I somehow still can't make it work, I hate how complicated this has to beI feel your pain. I nearly snapped my phone in two of pure frustration. So THIS is how I got my phone back to working :
I use Googlefier to the point where it uninstalls and reinstalls Google Play Services and the errors start. THEN I close it and follow the method this (https://phandroid.com/2020/06/01/how-to-install-google-play-store-huawei-p40-pro/) article from the point where they mention how to remove the errors. The link for DEVICE ID is useless so Google "Device ID Apk". You basically just use the app to see whether the certificate gets removed and put back..
Something extra I did was do the constant Force Close and Delete Data of the Google Service Framework until it was stopped instead of just clearing data as explained in the article.
Googlefier is basically an update of that article but that part of repeatedly opening and closing the play store and installing apps is bull****. And DON'T delete the Services framework like in that Fonetech video. That's why the play store never opens in the end...
If you are error free, you can upgrade your Google play services to 21.21.16.
(make sure Automatic App updates are turned off in the Play store otherwise your Play services will update and you get errors again). If it happens, force close and uninstall it and install 21.21.16 again. And don't ever delete data on the Play Store again because it will turn on automatic updates again
Hope this helps more people.
PS : I updated the firmware to 11.0.0.181. I think the Android security patches in v223 has something to do with the breakdown on the 11th of October, but I stand corrected
I wish I could help you more, but this is a messy hack! I think something important in that article is the many times you have to "Clear The Background Running Apps".I somehow still can't make it work, I hate how complicated this has to be
I'm running the latest play store and GMS 21.21.16. Just turn off the Play Protect and auto update. Maybe turn off data so that you can make sure it's off before it updates... It should be fine.Hi there.i have successfully installed everything and it works fine with working notifications. However i noticed i have a backdated Google Playstore version which is 3 version back from the current one. My question is if i download the latest Google Playstore apk and manually install over the current one will it break my GMS? Afraid that it will break and will come out with Play Protect error or will break my notification. The problem is that it does not auto update the Playstore itself as it should be normally. Thanks in advance .
Thanks mate.I'm running the latest play store and GMS 21.21.16. Just turn off the Play Protect and auto update. Maybe turn off data so that you can make sure it's off before it updates... It should be fine.
Try reboot the phone after few times clicking on the "TRY AGAIN" at the DF error in the Playstore and once reboot open up Playstore again and click on "TRY AGAIN" few times. If you can see your profile picture on the right top meaning you have the chance to make the Playstore load soon but if it does not,reboot the phone once more and repeat the step. If still occur after the 3rd time of rebooting redo back from start back. I encounter this lots of time with mine and solution is just reboot the phone after clicking lots of time at the "TRY AGAIN". Hope you fix that mate.Hello,
I tried to install google apps on my Huawei P40 Lite but I am stuck after many unsuccessful attemps.
I followed this video but I get stuck here:
I get error DF-DFERH-01 when open Google Play Store instead of having it working correctly, as shown in the video.
Details:
HUAWEI P40 lite
MODEL JNY-LX1
Build number 10.0.1.136 (C432E2R2P1) -> downgraded viaEMUI version 10.0.1
Any help?
I tried the Googlefier procedure many many times, factory reset the phone, tried again and again and again... no luck!
Thank you very much.

You have the last gms services? No play protect error? How?I'm running the latest play store and GMS 21.21.16. Just turn off the Play Protect and auto update. Maybe turn off data so that you can make sure it's off before it updates... It should be fine.
Play Store, not GMS
Hey I faced the same error if you stuck there try to end all steps in googlefier if The error message still popup , use the cleaner button in the app and before you press first step go back to the chinesse app and re enable it again ( that fixed the playstore DF error )Hello,
I tried to install google apps on my Huawei P40 Lite but I am stuck after many unsuccessful attemps.
This is absolutely FALSE. System updates do not break GMS, not even the october patch.Hey guys I heared the october security Update Break GMS is it true
Is it safe to keep updating the emui ?
I have NOVA 7I , JNY-L21
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?
