Honor 8X Max "This app may harm your operating system. Installation is not advised" ?

Hi all,

While installing a downloaded apk (happens to be the Google Services) onto my Chinese sourced Honor 8X Max, I get a message in red that states "This app may harm your operating system. Installation is not advised." I cannot find anyway to move past/ignore this 'warning' as there are only 'Cancel' and 'Search in App Gallery' buttons presented.

Anyone seen this? Any workarounds please?

Cheers!

What is the name of the application that you can not install? I will check this app on my phone.

I guess GMSinstaller.apk. I have the same issue.

Thanks,
Howie

You need to download and install GMSinstaller.apk
