You will have to root and install googleplay from somewhere. China doesn't use google play. You will get instructions on how to root from here if you search the honor 10 forum but when it comes to install googleplay you will have yo do aome extra research amd find the files you can install from twrp. Unfortunately im away from my pc to give you some links for few days. It is possible anyway and google play should not stop you from buying the phone. What is the actual problem is that you will need bootloader unlocking code so you can root. If you can not get the code dont buy the device

Thanks for the fast reply!
i'll ask the seller about the code.
Ah sorry but this guys is talking ****.
I own the Honor 10 AL10 China Version with 6GB Ram and 128 GB Rom. On my phone also Play Store wasnt installed but all you need to do is download APK (from apk mirror as example) and install it. After this you have access to almost all Google Play features. Dont know how about Google Pay...

You see this guy has a bit of manners and he will reply you that if the phone he gets doeant contain Google api, he will be screwed because apk will not be enough. You can not be sure what kind of firmware he has in. That you had the luck to get a device with firmware that contains google api and so you managed to just install apk doesnt make me wrong. So take back your statement please.
Back to the point OP i wouldnt risk it for many reasons. Yes more ram, yes more memory but locked bootloader means you can not touch anything.
I also have a Chinese honor 10, can not use goolge playtore, any solutions except root?

U don't need to root or flash another system. China edition supports Google Service.
First, open AppGallery.
Second, search Google Play
Third, tap UPDATE

I'm contemplating getting an Oppo Finder X907, here in Shanghai. Unfortunately, being an officially developed phone, by a sanctioned chinese company, it doesn't have google play or any of the google apps.
So I am wondering if someone has a way to get google play installed on the phone without doing any firmware hacks or jailbreaking.
Any suggestions?

Flash it with the Thai version ROM (www.oppothai.com)
You can install google play off an apk file.
I have the file if you need it.
You don't need to root the phone.
Neewbie here,
Have a quick question. UK user, purchased a Chinese Samsung Galaxy Win (dual sim) GT-I8552. Unfortunately, I dont think its going to come with the Google Play app.
Im not interested in installing custom roms, custom recovery modules etc, all I desire is to be able to access the Play store to restore my purchased apps on old Android phone!
Is there any way I will be able to install a Stock from FROM A DIFFERENT REGION to the Phone, or am I stuck with no google play or having to install a custom rom (which I believe from searches, a stable version doesnt exist at present for the I8552!). I am planning on using the standard Samsung Tools to install the Stock ROM from a different region.
The phones specs and hardware are identical, apart from the Internal memory, which is 4Gb as opposed to 8Gb on the non Chinese model....
Thanks in advance, as a newb I couldnt post this to the Dev side, if any Android XDA developers could repost in dev if I dont get an answer on the general forum....
Thanks in advance!
Download it as APK

Without installing any ROM or doing anything dangerous, you can get the APK of the Play Store.
Here is a link for the latest one as for today (4.6.16) : goo. gl/IF8SoA
Download it and open it from your phone and install it and it should work.
If it didn't work, you have other alternatives such as Aptoide.
If you don't have the Google Play store, then most probably you don't have the Google Play Services package. For this, you may need to root your device and install it as a zip, or google Gapps for your device and download each APK by itself.
I have a Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon with MIUI Global 8.2.10.0 (MCFMIDL) and Google Play Services 9.8.79 (448-137224771).
I want to download an .apk of the latest version of Google Play Services because I don't want to register a Google account for privacy reasons and there's a program that won't run without it.
However, even after reading two tutorials I'm not sure what version will work on my phone, especially since there may be a version specifically made for Xiaomi phones.
Can someone help me out and tell me what version I should download?

Hey, I tried to install Google play services + Gapps but all ways failed in both Emui 8 + 9
Google play service it doesn't show in Settings.
If i flash it using other region rom will it have Google play Services?
Huawei is now blocked offical bootloader unlock code aisle. but you can still get it on Third-party platform or get it by yourself.
if You just want to change languages, press"设置", go to "系统"-"语言和输入法", and then find"简体中文（中国）", change it to English.
if You just want to install Google Play, you can search "GMS安装器" in Google and download it, when installation, the Devices will be reboot. if this not working, you can try to downgrde and retry.
My English is not very well, I Hope it will helpful for you.
hello, does someone Have a flash file on Huawei enjoy 9 DUB-AL00? Thanks in Advance
Hi everyone,
After reading and checking alot of threads here and in 10 pro threads of how to install OxygenOS on chinese varinet devices, i found out that alot of people bricked their devices, and there is no clear reason for that, sometime due to ignoring the unknown partitons, may be after relocking the bootloader .. etc.
so as long as there is no MSM tool i think i will stick to ColorOS.
i will receive the device (Ace Pro) this week.
Just i want to ask, how can i install google services on the phone (get sync, contacts, autofill password,having all apps ..etc) ..
and what is the overall experince of the colorOs
if you could help to test the Google Pay. I had a OPPO FindX3 pro Chinese version run native ColorOS, although i manage to get install GMS and all Google service, however Google Pay will failed after few days, but ok in the first few days of adding credit card. I had no solution on this for a year. Wanna know if Oneplus running on ColorOS would have the same probelm.
