I just received my Huawei Honor 8x Max. It came from China as it's the newer version having 6gb ram & Snapdragon 660...

The operating system seems unstable and despite Google Store being installed it does not work.

When attempting to open it, immediately closes to home screen. Several more attempts & then it says crashed and prompts me to delete it...

Tried clearing data/cache, still not working.

Uninstalled Google Play store still no difference.

Any ideas??

To install Google play on this phone. You need to download gsminstaller.apk. But the phone block you from installing it. First enable developer option. Go to enable usb debugging. Disable monitor apps install by adb.

apkinstaller .c om
Install and run this. Connect your computer to your phone. Install gsminstaller.apk using apkinstaller. After that install Google installer 2.o apk on your phone. Run it.. u should have Google play installed.

All the file can by downloaded by googling it. Sorry it take too long to go step by step detail.

I used adb to try and install gsminstaller.apk from the pc and the phone shows me the same screen blocking the install, saying I should open appgallery to download a safe/compatible version of this app. but this app was removed from the appgallery by huawei...

THE SOLUTION: Go to developer options in the phone and enable app installs without asking for permission.
This will wipe all google apps, but its the only solution that works.

Remember to re-install the old 4.4.4 google contacts sync because I think that gets wiped too.

I hate updates i knew it would ruin my brand new phone... **** you honor, stop ruining our phones. First you make people pay for root, now thins.
Im not updating again.

Any solution for getting G services and apps to work after EMUI 9 update? I can install all services with GMSanzhuangji.apk and Gmsinstaller 3, but still no luck on running them... Play Store keeps force closing and cannot add a google account for the contacts and all other sync services

You have to install gsminstaller.apk using adb on a computer
