I have an old laptop that is running Bluestacks build 0721 Beta, which is great news. But I'm having problems trying to download a specific app that I can only get from Google play.
The main problem is Google Play doesn't come pre-installed, and so through trial and error I've had to to install the ADW Launcher app from the pre-installed mobile1 app, which allows me to at least get to the Google Play homepage.
But this then asks me for my Google account and password which I enter, which then causes it to promptly return to the ADW Launcher home.
I think the problem is that although I can add a Facebook and Twitter account with this version, I can't add a Google account. I've tried to download the current Google Gmail app, but it says my device isn't compatible.
Any of you guys know how I can get get Google Play to download apps on the first downloadable build 0721 of Bluestacks?
Cheers,
Jmc
I can log in Google chrome and play store on my new mate 10 pro. However, when I checked "My device" list on Google play on my laptop, it didn't show my new mate 10. Anyone knows how to add it to the device list?
Thanks.
Hi, everyone
I have LYA-AL00 (Official firmware (Chinese version)).
I could install Google maps (also Google play store).
But I couldn't turn on location history.
Do you know how to fix it ?
Google maps:
Settings -> Personal content -> Location History is off (can not turn on)
Cannot install Google tools (on LYA-AL00 and on LYA-AL10)
Hi, please how did you manage to install Google Play store ?
Many thanks

I installed Google Play Store from Appgallery of Huawei.
If you can't find it, probably you should logout in Huawei ID or change region.
Huawei Mate 20 Pro
same question,
I have LYA-AL10 (Official firmware (Chinese version)).
I have installed Google maps (also Google play store).
But I couldn't turn on location history. I've got all other google apps working except this location history function.
maybe that's the only limitation between LYA-AL10 (Chinese version) and LYA-AL29(global version)?
Anyone has the solution yet?
Funckyhuawei doesn't have the rebranding code yet...

I tried the Google Installer of the Mi App Store but it did not work.
I encountered this error for most apps: Can't downgrade apps.
That is why I have listed the apps above so you know what to install and you are sure to get the latest versions for each.

I see. I have found a few Google Installer apps that might help but they are all in Chinese.... So your method might be the best

you update to 10.3.8, then go to app store, download google play store directly, and enjoy.
I also try the google installer and got error, but then find out that app store can install google play. Google service is on be default.
I can't sync contact,
Can't see contact sync option in Setting-->sync-->Google..
I installed all app from Google installer 3.0 & Google Contacts Sync (noarch) from apk mirror.

I had the same problem. Try to reinstall it, enable autostart and disable any energy restrictions in App Infos. Restart your phone eventually.

Weird because as far as I remember, when typing Google in the App Store, the only result was Google Installer.

Unfortunately I could not see those apps in Mi Store before installing the Google Framework, Services, Sync and Play Store.
But now I can see a lot more apps (Google Translate, AirBnb, ...)
It is weird I have 2 possible results to display.
anyone has else issue setting up card for instore payment with google pay?
miui 10.3.11
Can't complete set up for contactless payment
To resolve this, you'll need to contact your bank. You can still pay with this card on Google and across other apps and sites, just like before.
i have no issue with setting up these cards on another phone though...

I had the problem too and I tried all your steps but none worked. I found a guide on google which actually works. It's here http://en.miui.com/thread-4843639-1-1.html
Basically it says to turn off the MIUI Optimization and get an app from the Play Store called "App Permission Info" to bring back the AOSP style permission UI and set the permission for Contact and ContactSync app from there since MIUI permission doesn't work well on this particular case.
Edit: I just found a way to access AOSP style permission without additional app on MIUI 10. Just search "optimization" in the settings and click on "Battery Optimization". You have to open it from the search list otherwise it won't open the AOSP style app info.
in my quest to install google play i did something wrong.
In notification i get a warning: "Update Google Play services - Google play services wont run unless you update..." but when i press on the notification, google play opens, with Play services and the only option is "Deactivate".
Can anyone point out a solution?
if we already get the google play store, does it mean we don't need to finish downloading the remain apps from google installer? i stuck at google play service. Pls to reply. thanks

Thank you for joining xda-developers..com.
Please understand that we need information from you in order to help you.
"I'm struggling with my YouTube and gmail app." isn't helpfull. What exactly is the problem you're facing?
And which attemps you found online didn't help? Why didn't they help (e.g. did you get any error message)?
For huawei p9, you just need to download the Google Play Store apk from apkmirror or apkpure and sideload the Play Store app. Then you will find the launch icon of Play Store.
Open Play Store to install YouTube and gmail app.
