MiPad 2 - Installing Google Play Store

Hi,
I bought a new Xiaomi MiPad 2 64GB Android version but was bit disappointed when I didn't find Google Play Store in it. I tried different suggestion on the internet to install apks manually from various forums (not sure if those apk were legitimate, bit scary now when I think about it) and got play store somehow installed but none of the apps would install. It goes to the stage where you are shown the window with permission the app needs and it fails with a message.
I have restarted the tablet multiple times, tried installing many apps, uninstalled the google installer and reinstalled it but to no avail. Its very disappointing that its so difficult to get google play store on to an Androind tablet!
Has anybody got any suggestions, should I wipe off what Xiaomi provides and get a new ROM in (I haven't done custom ROM installations before)?

I Think You Have To Flash Gapps to Make Playstore Work Mate From Your Recovery ..
As Your Phone is New, You Have To Install A Custom Recovery Like TWRP to Flash Google Apps(GAPPS) ..
Check this link for That ..

ok, thank you

You have to change the Data file system to ext4 and then reflash the OS with TWRP. Helps to have an usbOTG cable and a thumb drive with the os.zip and Supersu.update.zip on it because as soon as you reformat the data file, say goodbye to everything on the device. So backup all your stuff to a pc or what have you first. After that your Google apps will work fine. You can just download Google Services framework5.1-1743759(22), Google Account Manager5.1-1743759, Google Play Services10.0.84(x86+x86_64), and Google Play Store7.3.07 from APK Mirror and go to settings, Autostart and select the three that show up. Restart your device and you are good to go.

Installing GAPPs suite on Honor 9 (Chinese Version) - NO ROOT NECESSARY

Hello alL,
I come to bring you good news. I have managed to install google play store and other Google Apps on the Chinese version of the Honor 9 (WITHOUT ROOT).
For anyone wondering, here are the steps.
1 - Download this file to your Honor 9.
2 - Decompress the zip file and install "Google Installer_2.0.apk". Don't touch the other files.
3 - Run this app (the newly installed one with the chinese name) and confirm using the Green button near the bottom.
4 - Confirm all prompts for authorisation, ensuring you select "Trust app" to give it full permissions. This will install the core "Google Play Apps Suite" as a user app, meaning that you will be able to uninstall "Play store" by simply dragging it to the top. See 1st screenshot.
5 - Check if Google Play Store has been installed and is working. If android complains about "Missing GMSs", reboot and try again. If still you have problems, try downloading "GMSInstaller apk" from an internet mirror of your choice.
See attached screenshots for proof that it works!

Great guide! Thanks for sharing. This is a safer way than rebrand, but rebrand will bring you a full Europe/US EMUI. You will not see any left-over Chinese characters.

The only downside is you'll be left with some Chinese letters here and there :/
But, it's easier than rebranding

Is there a lot of Chinese left so that it becomes difficult to use the phone? Or more like a minor nuisance? I'm currently in China and positively drooling at the local retail price but I've no access to a computer for rebranding.

Hi, I tried this procedure, I managed to install all the GApps but when I try to login or add google account the phone freezes for a moment and nothing happens. Same behavior on YT, while on Gmail and Play Store it still says "GMS Installer required". I guess that with a chinese phone you need to flash it anyway or it can't reach google servers. Am I right?

Hi,
I previously installed google services successfully using GMSinstaller when I first got my Honor 9 in August.
Now it is upgraded to B201 and because it always crashes when it comes to google play, I ran GMSinstaller again which asked me to uninstall every google related apps.
I did so but now it is impossible to install google again
GMS installer will only propose me to uninstall previously installed google apps, then reboot.
I tried several "Google Installer" including this one, none of them are working.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks

It seems like this B201 update patches the GMS installer

I tried removing all the google stuff (framework, account manager, services, sync) then manually install each of them : still doesn't work.
Does anyone with B201 firmware succeed to install Google ?
Is it possible to downgrade without root/unlock ?
One thing I have not tried yet is reset to factory, If I do so I am wondering if a backup from HiSuite will restore everything...

After Factory reset, GMSinstaller worked again !
But my fear was confirmed : after restoring from HiSuite Backup, I lost some datas in my apps and also all my notes in the notes app
In the end got Google back, that's the most important !!

[ALTERNATIVE][HOW-TO] Workaround GAPPS installation

Before i begin with this tutorial full credit of for the files of this tutorial go to Twilight glass: https://bbs.nubia.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1397112
Welcome to my alternative guide to installing GAPPS on the nubia x. This tutorial is only for people who are having issues with Teeemoo's method of installing GAPPS or for people who to want to have a more up to date version of GAPPS. Im sure most people have already seen Teeemoo's tutorial but for anyone who hasn't, it shows how to root and install GAPPS.
Once again keep in mind this is a workaround and should not be the official way in how to do it, keep your eyes on the Chinese forums if your waiting for updates on twrp and GAPPS. Im not taking any responsibility if anything goes horribly wrong
Teeemoo's: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nubia-x/how-to/how-to-gapps-nubia-x-t3878441
Like Teeemoo's tutorial this requires root, as i don't believe there is any method to install GAPPS without root. I can help with the basics on getting root on the nubia x but if you need a tutorial Teeemoo's tutorial is your best bet and if your still having issues Twilight glass's root tutorial will help, as long as you use google translate.
Now if your all ready we'll begin.
There is this text tutorial but if you are having issues I've uploaded a video to my mega drive (it is the same place as all the other files)
STEP 1: Download the Google folder from the mega link(DOWNLOAD AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE)
STEP 2: Move the files to downloads folder if there not already there.
STEP 3: Install Root Explorer (DOWNLOAD ON MEGA)
STEP 4: Open Root Manager and copy the 4 google folders from downloads to /system/prive-app
STEP 5: Now go to /system/prive-app and select the 4 google folders and select the 3 dots at the top right of the app, then select permission settings.
STEP 6: Enter the octal 0755 and check both options at the bottom (apply to all folders and subfolders, not to subfolders).
STEP 7: Once you have confined these options restart your phone straight away.
STEP 8; IMPORTANT STEP FOR ANYONE WHO IS HAVING DATA ISSUES WITH APPS LIKE GOOGLE PLAY AND YOU TUBE.
Make sure when you open the google play store and login in to your google account with moblie data enabled not wifi (this is important) if you want to be able to use google play and other google apps on data reliably
GOOGLE FILES DOWNLOAD: https://mega.nz/#F!8poGlAqL!lJv5HZaa_iT-mMTWJhk7Hw
This is it for the Google play install for anyone having issues feel free to leave a comment and ill try to get back to you. And once again full credit for the files goes to Twilight glass.
Thanks for reading if this helped please feel free to leave a like.

thx will try soon

Contact sync is still bugged I think cause of how the Nubia software is correct me if I’m wrong however the download issue can be fixed by downloading permission manager and enabling all the permissions needed

The backup is needed. Because as said, you need to factory reset your phone before install google

Can I use with other device, such as Huawei M6?
Really need Google service.

restart the phone, connect to WiFi and wait a few minutes, goto check for the permissions.
Go to settings-> Application -> press the three dots on the upper right corner -> show the system process.

Thank you, I managed by first restoring the backup and than installing the apps and rebooting.
Google login now works mostly.
The first issue I found is that Whatsapp is unable to use the system google account and requires a google login for Drive backup restore of messages.

It doesn't let me add account to playstore / gmail. i've tried all of these many times and enabled all the permissions to Gapps but nothing seems to work here

You need to install Google Drive and all Google stuff, launch all these Google Apps and make sure they are all working, then you can try using apps that relying on it like WhatsApp.
sometimes it just need some time to become completely normal since you have clear the cache for all Google apps previously.
Google Apps and services framework need some time to configure theirself.
You may need to wait and restart your phone for a few times

Ok I have a weird issue. When I restore it's asking me for a password?

I know that it’s not easy and it needs patience and repetition, yeah never give up guys do it again and again until you get it ????

Thank you.
Two questions:
1: the older method (from that Spanish video) worked for me. And even though there are error messages the first time I open any Google app, simply turning off the notification will stop it from popping up again. So I've been doing that with no real issues. Does the new method bring any other benefit other than "no need to even mute the notification the first time"?
2: do you know the risk level of these methods? Like are we opening up a major hole in our phone or Google account for potential dangers? Sorry if this is a dumb question. I am still paranoid about using my real Google account through these methods.

I watched Gatal video the part where he fast forwards is where I think I keep messing up how much time until the GSM framework re appears ?

The fast forward part is not just simply clicking on the screen, but he did unintall and reinstall the framework, Google play, clear cache, clear data.... Etc

I was able to get GSM fully working, without any error notifications popping up whatsoever.
This is what I did (trying to remember from memory)
DISCLAIMER: I take no responsibility on anything bad happening to your device, this worked for me but might
not work for you! Thank you for understanding, I'm just trying to help others here.
1. Download the LZPlay Backup from here:
https://wetransfer.com/downloads/2d...ff5f170d938bd334e98ba2ce20200330034834/8659bc
2. Move it to a memory stick and connect to your Mate XS through OTG
3. Go to Settings -> System -> Backup -> Huawei Backup -> External Storage -> Choose the USB storage and restore
4. Download and extract this file to e.g. root of your phone:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1mhS8tDhXf4AUtpfh9--8Dg8-MJgc_OKv
5. Install the Google Account Manager from the zip
6. Go to Settings -> Users and Accounts -> New Account -> Google. Follow the instructions and add your account
7. Install Google Frameworks from the zip
8. Install Device ID app, I used this:
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/evozi...release/device-id-1-3-0-android-apk-download/
9. Using the App, check if there's anything on the Google Services Framework, if there is, uninstall Google Play Services
10. Install modagain1gsm.apk from the zip
11. Check the ID again using the Device ID add, and close all applications
12. Clear data + cache on Google Services Framework (you can try also uninstalling and reinstalling but my device froze
when I tried to do that)
13. Check ID again and close all applications
14. Uninstall Google Play Services (again, if your device freezes, try first clearing data+cache and force stopping it)
15. Install com.google.android.gms2.apk from the zip
16. Check the ID again
17. Reboot the device
Now after these procedures I was able to install Play Store APK and install all applications normally without any error
notifications popping up.

thanks drfroz ill give it another go tonight.. just to ask does Netflix, Hulu, work ? is there a benefit to keep trying vs just disabling notifications ?

11. Check the ID again using the Device ID add, and close all applications
12. Clear data + cache on Google Services Framework (you can try also uninstalling and reinstalling but my device froze
when I tried to do that)
13. Check ID again and close all applications
14. Uninstall Google Play Services (again, if your device freezes, try first clearing data+cache and force stopping it)
15. Install com.google.android.gms2.apk from the zip
16. Check the ID again
17. Reboot the device
Now after these procedures I was able to install Play Store APK and install all applications normally without any error
notifications popping up.
