[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] Luxon:
Howdy,

I've got a AL-00, and it has built-in Google Play Services version 20.04.14 (120408-294335909). I've grabbed an APK of Google Play Market version 16.2.25-all [0] [PR] 263465627 from ApkMirror. That's a 32-bit universal architecture image listed as armeabi + armeabi-v7a + mips + mips64 + x86 + x86_64.

I know, that's quite an old version, but it the only I've tried that worked stable. For some reason, all other packages that I've tried over at ApkMirror were classified by package installer as not having passed verification in Huawei Appgallery. Could it be that these packages were tampered with? Or does it only mean that their checksums (or root root certificate?) were not present in ApkGallery?

My internet and my cell provider are having problems with Google services. If I open Google.com from any of my devices, Google.com raises CAPTCHA test which I have to pass before I'm able to access Google search.

All Google apps that I've installed by using the Google Play Store that was installed from the APK dl'ed from ApkMirror are having problems connecting to Google Services. Some apps like Google Pay are having problems to start, others, like Google Chrome or Google Maps are having issues with synchronization of my Google account. If I open account profile, from any of the Google apps, I get the cloud icon shown indicating that Google services or servers are not reachable.

However. These connectivity issues I only experience when connecting though one specific mobile provider. If I route the Huawei EVR-AL00 phone via shared connection from another cellular provider, I can open Google.com in the browser without having to solve CAPTCHAsl tests, and I don't experience connectivity and synchronization issues with Google apps on Huawei EVR-AL00.

So far I see it so I could've solved my synchronization issues by simply switching from my current cell provider that get filtered by Google to another one. Meanwhile, it looks like I could've stayed with my current blacklisted provider if I could find a proper untouched APK of Google Play Store that fully matches version of Google Play Services shipped with EVR-AL00. Where do I get the properly signed APK of Google Play Store with version and architecture matching those used in built-in Google Play Services and Google Services Framework?

Why do I feel that using non-genuine Google Play Store may be the root cause? If I use one of my non-Huawei phones and connect through this my blacklisted provider, I DON'T EVER get a CAPTCHA from Google if I type search requests right in the Chrome address bar without opening Google.com first. Quite the contrary, if I open Google.com first, I ALWAYS get CAPTCHA test from Google before I can do my searches. It looks like requests sent from the Google device (that's a device with a clean Android) are somehow signed by Google components before they get sent to Google.

Since I'm using non-genuine Google Pay Store (installed from unsigned? self-signed? APK), I suppose that Google treats every connection request

to Google servers issues from my Huawei EVR-AL00 phone as untrusted. That renders my Google apps to fail to connect and as a result I get account synchronization issues.

I expect if I could a proper signed Google Play Store APK that matches Google Play Services shipped with the Huawei phone, this would've solved connectivity issues and fix sync problems for me.

Thank you in advance.
