I actually have a P30 Pro, if I buy a P40 Pro and I clone all my settings to the new P40 pro, will I have the Google services?
No, You want! I did it p30 pro to P40 pro - everything was moved BUT ring tones (custome) google chrome and wallpaper
I'm sorry, but I'm not getting if it's possible or not.
Did you were able to have Google play store in the p40? Gmail? Youtube? Maps?

NO, I have NO Google services and Google play store
Thank you.
Huawei support told me the same, you can have couple apps, but not the whole package.
I'm afraid I will not buy the amazing p40 pro, I'm sad.
May be a Xiaomi Mi 10 pro?

You just need to follow the guides to install gms and use Gmail/YouTube/Maps etc. (unless i didn't understand your post properly)

I know it can be done, but then, what happens every time a new EMUI is installed? All over again?

My friend did it: installed Google Play Store/Services on P40 Pro. You can not clone from P30 Pro -> P40 Pro to get Google works
After cloning, will Google Pay work? That is, will the phone pass safetynet test?
I have install google gms on my p40 pro, then used phone-clone from my p30 pro. All apps except g-pay works. Maps, contacts, calendar, drive, the lot. Even my banking app and bankid on mobile.
Just not g-pay but I can live without that one ??
When I try to add a card g-pay states that I have root access or that the phone has been otherwise altered ?

Can i ask which banking apps are working for you? I am getting mine tomorrow and trying to decide if its better installing gsm first, then clone. Or the other way around
It is Norwegian bank apps.
I have tried both approach, gms then phone-clone and vice versa.
My experience is that gms on a "empty" phone works best.
Obviously, the phone fails Android SafetyNet Test. You can search in Play Store and download an app to test yours out.
update
Confirm! Updated to .114 yesterday, all Google stuff work as it did.
personally me google play music doesn't work
So, does the phone pass Android SafetyNet Test now? Can check please?
I don't know about safetynet stuff, but my Gpay is working fine.
Did 2 purchases to date, both worked on first try.
Hi guys,
I am very close on getting my self a P40 pro after considering and finding alternative away from GMS. Since Duo security and Google authenticator is not in the Huawei app gallery, will both of this app work by manually installing its APK/side load?
will be using both of this app daily and hoping both of this app work on P40 pro.

Hi Matik,
You sideloaded the GMS to P40 and the Google authenticator worked?
Can I use the P40 pro with a smartwatch that has google pay?
If inserting the card in the smartwatch before synchronizing with the cell phone, would it work?
I have a Motorola 360 2nd gen, and it kinda works. I can do the initial setup for the watch, but I cannot add any google account to the watch, no weather or location update. I do get caller info, sms, email, whatsapp with full text. Without and account I cannot install any apps (left with the default ones).

Every time I pair the watch with a new phone it does a factory reset (at least mine) any data is wiped.
Watch with Wear Os work only with GMS. Without GMS you cant connect it with P40pro. I have tried and no change.
It depends on the type of smartwatch. I have a HW2 and have it paired ok with P30 Pro(Mate 30 Pro before). I also have my google account on the watch. There is a guide for Huawei watches that describes how you can setup/keep the google account on the watch and pair it after with another phone without resseting the watch.
About google pay on the watch...I don't know as I am not using it. Might work since I can open the store on the watch.
I'd be interested to know if Wear OS & Google Pay would work with a P40 Pro with GMS side loaded.
I have a Samsung Active Watch 2 which pairs and works with my P40 Pro, sadly I can't get Samsung Pay to work though on the phone or the watch.

Are you able to download apps on the watch? like Uber?
Is ti possible to set up wear os smartwatch and sync with some phone that is verified by Google (p30 pro for example) and then switch ur phone to p40 pro and continue using gpay on smartwatch without connecting it with phone at all?
Ivve a p40 pro with GMS installed but I can't copy the account... With p20 pro no problem.. I tried to swich to p40 pro but without results. The oppo watch request a new pairing...
Please help meeeee
You cant transfer a Google account over. If you do a search, you can get it to pair to another phone, like a P40, without resetting it but you cant use Playstore. You will need to sideload any apps on to the watch.
Its the only option i found, But always happy to hear of a better one.
So set it up on a GMS enabled phone, then get it paired and swap to the P40.

From my post 2 up, you're not reading it. Do a search or read here https://www.xda-developers.com/pair-android-wear-without-factory-reset/amp/
This routine will allow you move a fully setup watch to your P40. No you wont be able to transfer your account or use G Pay or Playstore BUT as you set your watch up first on a phone you did have a proper G account, you shouldn't need anything else installing and you can use your as normal with your P40

Is your P40 with GMS side loaded? I tried on my Mate 40 Pro. I can't even run Wear OS app as it says my phone doesn't have GMS.
Anyway to connect my new TicWatch Pro 3 to my new Mate 40 Pro?

hi guys my p40 stucks on "retrieving watch details" any help?
Does the Mi 10 Ultra pass SafetyNet? Aka use Google Pay, McDonalds, Pokémon Go.
And if so, how come the Mi 10 passes but the P40 Pro does not (despite both phones coming without GMS preinstalled)?
I have the phone
Security level is L1
Saftey net is as global phone
Google services is running as any global phone..100% no issue with me even in downloading all my bought apps
The only issue is that Google backup and restore is not working and Google Location History is not working. The rest all work fine, Google Pay, maps, play store, etc. on the stock china miui 12 rom of course.
Oops, had a typo. Meant to ask:
How come the Mi 10 Ultra passes but the P40 Pro does not (despite both phones coming without GMS preinstalled)? Neither phone is officially available outside China, so I doubt Xiaomi took the time to Google Certify the Mi 10 Ultra. Where does certification come from?
P40 Pro does not come with GMS pre-installed thanks to Trump.
Trump has banned Google from exporting software and licenses to Huawei, so huawei is legally not allowed to install GMS in their OS, even if not activated.
The last Huawei phone with GMS pre-installed is the P30 Pro.
P40 Pro is also available outside China in many regions with HMS instead.
On the other hand, MIUI comes with GMS pre-loaded inside all their China ROMs as well and also Google certified.
It's just not activated, and even if you activate it in China, it will not work due to the Great China Firewall blocking all GMS.
But once the phone is out of China, that's a different story, we just need to install Play Store and all GMS get activated auto-magically.
Some features are not working great as the China rom still have some tiny blocks, notably Google Location History and Backup and Restore.

If a license from Google to Huawei is all that's required. Why don't they just work around it? Can't Google just release the blob of GMS (I understand releasing the source is probably not a good idea) as freeware that doesn't require a license?
Also, what does Xiaomi use in China if not GMS or HMS?
So have you managed to install Netflix successfully and make payments with Google pay?
Thanks!

Google Pay is installed directly from the Play Store. I have use apk mirror for Netflix and Prime Video as that was not available on play store.
Netflix absolutely works. Someone who said it doesn't either doesn't know about side loading or did something wrong. You just have to download the apk from somewhere other than the play store. Works fine.

Try changing NFC setting default wallet to "Use HCE Wallet"
I have it for a month now. Hardware - perfect. System - looks stable. BUT... google apps and services? Forget it.
Yes, I am from middle Europe, used to have Google services on every step. I use google Photos, Gmail, Drive, Maps, Youtube, Chromecast, Android Auto, Notes, Docs, Drive... Guess what. All of that is gone.
I came from Huawei P30 PRO which was one of the best phones and still is (it has GMS – google services). P40 PRO can use Googlefier and google is back. My logical option was to upgrade from P30 PRO to P50 PRO and simply use solution as Googlefier.
AND HOW WRONG I WAS!!
P50 PRO international uses EMUI 12 and not Harmony OS 2.0 as Chines version. Chines version is having possibility to load google services but not the international. Believe me, I have try like many others.
THERE IS NO WAY THAT WE INSTALL GMS ON INTERNATIONAL VERSION.
DO NOT BUY THIS PHONE IF YOU USE GOOGLE SERVICES.
Right now use gmail and google photos in browser!! I have 100GB of drive space to use it in a browser is a nightmare.
THIS PHONE IS “CANDY” WITH A NIGHTMARE!
Gspace, dualspace, VMS… you ask? It’s all a joke. Buggy and full of limitations, notifications not working, total add platform on every touch. You have to wait 5 seconds for every app you open or use again. I would buy the app but I am not convinced. Safety is questionable.
AppGalery and Pental? Please, I would rather not comment.
Half of my local apps do not work as those depend on google services. Just try to install Strava for instance, parking app, paying apps, local weather, TV casting, receiver control, smart apps… NOT WORKING
Now what should I do? Two options.
I can wait for someone to make native GMS to work. I will wait for maybe a month.
Sell this NIGHTMARE of a PHONE for something less attractive but working normally.
Second option should be my first option as I spend too much time (whole month) to fix GMS on my P50 PRO.
For 1200,00 € (Some $ 1330,00 USD ) I can easy get iPhone 13 PRO MAX or Samsung Galaxy S22+ 5G.
I should point out that I loved my P30 PRO and I don’t care what Trump thinks about Huawei.
HUAWEI, HONOR and company. No, thank you, never again. Sadly my options are elsewhere. I am certain many will follow.
Let me know if I am wrong.
Well Gspace works for me. Google photos backup also works for me via Gspace (just had to configure to run autostart and battery optimization). Google drive uploading via Gspace works flawlessly.
I use DAVx for contact and calendar sync. Use Aurora store for installing apps (most of the apps are working even the games).
Only problem I see is WhatsApp Backup on Google drive, which I am managing by taking a local backup via a script, when I change PHONE, as I frequently switch between my Xiaomi 12 Pro and P50 Pro.
Pretty happy with the device even with the limitations.
I am searching for a way to install Harmonyos on it, so far found none, maybe if it can be done, it will heal you to install Gms.

Wish you post it a few days earlier before I was on a decision, P50 Pro or iPhone 13 Pro Max (same price until the last euro) and chose Huawei for a better camera and consult guy promises that Gspace will solve everything for me.
Hardware itself is awesome. But... Very missing a Google Services and all it integrations. Hope that one day they appears.
hello, i have the p40pro and i bought the p50pro for 850 dollars for a gift watch the gt2pro is compliant with the type of use i give it i use modified gspace it does not carry advertisements and aurorastore the only problem i see is in some applications that it does not maintain them in background
