Googlefier - Install GMS on Huawei/Honor

[TheNormalOne]

I wrote this for another forum and thought it might be of use to some here. Especially those with a Matepad Pro:

Ok all,

You can learn from my mistakes and lost evening * * I know have Google installed on my new Matepad Pro and here is what I did...

1. When you set up the device disable automatic updates
2. Go in to settings/About Tablet and check you are on 10.0.1.177 (Matepad Pro purchased in the UK 2nd November)
3. Now go to System & Updates - Software Update and if you are offered an update to 10.1.0.120 (Matepad Pro only) INSTALL THIS UPDATE (Not crucial for installing GMS but it is the newest firmware that I think will work. The next version upgrade I am being offered is to 10.1.0.180 DO NOT install this version)
4. Open this Youtube video on a laptop etc so you can pause as you go through the installation: https://youtu.be/iWG-9nXfvkA
5. Go HERE and scroll down to the large red DOWNLOAD link (https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/googlefier-install-gms-huawei-honor-t4180485)
6. In conjunction with the video above go through the motions to use Googlefier to install GMS on your device.

Some IMPORTANT points to note:
- Don't worry about the annoying pop ups. They will stop later in the process
- When testing Play store (as you will be asked to do) install any apps. When the whole process is finished these apps WILL NOT show in your list of installed apps so will need to be deleted (long press the icon and select Uninstall) and re-installed to show in the list of installed apps - unless you aren't fussed about them showing in their. I would imagine updates will still show in the "Updates" list within Play Store
- Follow the above video through to the end as it makes you go through a fix process which stops the notification alerts that will annoy you throughout the install.

After installation you can do two things...
1. DONATE to bender007 through the Googlefier app. He has allowed me to have an iPad Pro killer device at a third of the price and overcome the Trump Bull**** Ban - Well worth a donation so he can go buy a couple pints as thanks
2. Uninstall Googlefier (I can't see a way to uninstall the LZPlay app (with the chinese text) so will update this if I figure it out

Go setting-Apps-Apps-Search for LZ play to uninstall it.

Just an update that I have succeeded installing play store, but apps that require Google login don't work - eg Gmail. Also, the play protect notification keeps popping up.

Also the OTA doesn't show new updates even though I'm on 131.

Any advice pls?

Most of the problem solved after step 3. You need to repeat step 3 and try fix notification. And must follow what screen instruction tells you. Try and try that's all. No doubt Googlefier will definitely solve your problem.

Hi All,

i have a huawei p40 lite, with android 10.1.0.236, emui 10.1.0
i followed all steps, and when trying the google play, it just opens and then automatically closes. i cannot open it at all to try or download anything.

anyone else with the same behavior? what to do in this case?

Hello, that's very weird, you followed all the steps, read the instructions and it doesn't work?

---------------------

3. How do I know if it work on my device?
-You don’t. You need to try it. IF lzplay runs on the device then it will 99% work. However there is a list where you can see some firmware versions on which it’s reported to be working.

post 5
3. I've done everything the video said, everything that the message boxes asked me to do, I can't open playstore
-That's because you didn't do everything the video or the message boxes said. The reason why playstore doesn't work is you didn't run LZplay(chinese app) or LZplay just closed on you when you tried to open it. You need to run it, grant the permissions and tap on the bottom button, then press home.

4. LZplay just closes on me.. wtf?
-Your firmware version is too new - check POST #3 and then POST #4 . But make sure you do a backup first (Please don't ask how to do backup, there is Hisuite, you can export the contacts to vcf, you can copy the pictures, etc)
P.S. If LZplay closes you can also see Playstore not working. So you know = you have to downgrade
I get this message

5. Google Play Store just crashes, what happened? I've done the login procedure
-Downgrade your firmware.

6. I can see Google plays services on my screen
-Downgrade your firmware.

Hm, very weird that after reading the posts 1-4 you still have done everything right - this of course was sarcastic, don't get offended (I should get offended by people not reading but..it's life )

If you don't find what you seek for in this few quoted (already answered things, please ask another one)

ok, now all the logins work and no more prompt, but the OTA definitely doesn't work. Have also tried different versions of HiSuite (10 & 11)

Hi,
tu as de la chance je parle français et je passe par là. Je te conseille de lire la première page ou au pire d'utilisé Google traduction. Car cette première page est vraiment complète et tout y est expliquer il faut juste prendre le tmps de la lire car j'ai moi aussi rencontré un probleme avec un autre divice.

Mais je vais de donner des piste de recherche, ton firmware est certainement sortie avant de 15 juin 2020 donc non compatible, il faut alors que tu télécharge un Firmware corespondant à ton téléphone et l'installer à l'aide du menu recoveny ( bouton power + Volume UP) au démarrage du téléphone.

Bonne chance et bon courage.

Hello
After having installed all gms is it possible to upgrade emui?
Everything will stay ok after all upgrades even with emui 11 on p40 pro?

I think you can upgrade even to 11, yes. But what Will happen in the future is unsure. Maybe also some anti-rollback in firmware etc

You said that if "your device was released april+ it won't work". You mean the device itself (like, motherboard in my cease) or just the specific model release? Because I stopped reading after this and asked my question.

hello

merci encore ,oui je vais essayer avec Hisuite

merci

The device itself of course.

What you now need to do is:

1. check your device codename (els-nx9, ana... etc)
2. check your firmware version
3. either check when it's released (and see if it's before 15.6.2020) OR here (it's not accurate do to the weakest part of every chain (human factor))
4. check if restoration works, if the purple app works, if not - downgrade


That said, you can be sure it will work for you - at least once you downgrade

It doesn't work without downgrade, that Chinese app is closing.
PS.
My firmware version is C432E8R6P1. Does that R6 matter? These links you provided are all either 4 or 5.

Just use the C432, it will work. If the method however doesn't work (stuck on 5%), try hisuite downgrade
