Thanks, i will try your method.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

There is no point in upgading untill you have it right. Most likely you have not followerd the instruction. Keep trying untill Google install.Hello, i have P40 pro, ELS-NX9, with firmware 10.1.0.121. Tried everything, did procedure 10 time, so i sure very step was correct, but i have notification like This device isn`t Plat Protect certified. Is the firmware ok? or should i install 10.1.0.131? Most of the apps works, i can live with this but i am affraid to upgrade. If someone can point me to a link for download 10.1.0.131 or some other ideas i would be thankfull.
thanks for your work - I've stuck $5 of appreciation in your account
p40 pro downgraded from 11.0.0.151 to 10.0.0.121, googlefied, and back again. It's worth noting that 2 versions of hi-suite are needed.
I use 10 different Google accounts so I am impressed.
Everything works except Gmail notifications.
cheers
But the firmware is ok? Or should i search for 131?There is no point in upgading untill you have it right. Most likely you have not followerd the instruction. Keep trying untill Google install.
just install googlefier in my 10.1.0.109 flawlessly ,there still offer to upgrade the firmware, what should i do? update it now?I think it will work for you to googlefy it, but I'm not sure if you will receive Updates.
So when i got everything goes well, no notification bomb, ect its is time to upgrade the firmware right?There is no point in upgading untill you have it right. Most likely you have not followerd the instruction. Keep trying untill Google install.
U must be miss in some point, r u read the instructions carefully before u do something? Not every installed apk need to stop and uninstall, 1 of them need to stop and clear data + cache onlyHello, i have P40 pro, ELS-NX9, with firmware 10.1.0.121.

No you should not update your firmware. It needs to be old version if you want google to workSo when i got everything goes well, no notification bomb, ect its is time to upgrade the firmware right?

I also encourage all of the members to keep the "alternative downgrade methods" to some other threads, which I will for sure link later. Also please don't spam with firmware links, rather PM me and I will add it to POST #4, let's try to keep the thread clean. As time goes by, I'll try to add more firmware and cover more of the Q/A and Troubleshooting POST/Section so everyone can help himself / herself by simple power of reading
I'm confused, what do I download?
-Check your emui version, the important data is:
1. device name
-example ANA-NX9
2. version
-example C432 or C185 - just download the one for your device
1. Check your firmware version(emui)
2. Check the stats about the max supported version for Googlefier/Lzplay
3. Download the firmware which is supported
4. Make backup…
-All of the firmware version that are in the download post I’ve downloaded from easy-firmware, yes I’ve paid 17$ to be able to download firmware for people, but you are welcome to get your firmware from a source which you prefer, please don’t pollute the thread with the firmware download links, there should be a separate thread for that
0. Make backup..seriously, this will wipe your partitions and reflash them(your files will be gone)
1. Download your firmware
2. In case it’s from my uploads you just extract the “dload” folder to your usb/sd
3. Turn off your phone
4. Hold volume up and power, until you see the recovery (or. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztobeBHh4Fk if your phone doesn’t have volume keys)
5. Select upgrade "Memory card / OTG update mode" and that’s it, it will first verify the firmware and flash
Note:
IF method 1 doesn't work for you (stuck at 5%), try finding the firmware somewhere else, or do what I do
1. find some service where you can download firmware (I use easy-firmware)
2. pay 17$
3. find your firmware, download it, extract using that weird ef extractor
<- this is exactly what I do all the day when you ask me to upload you firmware
What to check?
1. device name
-example ANA-NX9
2. version
-example C432 or C185 - just download the one for your device
OR - try method 2 with hisuite
Note 2
You might be able to download the firmware using the free service here ,
but this is something for the "method 2" for now. I will work on it to try to use the very same firmware you can download from there so you can use it with your SD or USB.
Not promising anything, but I think it's doable - I just don't have a device ATM and I don't want to bother anyone risking a device
1. What devices are supported?
- Currently Huawei / Honor devices running Android 10 and Emui10. There are limitations based on firmware versions.
2. Does it use LZplay(Chinese app)?
-Yes it does. You can uninstall it after the installation is done.
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.
4. I don’t have LZplay and it still worked, how?
-At some point, on previous firmware version – your phone had LZplay running and/or someone tried the GMS installation method. (yes, even after resetting..yes weird..)
5. Do firebase push notifications work?
-No they don’t, some apps will have their notifications pushed through, most of them wont.
6. I'm getting notifications, a lot of them, what do I do?
-Hit the fix button and follow the instructions.
7. I've hit the FIX button, but it doesn't fix a thing. Why do you lie to us?
-The fix button is there to assist you in fixing your own errors , you didn't follow the procedure.
-After you hit "fix", just read the instructions.
-After EVERY single services install do this:
*Open playstore, browse it, close playstore and all running apps from the recents menu
*Open sync settings, uncheck-and re-check the sync on/off settings
*Open playstore - install 2-3 apps, games...close playstore and all running apps from the recents menu
*Proceed with button 3, just like the message box instructs (until it says everything is done)
*still getting errors? Repeat..
8. Does APP {insert name here} which depends on google location services/play services/games work?
-Most probably it does, even apps like tapatalk work with the google sign in
9. Is factory reset mandatory?
-No, there is a button to make sure your previous experimenting is deleted
10. Will this damage/delete my data?
-No, this doesn’t touch your data. Although a factory reset is recommended if you want to do it right. Some people use different google replacements, aurora store, microg…etc..they mostly don’t play nicely together, there is just no guarantee it will work. A clean device will set a baseline for the installation.
11. Some advice on the procedure?
-always read the message boxes – they are NOT just for your amusement there, it’s very easy to miss something
-before doing anything – do a backup
-don’t give up on the first try
-don’t assume the next step – there are message boxes (already told that, but..)
-always first read the questions, then the troubleshooting – before asking a question
12. Ok, so I successfully installed the GMS, everything works. Can I update the Apps, upgrade the system, delete Googlefier, delete LZplay, delete Google Account Manager?
-Of course, the answer to all is YES. After the successful installation you can report the success-or a failure, just tap on “?”, it will lead you to the “YES it works”, “NO it doesn’t work” chooser. And of course, there is the donate button, which is appreciated and welcome, since a lot..lot of time is invested into this, and still being invested through the support and further investigation.
I personally have used this services to update
13. Will this work on my device, version 154? or Will this work on my device, version XXX ?
-Yes and No. There are multiple factors. Depends if lzplay was at some time installed on this device - no matter what version it was on. If it was installed at for example version 106 and you made a FR, then YES you can still install even if on 154 or more recent. There is however a list of the devices that works by default and some that users report it works on.
15. It doesn't work...
-Ok, let's try fixing it. I see some Honor users just hit the "doesn't work" button. There is still downgrade, let's look up the firmware and test it. If I could spend 2-2.5 months investigating this and then again downloading all the firmware files, extracting them, repacking and uploading them, I guess 1-2 minutes of your time isn't too much to ask?
