Hi, I'm looking for a way to install gms on huawei p50 series European version, especially p50 pocket. I tried several methods, but all require or a downgrade, quindo you must necessarily own a p40 series or in any case in previous model that has come out of the factory with previous versions of emui, or a Chinese version of the device with harmony OS installed is required or finally to convert your device to a Chinese version, but for this procedure a downgrade to emui 11 or 10 is still required, which as mentioned before is impossible for the p50 series. Obviously huawei does not provide codes for unlocking the bootloader, so I am looking for an alternative way. As soon as a method for installation is found, it will be posted here. If you have medotes kindly post them
As far as I know P50 x started with EMUI 12. That's why you will not find a ROM to downgrade.
It seems that there is a custom ROM out for the pro but not for the pocket.
I just made another thread in this subforum to ask if someone can confirm that P50 harmony OS checks the phone model and refuses to run on the global version. Otherwise looking for HarmonyOS stock ROM and installation via TWRP could be an option.

The basic problem is that huawei does not allow unlocking the bootloader, not providing more codes since 2018. If you know alternative methods to unlock the bootloader, then install twrp and flash rom, you could write them here and I will be happy to try them
I state that I'm looking for solutions for native installation of gms, so 'gspace' or other emulation apps will not be good

How can I convert my p50 pocket eu to Chinese version? I tried several methods but with poor results
I think it's not possible for P50x.
It appears that in opposite to P40x they check now the smartphone model so that China ROM won't be available to install for an EU modell.

Yes, I knew. To convert the smartphone to Chinese version you need to downgrade to emui 10, which however you can not run on p50x as their factory os is emui 12.
That's why I opened this discussion to search or work on medotes for the native installer of gms on p50x eu.
Thank you for your reply.

In XDA-Developers every code builders finding solutions for Mate 9 but there is nothing for Mate 9 Pro (LON) versions.
I am opening this thread if someone give a hand to resolve downgrading problem Oreo Beta to Offical Nougat.
In Mate 9 forum @mankindtw build HWOTA 8 solution for MHA versions. Probably people will suggest me to use FunkyHuawei thing. But PayPal and BitCoin payment methods are not working in my country because of acredition at banking system.
So if any developer can support M9 Pro, it's too much appriciated for me.

It's possible while you are in stock recover via Firmware Finder. Just you need to find which stock ROM works for your device. None of Rollback Roms worked with me.
Yep! I'm also waiting for this! Hope a solution comes soon

Probably @mankindtw preparing a solution. He made the old HWOTA system and nowadays keeps silence. It's my guess, waiting for the official ROM release date.
@duraaraa I have a spesific problem. I'm using Huawei Mate 9 Pro. Bootloader unlocked, Oeminfo file belongs to orginal LON-AL00C00B225 but system running under Oreo 8.0.0.323 C636 log. It is sometimes running and sometimes don't.
I tried to downgrade Oreo to Nougat but it wasn't possible by Firmware Finder (special thanks to @gmanrainy for kind interest) or @mankindtw 's solutions. Probably file structure is different on Oreo, that could be reason for not downgrading.
Anyway, I know you are also moderating FunkyHuawei webpage. Is it possible for my situation to rebrand C636 and install LON-L29C636B235 version? Your payment methods not working in my country so I'l figure it out somehow. But I clearly wanted to learn if it is really work for me.

Yes, it's possible. But I would need to look into which package you need to install. You'd probably need to use FHRebrandTool to fix the branding correctly.

You'd need to flash the Oreo firmware with FHUnbrickTool if it's not booting. Or you can re-unlock the bootloader. Probably issue is you used the tool with unlocked bootloader and a modified partition somewhere, I'm guessing.
You might also be able to use eRecovery method with Android O firmware. Downgrading to N will need to be done AFTER you have it booting in Android O.
I can't monitor this thread well, so you should email FH support if you need help.
EDIT: I apologize. I thought you were using FH tools. Apparently not. Yes, FH can fix your phone, to answer your question from before. There is no other solution for M9Pro right now.

I wrote an email on 23th but there is no answer from FHteam. Anyway my phone now is totally bricked. Opening in error mode. Error no 13 with no image. As you know I tried to downgrade from Oreo to Nougat.
Can we fix it and install the original Chinese edition on my phone? No problem if it would be Oreo or Nougat.
I'm going to try to buy credits from a different way, because PayPal is not working in my area.

@duraaraa I want to thank FunkyHuawei team for responding very fast this time. We were online together.
I think my device hard bricked and I'll try everything to access fastboot mode. I always have bootloop and error mode continously. Key combinations don't work. Only power key, but it doesn't shuts down the phone, it always restarts. I was really expecting a downgrade solution from @mankindtw like he did for Mate 9 before. But he didn't and now device is hard bricked. Before an Oreo installation they need to warn people about there is no return.
No problem. I believe we will save my M9 Pro together. Thank you in advance and I'll stay in touch.

Dear Friends
I have bought a Huawei Mediapad T8 and I am trying to find a custom ROM to flash it. Unfortunately there is nothing on Cyanogenmod site.
If anyone has any reference site where I can find ROM s for this model please share it with me.
Sincerely
Konstantinos
Mediapad T8 has android 10 - so it can be part of Project Treble since it is 8+ - it means, you can flash GSI (generic system image) of many of custom roms and no need for certain full rom.
But, I guess, you will need to unlock bootloader and got permissive kernel and probably need to remove encryption for user data before got bootable custom rom.

Dear Friend
Thank you very much for replying to my thread. I admit that it is the first time that I heard about GSI (Generic System Image). I am looking for a custom rom so I can use the Play Store that is now missing from most Huawei devices. Unlocking bootloader is not so hard , I can get the code from Huawei in 7 months from now. Dealing with the GSI is something that I can not manage to be honest. I will wait for a custom rom. Thanx again.
Sincerely
Konstantinos
@coa00kt
Actually there are more than 10 Custom ROMs available:
https://fossbytes.com/android-custom-roms/
Dear Friend
Thank you for the link. Which one is for Huawei Matepad T8? I can't find anything.
Please help
Konstantinos
@coa00kt
Take note that any Android OS ( Stock ROM and/or Custom ROM ) you intend to install isn't device's model/brand dependant, but on device's CPU architecture. Almost all Android device's are powered by an ARM CPU.
Dear Friend
I am a noobie. Which ROM do you suggest for Mediatek MT8768 chipset (Octa-core 4x2.0 GHz Cortex-A53 & 4x1.50 GHz Cortex A53)?
Sincerely
Konstantinos
@coa00kt
Can't recommend any because I never used a Custom ROM: I have reasons for this.
Dear Friends
The main reason that I am looking a custom ROM is the advantage of using "Play Store". Otherwise Huawei Android 10 is just fine. Please help me find something that will work 100%. Otherwise I will stay with Huawei Android 10.
Thanx again

Dear friend,
In the meanwhile you can use GPStore alternatives like Aurora store or ApkPure or ApkMirror for apps that can not be found on Huawei's AppGallery.
On the other hand, you can install about 8 to 10 apps from Huawei phone/tablet (before US sticky fingers) in the form of backup and restore them to your tablet. Tutorial like this is simmilar for all phones. Also found some backup on GDrive for HiSuite or usb restore.

Hello Friend
I have installed APKPure , it is very usefull. About 80% percent of the applications are running fine. Unfortunately about 20% require the Google Play Services. I will stick to this solution until Huawei provides me the Bootloader Code (After 12 Months) and a custom rom is created .

Hi
You can just flash GApps pico. It installs Play Store and Google Service.
Do you know if Google apps pico require an unlocked bootloader? What is the process? Do I have to install custom recovery?
Hello.
Please, can someone extract the original apk from the notes and post here? I accidentally deleted mine and now I can't find it. Thanks.
Hi there, i managed to install a google account and a working playstore via this youtube tutorial, and google services is working outside of an irritating notification which you can turn off.

i wouldnt recommend installing a custom rom that is not specifically for your device, especially if you are a noobie. the devices appart from the SOC have many components that require specific drivers. in any case, you have to be extra carefull in following the instructions otherwise ou ll end up with a brick. your best bet is to find a recovery (again for your device) and flash open gapps.

But huawei doesn't provide bootloader unlock codes anymore
Is it possible to root Matepad T8 ?
I think you no longer need Custom ROM to use GApps into this device. I have bought this device few days ago and found a way to run GApps. Just open Huawei AppGallery and look for "GSpace", it will solve GApps issue.
Hi all,
I have a P40 Pro Plus ELS-N39 c636 @ Emui 11.0.0.168. I've been searching for all successful methods to get GMS installed and especially any recent methods that don't require a downgrade of Emui to 10.X levels as I think, and I maybe be wrong in thinking this, would stand less chance of bricking the phone by not having to go through the downgrade firmware method.
This led me to find this website and guide in Chinese. Credit to Mobileai.net and I think a 'Leo' who explains the steps in Mandarin. It seems to be a method of using Googlifier (maybe modded) on Emui11.
https://mobileai.net/2020/11/13/huawei-emui-11-install-google-play-store-googlefier-gms/
You can use a decent browser to translate the text to English.
I have not tried this guide yet and would like to seek any concerns any one may have of the procedure. In my head all the activity is in software and any problems can be reverted by factory reseting to the base firmware of the phone. The guide does say there's a good chance it may not work for international versions but since my phone is HK origin I might be successful....
What do you all think? Worth a try?
Thanks in advance.
To my knowledge, the Chinese firmware is much easier for getting Google services installed, while the European one has been hardened to comply with the ban.

The one Leo uses is actually the same one as what bender007 posted in here (yes I did binary comparison they're identical).
The key is that LZPlay app got installed on your phone has to be able to work with your firmware, which you will know by clicking on the LZPlay app once it's installed by the Googlefier. Tried it on my P40 pro (APAC/Australia version), didn't work even after I downgraded to 10.1.0.182, I couldn't get the firmware version even lower so it's basically a deadend for me, yours might be different LZPlay might work with your HK version firmware tho.
Tried this method on ELS-AN10 with EMUI11 11.0.0.170 and it is working.
Took me around 4 hours and 7 unsuccessful tries before it was successful.
please provide all steps/details. the chinese version it's hard to follow

Hey all.
So sufficient time has past to make me feel like trying the downgrade route to try Googlifier with the above method.
I've followed the prep work on my laptop for my build using this ICTfix video for the latest 1 downgrade route.
I'm presently on EMUI 11.0.0.193 (C636E2R1P3).
Using https://firmfinder.ml I'd like to confirm thee filtered results are correct for my phone:
Downgrade version set:
ELS-LGRP6-OVS (hw-spcseas) 10.10.132
ELS-N39-CUST (hw-spcseas) 10.1.0.3 (C636)
ELS-N39-PRELOAD (hw-spcseas) 10.1.0.1(C636R1)
Does this combo for Hsuite proxy seem right to allow Googlifier to work and do I need to go to the lowest available firmware for C636? 10.1.0.142 is the next available. then 10.1.0145.
Thanks for any input you guys may share.

Thought I give you all an update since I got no reply. So I prepped everything to do the googlifier install and tried it first with no downgrade. The process got stuck at opening the purple / blue big G icon. Basically this meant I needed to roll back the firmware. I did so using HSuite proxy and the firmfinder link and used the 3 versions I mentioned before specific for ELS-N39, c636 r1. I just hoped it didn't brick my phone! Anyway, roll back took a while to finish but was successful. Installing gms wasn't so straight forward. In the translated steps I got stuck at around the step 30s where Google store and contact syncs should behave a certain way between resetting the phone. I think the written steps missed out a few lines where you not only need to force close Google services framework and delete data, you have to do this with a few other Google services too before resetting the phone. Finally got Google play to work with no warnings. One issue is that I've lost Google Contact Sync. Probably because I had to repeat some steps...
Hello, i've just got a Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX1 with EMUI 9.1.0.381 from a friend. It's my first Huawei and since i am usually running my phones with custom roms, i want to install a custom rom to it. Usually i am trying to get phones that have a reasonable unlock process but this was a gift and i thought it should be possible to install something anyways.
After spending hours into this and reading allot of posts on this forum, i am not eager to open up the hardware and go this potatoe way. I've watches some Youtube videos about the process and i am not sure, if i can manage to get the phone back together. So i was trying the other way with downgrading EMUI to 8 using dload method in order to run dc-unlocker. But somehow i am unable to do so. I am always ending up with "incompatibility with current version" error. I've tried using the dailer code menu, as well as the 3 buttons method. It's not working at all. I've tried multiple versions from androidhost.ru for this phone. There were no options to downgrade to any prior version using HiSuite as well.
Can someone help me to unlock the bootloader for my phone?

If the rollback option is not available with your HiSuite ("switch to the older version" or "Earlier version"), you must downgrade to the lower EMUI 9 build version number doing the dload method (flashing Service ROM ). What is your region? (Cxxx in build number).
Btw, it's impossible to downgrade to the lower EMUI version via dload method.
Hello, thanks for your reply. My current build number is C432E7R1P7. I think i figured that i should use C432 versions but i haven't thought about using another 9.x version and instead go straight to 8.x. Is any lower 9.x version ok?

On EMUI 8 (in order to run dc-unlocker) you need downgrade to .126:

With .126 you should be able to use dc or hcu-client .
Thanks, you've helped me allot! I've got it working and have the bootloader unlocked. Going forward, i was reading your LOS 17/18 thread. I could add a comment there but since we are writing here now, i am going to ask here:
I am still with EMUI 8. Is it actually needed to install another version of EMUI in order to install LineageOS? Isn't it possible to just install TWRP and go on from there?

LOS/LiR requires emui 9.1. Do not install the latest version, flash 9.1.0.200 via dload.

Last summer I bought a tablet from China, but since I am a Russian user, it is not convenient for me to use the tablet because of some parts of the interface in Chinese.
On the official Xiaomi website, I found only the Chinese version, but why would I reinstall what is already on the tablet.
Please help me find the global firmware for the tablet. I will be very grateful to you!
erroneous post
as I understand it, there are no firmware on tablets.
then another question. if I download the global firmware to a regular xiaomi mi pad 5, will it work and how will it affect the tablet?

NO it is not compitabel! You will brick it. If you have unlocked bootloader. And, Magisk root could maybe be required. Then you could take a look around for Treble gsi Roms. I like Crdroid. But best to test with pure aosp made by phh

Are you suggesting installing custom firmware? That's the only thing I understood in your message...

as I understand it, there are no firmware on tablets.
then another question. if I download the global firmware to a regular xiaomi mi pad 5, will it work and how will it affect the tablet?

Listen, what if I install a naked android? The one that came out last?
@skyneli
From reading many posts on XDA forum about Mi Pad Pro including 5G model, there is no Global firmware for the Pro model. Only Chinese firmware available. MIUI that comes with Chinese firmware will have English and Chinese languages only.
But as long as the firmware works well, you can flash GSI ROMs which is pure Android system with customizable features including all the languages.
Or you can wait longer for Custom ROMs that some developers may create for the community. If you are new to this, you can google tutorials of how to flash GSI ROMs on treble support devices.
FYI I bought Mi Pad Pro 5G Chinese model but not arrive yet. I have no done anything about this device yet.

Hello, consult. I have a "my pad 5 pro" with keyboard and pencil. in case of installing a "GSI ROM" will I be able to use the keyboard and the pencil?

@dnsco For bluetooth keyboard, yes you can still use it with GSI ROM. But magnetic and pencil, I don't think so. Because these 2 probably need system that supports or activates them.
Mine is Mi Pad 5 Pro 5G but don't have any other accessories like keyboard and pencil. So I have not tested them on GSI ROMs. But stay on MIUI original ROMs or custom ROMs that are made for your model is the best choice. I flashed GSI ROM on my device and got sound problems. So I returned to MIUI 13 A11 stable.
The Xiaomi pen doesn't work on any GSI. It's a massive drawback. I don't have the keyboard so I don't know... but my guess is the same pessimism.
