I've finally found a way to have google pay running while having my Mate XS. I decided to buy a Wear OS smartwatch which comes with google pay hoping that thing would be easy enough to setup but because the GAPPS have been sideloaded, the phone refuses to connect my google accounts to the watch. If you follow my steps below, you'll be able to use your smartwatch smoothly with your Mate XS or any Huawei smartphones for that matter.

PREREQUESITE:
1. Another smartphone which runs google apps from factory and supports google pay (tap&pay)
2. A computer that can run ADB (ADB on computer required to send commands to the watch)
3. Huawei phone (Mate XS in my case)
4. GAPPS installed and running on Huawei phone
Step 1:
Download Google Pay and Wear OS on both the Huawei phone and the other phone but don't open them.
Step 2:
Connect your google account(s) to the other phone, setup and pair your smartwatch to that phone and don't forget to copy your google accounts to the watch.
Step 3:
Setup your bank card(s) on Google Pay if not done already.
Step 4:
When the watch is connected to the other phone, turn off bluetooth of that phone.
Step 5:
Connect your watch to the computer and run ADB (Depending your watch brand, it can be done wired or wireless guide here)
Step 6:
Follow the guide from step 5 and when your watch is connected with the Huawei Mate XS, open google pay (ON THE WATCH)
Step 7:
The watch will prompt you to finish the bank card(s) setup on your phone, just follow the prompts and repeat the step on your watch should you want to add more cards.
Done!! Now you have your Google account(s) setup on the watch as well as google pay
I needed to do that if the GMS is installed on mate xs it's easier
I followed the steps but as the Google Pay on the watch starts to connect to the Google Pay on the Mate XS to add a card, the Google Pay on the Mate XS just shuts down, leaving the watch trying to add the card for good.

don't you think the watch is too old to work because normally it shouldn't close just uninstall google pay and try the installation?

It is not too old at all. It works the Google Pay normally with other very old phones. The watch does not close. What disappears is the Google Pay app on the Huawei Mate XS. It flashes out as the watch tries to add a credit card but it is still there as an opened app in the recent apps view. I can open it separately as an app but that doesn't do anything. I tried reinstalling Google Pay on the phone but getting the same result.
I got a new Fossil Gen 5 instead of the Huawei Watch 2. I followed the steps and ended up with the same result. Google Pay on the watch initiates the process of adding cards but on the phone Google Pay just opens then flashes out to the background for ever. Any ideas?

I have a Mate XS with gms installed and running well for a year now except Google Pay doesn't work. I followed the steps on post #1 above on my new Fossil Gen 5. The Watch is now connected to the Mate XS and Google Pay on the phone opens up then hangs to the background as I try to add a card on the watch.

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?
Hi everyone,
So although that I had made attempts to successfully install gms without any errors, I did not fully succeed in any of the guides. My firmware was 114 or 117 (don't remember now) and I tried several times with this firmware, as well as with 121 firmware (the only update I had).
So far, Google photos, Google maps, Google drive, YouTube, whatsapp, all work, however I am getting the notification "device is not play protect certified" when I open them (attached).
NEVERTHELESS, I do note foll:
- whatsapp backup successfully restored from Google drive, - Google photos sync and backup successfully between devices
- maps work (haven't actually navigated, but seems that everything is calculated properly).
-Contacts have synced with my Google contacts
-Gmail app works, but whenever I launch the app I get a banner saying "Google is having trouble with play services. Please try again", however I can see behind the banner that all new mails are there, but if i click the compose msg button, then I keep getting the error and cannot proceed.
-What I noticed though is that no any app currently installed on my p20 pro has been restored from play store on the p40 pro.
-i have NO notifications from Google apps
-Google search app works only for searching, I have no cards displayed on Google feed and it shows that I am not signed in, although all other Google apps have me properly signed in.
-Google Home does not work, since it does not allow me to sign in.
-Youtube works normally without any errors, actually I am also receiving notifications of newly uploaded videos :/
What the heck is going on? How come they partly work since my device is not certified and I am getting the notification page in all Google apps when they first launch?

IMO you should factory reset the phone and try another method for installing GMS until you find one that works for you. I tried a few and this way I was able to made it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=83303057&postcount=262
It seems it is not possible to have both notifications and play store working together, so you use Icebox to freeze Google Play after restoring your purchased in order to have notifications. Then use a replacement store like Aurora.
Good luck and don't give up ?
I have Google installed, with Google Play and notifications active (I don't know if that metod still works)

A friend had installed Google on Mate30 pro yesterday and today from here:
https://youtu.be/VA-gyruGORo

I've tried both of these methods and both work on my P40 Pro with firmware .131. I've now updated to August security patch .154 and all Google services are still working fine.

Thanks mate
I tried many methods so far, the one you used, one from a German guy, the other from the Portuguese guy (video in English) but all more or less resulted the same.
What I cannot understand is whether I do have play services working after all, or not, since as I said, my content syncs, although I am getting the non-certified error. Ok, and I do not have notifications from gapss.. [emoji23]
So I am really really confused.

Mine didn't work with that, or did it? I really don't know what to say. It's just weird, I have my content but I have this error and I don't have any notifications, yet everything syncs. Google photos sync automatically between my p20 pro and the p40 pro, etc

No, it is not save to install a firmware that does not suite to your device. In best case it just can't be installed, in worst case you'll brick your phone. This is at least what I think and what a heard from other user reports in this forum. Do you have difficulties to find the right firmware?

So what I can say from my side, Gmail app works for me. And Google Home allows me to sign in. Anyway I don´t use this app, so I cannot say more about it.
On the other side I had problems with syncing contacts and calendar.. but I found a solution.
Maybe the "functionality" refers to the firmware, maybe the GMS installation is just not "perfect".
Any other apps, that don´t work for you.? I can install them on my phone and try, if they are not country related, as "food delivery service" you´ve mentioned?

First of all, thanks vm for your assistance
You can try to search for "efood delivery" , but even netflix does not let me sign in, although their behavior is different; when i click sign in to netflix, i get the pop up abt the device not being certified, then takes me back to initial netflix screen. In the efood app, I click to launch the app, i get the error and then the app closes again. The weird thing is that efood is also in appGallery (huawei native store), so supposedly it should work.
To be honest, I love huawei devices for their build quality, cameras, battery performance and I have been debating with myself on whether I should buy the p40 pro (i really need google apps for so many reasons- home automation by using google home, etc), but I guess I am screwed; unless I make things work properly i will have to keep using my p20 pro.

I just installed efood delivery, at least it lets me to sign in via facebook.
Concerning Netflix. It doesn´t work on some devices. I had problems with OnePlus and also with my Huawei P40 Pro at the beginning. Now it works (after installing through Aurora Store I think). I don´t think it is GSM related. For me it works. But there are some solutions in the app-section on XDA.

The installation is far from perfect i tell you that
Let me ask you something, so if you have a successful gms installation, i take it that after that you have to freeze gsf in order to have push notifications of you have normal push notifications?I am somewhat confused on this. Do you have to freeze gsf to have push and then to unfreeze only when you want to use playstore?

No, I didn´t freeze anything. But as I remember it didn´t work from the beginning. I tried so many things and actually I don´t know why everything is working now. I should have written down all my steps . I think I also updated Google services. For syncing contacts I had to downgrade GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.
And I still didn´t recognize, if I get all the notifications that are possible. But I get them for my mails and all other messages (using signal for sms), whatsapp and I don´t miss anything.
If I understood correctly you imported your apps from your P20? Another idea, that there is a conflict with this method? I didn´t have this opportunity as I came from a non huawei device. I had to install all my apps from scratch using Aurora as well as Playstore especially for my paid apps.

Since I had nothing to lose (phone not being properly setup with gms) I restored my p20 pro backup via hisuite. All my data, even home screen, were restored, minus 76 apps which failed for no apparent reason, I just saw a msg that 76 apps did not complete restoration (I have more than 250 apps installed normally)
Now I am pairing my Samsung watch active 2 to see if this works, but as I see it, I will have to try again from scratch.

Of course I cannot know but HiSuite could be the problem, especially if you restore data from a different device. Did you just restore app data or also system data? I´m not firm with HiSuite, but also with former devices I sometimes had conflicts by using backup apps - one reason I miss root.... but I knew it before and still happy with Huawei and the given solutions here on XDA.
So yes, maybe give it a second try, but please don´t make me responsible if you brick your phone ... Good luck!

Or you try to reset all your settings first through the phone´s menu. Maybe you have also restored settings from your older device which cause a conflict now.

Thanks mate, it starts getting a bit more clear now[emoji16]

I also noted that in my setting menu when I select Google account it just keeps loading, is it the same in yours?
P.s: yesterday I inserted my sim cards and got a notification for 154 update, finally.. [emoji23] (although I won't be doing the update until I get this working)
FOR the time being, with my device as is, I would say that I could use it if I had Google home working (my local food app suddenly started to work), even though I am getting the error page when I open apps, since it seems that at the same time apps are working. Any solution on that?

Hi
I have a P40 Pro which I did manage to get most of the Google software working on (apart from pay and gmail notifications)
I have just purchased a car that does not have Android Auto on it, but they do have an after market add on module I can buy that would add Android Auto to my vehicle. The P40 Pro is not on the list of compatible phones. Does anyone know if this will work before I go ahead and buy the unit? The supplier can't help.
There are various phones that run Android 10 eg Google and Samsung that are listed as compatible. It also says all Android 11 phones. The P40 Pro is still on Android 10. However I have had no issues in installing Android Auto from the Play Store.
What I really want to do is to be able to run other maps in the car such as Google Mapes or Waze.
The supplier can't help as technically I shouldn't even be able to run Play Store or Google maps, all of which work 100% fine on my phone.
(Just to add I used Googleify my phone when it first came out and my Gmail account still works. I get emails through OK and Calendar syncs automatically etc. Play Store works fine and I can download apps from there - the phone is running the latest security updates and some things in Googleify seem broken, but everything that was working when I first installed this a year ago seems to still be working - just in case this helps)
Many thanks
If you have install google services on the phone yes android auto will work if it's gspace android auto won't work

I have installed Google Services, and Android Auto is working fine.
You need to install Android Auto from APK file.

Thanks, but I think I'll be stuck with P40 Pro for a while since no official Google support for P40 Pro and slow updates

Thanks from your reply, but i downloaded from the Google Play and it doesn't work on my car unit!
Yes, is working on the smartphone, but doesn't launch the android auto on the car! It is always trying to connect on USB but seems that something is wrong.
Also have to tell that i have a P30 Pro and is working great on the same car.
Any thoughts??

Uninstall Maps and start Android Auto. It will prompt to install Maps. There you will see those apps also.

Unfortunately nothing seems to work! Had made a reset on my Renault Megane Unit, done all the steps above on my P40 Pro, but i still can't have Android Auto working on the car unit
The systems keeps connecting/disconnecting usb and the smartphone also starting charging mode and stopping.
It is so annoying...keep in mind that my P30 Pro still continues to work well...
Any clue?

Hi guys, only want to share my experience trying to install the google app and google assistant in my Samsung Galaxy Watch 4
1) Download the google app (wear os) on apk mirror
2) active the developer mode in the watch, turn on debug mode and debug on wifi
3) install "Wear installer" on my phone and connect to the watch, from here traspassing and install the google app on the watch
4) the app not show in the launcher, but i can change the predefined assistent app to Google!!! I show you in the pictures added
I have no idea how to make this work, but is promissing!! Maybe somebody read this and can make it, or maybe this almost compatibility mean that the official app is coming in the near futue!
Sorry for my english, im spanish

MOD EDIT: Quote removed since post removed.
That's been talked about before and it's super sketchy. You have to install some random guys app store, give his app tons of permissions, pay him then you get a limited version of Google assistant.
His telegram group have banned people for asking about the security concerns of his apps permissions. Super sketchy
If you install google go apk or other assistant also shows on this menu, but for now seems that only bixby is mapped to home button longpress

Interesting. The video in Spanish isn't terribly helpful, though. I am sure there are others out there. Seems like there would be a simpler way to sideload to the watch, but maybe not. Are you nervous about running some random APK? Good find on the "default app" > assistant. Didn't even notice that until now. How are your "activating" the assistant when you want to use it? Do you have to launch the app each time? Or did you bind it to a button or action on your watch face or something?

Is there also a non-telegram download link somewhere?
It's a gimped version of the assistant....can't play music on Spotify or youtube music, can't use find directions or navigate to commands....when not connected to the phone on bluetooth it struggles to process queries. And most frustrating of all.....screen powers down terminating the request mid way....and setting as default assistant makes no difference, long press still opens up ****sby. Need to remap double tap home to launch app....which takes a while to fire up
Can't wait for Google to release it officially....

Is there an easy way to sideload? What method do you use? Also, is Chrome required for the Assistant, or did you just include that as a bonus?

krogoth, thanks again. I finally went ahead and tried it. Sent the two APK's to my phone with Airdroid. Put watch in developer mode, figured out how to turn on ADB and force wifi on (I had to disconnect bluetooth). Loaded Bugjeager on my phone. Went into developer options on watch to find IP address, connected to it in Bugjeager, finally figured out how to upload an app Bingo- it is on the watch! Binded it to top button double press, turned off ADB, turned off Wifi and BT back on....
It actually works (at least for now). Obviously not designed for round screens. Even has a dialog on the bottom I can't dismiss, since I can't see it. But it can answer questions (what is the time? What is the square root of 13? What is my battery level? etc). When I ask to SEE something like "show me a picture of a cat", nothing appears. I installed Chrome too, to see if it would launch that to show it... it doesn't. I don't think it can show anything due to the lack of space on the screen and no way to navigate (that I can figure out, anyway). Also times out too quickly sometimes.
Anyway, I will play with it some. It might have a lot of issues, but it is a hell of a lot more functional than NOTHING!

Is this still the version where you have to donate to the creator ?
And do you have to give out your Google account to a third party (or creator) ?
Hi! When I'm trying to make a payment with Google Pay (get my watch close to payment terminal), I'm having the error below.
I'm on latest software on my Galaxy Watch 4 LTE (OneUI 4.0/EVA8).
My watch is not rooted or anything like that.
The only thing that I did is sideloading couple of apps (google home, facebook messenger, google assistant) + enabling the modded ECG/Blood Pressure.
Does anyone else have the issue? Is there a way to fix it?

Thats what Im getting after a factory reset. Google says everything is good on their end, Samsung is telling me it's a software issue, and I can send it in for repair. They seemed to be stumped when I asked if it was software (which can be updated via OTA) whats accomplished by sending it in for repair (hardware issue?)
Already sent the error log to Google and Samsung. They said they'll look into it!
