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?

My device is Mate 10 model ALP-AL00 and OS is EMUI ALP-AL00 8.0.0.125(SP3C00). Any google software and google play service cannot be used on my phone. Please give me some advice.
Not sure if this still available on mate 10 but you need to install gms core installer from hiapp.

You are talking about Google play the one for games,not play services that is needed for all Google stuff.
On Chinese firmware seems it's not installed,so it need an application gms core that install all Google things.
probably you need to rebrand it to install googleapps
But when I run google play store It stucks on “checking info”step.

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
Hi Everyone,
I am looking to buy an 8 inch tablet in the cheaper price range of +- $ 200.00.
When comparing, I am still choosing between:
- Xiaomi Mi Tab 4
- Lenovo Tab4 plus 8
After some searching I have found a lot of info, but I have too many questions. Can someone help me decide?
1. I am looking for a tablet, mainly to use on Holiday to watch video's, stock camera pictures and use it as a basic computer for mail and browsing. English language is fine.
2. I have found 3 ROMs: Global - China - Vendor
Which one should I go for? I want a stable tablet with a lot of apps. Maybe install Android instead of the basic OS, but not sure yet as I haven't tried it yet
3. locked/unlocked bootloader: what is this for and how can I recognize it?
Hope you can help me which version to buy
Thanks!
Tom
mi pad 4 doesnt have official global version. so if anyone is selling one with global rom, its fake. buy one with china rom, than unlock bootloader and flash xiaomi.eu rom. you should be good to go after that. this is what i did, and i use my tab mostly for internet use and media consumption, and its working fine after doing those steps.
Mi Pad 4 has better specs (i.e. CPU and battery) than Lenovo.
See #2 reply.
You need unlocked bootloader to install custom ROM, including the xiaomi.eu ROM. Most Mi Pads are sold with locked bootloader and you need to wait for a month to unlock (you can use the device as usual while waiting). Some Mi Pads are sold pre-unlocked, seller would highlight it. Do note locked bootloader is totally different from carrier-locked. All Mi Pad are carrier-unlocked.
China ROM has English language, but doesn't include GApps (e.g. Google Play Store/Services). While you can easily install it through the MIUI App Store (or directly download the APK), but it doesn't always work.
That's why some users install xiaomi.eu ROM because it includes GApps and supports more languages. But again, you need unlocked bootloader.
Here's what you can do once you got a Mi Pad:
Install the apps you want through Mi App Store or Yalp Store. Yalp Store allows you to install apps from the Play Store without using the Play Store app. If you depend on Google Account, then those apps probably won't work, so you need GApps.
If you need GApps, try the Google Installer from Mi App Store or its APK.
If that doesn't work, you need to unlock bootloader and flash xiaomi.eu ROM.

Thank you so much for this reply, it's exactly what I was looking for.
So I will go for the China ROM, which will be fine to start. If needed, I can unlock the bootloader and set up the Xiaomi.eu ROM, thank you very much! Will this cause the tablet to slow down or will it work just fine?
EU ROM should have similar performance.
Hi guys. I just want to know if someone already installed a google mobile services on P40 Pro+ ELS-AN10 android version 10, EMUI 10.1, Build number 10.1.0.155?
Google Mobile Services isn't Google Play Store. What do you really want to install?
BTW:
Google Play Store is not available at Google Play Store as an app to download. So you can install APK file of Google Play Store for your Android device from APKPure.com.
Google Mobile Services
Hi sir. Thank you for the reply. I'm pertaining to Google Mobile Services. My unit is in china so it's hard to find support. And also I am afraid to downgrade because my version information is telling me that it's model is ELS-LGRP5-CHN but when i search on firmware finder apk it shows ELS-LGRP4-OVS. And when I use the web version it shows only 1 firmware for ELS-LGRP5-CHN model. I'm afraid to try those ELS-LGRP4-OVS version. Thank you.
