/2012/09/17/chinas-tencent-building-mobile-lifestyle-weixin-weibo-now-weiyun/
By that time they 'only' offer 100 GB
So it's not something new.

400 KB/s is not enough for you?
Look at the attached picture. My upload rate is comprised between 300 and 450 KB/s. I uploaded 1.5 GB in less than 1.5h. And I'm not in China
Download rate for me is up to 5 MB/s !!!!

In my blog I explain how to partially translate to Spanish language but other guys did the same for English.
The problem is that not all the messages are in XML files so, there are some texts that can't be translated unless you hack the exe file
Now I'm trying to decompile and translate the apk for Android. I hope I could release an English version of the mobile application soon.
There are more than 900 phrases so it'll take me a while.
hi, even im trying to translate it in english but no luck.. non edited compiled version also giving errors while compiling looking forward to solve and give d best...
thank you

Hey bro! thank you very much for sharing. Yeah, the app is all in chinese so that's kind of useless for non-chinese speaking people. Like you, I speak spanish as my native language so the screenshots you posted helped me a lot :good:.
Hopefully we'll have a native android translation soon. Meanwhile I uninstalled the app from my phone, so I'll basically just use it as a backup cloud.
BTW: Can I share your post in HTC Desire C Forum? I'll give you credit, no problem.

Hola atomega!!!
No problem for sharing this post or the post in my blog. In fact, if you read the comments at the end of the post you'll realize that now we have the apk in Spanish!!! -All credits goes to Jean Carlos Concepcion-
Now I'm doing the same for english but I don't have too much free time so I'll need some more days.
I'll update OP when both apk are translated
Ok cool! :thumbup: I'll do it when I get home. Hey, do you know if Jean is a XDA member? I feel like I should go and thank him for the translation :beer:
I'll see if I can do the english translation and post it here so we have a unified thread.

mahg: apktool mate, but still no luck. as I'm new to compiling/recompiling it taking time to learn. I'm very much interest in these type of stuff. Can u provide me the info/links for fast learning of tools.. Thankyou
Great find! Signing up now. But 10TB? WOW! Dropbox or GDrive is nothing compared to this one!
---
I think they have ran out of space. I only got 7gb after signing up and installing the app. Too bad...

Did you see Alexa Mate 9 new beta?

I found on the reddit , seems appeared some new beta with Alexa for American device, of V181.
I have Middle East Mate 9, but now I shall rebrand and try this because I have credits left. I never try Alexa before but before now it's never voice wakeup anything useful. This time maybe it's more useful.
They post like this and screenshots:
Anyway I will announce everyone about how is it! Very excited!
Source is here: links removed
actually some of us do care
New firmware is always interesting from the POV of improvements and new features, though I fail to see the appeal of Alexa built in to the firmware... Google Assistant has been rolled out (and based on above, it sounds like it works better), and Alexa could be downloaded as a separate app anyway.
Looking forward to Alexa on the mate 9. I like Alexas voice so much better than siri or Google assistant/home.
"Okay Emy, open Alexa"
Oh dear Lord.

Why not simply use Google Assistant instead then? It's in English and a lot smarter than Mi AI
