I'm really interested in this phone but should I wait for the EU version or buy the version they are selling in china
It seems ok frequency wise - https://www.frequencycheck.com/comp...-dual-sim-td-lte-64gb-nxt-al10/united-kingdom
I've seen people pick international English on a menu and it looked all English - is that correct ? - even the non google stuff
Would I have to worry about anything else ?
Any help most appreciated as I want to replace my one plus one that is starting to feel under powered with the amount of tasker stuff I'm running on it
thanks

You do need to check the frequencies as you have done. The Mate 8 has allot of bands covered.
Android OS on Huawei's phones have about every language available. There is some apps on the phone that is in Chinese, but they can be removed, and are for the china market.
Google Apps will not be preloaded, but you will need to download from the Huawei App Store called HiApp. That HiApp app is in mixed Chinese and English, so not everything is translated. After that you have Google Apps, and can download from Google Play that will follow your OS language.
I have had the Honor 6, Honor 6 Plus, Honor 7 and now Mate S, all the Chinese version and they have all been working fine here in Denmark. I have had no problems with network, GPS or WiFi here or on vacation. .
..oh, the change log for OS updates are (mostly) in Chinese

Thanks for the info. But to be clear. Do you download the google playstore using HiApp?

Yes, you do.
It is quite simple: Open HiApp -> Search "Google" -> Click on the Google banner in the top of the search results -> All Google apps is listed, click the download button for each (downwards arrow).
Other than Google Play, you need the Contact sync and Calander sync apps from the list. The rest can be downloaded from Google Play Store afterwords.
I had no troubles with a P8max recently, most sellers out of China will pre-install Google Play for you. My Mate 8 arrives next Monday, can let you know of if it differs any from the P8Max in terms of language difficulties.
Hi,
I bought a Mate 8.
It come with google playstore installed.
I arrived to install all app I want from google playstore.
The only problem I foun, I can't import my contact list, but will be solve for sure.
Two of us have Google contacts sync working, although neither of us is entirely sure how (I was granting permissions/trusted status/open from other apps statuses etc as a batch, so not sure which of those actions allowed for contacts import sorry).
If your google contact can't not sync.
Do you install the google contact sync? you can find it from the "huawei app store".
Install the google contact sync apk, and remove your account, reboot, login your contact again.
It works fine in my mate8 with google contact.
I can use almost all of google service in mate 8 now. (no matter google play, gmail, hangout, contact or anyother)
But, the only problem is that I can't get the location during google map without GPS enable.
Google map can't use cell or wifi to detect where it is, but it work fine with GPS enable.
I have no idea that how to fix it...
After searching the solution from google, it seems I need to root and replace networklocation.apk....
Is there any other method? (I don't know how to root huawei's device...)
I've recieved my mate 8 a week ago, and have had the issues that most of you are talking about.
Assuming the issue is from the battery manager itself; click on the setting icon up left of the screen, you need to switch on (Keep mobile data on when sleeping).
Of course that is in congunction with the rest of the settings/permissions.
Good luck,
Just don't forget to update emui

is it fast and smooth? is the cpu very powerful?
Yes - not had any problems at all.
I'm coming from a one plus one with a few badly writtern tasker profiles (quiet at work, and home nights with auto voice and autovera stuff), 3 mail clients including a touchdown exchange one. It was too much for the one plus but my new mate 8 is still flying.
Problems I have/had
The sync thing - was mashmellow permissions and a restart. (You do not need to wipe and restart.
The app draw - not a problem just a concept change the mate 8 doesn't have one your home screens are your app draw. So its a case of being tidy with folders. But swiping up on the home screen gives you an app search.
Dictionary - wish I could figure out how to copy the words I had stored in my dictionary.
Chinese App store - keeps telling me I have 18 apps that need updating - they don't the are just wanting to change to the chinese version.
Battery life - the one plus would last a day and 1/2 if I forgot to charge it the 1/2 I would start not usjng it, mate 8 will nearly last 2 days (it also gives me stats in ma about what is eating the battery)
Overall its a great phone

I've received my mate 8 one week ago... And unfortunately I had a rare problem with my notifications (whatsapp, viber, and other apps).
I did trust those apps from the system, and followed the instructions from the huawei guide, but the problem still.
So anybody have any idea how to solve this problem.
Thanks
Hi, i want to buy a Mate 8 but I'm not sure for the sync problem for google. what type of problem you have?
it is a great phone but unfortuantely I have the same problem with the google sync as well as not getting any notifications. Please help!
didnt someone mention that putting the phone into performance mode solved this?
Tried it hasn't worked for me
Location Services are not working unless you activate GPS - AL10 model;
Any solutions?
yeah, several other users already reported that energy-saving location services somehow dont seem to work...unless u switch to high-performance mode @gps
Hey guys, I am trying to login to Huawei services and I always get the message "due to service location restrictions the system is unable to provide services to you".
Does anyone knows how to bypass that?

Looking to grab the mate 30 Pro.. Or potentially the p40 Pro after tomorrows launch. But really wanna check out the slow mo on the mate, plus love the design
I'm an android user.
Been doing a lot of reading and still struggling to grasp if I actually need google services on my phone or not? I know I won't have generic Google apps, but there a possibility to install them. Done some custom rom installs many moons ago.
I'll still have my Samsung s10e work phone.
Can anyone clarify or point me in the direction of an an article that explains the pros and cons?
Failing this it looks like the p30 pro is by best alternate. As I tend not to go mainbsteam Samsung
Hi there,
The installation of gms right now is unstable or tricky. For example using Chatpartner+Ice Box+Island is the most stable as it gets, but it has its own drawbacks(you can see info about the methods in the other threads). I don't know if we will get a clean permanent solution. I hope we get.
So let's assume you don't get gms, because you don't want to mess with the current unstable solutions. The drawbacks from my point of view are:
- no PlayStore -> So you don't get your paid apps. Also you can't get all apps from the Huawei store, because some of them are missing. Some partial solution: Use ApkPure or some other app store to get your apps.
- no Youtube -> Youtube requires gms. Solution: use Youtube Vanced;
- no Google Maps -> It requires gms. Solution: use Waze;
- no Google Drive/Photos -> It requires gms. Solution: use Microsoft OneDrive or any other cloud;
- no Contact Sync -> It requires gms. Solution: export contacts from Google and import them.(here I decided again to go with Microsoft so I sync my future new contacts in a cloud after all)
- no Gmail -> It requires gms. Solution: use Outlook app or any other email app like Nine. You can add you gmail account there.
Some people suggested to use the google apps through a browser and put shortcuts on your home screen, but this is not a replacement for the actual apps in my oppinion.
Bottom line:
- If you don't want any hassle and you want everything everywhere working then get P30 Pro;
- If you want to try the available workarounds for google apps and you won't get overwhelmed or irritated when some errors occur and you have to tinker again then get the Mate 30 Pro;
- If you want to detach from google ecosystem and try some new apps then get the Mate 30 Pro(just make sure you thought of all apps that you need and found a comfortable replacement);
- For the P40 Pro I can't speak;
I have one of the workarounds of GMS on my phone and the apps are working. However I am trying to move away a bit from gms, because I want to be free to try new tech and use all my apps. I am a heavy Google user paying for subscriptions for some services so I am dependent on their apps. However with this phone I realized that Google is closing their services forcing users to have certain hardware which I dislike. This is why I will make an attempt to use alternatives(mostly I will use Microsoft products) so I can buy whatever phone I like and use it seamlessly.
I hope this helps!

Chatpartner+Ice Box+Island , but I see someone just created a thread saying that ChatPartner doesn't work now(I don't know if it is true). However Chatpartner is just the first part for getting the gms on the device which can be achieved also with other methods like restoring a backup which has this chinese app for installing gms(you can search, videos are everywhere showing it). Then afterwards probably you will start getting the non-stop notifications that your device is not certified. From that point you will need to follow the guides to add your account and then use Ice Box to freeze some google apps(playstore and services). This way you won't get the notifications, but any installed google apps will work. From there you can use Island to activate your work profile and unfreeze those apps in an isolated scope where you can have your Play Store to get apps or you can just use some other app store. You can get more details in the other threads, basically this is the main topic in the whole Mate 30 Pro forum.

the installation of gms is tricky complicated for most users, but it can be done if you want to learn. it works for now but no one knows till when.
the P40 definitely wont have GMS too, so if this is a problem, go with another brand or P30 or mate 20 if you still want huawei.
Hey Guys,
I have found a way to install GMS on Mate 30 Pro, (P40 PRO, P40 LITE, MATE XS).
I have written a full tutorial and have recorded a video with all the steps.
Basically, we restore a backup with LZPlay and icebox app. Freeze Google services framework via ADB with Icebox. And authenticate with an old Google account manager.
Please use the guide on this link and let me know if there are any troubles for you (It´s in Portugueses , please use Google translate) . I have tested it more than 10 times in several models to assure everything is OK.
I am available to answer any questions you may have. Here´s a video:

Do you manage to avoid errors and have Google pay working or device is still detected as unlicensed after applying your tutorial?
One question, if you unlock the google Framework freeze, and then turn on the Play Store and disable all notifications like Gmail, Youtube, Fb and Others, you will no longer be able to receive notifications from these apps. Isn't it better to leave in the freeze Framework and use an alternative store like APKPure or Aurora Store?

You are correct. No notifications from these apps. If you don unfreeze framework apps wont run. So, better to dont have notifications than no apps.
This is only a problem for GMAIL, but you can install another email Client. Anyway it´is what it is right now.

they are just tweaks of the same method that was originated by phiphan1 in the other thread , for example they stopped using chat apk because chat apk stopped working , they didnt use island because they just use a different app store or hide notifications not fix them etc etc , every one of them fixes comes with its own little problems and the most stable fix that is available is the new one from phiphan1 who has been working on this non stop with other users
the only reason the other videos and method exsist is because phiphan1 work , i am not knocking you for sharing , you are not to know if you havent been following for the last few weeks , however i am trying to help other users who read this realise that they should bhe in the other thread because its got the latest fix and the person who kind of made all this possible is the original poster in that thread and we are lucky to have him working on this kind of stuff

in the video you/they disable notifications , this isnt a fix , it will work for a while , it could stop etc with play warning and you are just hiding the notifications which means they are still pinging in the background which affects battery etc
honestly .... the op of the other thread has been through all this for the last 3 weeks .... the latest fix with the 2 new apk files added is the best fix at the moment .... he is so far ahead of the game he is already working on the next one

I think you should list some credits to the user/users who came up with this concept. I understand you have a bit of a different way, but the concept is the same and some users were very active and hard working to get these things done. They deserve credit.

Im still on HMS and have no intention of sideloading GMS until now... my problem is that I'm not getting any Push notifications from viber, telegram, and microsoft teams. Will this fix the issue/s?
hello guys
Im planning to buy a new phone, but im stuck comparing between the P40 pro and P30 pro NE , as ive ssen a lot of people complaining about the google service and how big of hastel to sideload them and all. and also even after side loading them there seems some people who are still complaining that they do not work very well or at least not as they soppus to,
well my greatest concern is the Google map which i like the most , ive tryed maps me for a while but it didnt do the whole trick it missed some informations i think, and also my concern is after i side loade GSM would the probplem appear again after whije , perhaps after an update or somthing
sorry for my bad english
There are a lot of ways to install GMS, when it works it will work 90% it will miss some things like Google pay and notifications the notifications can work via icebox or freezing Google Play framework, however this will mess with GPS at the moment.
I have mine setup without notifications and it works good. You can also try Here Maps if you dont need GMS for other things.
Also the P30 Pro NE is not a good buy the normal P30 Pro is cheaper and only misses some color options and and has a base model with 128gb.
If i had to choose again i would opt for the P40 Pro again the minor hassle has a better overal phone and gave me the chance to go with some alternatives instead of Google services for everything.

are you saying if i go for the P30 pro 2019 is better because of the price , and also would the 128gb make diffrence or thats something will not hinder the experience
Exactly that for me it is P30 Pro NE > P30 Pro (Better price) > P40 Pro
For me 128gb is enough, i use Google Photos and my pictures are in the cloud. For music i use Tidal. So basically i do not need so much. But you have to see for yourself if that would be enough

I was in a similar position about a month ago, but what you can do in advance of commiting to a handset is try out the alternatives on your current devices, I use the recommended one by Huawei which is here we go, and you know what its super clean and really well formatted. Ive not really missed GMS as HMS is offering everything quite rapidly
If you want to use Google accounts, then forget the P40 .. you can read the threads here and it is still a problem.
If you want to de-Google your life a bit, and your apps work ok on the P40 Pro, then you can get a few DXOMARK points and buy the P40 Pro.
Plenty of map alternatives work fine without GMS install. I am using HMS+microG install (so no GMS) ....
a) HereWeGo
b) Waze
c) Google Go Maps
d) Google Maps works fine but no login
Hi All,
I have gotten a p40 pro a few days ago (EMUI 11), and need the Barclays app functioning for their code generator. I can't install the app through APKs, I get the shared directory error. I found a thread containing a fix in this forum, but unfortunately it doesn't work on my device (I think it's because I'm on EMUI 11 which is more recent, URL of the fix : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/shared-directory-error-fix.4048319/ )
Also tried Gspace and dualspace, no luck there either. Did anyone manage to get Barclays working on their p40 pro?
Sorry can't really comment on the barclays app specifically but I manage to get the natwest one running via dualspace. What I find tho is It will stop working if I load to many apps into dual space, so I basically use dual space for only a couple of apps. That seems to give me more days usage before it eventually all stops and I have to reinstall dualspace and apps. Also find with dualspace and natwest app will never install straight away need to leave it pending download for couple of days before eventuality installs Where as say hangouts will always install each time straight away.

If it fails then use the broom icon and to clean up then Start again this time you don't need to Install backup so start Video after the backup and try again. Then use

Hi All,
I have gotten a p40 pro a few days ago (EMUI 11), and need the Barclays app functioning for their code generator. I can't install the app through APKs, I get the shared directory error. I found a thread containing a fix in this forum, but unfortunately it doesn't work on my device (I think it's because I'm on EMUI 11 which is more recent, URL of the fix : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/shared-directory-error-fix.4048319/ )
Also tried Gspace and dualspace, no luck there either. Did anyone manage to get Barclays working on their p40 pro?

Hello, i had the same Problem with this app, the only way that worked for me was "VMOS Pro".
Same thing for " Lidl Plus app" here in Germany.
My Phone is a P40 lite 5G

So you use it for Barclays banking? It says it's a virtual machine, I'm wondering if this is secure or if your info is getting collected
Hi,
okay, I have to wait now until I get my Barclay card.
So far I have only installed the app.
When I start the app, it remains
it stops immediately in the first screen.
When I launch the app in vmos, the app runs right through to the login screen.
So I suspect that the app would continue to work.
I can only check this next week when I receive my login data from barclay.
I will report it then.
So long I ask for patience.
Sorry if I should have awakened false hopes.

in the case of lidl plus app,
here i saw today that there was an update of this app in the aurora store.
after this update now lidl plus app works normally on my phone. without vmos.
now i am only missing the satellite app.
This only works with vmos, dual space and gspace.

Hey, I believe Lidl Plus is offered on the AppGallery (pretty sure I saw it, though I don't use it as I don't have a Lidl nearby).
Barclays mail support is frustrating tbh, I mailed them to ask when they're planning to support HMS devices, they asked me to send photos of the error I get when I try to install, I did that and then they ghosted me...
Yes, Lidl app does, but not Lidl Plus app.
Your problem with the Barclay app may be different from mine.
I have a P40 lite 5G and have EMUI 10.
For me, the app starts and stops at the first screen.
with vmos the app goes to the login screen.
as you describe it, the app does not start at all on your phone.
so I suspect you have a completely different reason for the not working.
the way you write, you can't even install the barclay app on your phone.
that was no problem for me.
I installed the barclay app from the aurora store.
please try this out.
if that doesn't work, then your problem is different from mine.
I have the barclaycard app working on my phone... It got loaded via phone clone off My p20 pro if that helps...

1.91.1 to be clear this is the barclaycard app.
But if you have a phone you can clone from that might work... I know I had problems with the NatWest app until push messaging was working after gms install...
