Google play Huawei p40 pro

All the apps that I have installed are working including chrome with all my saved passwords. It's just the stupid notifications that I keep recieving every 2 seconds have you tried using aurora store it seems very decent haven't had a single issue with apps from them . Any Google LLC app is a pain so Gmail, youtube, chrome, maps, Google pay etc . Is there no way you can fully flash the device and put Google on that way as its running Android 10 already with emui software instead ?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] DTBrum:
I was aware of the issue before I purchased my P40 Pro last week. I have managed to clone everything across from my old phone that I needed and have also found some alternatives for Google apps that work pretty well. I have several alternative App stores installed, including yesterday Aurora (not had much of a play with it yet.) If you miss Gmail give Blue Mail a go. It will link with your Gmail account and give you email notifications.

I don't think you can fully flash the device as the bootloader is locked.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] terrance511:
sad, was able to use gms until i changed my gmail password and poof everything gone.. now i cant get it back even after hard reset and redo everything.

"login cant communicate google" problem. this just happen 1 day after i change my password, was wondering if i reset ealier, would i successfully install it.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] stongest:
I've tried everything as well. Downgraded to .136 and tried a few times, then downgraded to .133 and tried a lot of time. No luck yet.

Also have a P40 Pro.

I'm going to keep trying because I heard that sometimes you just need to do that then it works.. I'll let you know if I have any success.

What I might do is create a new google account so I don't mess around with my main one too much.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] samm450:
hi guys, i cant make game purchases now. it says you should submit google account before purchase. everything other is working flawless. even whatsapp is making backup in gmail drive too. Any idea how to make it possible.

BTW i got update from 131 to 158 in KSA some days ago and i updated. no issues at all after update.:p
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] samm450:
No thats not possible. i think try other tutorials and install it. i did not follow all the process and did to step 4. everything is fine.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] damiaan1234:
when was this? today? and what tutorial did you use
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] dragobette98:
Be more explicit: have you succeeded in installing GMS today? Have you followed some specific tutorial? What do you mean by step 4?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bvannier:
Got it prefectly working!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=58&v=lYOU_YxrHhc&feature=emb_logo

new link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fTIZFehwlw

Downgrade first on .131

Then follow step by step. I also after succeding GMS, update to 1.01.0.154 (C432E8R5P2)

Have a good day
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] p82maarj:
hello,

Only for confirmation. Did you add the Google account today or yesterday?

It is reported that the last method (that video is from an old method), it is not possible to add google account since yesterday.

thanks
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bvannier:
No, I did the modification a month ago...

Good luck

MAYBE.... this new link from the same person? : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fTIZFehwlw

Ho to downgrade to 131? I have P40pro plus and cannot downgrade through hisuite
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] wyred4sound:
The current process won't work regardless. Wait until there's a new method to install GMS.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Levi941127:
any hope?

Is there any chance for someone coming up with a new method? I read somewhere that Google has cut off the browser sign-in possibility, so I kinda feel like this was it :crying:
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
This is maybe temporary. I highly doubt this is just because of Huawei. There's still many older phones in use.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] tm001:
I bought my phone (p40 pro) 3days ago and now cannot install GMS :( Is there any information when we can expect to see new working method?

[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] muj123:

And install APKPure or Aurora Store.

You don't even need GMS

But i cant log in to google account through this(MicroG)
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jesus4android:
Looks like since the 13th of September no one is being able to log into their Google accounts from banned Huawei devices (except Mediapad M6 users, apparently).

Is there any method, no matter how radical, to get GMS and Gapps fully operational (even if it involves rooting the device)? Thx in advance
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] thanito:
Root is not an option with locked bootloader.

Now coming back to my initial question: Is there a solution to root and eventually install GMS if I have a P40 Pro with unlocked bootloader?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
I'm almost certain that Google did this on purpose. This happened day after HDC, where Huawei barely mentioned Android. They are now Harmony OS oriented because of the ban.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bvannier:

Any prove to your unlocked bootloader ?

[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sarishikh:
I have given up on P40 Pro and will be using my P30 Pro until I move to another brand. I am not sure yet which phone to get to replace my P40 Pro. I am waiting on Xiaomi's announcement of Mi 10T Pro, or I will get the Sony Xperia 5 II.

I no longer receive notifications, except Instagram which works 95% of the time, everything else doesn't work.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] bvannier:
Bla bla bla... No comment, no explaination how to... impossible so far
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
I don't have this problem. Everything works. I use BlueMail as email client. Also, Viber notifications are working when app is running in the background. WhatsApp also works. Facebook, Instagram..
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] sarishikh:
It worked fine for me too at the beginning except for gmail, but it has since stopped working. Maybe once a day I get all the notification at once if I open an app that I don't often use which will trigger a flood of notifications.

I have also tried the various methods including freezing the gms framework as is right now and also the other methods, but they all have worked fine initially but after a week or so started to fail.

It is such a shame because I love P40 Pro, aside from notification issues the best phone I have had so far.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
Maybe freezing GMS framework was causing this. I have never done this.

Maybe freezing GMS framework is causing this. I have never done this.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
i am wondering why nobody is working on the solution? because here are a lot of pros or not? Wit a Network Sniffer, the small traffic from the needed apps must be analyzed and i think (maybe i am wrong, not sure) there is a header like "huawei xxxxxx" (xxx is the modell) who google send an "NOK" (No ok) and so the login/add account dont work (no connection to google account) if than anybody make a new app or reverse engine the current app and search for the header variable and modify them (like to change the Device ID (Huawei XXXX to anything other) . i dont unterstand why nobody try this, its possible to add google account on a VMOS but not on "modified Huawei Phones"
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
It's not that simple this time. VMOS is a virtual machine. You can install what you want inside. Unfortunately, this time, I don't see any way to overcome this issue.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] damiaan1234:
if we need to use the build in browser, then maybe we need a modified version of the huawei browser app.

i'm just throwing out an idea i had, don't know if its even possible
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jesus4android:
Either a modified version of the default browser, or perhaps adding a man-in-the-middle using something like Mitmproxy?

Also throwing out ideas, as I'm no expert and I currently don't have the time to do it myself, unfortunately

---------- Post added at 11:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:27 AM ----------

Have someone tried logging in with App passwords? I can't do it now since I've updated the OS and now I get the lz play error, I'd need to downgrade to try myself
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
Why is it not simple ? What is the Problem? Is the scoure code encrypted and can not be decrypted? Is any header hardcoded and can not be modified or overwritten? Is there any special type of Server (or IP) needed which is actually down? Questions , Questions and more Question. Where are the dev who can help and says more about the issue?
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
No one will try to fix something like this. Embrace the situation or buy another phone. Or pray that Google will enable browser sign-in again.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
Bull****. WHY no one will try to fix it? Can you tell the reasons or only trolling and bla bla bla
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
Behind browser sign-in is one of google services. If Google don't allow you to sign-in as Huawei's user, there is no much you can do. It would be possible with unlocked bootloader. But, Huawei will not give you this opportunity. If you want to modify browser request and try to trick Google, good luck.

[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
you dont read my previous posts.....
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
I read your post. And it makes sense and sounds simple. But, it's Google. How do you expect to trick them? You can try, but don't believe it's worth trying.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
its not google..the question is: is the attribute how google identify it as "Huawei" Phone, hardcorded or not and can this be modified or tricked on the NON Google Side..i think yes, but i am not a dev..thats a job for the pros...but it looks like, that theres no prof. dev, only "pros and dev which can work with ready to go dev kits" But theres needed a real professionale developer...
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
You can try with some Google certified Huawei phone and compare headers.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
i am not a prof and not a dev...i only wondering why nobody do anything, check the headers, the request, the answers (with a network sniffer)...reverse engine the lzplay app and more..i dont have the skills..but a lot of another people any i really asking for the technical details why nobody do anything.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
Sorry, i do not plan to investigate this. My daily job is enough. I have projects with deadlines, so don't have time for this. Also, developers are rarely on Huawei forums because of locked bootloader. This obstacle cannot be skipped. And they don't have inspiration for work. They mostly work with rooted phones.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
It was not a request to you, but a general question why nobody analyzes the apps, the traffic and everything that goes with it and then develops a new solution. All previous solutions were only simple modular dev solutions and bumbling.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
Look at my edited previous response.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] optzeci:
Please develop how it would be possible with unlocked bootloader
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] matzedin:
Its not limited to the huawei forum here..theres a lot of Huawei User around the world, theres a lot of Developers around the world...It should be more of a challenge to fix it without root than with root. Real men work and not kiddy programming!

be sure: if we launch a crowdfunding and raising 250.000 EUR for a Developer who make this job, theres many developer try this than!
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
Also, for this kind of work, you don't need a developer. You need a hacker. Especially if header content is encrypted.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] milan982:
Here you go

https://developer.android.com/training/id-auth/authenticate

https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/native-app

Google uses OAuth2 protocol for authentication. Huawei also.

For an application that accesses a third-party service, the security problem is even more complicated. Not only does the user need to be authenticated to access the service, but the application also needs to be authorized to act on the user's behalf.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] petel979:
Besides this barren discussion...

I know almost nothing about programming but I'm thinking about buying an P40 Pro, as it has one of the better cameras on mobile phones and it's pretty affordable.

I understand that at the date there is no way to install GMS, isn't it?. I also understood that micro G is another option other than GMS, but you cannot login there with your Google account so in fact it doesn't work. I'm wrong?

If I use Aurora as appstore... Will I find working Google apps? Will they work (notifications included)? What about Netflix? Does chromecast works?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I tried to post whole answer a couple of times, but this app wont let me. Bottom line, your gmail account is not the problem, Huawei browser is as an app. Simple solution wolud be changing ROM code to use another browser instead.

---------- Post added at 06:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:49 AM ----------

For Google apps to work you need Google services. There is no another way. Phone itself is fantastic. You can still access google services via browser and create shortcuts.

[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] becarval:
Hi, folks. I currently own a P40 Lite for more than 6 months and yesterday I accidentally changed my main Google Account's password via browser, which crashed Google Services for it. Luckily I have 2 accounts on my phone, so I did not break it entirely. I was reading about this new Google authentication and Linking Service and I had an idea. It seems to me that this linking system lets a Google Account use another Google Account's credential via authentication token to access services on their behalf. For example, account A links to account B and gives access to it. Account B uses its credentials to access account A's content. Did I get this right? If I got this right, maybe I can bypass my problem with this new method until a new hack method comes in?

This worked for me today! Had. to try a few times

If anyone is finding that after all the steps your keep getting the error message notifications here is what I did after to get it working.

- Follow the video step by step to the end, or when he starts installing GMAIL

- Go back to 16:05 of the video, and follow everyting from there again, but this time when get to the part where he says to install the file "2 - com..." from folder "SOLUCION ERRORES", install the 3rd one instead "3 - mod..."

- Reboot like he says

- After you reboot, it will look like it's working, but it's not

- Now just install file file in folder "PASO 6" - Do not uninstall google play services first this time

- Reboot again

- Now, it works! Or at least that worked for me :)

I have a P40 Pro on ver 133

Can i use this method on P40 pro plus?

Thank you in advance!

Please be sure to download the .zip file that has all the stuff needed to get this to work. Using this method, that zip file must be copied to the root a pen-drive. It's here, for Android 10: https://bit.ly/2ATWPGE

[UPDATE - 29 / June / 2020]

Important stuff:

- You must have your phone in english in order to proceed with this method.

- After it is complete you can switch back to your preferred language, without problems.

- If you want to add more Google accounts, you should do this procure while you are installing GMS. Use this link: https://youtu.be/jgCN6SeP32c?t=1418 It guides directly to the right moment in that video.

By the way, it's working great for a lot of users. Push notifications, though, aren't working.

Still, I believe this is the best method around.
