Chinese Honor 9 Google - Honor 9 Questions & Answers

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.

[Q] Google Maps crash in Mokee OS 4.4.2

Hi Everyone. I am happy to be a new member of the XDA Developers forum site. I look forward to sharing what i have learned and learning what i have not. So this is my problem. I have flashed the Mokee Rom to my Galaxy note i717r. It has been an amazing experience puttering around the different system configs. However i am a regular Google maps user. I was going to do a search and Mokee did not even give me a chance to search Google maps before it flashed a message saying Google Maps in not working.I have spent some time on different sites (Mokee open source, Offical Android forum, Google + for Mokee, ect.) with no results so far. I even researched the web for a bug fix kernel to splice into my Mokee OS. Nothing yet. It would be a shame to remove it from my Phone after getting to know the system. Please can someone give me a solution.
Is the playstore still working fine? If so, try uninstalling and reinstalling maps.
Still persists anybody has a clue on this?

[Q] No Google Play Services

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.

Xiaomi Laser projector

Hi, I have recently purchased a Xiaomi laser projector. I like it a lot. It has the same menu as Chinese version of xiaomi mi box. The problem is that the projectors menu is in Chinese as well. I have made a little review on the menu here https://youtu.be/yPDoM2FYekE but I really want android 7, or at least 6 but a European version. Does anyone here knows someone who participates in building these roms so I can ask them??
you can install an English setup app
I am interested in buying this projector too, I saw an YouTube video saying there was a software that you can install to alter the setup setting so that there are in English. If you have not already seen them, I may try to play around with the android version however it may just be easier to attach it to another box such as the android shield TV and use it that way instead of killing yourself with Chinese apps and trying to upgrade Android.
It's pretty easy to change to English and install any app you want. I installed YouTube but you can't sign into an account due to no Google services pre installed. It's super responsive and great picture quality. It would be awesome if someone has a chance to make a rom for it or work out a way to get the play store and a launcher to run on it
I have exactly the same problem.
Although you can install an app to change the language to English, 95% of the ROM is still in Chinese.
This device is not even listed in XDA-developers long list of devices. I am not sure how many developers will spend 1500+$ to buy, develop and test roms on this projector.
It would be great to have an international ROM based on Android TV similar to the Mi Android Box.
Meanwhile, I connect my chromecast to the projector and it works just fine. Of course, this means that I am not using any of the "Smart" functionalities of the device.
hey if someone found an answer I would really love to know too. Got some english which is fine, but the miui tv version 1.3.63 on android 6.0.1 is a pain to have. Bloat ware apps everywhere that just reappear on uninstall.
Also no playstore is an issue. The netflix I have is not really fitted to screen size and also remote does not reach certain parts. so its cut off.
I dare not meddle with it at the moment, becasue I think the software can maybe root and do something about it? But what about the hdmi and av inputs. I am just worried if i meddle with it, I lose these inputs.
HELP if someone found an answer I would really love to know too. The miui tv version 1.3.63 on android 6.0.1 is dead the playstore not work in this version. HELP
Hello

You could try aptoide tv which is a play store alternative , you may need to side load it.
Unfortunately I do not have this device to try and create a ROM and I have never created one.
I get the impression its not that hard, I would just make a backup of the exiting Android should things go bad and then try Lineage OS which you can download for free. If I am not being clear I am talking about using a custom ROM with the latest Android Lineage OS.. I did this on an old Kindle tablet and had no issue. Well maybe I am not being completely truthful my first attempt at flashing I almost bricked the device, it took at lot of nerve and patience to make it work. Here a link below with more details on Flashing as I am not talking about an old man in a long rain coat.

Hello everyone!
The 12 september xiaomi will release a version of the mi laser projector for eu with oreo 8.0 and android tv, i have the projector in chinese version, are there any chance to bring the update on my device? At least it would be a simple flash of a oreo rom, or not?
Hi!
I also have Chinese version and would love to install the firmware for EU.
Normally the update should work via the USB with downloaded FW. So if Xiaomi publish the update we can give it a try. The question is whether the FW will check the region or any other thing before installation?
In the meantime, is there any manual how to make a backup or rooting via the Android Development on PC?
Hi,
I have the Chinese version with just a little bit English settings I would love to have the eu rom
what would be needed that someone can help us to get the EU-Rom on the China- Version?

There may be some hope for your request as on Oct 06, 2018 a user @servo386 was able to use abd and TWRP (loaded but not installed) to make a Nandroid copy of his v01 ROM (Chinese version). A few users have encouraged him to post on XDA. He is currently refining the process and trying to install Magisk for full root.
You need to be aware that the Android Oreo full English ROM, for this projector, has some draw backs. One of the biggest is that Xiaomi Oreo likely did a rush software job as they have dropped some very important projector specific settings/functionality. Primary to a lot of users is that 3D is no longer an option and that color correction controls are lacking between the two ROMS. On the other hand you do get working Google Playstore integration.
Also despite the recent success of @servo386 no TWRP nandroid backup of the Oreo version currently exists nor has the method used by @servo386 been tried by a Oreo Mi PJ owner. It's still encouraging news though.
All right, you can see the european version test here : http://www.passionhomecinema.fr/blo...iaomi-dlp-version-francaise-lavis-de-gregory/

Just in case it might be useful, here's an app I made to access engineering menu.
I have this projector and I wasn't able to install Google Services on it. I tried very many versions. Currently Im using it with Chromecast connected to its HDMI port. But I would love to see some custom ROM for it.
Android 8 Dolby/DTS
My international Projector has Android 8. I have problems with DTS and Dolby on the AVR. Here only stereo arrives. Whether Netflix, Plex, Media Server ... Sometimes restarts help. With another Android TV box directly on the AVR it works flawlessly. That is very disappointing.

Here is a more active forum with many owners of this projector both the V1 and V2 (international) models. You are likely to have better luck with that forum's thread. This one is more oriented to modding the projector's OS than Home Theater related experiences such as your describing. At the very least the owners can tell you if they have similar experiences or not.

Problem installing the google everything on the Honor 20 Pro 8 + 256

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.

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.

GMS on Mate 40 Pro Plus

Hi, everybody!
I am wondering if it is possible to somehow install the Google Mobile Services on the Mate 40 Pro Plus. I am pretty sure I have read it somewhere but I just can't find it anymore.
As far as I remember I have read that running the Google apps is possible on said phone as it is a Chinese version (obviously not released anywhere else in the world). Is this true? Is it possible to run GMS on a Mate 40 Pro+ and if that's the case is there any tutorial on how to do it?
Thanks in advance!
