Hi all, i'd like to introduce my free app Market Unlocker to you.
It's similar to MarketEnabler which let you access paid apps in Android Market, but add funny functions as
1. Support Android Market 3.4
2. Support download & buy paid app in Amazon Appstore outside USA.
As you might have known, android market and amazone appstore will stop you from downloading and tell you that it's not supported in your region. Why? Because the server's checking your ip address countries as well as your provider. For amazon users registered with us credit card and billing address, it's frustrated when you're not in usa.
Market Unlocker will force visiting Market and Appstore via a proxy, that makes traffic looks like from USA. Unlimited access any more.
Find out more details in Android Market by search "Market Unlocker". I also attached an apk, but check out from android market is still recommended.
Believe it will help you.
Looks promising. It is a [ROOT required + Acquire IMEI] app.
But I cannot find a working US proxy yet to test its function (download apps from Amazon). What a pity.
getting a working USA proxy is hard
Pick up where to get working proxy in Q&A of Android market app descriptions. Google also...

Works great on my SGS2.
However, I tried it on the alpha ICS roms. (from samsung). It could not get su access and force closed. Might be about my setup though.
Does not work on CM9 alphas too.
Is it an ICS problem?
Hmm tried on nook color with cm9 preview and the market change works, yet the proxy setting says "invalid ip address or port number"
Thanks, i will try

Hi, thanks for your work.
Currently I try to download the GMail App, because the App isn't in the german Market.
I was able to fake the provider to Verizon USA and configured a proxy I found in the web. But the GMail App isn't available yet.
What went wrong?
The proxy??
could not make it work.
I bought the Pro version, got a proxy configured automatically and managed managed to buy and install fifa12 from the US market using these steps:
1. Turn on flight mode
2. Enable Market Unlocker and auto unlock
3. Got to system Setting => Applications => Manage applications => All => Market, and click “Clear data”
4. Reboot phone
5. Turn on Wifi/3G
6. Wait google service sync-up completed or refresh in Gmail.
7. Open Market Unlocker, enable proxy
8. Open Google Play. Buy your apps.
Turn off flight mode.

My question is this, if the device is rebooted with proxy off or flight mode is enabled and disabled, do we still need to do the above steps to be able to buy apps from the US market?
works good on my sgs
is it just me or does this app no longer work ?
for example enable it then use with or without proxy and i still can't download or use google wallet, whereas before i could.
Something has changed...

But Wouldnt doing the steps above erase the apps that I already have in my account?
For the record the doesnt do a thing in my phone...
It this working for anyone?
I noticed many people had had trouble recently from accessing the US Play Store from other countries, after apps such as Market Access and Market Enabler stopped working. I also found that people had trouble using VPNs.
I finally managed to find Pandora, a US-only app in the Play Store, meaning that it worked.
Essentially, I think Google can detect whether you've paid for apps already from a non-US source already on your current Google account. So basically I created a new Google account, moved my IP to a US server using Tunnelbear (available in Google Play), and emulated my SIM to T Mobile US using Market Access (just to be safe). I then went through the normal process of clearing data and force stopping Google Play Services and Google Play Store. Then I opened Play Store and it automatically went to my primary Google account.
All I had to do thereafter was switch to my newly created account and I searched Pandora and found it. I also searched Hulu Plus and found it.
I can also confirm that you can get Google Wallet from the Play Store via this newly created Google account. I emulated my SIM to Sprint US, VPN to the US of course, and edited my build.prop to emulate a Galaxy Nexus. I searched Wallet on the Play Store after clearing data and force stopping and downloaded the latest version. I lost all sound from my phone after emulating a Galaxy Nexus (I am on the i9300), but I found that sound was fine after restoring my build.prop and installing Google Wallet. It now works fine with my original build.prop but just make sure you install it when you're still emulating a Galaxy Nexus.
Hope this helps at least some people.

Thanks !
I'm still trying to find a method for accessing the us store from my old account though....
Would be great if Google would adopt the Apple - Itunes system and allow us to change through any country we desire...

Yeah I know that would be ideal.
Also I can't find any way to access it through my primary Google account. But I'm not too worried about that because it only takes a matter of seconds to switch accounts. I just have to make sure I always use my original account for UK apps and new one for US apps.
Perhaps you could try wiping all payment information from your current Google account? But I don't know if that will work because Google will probably still have a backlog.

See my later comments below.
Just a topic to advise any possible UK buyers who are considering to have this phone. I've managed to install Google services with some guide in this forum . Most of apps working, of course I'm prepared for some Google framework function not work, i.e. Google assistance (voice control ), Google pay with contactless etc. But some key apps not working can rely put me off:
*Barclays UK mobile Banking app: not supported on Play Market, tried to manual install the app with APK files , tried current and various previous versions, none of them worked. So if you rely on mobile banking a lot with Barclays bank, please be alerted. I can't use web version on the phone as the mobile app needs to be supported to generate log in code.
Less urgent case that I can use browser to bear the inconvenience: IHG booking app. Tried various previous version , none worked.
HSBC Mobile Banking for UK: all working fine
HSBC Mobile Banking for Hong Kong: works but does not support Fingerprints Log In.
Appreciate any help if you have any solutions for above apps?
Strange... there has not been any reply on this topic yet ?...
> I can't use web version on the phone as the mobile app needs to be supported to generate log in code.
I'm curious about this. Do you have any more information? Which browser are you using? Did you check the box for 'Desktop site' [1]? I find that works for most things where they check the UA string.
[1] That's what it is for Chrome, but I imagine other browsers have something similar.
Are you sure this is true? I am almost certain that I'm upgrading to this phone.
I was told that all Google apps, play store and generally everything Google related is working on this device from EE. I'm also with Barclays and will need to access that app. If this isn't the case then I will have to consider a different phone.
Still no luck. When searching Barclays app in Playstore , no luck. You can go to web version Google store and try to find this app then it will show app not compatible with this device. I guess Barclays app uses Google safetynet framework which is currently baned on this device.
Hi
I have the Barclays banking app working on my Mate 30 Pro 5G along with several other without any issues. Installed the Playstore as per method and downloaded app as normal. Only thing not working is Google Pay.
Dude , the app doesn't even turn up on playstore what are you talking about ?

Okay thanks for this ,is this Clone process part of Huawei thingy or independent app?
I've tried Huawei Clone , No chance.

Did you just download Barclays apps from your play store? That'll be really shocking to me as Barclays app doesn't even show up in my play store.

I know , I wish there was a way here to dislike people's false information. I don't know what pleasure they take by doing this

Go to this link and install the shared directory apk. Then go to install Barclays app on a 3rd party resource platform such as apkmirror or somewhere similar
It's working on my phone now
Nationwide Banking App UK
Does anyone know if the Nationwide Banking App works via transfer via phone clone? If someone could try this would be great as this is a deal breaker if i get the phone

Tested it can be downloaded directly from my Playstore , if you know how to install Google services on mate30pro then it'll be no problem for you to use that App
I know for free apps you can just get the apk off Apkmirror or something but what about paid apps? Is it possible to buy an app off Google Play using a web browser and install it without the actual Google Play App?
I know there is a convoluted way to install Google Play through a combination of restore and lzplay apps but apparently that involves handing over administrative control to some unknown third party so I'm not sure if I should try that yet.
Phone is Mate 30 Pro 5g.
I don't think so

I got my 30 pro yesterday and did the installation. After you have installed the Gapps, you can just delete the App so it can't harm anybody. Everything except Google Pay works fine.

I did it according to the guide on Huaweiblog (a german website) i´ts there and i guess you can easily understand it, as it´s step by step
https://www.huaweiblog.de/news/huawei-mate-30-pro-google-dienste-installieren/
there is also a video guide on the site
I found this link on YouTube where a user explains how to certify the Mate 30 Pro by Google in the Play Store app. I tried this method 1 month ago and although at the beginning the phrase "uncertified device" disappeared from the Play Store, days later the Play Store app showed me that "my device is not certified", so I think it does not work .
Does anyone used this method that explains this YouTube user?

https://www.gizchina.com/2020/02/26/how-to-install-google-apps-on-huawei-phones-a-new-method/
This works!
After testing every method i found here or on youtube im very skeptical. Its very exhausting to try these methods, praying to get only Google Services and all you get are that SPAM-like Pop ups from Google about not having an cerified device.
I bought my Mate 30 pro on the 2nd of March.
Build 10.0.0.193 and LIO L29. Kernel is 4.14.116.
Maybe its because im german
Well, does anyone tested this method?

i tried and was able to install with " Not Certified" error, the trick is Install GMS through any method with DATA and Wifi turned off
install GMAIL using apk file rather than play store, after installing apk reboot and turn data on, log in gmail account using Gmail app and then open play store..... you will be able to install everything you want
You can download Gmail apk from here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/gmail/
What method to install GMS you use?

How do you install GMS without data? What method you use? I can't install GMS with data off, whatever I do, it asks for data.
If you save files in usb type c flashdrive or download to pc and set usb transfer files. No need data, wireless.
This link https://www.google.com/android/uncertified/ where they do the certification is very misleading. When you register in theory it should be fine, but what happens is that Google reviews those registrations and decides which ones to allow. So it doesn't matter if you added your play store ID and clicked Register. I got this information from Google support, because I was asking them quite some times to explain why this service for certification does not work and what is its purpose. They told me that they review those requests in order to allow the certification. They could at least give some feedback on their system showing the registrations status - pending, rejected, successful.
I guess they don't care how many paying customers they will lose when they reject the phones and remove the possibility of even adding them manually.
