any idea how to disable auto update google play services? I have disabled the auto update app on google play store, but play service always updating to 23.17.xx


Hello,

I am also interested in your answer.
My phone desperately wants to update GPServices to 23.17.xx.

Usually, when this happens, I delete all the Google services data. Then I uninstall and reinstall version 21.24.57.
And when version 23.17.xx came back, I started again.

This solution worked for a few days.
But since yesterday, the update to 23.17.xx is immediate...

Thanks for your help!

Hi, I have a ELS-NX9 P40 Pro (region c636) with EMUI12. I have followed very carefully by the steps and guide provided in this thread and successfully downgraded to 11.0.0.249. However, I am not able to further downgrade to EMUI 10 regardless of any version available in HuaweiFirmFinder. The method I used to downgrade from EMUI11 to EMUI 10 is the one in thread #106.

I do not get any error message in HiSuite, but I do get alert message in HiSuiteProxy everytime after download phase and at the beginning of install phase(see attached). Nonetheless, the installation will successfully get through. When phone reboots, it will start installing progress and stop at 5% and says 'Software install failed'(see attached).

I hope someone can shed some light on this. Much aprreciated.

Current info:
Base Software Version: ELS-LGRP4-OVS 11.0.0.249
Cust Software Version: ELS-N29-CUST 11.0.0.3(C636)
Preload Software Version: ELS-N29-PRELOAD 11.0.0.3(C636R4)

Downgrade version I have tried but unsuccessful
Base Software Version: ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.109 until 10.1.0.182
Cust Software Version: ELS-N29-CUST 10.1.0.7(C636)
Preload Software Version: ELS-N29-PRELOAD 10.1.0.1(C636R4)

You better upgrade back to 12 and downgrade via HiSUite to another 11.0.0. between 200-230. After that continue with those steps. From 249 you cannot downgrade. Even in this case you can get errors, but we will see.


The best solution for you is to:
1. Write on NM card a 10.1 desired dload firmware (134???)
2. From EMUI12 use v2 (downgrade tab) and downgrade to an available EMUi10.1
3. From that EMUI10.1 downgrade with NM card+dload firmware to 10.1.0.134

@badmania98, I tried downgrading a friend's p40 pro from 11.0.0.230 to 10.1.0.121 using your guide. However, I get this error during downgrade firmware installation and phone firmware installation stops at 4%
can you help me out?
Hi, were you able to solve the problem? I have the same problem on my P40 PRO C432, from EMUI 12 I managed to go down to EMUI 11 230 like you, following the guide of badmania98 and mattwhite7102, which are almost identical, but nothing, it gives me the same error you showed right after the download reaches 100 on Hisuite.

P40 Pro C432:
Last time I used NM card with dload firmware 10.1.0.121 on it, copied when I had USB connection (EMUI11.0.0.2xx to EMUI12).
I downgraded first with HiSuite Proxy to 10.1.0.176 from EMUI12 then with dload on NM card to 10.1.0.121.

If you dont have a NM card you can try to use dload firmware with USB OTG+pen drive. It could work.

I don't know exactly what have you done there. Right now I am trying to reproduce your error on my phone to see on real how can be solved. But it will take a few hours. In my opinion your phone is an excelent one but you don't use it with the best solutions. Find me on Telegram and I can explain you more. I have same username.

    OP everything on #3 is outdated and does not work on EMUI10.1.0.131 when trying to update to the latest firmware.

    You have to install Hisuite 10.0.0.510 CN version and hisuite 2.4.0.0 and the Hisuite.apk (this is NOT the normal hisuite it is compatible only with the CN version) on your phone by email or something because the USB will not work thankfully I had the NM card so it makes things easier.

    Once that is all done, then setup hisuite proxy and go on https://professorjtj.github.io/Downgrade/ page and for your phone find the version 10.1.0.176 then choosing the correct preload for your phone.

    It works wirelessly and surprisingly OTA starts to show after .176 has been installed. That way you can successfully upgrade back to the latest version.

    Your post is correct up until #2 then #3 is wrong for 09/2023 and people will waste time. I suggest you update it... :) Thanks @badmania, @Ghost18_07

    I disagree. My previous message (before your message): See ”Especially 1st point of UPGRADE message, ON THE FIRST PAGE OF THE THREAD. There is a link to other message. On that message, on written part you have all info.
    Hey man, just want to thank you for the guide and @Ghost18_07 for pointing out the APK within the HiSuite files on PC, I totally missed that too. I updated it to 10.0.1.399 and then updated to EMUI 12 via OTA.

    True, i didn't know how i missed that part of the APK file from the folder of Hisuite, that's the key for everything haha, i feel ashemed about that, sorry bro, now i found the phone and it's loading the update .

    Btw, the version of the Hisuite i use here is from official website but for the chinese version.

    Hello!

    Because I answered to the same questions on different threads, I decided to create this thread, where I will provide my experience to you, in one place.

    The followings messages (2-7) contain all major info and tutorials links from this thread.

    All solutions/tutorials are related to the EMUI version that is installed on your phone. Before you start using this phone and upgrade/downgrade the firmware, I suggest you to read this message and after that you can continue reading the thread.


    I am waiting for your questions. I hope that I can help. I will not answer again if I already answered and you haven't read first 7 messages of this thread. I don't like people who are more lazy than I am. :devilish:

    My Phone: P40 Pro C432 EMUI12, push notification fix installed.

    Best regards,
    Daniel

    LE: My support on XDA is free of charge. I will provide/mention free solutions. If you find something interesting on my messages you can provide a Like.
    On PM/Telegram I could provide different solutions that could be not free of charge.

    IF YOU HAVE GMS ERRORS
    DO NOT RESET THE PHONE TO FACTORY SETTINGS AND DO NOT MAKE EMUI DOWNGRADE

    !!!! 20230520: ALL DOWNGRADES FOR ALL DEVICES/REGIONS ARE UP SIDE DOWN DUE TO HUAWEI PROTECTION MEASURES. IT IS DIFFICULT TO MANAGE THE SITUATION NOW. FOR SOME DEVICES I HAVE A SOLUTION, BUT I DONT KNOW HOW MUCH TIME IT WILL WORK.

    On chapter ”Solutions before May 2023” are few details/apps/info that could help or just for your information.

    For P40 Pro C432 you can use this solution:

    For other regions you try to use the same procedure with your region files version.



    _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
    Solutions before Before May 2023:

    The following procedures could not work anymore:

    0. 20220315: Downgrade from EMUI12 is working with HiSuite 11.0.0.610 or newer.

    For P40 Pro C432, to downgrade ( do not skip point 3):

    a. from stable EMUI12 12.0.0.218/228 to EMUI11 11.0.0.260 ( P40Pro C432), use the newest original version of HiSuite. At this moment is HiSuite_11.0.0.610_OVE. No proxy has been used.

    b. from ELS-LGRP4-OVS 11.0.0.260 to EMUI11 11.0.0.230 ( P40Pro C432) you can downgrade using the solution described here.


    1. How to solve wrong downgrade+fix USB connection to computer (P40Pro+ firmware on P40 Pro / N39 on N29)
    Here is my guide: - here.

    <11.0.0.260 to EMUI10.1.121 131( P40Pro C432) EMUI downgrade tutorial - one step : here The procedure is the same for all Huawei phones and regions. You have to use the specific files for every region and phone type. Ask on thread if you dont know what files you need.

    4. Firmware Downgrade with HiSuite proxy and Offline Packages: here (AVOID IT).

    5. HOW TO flash
    DLOAD FW guide: here . Don't use DLOAD firmware to downgrade between major EMUI version (ex: from EMUI11 to EMUI10). It is used to downgrade between firmware from the same major EMUI version (Ex: from 10.1.0.176 to 10.1.0.131).

    6. The transfer files between Computer and phone is available on the downgraded firmware (10.1.x.x) when you use a certain USB-c to USB-c cable. In this case a UGREEN, US355, USB-C To USB-C, 3.1, Gen.2, PD, 5A, 100W, 4K, 10 Gbps cable has been used. In the same time, using the original USB cable or other ordinary USB-c to USB-C cable have not activated the file transfer.
    Harmony TP cable works also, in case your computer/laptop doesn't have USB-C port. You can build/make one (search the procedure on YouTube).

    Google Suite Install/Errors etc. ( Play store, Google Play Services, Google Account, etc.)

    IF YOU HAVE GMS ERRORS
    DO NOT RESET THE PHONE TO FACTORY SETTINGS AND DO NOT MAKE EMUI DOWNGRADE

    1. Play store error
    a. It can be opened but cannot be used

    If you receive just this message try Clear Cache of Google Play Store + Force stop, then start Store again. Do not clear data.

    Screenshot_20211013_113641_com.android.vending.jpg

    b. 20211113 Errors: If the previous doesn't work try this (read below first).
    1. V1 - EloYGomeZTv
    2. V2 - Renz Dagz TV ,
    3. V3 -System Hacks
    4. V4 - GSM Fix/ ictfix

    Many phones with GMS installed have now ( since 20211113) that error message when you open Google Apps. Many of you think that a downgrade of EMUI and a reinstall of GMS is needed. No EMUI downgrade is needed. In previous links (V1-V4) you will find 4 solutions to have a GMS working. Unfortunately they use old versions of Google Play Services. The newest version is used in V1. Some apps (Android Auto, etc.) will need a newer versions of Google Play Services than those presented in tutorials. I tried different solutions and files and I have to say that the last version of working Play Services is:
    - for MateXS: 21.15.13
    - other phones: 21.24.56
    Using a newer version will get the error.
    Also a simple clear data/force stop/update or other changes made on Google Play Services file could get future errors.

    c. The fix A.3 from here solves all this problems and solves also many incompatibilities.
    My phone has not been affected: Demo

    2. Change/add Google account/password after GMS install - files in description: Tutorial - EloYGomeZTv

    3. Googlefier on 2022 - solve step 1 error : here.

    4. I used this my own method to install GMS. It is not public released.
    You can use any other method. YouTube is full of them. One of them is Googlefier.

    5. A new alternative to install GMS here.. In video it is used on HarmonyOS 2.0 phone, but I think it might work on EMUI10 (that allows GMS install) too. It seems to be more simple than Googlefier and it has fixed also te year 2022 bug of Googlefier.

    Hello everyone,

    I want to share my experience here.

    I posted earlier a problem on xda "Can't downgrade P40 Pro ELS-N29 C432 from 11.0.0.260 to 10.1.0.131"

    I tired many solution for several days and nothing worked!
    Then I contacted badmania98 and he gave me the right and only solution to downgrade my P40 Pro from 11.0.0.260 to EMUI 10.
    He provided me with the corresponding links and gave me a step by step procedure, shown in pictures that are highlighted by numbers..
    " 1. Press this 2. insert that 3. etc... " and then he doubled check my work before I proceeded in Hisuite Proxy to make sure that the filled info about base, Cust, Preload and the software are 100% accurate.
    I was able to downgrade my P40 Pro to EMUI 10 😁

    Now here's the best part: He gave a private service and installed GSM on my phone using TeamViewer. He used his own files to install GSM on my phone... This service allowed me to have Google Push notifications working on my phone without disabling the Google Play Store 😁
    Google service is working, maps, push notifications, everything related to Google is working now as if this phone originally had Google Pre-Installed in it 😁

    It was a great service!

    Thank you so much
