Check out the shared thread bellow it's about Mate 30 Pro, it explains how to get Google suits working on device. I've done it using this method on my work phone LIO-L29 (Mate 30 Pro, which comes without Google Services preinstalled) and it's all working (Gmail, Google account, Maps, Contacts). The Google apks i've downloaded via notebook from apkmirror, copied on my memory phone and then installed one by one (looked for apks i need into my VOG-L29). Didn't test any bank apps, because it's my work phone, but the users from that thread say it's working. Be advised that i did all of this after i updated my phone to latest firmware available and Factory Reset it.

Thread is here https://xdaforums.com/mate-30-pro/how-to/workaround-play-services-mate-30-pro-t4021941

Keep me posted with your results and hope i can help you with this info :highfive:

Later edit: Forgot to mention, you can't use Recovery option because it's a different device. Download and open the zip then extract the apks and install them on your device. Or you can use this app https://m.gearbest.com/blog/downloa...download-for-huawei-or-honor-smartphones-8403
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] luntan2007:
Thanks agian. This is what I am doing:

1 Back up my data

2 Factory reset the phone

3 Install Google apps following your instructions

I have Google Play Store, maps, youtube etc. now, got them installed when I was in China. I am not sure it is because the apps I got there had some part missing, or Google apps don't work with Huawei EMUI that well.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
As a tip, don't use oficial YouTube, use YouTube Vanced, it's an apk that has no ads and can be used in background. More info here and download here.

Give it a try and let me know how it work with installing again Google suite/core apps ?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adambrown:
This app can be used on my phone?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Yeap, can be used on any phone (nowadays they've made ONLY non root apks). I reccomend you to uninstall (remove using ADB commands) official Youtube app from device, then install Vanced Ytb using instructions from the site i've linked earlier.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] adambrown:
That was fast, friend! Didn't expect it to answer me so fast :D

Thanks for reply, i will do it. can you tell me how to remove it?

great job, i will give it a try!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] luntan2007:
Hello again,

I tried it as said above. the Gapps were installed successfully and worked well, except for one thing:

Location history in Google Maps doesn't work, this is the only reason I reinstalled the gapps. Perhaps that's because in EMUI the internal map app is Amaps (Baidu maps) instead of Google maps. Other than that, Google worked well. Don't know if this work on the coming P40?

Tried the vanced Youtube too. It worked very well. Thank you!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Too bad :(. Than it means that it's clear, on the Chinese versions of Huawei phones Google locations isn't working.

I'm glad because now you're using YouTube Vanced and got working all Google apps :) (with maybe a slightly better integration than before).

P40 line Will come the same as the Mate line, without Google services preinstalled. We will have to see what will get when they will release the P40 devices
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] luntan2007:
Thank you! I just bought a Samsung Note 10+ in Canada (dual sim) and it works fine but some details are not as good as Huawei, e.g. charging speed, fingerprint recoginition (supper slow), etc. Again Huawei P30 Pro is a great phone, how regretful it's not Google supported any more. I doubt P40 can work seamlessly with Google Apps.

I can see you are using VOG-L29, do you have location history on G maps?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Enjoy your Note 10+, m8. I had one too (work phone) and it's a great phone (i like the display and easy usage of One UI, but lacks fast charge, big battery lifetime and night shot photos vs P30 Pro) but dropped face down and asked for a replacement phone and got myself a Mate 30 Pro :).

To answer your question, YES, i have location history enabled on both devices (P30 Pro & Mate 30 Pro, but there are both European versions and lack any other chinese preinstalled map app or other like Baidu or stuffs. Think that this is the catch speaking of European firmware and chinese one).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Fox-V:
Hello,

I have the Huawei P30 Pro VOG-L04 C25 v9.1.0.272, my question is: I can try this method on the cell phone with the version published for "Huawei P30 PRO VOG-L04 C605 v10.0.0.178"?

Thank you!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8, you have 50%-50% chances of softbricking your device, so if this is your daily phone and don't have another one to replace it untill VOG-L04 C25 dload firmware will be available in order to revive it (in case it gets softbricked), i won't try flashing EMUI 10 VOG-L04 C605 version.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Fox-V:
Uhhhh I pass...

Thank You!
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
That's the best choice ?. Better wait for official OTA or HiSuite or chech using eRecovery for new update, it's safer. If dload firmware will be available, it will be posted on OP ?.

Hi SilviuO, I have VOG-L04 actually on firmware 10.0.0.178 (C212E7R1P3). Can I flash it: Huawei P30 PRO VOG-L04 C605 v10.0.0.178

Thanks in advance.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8,

If you have C212 as your cust, NO, don't flash C605, you will end up with a softbricked device waiting for a VOG-L04 C212 dload firmware release in order to revive your phone :rolleyes:

On EMUI 10 since beta & pre-release firmwares, flashing dload firmwares with another cust than your device has ends up with softbrick.

Hi,

Just for info, I received an update for emui 10 to 10.0.0.186 C431E19R2P5 with the patch 1 jenuary 2020.

I'm in Italy with a French device.

I don't understand why I flashed your rom and received the update, my wife received the update to emui 10 with OTA and has not yet received the update with the new patch
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8, that's an interesting one :). Usually, the update comes in batches, after the SN/IMEI is whitelisted on Huawei update servers. It's strange because you didn't get EMUI 10 OTA but you've got the update before your other EMUI 10 OTA updated device :rolleyes:

i have VOG-L09 C431 v10.0.0.178 on my l04 c792 am i safe to assume that i can flash .186 over it, as i seen above you state not to flash a different cust

Thank You
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8, did you flashed using the method of flashing by renaming cust and preload, as explained here? If yes, i can't guarantee you it will work, it's a risk as the one you've assumed when using this method for the first time. I ussualy advice users to flash users their own cust, but if you're willing, you can try flashing using the same method. Keep in mind that there are no big improvements (aside January security patch) or firmware changes in this build vs the one you're on, v178.

If you decide to flash it, let other users (and me :D) know if it worked for you ;)

After one week's trial, I've decided to return my Note 10+ and buy a P30 Pro -L29:D:D:D

The note 10, while having its powerful features, does not work as nicely as the Huawei P30 Pro. Battery charge is long but does not last long. Even the camera app does not work well - it needs about .5 second before you can take the next photo.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Good to have you back :silly:.

What version&cust you're on now? Did you flashed the latest firmware from OP?

Yeah, Huawei Mate 20 Pro/P30 Pro vs Samsung S10+/Note 10+ has (untill you decide to go for S20 line) better life battery time, fast charge, better optimised software :).
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] luntan2007:
I am using the stock L29 firmware and upgraded to EMUI 10 now (automatic push). Wanted to be able to use Google Pay so didn't unroot. I've used 4 Huawei phones and never felt the urge to flash customized firmware as I did with Samsung phones.
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Great, you'got it OTA.

Anyway, on Huawei you can't unlock booloader in order to get root, so you're stuck with stock firmware, as we all are :D. On Samsung, yes, you can unlock booloader, root, flash TWRP and get a lot of custom firmwares :).

I got used with Huawei, so i will stick with them untill someone shows me a better optimised firmware (EMUI) and a greater battery life :D.

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
So as i can see, you're on EMUI 9.1 and you have a chinese version of Mate 20. Let me check for info about how may i help you (if you can flash the OTA using Fastboot or if there some paid service who can get your device working). If it was an international version and had dload firmware, it was easier.

Did you try using HiSuite PC to recover your device? (using the Recovery from right side, bellow) ot have you entered eRecovery to see if it works?
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] oslo83:
Use an exfat USB-OTG flashdrive and a correct dload package for your device.

In your case, use 'HMA-AL00 10.0.0.188(C00E74R3P8)_Firmware_EMUI10.0.0_05015TED.zip'.

Tutorial explicado en ESPAÑOL

LEER TODO POR FAVOR

Descargan el firmware que gusten ubicados en el principio del hilo.

Tener una USB FORMATEADA en EXFAT

colocar los 3 archivos del firmware en la USB dentro de la carpeta dload, si no la tienen la crean

Renombrar los archivos cust y preload son los que tienen el nombre largo, cambiando donde dice "hw" y "la" por los que corresponden a su móvil, pueden instalar el firmware que deseen, solo tienen que renombrar, OJO, si no renombran los archivos pueden causar Softbrick, esto se soluciona renombrado los archivos como indique anteriormente,

para los que no saben que tienen que poner , donde esta lo de color rojo ( ver imagen) , claro, telcel, hw ---- la, eu,,, etc marca este código *#*#2846579#*#* saldrá un menú, le dan en network information query, y vendor country info, ahí saldrá vendor y country, donde vendor es lo que tienen que poner en hw o dejarlo así, y country es lo que tienen poner ya sea, la, eu, etc o dejar así (ver imagen)

Pará emui 9.1, apagan el móvil conectan la USB, mantienen los botones de subir, bajar y encender a la vez sin soltar, hasta que empiece actualizar y listo

Pará emui 10, apagan el móvil conectan la USB mantienen los botones de subir volumen y encender a la vez hasta que salga el menú, dan en modo de actualización, y USB otg, esperan y listo, acá les dejo el tutorial en VIDEO

[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Hi m8, If you didn't receive through normal OTA or HiSuite PC n'or by eRecovery, The only method you have is by flashing dload firmware for your VOG-L29 C431 device (if i recall right about your phone's SS :D). You know that this method will clear data on your phone, so backup before, remove your Google account, reset (or not) and flash bellow firmware, as you did before :highfive:

[TEST] dload firmware for VOG-L29 C819 DEMO units

[MENTION=7423268]Kingess[/MENTION], [MENTION=10103304]Dreamscythe[/MENTION], [MENTION=1673910]arian2000[/MENTION] guys,

OK, SO let's go testing. HERE is the link with test firmware which is based on EMUI 10 v10.0.0.178 VOG-L29 C431. Inside test6.zip you will find dload folder with update zip and other 2 files (cust and preload) named the same as your device, but whith different custs and preload + vendor_transfer.xml.

OFFLINE, not working

FIRST TIME, DO THIS: flash dload folder from demo test6.zip + factory reset + wipe cache + dload folder from demo test.zip again and see if it works.

If first method is not working, do as i write bellow:

1. extract dload folder on your desktop from the test6.zip you've downloaded - there will be 3 zip files inside it - :

update_sd_base.zip

update_sd_cust_VOG-L29_demo_la.zip

update_sd_preload_VOG-L29_demo_la_R2.zip

2. Copy the dload folder with all 3 zips inside on to a USB drive

3. Get to eRecovery (Volume UP + Power)

4. Select Software Update

5. Select USB-OTG Update

6. The first file (update_sd_base.zip) will install and then the phone will restart

7. Unplug the USB from the phone and on your desktop rename the update_sd_base.zip to anything else

8. Then rename update_sd_preload_VOG-L29_demo_la_R2.zip to update_sd_base.zip

9. Insert back the USB into the phone and boot to eRecovery again, following steps 3-6

10. Unplug the USB from the phone and on your desktop rename the update_sd_base.zip to anything else

11. Then rename update_sd_cust_VOG-L29_demo_la.zip to update_sd_base.zip

12. Insert back the USB into the phone and boot to eRecovery again, following steps 3-6

Good luck on reviving your phones and please report back if any of those worked.

That's why there are two zips :). One with eeawe_demo and one with _demo_la, for both 819 & 891. Now it depends if one of those methods works or indeed we will have to wait for a C432 final dload version or even an demo dload version, as it was v158D for EMUI 9.1 :rolleyes:

Hi Silviuo. If i download c431 10.0.0.186 firmware and rename the 2 zip according to my

ventor it will work for C675;
[Huawei P30 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SilviuO:
Just wait a few more days. For C675 i guess it will be version 189, as is shown on FF, so i will stay for a whille.

It's kinda tricky to try this on a C675, because you might get softbrick. The method he explained was used by many other users before him and worked on VOG-L04 devices using L09 firmware, but they need to flash the VOG-L04 dload firmware when it will appear in order to get OTA or other updates. For more info, see this thread bellow
