Whenever I open the BT Sport app, I get a message telling me to "Update Google Play services BT Sport won't run unless you update Google Play services". When I click on update, it opens Google Play services on the Play store but there's no update available. Anyone else having this problem?
When using Google Chrome, I occasionally see the message to sign in but I'm already logged in! If I click on the sign in message, it takes me to the usual Google log in screen and when I enter my username, it tells me that I'm already logged in. Does this happen to anyone else?
I ordered the handset directly from the Huawei/Honor on Wednesday afternoon and received it on Friday, can't fault the service. Using the advertised £30 discount code, I paid £369 for the handset and the Bluetooth earphones.
Today I received update COL-L29 8.1.0.104 (C432). It weighed in at 246MB and I performed a factory reset but I'm still experiencing the issues I mentioned above.
Other than that, it's a snappy phone and quite compact. I feel the camera is better than the Nokia 7 plus that it's replacing but not quite on par with my Samsung Note 8.

Does anyone know of another source to purchase and download CoPilot besides the Market. That is one of the few apps that my Gpad with Vagan 5.1 cannot find.
Copilot
I'm having the same difficulties. Anyone know an answer?
Ed Kinsel
Try ALK Technologies website, I'm using it with my gpad,Tomtom reciever and it works great.
Have a friend buy it on their phone...
I had my friend buy it on his Droid X and then just copy the APK over to my G-Pad and installed it. Worked fine.
I have CoPilot Line USA installed on my gTab. But when i launch the app i get "Your Device ID (IMEI) is invalid."
Any ideas on how to fix this ?

I have the same issue. Latest update on the market did it. Support says they will have a fix early next week.
I'd like the earlier version in the meantime also. It also has bugs, but I could work around them.

How do we activate this or purchase?
You have to purchase it on the market. The new file they have isn't working properly. This is the previous version. So go to the market and purchase it. Then delete the downloaded file (the one you purchased) and replace it with this one. Allegdegdly there will be a fix sometime next week. I wouldn't hold my breath.

Thank you. That got me up and running again.
My guess is that they were trying to strengthen their licensing, and forgot that a lot of tablets don't have phones in them. Thus the tablets don't have the file the new version was looking for. The version you uploaded has a bug that sometimes asks for your license number in the middle of getting location information, but you can back out and work around that bug.
Jon
Its asking me for a 15 digit order number....my Google checkout receipt has a very long number....not 15 digits. How are u guys getting around this?
Once you purchase the app, they will send you a license key. It can take a few days to get this and in the mean time you get a cryptic message. Be patient.
Good afternoon
Firstly I purchased my device through o2 which is a phone company in the UK. I though since my phone is a nexus phone my phone would automatically qualify for updates from Google without the network testing then before release. How wrong was I.
I just spoke with someone from o2 who confirmed that the software is being tested before realise meaning the carrier has control of the updates and they are not coming straight from Google. Screens below
I'm guessing this will be the same for any phone purchased through a carrier in the UK. Guess il be flashing a stock from later
I don't bother waiting for ota, get to the factory image Google webpage and download them. I have only ever taken a handful of ota updates on my nexus and always tend to fast boot the new imgs. That way you are in control of your own updates from google

Just an unlocked bootloader. You can relock it after installing the update.

I just think he does not know what he is talking about. It's really annoying how misinformed people are in call centres etc...
Since all phones are bloatwared by o2 he does not realise that Nexus is different.
I highly doubt o2 is testing software for nexuses. I think we would have different biuld numbers in first place.
Well, I got mine from CPW on EE and didn't have any ota yet but as I said its hard for me to believe that it has anything to do with EE.

Never listen to live chat agents they haven't a clue what they're talking about GSM Carriers have no say or word on Nexus devices. If carriers had control over updates for your device they'd add their bloatware and company splash screen like they usually do.

I didn't get an update when I setup the phone with my VZW sim. I did get the update when I left it out and setup via WiFi.
I too would have thought that the live chat person is just saying the normal stuff about phone updates as if we had a Samsung phone for example and does not realise the difference in Nexus updates. But the fact there has been updates published and every time I check system update it says I am up to date I am starting to get suspicious that something is going on.

first up, take out the sim (or put into airplane) and then try it on wifi only (as someone said above worked for them). Second, you asked if it was being tested by Google rather than by O2 (pic 2).... the rep was actually right(!) in that it's not being tested by O2.

It's Googles stupid POS Staged Rollout system that everyone on Android uses that's the cause here. why they need a staged rollout for security updates boggles me.
What are the differences between the various 6P images on the google factory image site? Not sure which one to flash.
Total BS. Updates for Nexus come from Google and only Google.
As a couple of others have said, screw the OTA and just fastboot the Google factory images.
That way you get the update as soon as Google up it

Looks like I'll be doing some flashing then....
I decided to have another go and I got a completely different answer which to me makes more sense. The adviser basicly says that google are staggering the update in case of bugs. Full conversation is attached below.
I already skipped ahead and installed the latest update using the dev website as I'm rather impatient
Just got my new Honor 8X Max in the mail and it's the chinese version (I'm living in Europe). The model number is ARE-AL00. I got the GMS installer and the Google Installer v2 and now I can open the play store, but I can't use it to install or uninstall apps, it just gets stuck on the "(un)installing" screen. When I try to install the Play store from a separate apk I usually get a program which I can't even open. And I've tried this with and without the software update. If anyone has got the Play store working on this phone I'd love to know how you did it.
Overall I'm pretty upset with this phone. I didn't realize I was getting the Chinese version and of course it comes with all kinds of censorship and ability restrictions, I spend like 10 hours trying to figure out how to root it and it turns out Huawei decided to make unlocking the bootloader impossible only a few months ago and funkyhuawei (with their insane prices) can't even do anything for a Qualcomm chipset so I'm S.O.L. I don't think the Chinese company I bought from will give a refund after the box is opened so I'm basically out my $300 if I want another phone. I was excited to be getting such great hardware for such a low price but the lack of functionality and customizability makes it a complete waste.

Same situation here, here is what I did to get Play Store works on my Honor 8X :
- Turn on the "Authorize unknown source apps install thing"
- Install GMS installer to get the Play Store works
- Install Gboard to get rid of the chinese keyboard everywhere.
But still, I'm searching for the Global Firmware and according to a Honor / Huawei Customer Agent, they do not allow firmware downloads anymore.
Hope this can help other people in the same case...

Thanks a lot for the help. My more-tech-savvy friend encouraged me to use F-droid and Yalp and that has been working fine so I'm going to give that a try before insisting on getting Google back...I emailed Huawei customer support about unlocking the bootloader and received an interesting response:
"We kindly inform you that in order to achieve a better user experience, Huawei has decided to terminate the unlock code application service. If your device is already rooted, we inform you that it no longer counts with warranty or device support.
Also, Huawei USA does not provide codes to unlock the bootloader under any circumstance. We kindly inform you that this action can potentially "brick" the device or in other words, renders the device completely unusable and voids the warranty service and device support. We have no control over how unlocking the bootloader will affect your device."
I'm emailed Huawei USA just cause I'm American (living in Sweden though), but this response suggests that maybe if I email Huawei Sweden or China that they will give me one? Gonna give it a try and see what happens.
Also my original post may have been a bit reflexive, I need to give this phone a chance. I remember thinking my last phone (Galaxy S5) was pretty stupid for a few weeks, I eventually just got over it.

Yes the camera is good quality from what I can tell and the battery life is great. But it is a huge phone, if you don't want something so big then you should probably get the 8X instead of the 8X Max.

This is my very own guide on how to download Play Store on Honor 8X: https://www.oscrunch.com/2018/11/17/google-play-store-on-honor-8x-and-8x-max/
I guess you will have to use a different version of GMS installer. Also, this process requires you to install one more application.
Try this and let me know how it goes. It should work perfectly fine.

Yes, you nailed It!
Speaking for myself, I can say that Today I'm a happy owner of a Chinese Honor 8X, but in the past I was in trouble because I was not able to find the *right* version of GSM installer that fits to me (JSN-AL00a).
It was hard to clear all those Chinese apps from my device, but now I have a very strong phone with a high level of performance.

I had issue on installing Google play. Package installer block me from installing gmsinstaller.apk. what you do to get around it is thru adb. Make sure that you turn off "monitor app install by adb" in developer option or it won't work. If you need more detail let me know.

2.Go to developers options
3.Enable USB debugging
4.Disable Monitor apps installed by ADB

Whats the state of installing Google services, including the play store, on new huawei devices (I am specifically looking at mate 20 pro).
Does anyone have any info at all?
Thanks
Update: We have conflicting reports of people able to do it, and someone saying they have tried it and it crashes when opening and running youtube caused a message saying that GMS services were not installed.
So really, we are back to square one and have no idea what is actually going on.

Whats the state of installing Google services, including the play store, on new huawei devices (I am specifically looking at mate 20 pro).
Does anyone have any info at all?
Thanks

Not sure about mate 20 Pro, but other Huawei devices such as nova 3i bought in China can install Google play store directly from download, without any additional hassle.

I just got my LYA-AL00 delivered the other day. The seller mentioned that Google Play Services would not be installed, but it was.
Some sellers state that they will set it up for you, but mine stated that he would not, and it was still sealed.
Most of the Google apps were not installed, but I believe the Play Store was? (I could have misremembered on this one, though..)
If you get one that's only missing the Play Store, it's easy to grab from Huawei's App Gallery. Set or change your Huawei ID region to one that is supported (if yours is not, it will guide you to change it).

Thanks for the speedy reply.
So other Chinese Variant Huawei phones can install Google Play store as the apk, along with google maps and such and run as if it were an international version?
Is the GMS (Google Services) installed by default on the device?
Do you have any source or something I can see to confirm this?

Also thanks to you for your reply.
Where did you buy it from?
Mine will be purchased from a store in China, not shipped out.
Are you able to confirm that the seller did nothing other than just install the Google Play Store APK?
Also, what do you mean by;

I am not too sure about the details. I think the GMS is pre-installed. My wife (currently in Italy) is using a Huawei nova 3i she brought from China TMall (the biggest Chinese online market). She installed Google play store, drive, maps, translate, photos, etc without any issue. Just download play store apk and install then download the rest from the Google play store.
A friend in Thailand using the China Variant Huawei nova 3 also had no issue installing Google play store.
Sorry that I have no creditable source for your reference. It is all my personal first hand experience. I am sure if you dig around more on Xda or Weibo, you can find some clues. Or you can try your luck asking the China retailer if you can install Google Play store on the m20p.

That's great news for me.
I wonder why no one has mentioned this online before.
Thank you for your assistance.

I purchased it from a lower-volume retailer on eBay.

It was factory-sealed, as best as I could tell with the plastic wrapping.
This particular seller said that he would not offer to install it for me. He said it would not be on the phone, but Google Play Services appears to come pre-installed.

When you open AppGallery, it'll have you set up your Huawei ID and choose a region. I chose United States, and it said the app was unavailable in the region, but also displayed the option to change the region.

You and the other person have convinced me that it is indeed possible and very easy, no extra install needed.

Hey sorry guys, one last question.
What screen did you get?
LG or BOE?
I'm hoping the Chinese are the BOE ones.

My m20pro is bought in Singapore. No glue gate or green screen bleed so far.
No idea if my screen is BOE or LG.
From what I heard on Weibo, 6GB 128Gb Variant in China have a 1 in 3 chance of getting LG. The remaining 2 chances are BOE. The 8Gb 128Gb and 8Gb 256Gb Variant in China should be all BOE screens.

A simple test is just to drip water onto your screen edge to see if there is any green tint.

I found on another forum;
"To test if your screen glows go into battery settings and turn on the dark mode. Then go to a dark, glare free environment, such as a room at night and open the dialer. You'll immediately be able to tell if your screen is a experiencing this issue."

It's been reported it can take 3-7 days gradually getting worse before you notice it, so try this agian in a week and see.
So - this means westerners in China can buy, right? I was worried about Huawei's very recent bootloader locking changes may mean that their phones are less likely to be able to use Google app.
This is confirmed? Simply upload vpn apk - change internet region - then download Google play from huawei app store variant, yes?
Thank you greatly if so - I can go ahead with 8gb purchase without massive worries about ending up with a lemon.
Tried a Mate 20 Pro in a Chengdu store last night.
Was able to install Google Play Store BUT upon trying to open it immediately crashed. Subsequently installed YouTube. After opening got the message that GMS was not installed.
There was an install GMS button which I clicked, however, nothing happened. Had no VPN however, so if nothing happened because no VPN, or because it won't work even with VPN i'm not sure.
I was under the impression that installing GMS required unlocked bootloader, which seems hard with the Mate 20 Pro?

The previous two users I was talking to, plus another one on reddit has told me that they are able to get it working without downloading anything else.
I have not seen visual proof, just anecdotal so take that with a grain of salt.
Also whats the return policy in china? I'd think it would be worth getting one and returning if it cant?

You cant access Google in china without the VPN so I feel that would be a reason it wouldn't work, but I wouldn't expect it to crash.
Are you able to try again with a vpn? There are many free ones that don't require a set up, just to check. Also are those phones running a demo software or something?
Also, maybe asking them if they know, its unlikely but always worth a shot.

No returns policy, and no stock in stores atm.
Yes, they were demo units, but they defs didnt have GMS installed which has me worried as others have said installing GMS requires root access.
I wont have time to go back to store and try again with VPN
That said the store staff said you could install googleplay on the phones, but not sure to what extend I trust them.
Also have to be aware that even after changing language to english somethings will be in chinese e.g. hivoice App
Hi. I'm using Google Pay for quite long time, but suddenly it stopped working at all. It looks like the app don't recognize I'm holding the phone against a terminal. I'm on 9.0.0.210(C432E10R1P16). NFC is working, I can read nfc tags. In google play device is marked as certificated.
Any ideas what is going on ?
Have you tried a reboot or clearing Google pays cache in the apps area?

Yes, I have done both things. I have also my bank app and with this app nfc is working so its looks like this is only google pay problem.
check if your safetynet is working

Safenet passed, all succeed but nfc still not working.
I have the exact same problem - the phone doesn't even recognise the terminal and won't work for Google Pay on bus/underground or on card machines in store. I'm on build 9.0.0.265 not sure that is relevant but I only noticed the fail after the last software update.

If you both have the official updates and not run the hstool, you both should contact google support to check on the gpay status... ... the nfc is working fine, ju t not the gpay.. google should be able to check if its a backend problem
Mine is the same, rebooted phone and still nothing.
Standard build and still works on my connected smartwatch
This is really weird because this morning my mate 20 x was working fine on the london underground. But during lunchtime i couldnt tap to buy my lunch and then it wouldnt work on the tube on the way home. Since our problem happened at a similar time could this be a problem with huawei? I get zero reaction when i place it near a terminal.

Mine turned out to be that NFC had managed to turn its self off. I opened up Google pay and it told me it was off, turned it back on and now working again. No idea how it switched off in the first place, its not in my quick settings
There was a Google Play store update for Gpay a few days ago, did yours update? I'm on firmware 210 and Gpay worked Thursday but I have not tried since the app update.

So is it huawei or Google fault... So odd..
So a little update on my end. I restarted my phone many times and toggle nfc a bunch of times and today all i got was a reaction. This was the warning saying hold your phone closer but after that, nothing. I dont understand whats wrong, my phone has zero reaction when placed near a pay terminal and it seems like a physical fault maybe the nfc coil was burnt out or something.
But since me and OP had this happen at nearly the same time makes me think its a software issue. I thought it might be like the old note 5 i had where you can trip knox but i dont know.
I had to buy my mate 20x from hong kong since it wasnt sold in the UK. Not sure if i can even claim warranty here.
