Is there a way to downgrade without a pc? - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

Like above I just got a P40 Pro. I updated the firmware without the acknowled that you can't install Google with the new version. The only reason why I want Google is the YouTube app and Pokémon Go won't work without.
As the title says I don't have a windows pc, just a Macbook. I red a article that you can downgrade with a USB. Luckily I have a USB C laying around.
Has anyone a nice tutorial and maybe even a firmeware link to download?
Good day guys!

here is my tutorial, but in german language: https://youtu.be/EydJcYIlI8o

But it won't work, like the title says I don't have a windows PC.

without pc, sorry ...

What about using a stick? I could just move the firmware via the dload method on to a stick and "update". Would that work?

Had the same issue, you need to use HiSuite Proxy. The HiSuite version of MacOS is different and not as full featured as the windows version. I used a windows emulator on my Mac but it didn't seem to want to install the HiSuite.exe. I bought a cheap used notebook to downgrade my software.

Did you tried to install Google ??
A friend has install it on Mate30 pro yesterday and today.

Won't work because for the first link I don't have the right firmware (can't downgrade without windows PC)
Second video is the same. The app won't work with the new firmware.

Install Huawei HiSuite on your pc and connect phone with your usb cable.. hit update and it should update your phone.. I think it may do it incrementally.. so 9.0 then 9.1 and finally 10.0.. You will see...
Look at this thread.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p20-pro/development/emui-10-hisuite-proxy-t4109035
If you need any informations I can help.
Yeah.. was able to figure it out.. and am currently in 9.1 using the HiSuite via PC. Is Android 10 update worth it? If so, i will do it manually via firmware finder method.

Yes, it's a pure refresh from 9.1 (a crappy port of Android 9.1)
The firmware finder way is not working anymore. You can use the app to get the links. Nothing more.
You need Hisuite Proxy and Hisuite.
See my posts and everything.
After sometime, again i got few more updates,, and i am currently downloading Android 10 again.. So atleast it wil be with latest security patches.. lets see how it goes..
Btw, i saw a GSI image of Android 10 for P20 Pro. any one uses it here?

You can't use it unless you unlock your bootloader, which Huawei stopped doing. They then proceeded to remove the method used to unlock the device in Android 10.
Yeah.. i just found out.. its so sad.. its such a beautiful device,, unlocking would have let me use it for a long time now..

Mate 30 Pro install GMS Help

Hi everyone. I had reset my phone settings and to my dismay, my google playstore and stuff are wiped as well. I had downgraded my firmware 3-4 times and the last one I can get from HiSuite is 10.0.0.217
- I had tried using Lzplay method, but when I click google playstore sign in button, it does not work
- I had tried using Hisuite proxy but it always mention unable to connect to Hisuite, asking me to check firewall (I had allowed those app to go through in fact)
- Tried Googlefier but playstore just auto close when I press on it.
- I do not have USB thumb drive to flash a lower version of EMUI for my mate 30 pro
- Tried Dualspace but still looking to sideload GMS
Is there by chance any way I can solve this issue? Thanks in advance
I had managed to resolve it using factory restore (I learned the hard way of using proxy to flash the oldest version but eventually factory restore does the trick)
Thank you so much for @bender_007, microG & EloYGomeZTv for the awesome guide

Can anyone guide me on how to downgrade my Mate 30 Pro 4g European 11.0.0.188 to EMUI 10 using Hisuite proxy? I don't want to brick and the Hisuite proxy instructions got me confused.

Anyhow. I'm replying to my own comment for future readers. I was able to downgrade my Mate 30 Pro to 10.0.0.134. Unfortunately, googlefier wouldn't work. The worst part is that if you downgrade from 11 to 10, your phone completely looses USB connection to PC and you loose fast and super fast charge. Normal charge was slower than a turtle. So, I went back to 11.0.0.188 (the version I was at before downgrade) to get fast charge and USB working again. Needs to be the same version you were at to get it working again. I'll live without Google. But my next phone, unless HUAWEI has Google, I'm switching to a different brand. I need working notifications. Hope info helps.

Downgrade from 11 to 10 for install GMS (HELP)

Hello guys. I have a mate 30 pro 4g EU version. LIO-L29
EMUI version - 11.0.0.188
I wanna downgrade to 10. Because i wanna install GMS. I have succes downgrade last 2 week on p40 pro.
Now i try first to downgrade first from Hisuite. I have install Hisuite_10.1.0.550, but i dont have the button switch to other version.
if i try to HiSuite Proxy, i recive error:
[15:48:06]: Connection To HISuite Proxy Failed....
[15:48:07]: Check If Your Firewall Is Blocking HISuite's Proxy Server
i have add the app to the firewall, i have stopped the firewall...same
Please help me to figure out.
Hey man. I'm in the same boat. Unfortunately, I don't think we are able to downgrade to a lower version. So, we are stuck without Google. The only negative of not having GMS is the delay or no notifications coming in at all. Hopefully apps will be updated to work well with HUAWEI notification eco system.
Hey bro. I have succed to make it
ช่วยบอกวิธีทำหน่อย thank you
Hey, can you share with us how you downgraded from 11.0.0.188. Thank you.
With hisuite proxy
Thanks. Which firmware version you downgraded to?
Well, after multiple attempts using different firmware versions, the update fails after it has reached the 100% download. Have no clue what else to do. Firewalls are off, antivirus off. Anybody?

I followed this guide: Make sure those selections matches your phones need (region, etc..). If they don't match,..you know what might happen.
Complete Guide
Modifying HiSuite and manipulating it's connection data to install Roms before they officially get released. - ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
github.com
BUT like I mentioned at a different thread. If downgrading to 10, Googlefier Wouldn't work. Also, I had lost USB connection and fast/super charge. But I think downgrading to a lower 11 should be ok. But I don't know. If you loose that, just upgrade again.
@robjbw thanks for answering. It will help everyone.

Try update again to 11.0.0.194 by OTA while mobile is charging. Then downgrade again using EloyGomez TV method if transfer data works

Wear OS on Huawei P40 Pro?

Hey guys,
I'm using my Huawei P40 Pro for a while, now. Everything worked fine, I basically never needed GMS / Google or I could find good workarounds. Now, I've bought a Suunto 7 Smartwatch; their customer support told me it should be fine and working. But the "official" Wear OS app tells me my phone is not supported and I need to get a Chinese version. After installing said Chinese version, I can connect my phone to the watch, but right after connecting (when retrieving data from the phone), Wear OS (Chinese) tells me to install the "official" version from Google Play Store when being outside of China (which I obviously am; in Austria).
So, I've also tried to do a rollback / downgrade of EMUI (currently installed EMUI 12), but the "official" downgrade via HiSuite does not work, the option does not exist. I was hoping to use the Googlefier method, down on EMUI 10.
I've tried Gspace and microG, but nothing works.
Can you help me out?
I basically just need Wear OS working with my watch.
Thank you very much!
Model: ELS-NX9
