Huawei messaging application ? - Huawei Mate 20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello everyone !
I just switched from a Huawei P10 to the brand new Huawei Mate 20 Pro and discovered that the messaging application was replaced with the one from Google.
Is there any way to get rid of the Google application and install the Huawei one instead ? I heard that the Chinese ROM of the recent Huawei phones still use the Huawei application but can't find any Apk out there.
If somebody can help me, please let me know !

I'm curious why you think the Huawei is better (I use Textra so don't know the Huawei nor Google msg'ing apps)?

Well it's mostly for UI reasons. I prefere the look and feel of the Huawei applications like Contacts, Emails and Agenda. It's more "integrated" in the general design of EMUI than the Google application.

Well you can remove apps and change region after rooting your phone. But otherwise, nearly all of them can be uninstalled. Any others you don't want you could move to the hide app section.
Its the Hivoice app which has no english voice support which cannot be deleted.
The Huawei app center is useful to keep Huawei apps updated, so i don't delete that.
Then the music and video app shows online Chinese content, but it might not be a problem since in international version they have no online content at all.
Hicare app is useful to send feedbacks and requests.
The theme app if you turn off phone remove sim card, and restart phone, the theme app will shows more themes that are available in China.
I have access to Huawei cloud so i use that as well, and pretty useful as the gallery and files manager is connected to the cloud.
Hi,
I have PLK-TH01H, is it also from China?
I noticed these versions:
ATH-AL00
PLK-TL00
PLK-CL00
PLK-AL10
PLK-TH01H
PLK-UL00
I would also like to remove chinese software but it sounds not so easy. We probably need to wait for a custom rom.

yeah, you need to do at least one EMUI update to get the Microsoft Translator. I got it after my phone notified me of the first update. The second EMUI update adds live wallpapers and the Amazon video app (which I uninstalled immediately).
I haven't received a second one yet... When did it happen?

I got the second update last week but it just adds live wallpapers and Amazon video app
on my mate 10 pro after the root the translator app has disappeared, can someone extract the apk and put it here?
Yes is possible I my phone.
I've downloaded it from the Play Store, is it the same as the stock one?
I think I may have accidentally deleted it
I tried it, but it's kind of slow, took 10 seconds to translate this:

Hi, I'm from the Microsoft Translator engineering team in "sunny" Seattle, WA.
If the event you don't have the app installed (or removed it unintentionally) in theory you should be able to just go to the Huawei store (not Google play as we can't put two versions of the app there) and re-install it.
However, after I saw this post we went to check and realized it's not there. We're talking to our Huawei engineering partners soon and hopefully it will be fixed shortly. Then, if the Huawei store detects it's a Mate 10 or Honor view 10 it will automatically send you the IA-build. Other Huawei phones will get the "vanilla" version that has all the same features but the NMT offline translations packs, just regular SMT ones (still probably the best on the market based on our internal testing from last year!).
Note: All cloud translations as AI (well, for supported NMT languages!), it's only when you're offline and for the dozen NMT offline pack (easy to know which ones: they're 1/2 the size of the non-NMT ones, 100MB instead of 200MB) that you'll use the Kirin processor accelerated translations.
Note 2: if you had it on the phone, and I know it's kind of brute force, you can factory reset your phone and it should come back.
I hope it helps and for any app questions the best is to just ask them on our Uservoice forum ( we monitor it daily): microsofttranslator.uservoice.com

No, it's the default one, without offline NMT support. If you're online it makes absolutely no difference though.

You will know if you have the Huawei version as you will see the Huawei logo on the bottom of the splash screen.

Other tip: the icon is slightly different. The standard app has as "a" and a Japanese character in the icon. The Huawei version has a "a" and a Chinese character.

Still can't find it on my device
ALP-L29 8.0.0.132 (c185)
Does this have office voice translate?
no, only text translation offline
For me it doesn't work anymore. It always says "can't translate this" no matter what I point my camera on. Also text gets the same error immediately after opening the menu even before typing in text. Same for voice

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.

ARCore for Huawei - No google services

For the phones not supported by ARCore listed here:
https://developers.google.com/ar/discover/supported-devices
For instance the p40 is not there, and as you all know in general not supported with Google stuff.
So how would you make AR solutions for these phone?
Is there a way to tweak it so AR core can run on these phones?
I use Unreal/Unity to build apps and then I install the .apk directly, so I don't need google play.
I cannot buy all phones, but I suspect it will not work on these?

Hi, I think you can ask in HUAWEI Developer Forum. A lot of Huawei experts there, you can get quick and accurate answer about this question.
oh thx, I thought they where here too.

Google Services on imported Huawei Mate 10?

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 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
