Hi,
I recently bought an android phone from overseas (China) and when I was trying to set it up I noticed that there are no Google Play services meaning there is no Play Store, Music etc, I can't sync my contacts or emails and do a lot of the stuff associated with Google.
The Phone is an HTC Desire 5088 (I think its the Chinese version of the Desire 510) running Android 4.1.2. I really just want to install all the Google services so that the phone runs like a regular android phone.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Also I know this may be the wrong place to post this but would anyone be able to point me in the right direction as to how to root the device? I have tried looking everywhere but can not find anything.
Thank you.
Maybe this is due to ban on google in china.
Solution could be to root the device and flash gapps package.
Even better would be to find a chinese forum for your device and see how those guys do it.
Use google translate of course.
Hey,
My Samsung s6 broke while in China and I ended up picking up a Honor 9.
Everything seems to work fine but I don't have google services and can't seem to find the core GMS package it is asking for.
I have looked into it and found another thread ( https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-9/how-to/gms-core-t3510121. )but I don;t think that is possible anymore
The ideal solution for me would be to install EMUI 5.1 with all the usual google stuff already there but I can't seem to find a way of doing this.
Anyone got an idea of the direction I should take with this?
That's a common issue when you get a phone in China market, no Google and its apps.
In Honor 6X forum, we have figured out some way to get them back. You may refer to my post below.

Hello, every one.
just picked up the Honor 20 Pro in Shanghai.
I work in Shanghai and needed a new phone.
So picked up the Honor 20 Pro.
Knowing that the Honor 20 itself has the Google Framework on it. So, being straightforward, I automatically thought that the 20 pro will have it also so that I can update the Google play and got everything back.
Believed that it is the first machine that Huawei / Honor has taken away the framework totally.
I downloaded GMS installer from internet and it is saying that it is not allowed ( not sure if there may be more different versions of it ).
Some other game me total 4 files:-
google account management apk
google framwork apk
google play apk
google play service apk
installed everything and then go back to the settings to add account, selected google and then screen stuck for -ever.
Any one has any solutions to install the google back on Honor 20 pro and work?
Thanks.

Fortnite Skin
Hello, if you don’t play Fortnite can you pm me the code for the wonder skin using the instructions below. Please!!! I’m a huge fan of the game and really want the skin.
Open up AppGallery. From there, click on the “Me” icon, and then on “Gift.” This should bring up a banner that has the Honor 20 Wonder outfit (a teal and purple colored girl) on it. Click the banner to copy its code.

In fact you should be able to install google play from huawei app store. No need GMS from elsewhere.
Successfully using google service as above for Honor V20 China version.

Incorrect! Even Honor 20 can use your way to have Google ready.
But Honor 20 Pro not!
Honor 20 Pro don't have any google framework preinstalled.
And even you manual install or use many of "Google Installer",
All not work.
You may check huawei's official forum,, more then 100+ post complain about this.
It's just wont work.
Ask huawei's customer service, they say "maybe Google Service will support later, but no promise"

I used HiCare and used "requested update" from HiCare, not from adjust-->update. After that the update appear in adjust-->update. When you download the update says you only can use the update in the next 60 days.

Hi, I imported a Huawei Mate 10 2.5 years ago from China because it's the only way I could get a phone that has a 16:9 screen!
However, I can't download the NHS Test and Trace app (I'm in the UK), and while I have Google Play Services, I understand I need Google Services. Can someone please explain the way to get this in the most simple terms? Thanks.
Can someone help, please?

I've no idea if that's genuine, but the fact is, I just want to get Google Services, so I can download the NHS app officially.

I was hoping someone could tell me here, as I understood this was the font of all knowledge.
The method I used was:
I happen to have mate 9, which was running Android version 9 and Mate 10 Pro AL00 ( just like you) with ver 10.
- I used HiSuite to downgrade my 10Pro to Android 9
- Use backup on Mate 9 and backed up google services, google play onto external USB drive
- connected the same drive and copied files to 10 Pro - download dir
- install google services and google play on 10 Pro
- update 10Pro to ver 10 using HiSuite
