Googlefier - Install GMS on Huawei/Honor

[johnsmith0123]

I think it has been said that if a link is broken it;s just from overuse and it may or may not come back to life if you try again later(?)

I've just successfully got it working, after about 6 tries, couldn't work out what I was doing to break it, and then thought I'd try and do the install with my personal gmail account, and not my work GSuite account. And then it worked. So does that mean I can't use a GSuite account on this?
I'm amazed even the Barclays app installed

Whats the procedure for adding a new account now the Googlefier has completed and removed the earlier steps? Do I install MicroG? Or can I not add any other accounts?

And can I update the phone via OTA updates?

You Can't install MicroG once you install Goolefier.
It's either MicroG or Goolefier.

Can I allow the phone to update via OTA updates? As I have it seemingly all working now, I can do the last option of cleanup can't I? or should I leave it all well alone lol!

Thanks to this app I've been able to finally install the GSM services and the Play Store on my Huawei P40 Lite. I restored my phone to the factory settings, installed and run Googlefier and after that updated EMUI and uninstalled LZplay.
Now everything works like a charm... except for the location services. Every app that requires the GSM location services either fails to open or displays a white page where the map is supposed to show up.
Strangely, Google Maps works fine (even though it randomly crashes for no apparent reason). Is it a known issue? I couldn't find anything on the 90+ pages of this thread

But there is a problem with the address. Please give me the new address?

yup, if all works well press the info button to report it, disable admin access for lzplay, delete googlefier, lzplay and the account manager, then update it

Getting a ton of notifications about the phone not being certified ≠ GMS installation complete/properly

Anyone did it on P40 C432E6R5P2?
Did you used the firmware in the post without any issue?
Are you now getting updates?

 

[prdelkacz]

Hi,

LZ play does not work.

Honor 10X Lite
DNN-LX9
3.1.1.126(C432E1R3P1)
Magic UI: 3.1.1

Cheers

Pretty much, the only time u can add devices is during the installation, afterwhich you cant, unless u redo everything

oh wow, @bender_007 should update his first post about this.
So basically that means any password change, or swapping Google account, or if you somehow got logged out, means a phone wipe (if you've firmware upgraded).
Also, the more you firmware update after everything's gravy, the further you're away from being able to sign in again, since you'll need to downgrade to a googlefier-able version.

I had P40 Pro, ELS-N04, ELS-LGRP4. Upgraded to EMUI 11.
So I was able to downgrade to EMUI 10 by installing HiSuite 11, click upgrade and click the older version.
That took me to a EMUI10 .148.
Then I used the proxy with HiSuite 10:

http://update.dbankcdn.com/TDS/data/files/p3/s15/G5633/g1604/v414320/f1/full/changelog_base.xml

ELS-LGRP4-OVS 10.1.0.131
This downgraded to .131 (it did indicate bad partition, which the corresponding system wipe action fixes it, scared me).
Then Googlefier works.

Guess, I'll stick with a version that works with Googlefier, and never system update again.
Then I just need to press that wipe button in Googlefier and start the process from scratch, whenever I need to change Google account stuff.

I'll need to test how well this whole process works a few times before I pass this phone to my wife, since it won't be a simple sign in.

Yes it's Not ideal and there is no work around. I don't know why people don't read post. It's there.
You can't change passwords. Everything you need to do is also there

Not properly. If done properly, you wouldn't getbthe notifications.

Yup, can confirm that. After running through the steps several times and again and again. Eventually everything falls into place and everything's signed in and no notifications.
lol, still can't figure out what step did I miss or didn't do properly.
But just keep backtracking and clearing and redoing, and eventually it'll all work haha.

Downgrade Help






Downgrade via usb/sd


You NEED USB-OTG -> see the picture

Prerequisites



Where can I find the firmware?

Method 1








Note: If method 1 doesn't work, try method 2.

For troubleshooting – see the troubleshooting section

Method 2

you need HiSuite 10.0.0.510 (find it and download, install it)
1. -Open your dialer inside android
-type *#*#2846579#*#*
-tap on 2. "Veneer Informations"
-tap on 1. "Version Info"
-scroll down to "Base Software Version"
-You will see something like "JNY-LGRP2-OVS 10.0.1.108"
-Just ignore everything after LGRP2, means you need the "JNY-LGRP2" only
-Type "JNY-LGRP2" or any string you find in that info - into textbox from step 1(in the hisuite proxy) and press step 1

2. Find a suitable firmware, check that it's "FullOTA-MF" and not just OTA-MF, copy the url link next to the date, paste it into the "package url" inside the hisuite proxy
3. Copy the text which is next to the date, on the webpage - paste it to the "firmware version" inside the hisuite proxy
4. Press "Start proxy", connect the phone, authorize with HDB (you should know how to do that)
5. press update in HiSuite - It will download the older firmware and install it

Here is the image of how the procedure looks like: CLICK

Hi Guys for those has a units of P40 pro only.

2. you need the version of EMUI 10 at last digit of 10.1.0.182 (uninstall the HiSuite after downgrade)
3. you need the version of EMUI 10 at last digit of 10.1.0.176 (using HiSuite ver. 10.0.0.510)
4. you need the version of EMUI 10 at last digit of 10.1.0.131 (now LzPlay will now works)

Hello
I would like to downgrade my Huawei p smart 2021
Currently:
PPA-LX2
10.1.1.135 (C432E4R2P1)
I CAN'T FIND A FIRMWARE
CAN YOU HELP ME ?
THANK YOU

According to what @bender_007 says we need a firmware downgrade, to 10.1.125 maximum, to install googlefier, the problem is that our P Smart 2021 phones need this firmware- PPAH-LGRP2 which is not found yet.
Even if the phone model is PPA-LX2 build number 10.1.1.135 (C432E4R4P1) or 10.1.1.145 (C432E4R4P1), the real firmware is PPAH-LGRP2, and PPA-LX2 firmware doesn`t work on our, phone.
I try to fiind 10.1.1.125 or an older version, i have not found nothing.
Maybe someone help us.

It's a new model after Google ban so even if you downgrade. You will not be able to install Google.

MicroG is the only way IMHO

Hello. Thank you for all your work on this workaround.
I have read all five posts and am trying to follow the process, but couldn't get the firmware downgrade to work. I have a P40 Lite JNY-LX1 running EMUI 10.1.0.261 (C432E1R6P1).

I could not find a more specific version, so I tried download the first firmware in your post, the one labelled:
P40 Lite
JNY-LX1
10.0.1.111(C432*****)

but when clicking Update mode, it starts the update (shows 5% for a very long time), but then reboots (never showing anything other than 5%) and the phone is unchanged (EMUI version stays the same, no wiping was done).

Did I use the wrong firmware?

You have to use Method 2 which should work on all Phones. You will need PC
