Hi. I saw online others with P30's and mate 20's getting updates in the US by; Changing region on phone or hicare (support app), but more commonly using a CHINA SIM CARD.

I have not found any P40 posts, so I bought a China sim card. amazon.com/gp/product/B00YILRXKM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It did not work for me. My model P40 Pro ELS-NX9. (other models ELS-AN00, ELS-TN00 (China) ELS-N04 (Global))

I read of others who just inserted the sim card and waited 10 minutes while connect to wifi who got the update (p30/mate20). That did not work, so I even tried changing my region in my phone settings and the hicare (support app) to Hong Kong and even United Kingdom. The China sim card and changing to 2 other regions did not work.

My EMUI software version 10.1.0.122 as of 5/27/20.

Version .122 has been available in China since April 20th and version .123, .124, .126, .127, .131 have been released from April 27 - May 20 for ANA-AN00 & ANA-TN00 models. .huaweiupdate.com/huawei-p40-getting-the-latest-emui-10-1-0-131-update/

I saw a global version emui update (ELS-N04 (Global)) for .123 or .124 but can not find the source again.

TLDR; China Sim and region changing did not work for any of the 5 updates currently available in China with my P40 Pro ELS-NX9 model emui .122. I will try a few more times and try to update this. (any ideas??, or anyone try with the global model, please message below)

EDIT................. CHINA SIM DID NOT WORK for EMUI update on Huawei P40 Pro (may try again in the future).

USA got .134 last night on C636 ELS-NX9 model. (sadly it wasn't 135 for the optimize scene focus/battery)

For the past week I have been trying to; change regions, use a China Sim card, and using hisuite on PC. None of it worked. I enabled auto update over night a few days ago and then last night 1am June 12 it just popped up normally.
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Terra1:
I'm also model ELS-N04 on .122 in Australia.

So what region are we?

[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Chrisminmax:
GSMarena lists that as ELS-N04 (Global), so Global version. I have the ELS-NX9 which my ebay seller had listed as the EU/UK version (uk charger).

So the AN00 and TN00 (China) gets updates 1st. Then I guess N04 Global (according to a global update post I can't find anymore), and lastly NX9 (EU/UK?). We are still 5 updates behind! and they are all camera updates : (

Sorry I meant to say ELS-NX9 and I was told it was AU version

Sent From My P40 Pro
[Huawei P40 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Chrisminmax:
I went to the Huawei au site support and found the els-nx9 model but

consumer.huawei.com/au/support/phones/p40-pro/

But then I clicked the buy option, then went to au Amazon and found model #ELS-N29

amazon.com.au/Huawei-ELS-N29-P40-Silver-Frost/dp/B086HXDGYB?ref_=ast_sto_dp

So maybe there is a specific au model but gsmarena doesn't list it. Maybe the Amazon listing model number is wrong and nx9 covers both au and eu/uk.

Check any of the other threads and look for Magisk.img. and adb flash that at bootloader screen. That's it.

There is no TWRP yet. You'll have to make use of adb flashing boot imgs. and flashing apps for phones lacking custom recoveries like Flashify or Ex Kernel.

[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
Hi guys

I just got huawei p40 pro today and installed GMS manually. My discord doesn't produce any notifications. Can I install microG alongside GMS to get it working?

Thanks
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
i think you have to icebox your GMS to get notifications .. search some other threads here
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] CALISTHRONE:
Yes you can.

When I got my P40 Pro I installed Micro-G just for YouTube Vanced. A week later I decided to install GMS and kept the Micro-G on the device. No issues found after combining Micro-G with GMS whatsoever.

BTW I didn't try to install the official YouTube app as I'm more satisfied with Vanced.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] Tmel14:
Does Micro-G help purely for notifications or could it help apps that require Google services to work?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] CALISTHRONE:
No, Micro-G will not allow you to run Google-Dependant apps. You need to install GMS for that. Which is very easy in case you are curious.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
I can't install microG, it says I already have the latest version. The only thing I did was installing Google services and play store.

What should I do to get push notifications working? My banking app relies on firebase ?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] CALISTHRONE:
For the Micro-G issues I honestly don't know. For me I installed Micro-G first and then GMS. But I remember when I tried to install YouTube Vanced it didnt run, meaning that Micro-G installation was not successful. I seached the web and the solution was deleting Mkcro-G and then installing SAI (Split APKs Installer) from APK-Pure and then re-installing Micro-G. Then YouTube Vanced worked so I know now that Micro-G is working fine. ----> try this it may work.

For your second issue about the push notifications, Firebase is a Google-Cloud massaging service. And it will have the same problem as other Google push notifications such as Gmail. There is a solution on xda I previously read but I can't find the thread. Try searching it.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
Options:

HMS-naked (broken notifications on heaps of apps even Huawei App Gallery)

HMS+microG (for notifications with google firebase cloud messaging)

HMS+GMS (notifications broken)

HMS+GMS+icebox (freeze google play store as required for notifications and unfreeze intermittently for updating apps)

I think it is called icebox (just from memory .. or something similar) .. just search in the recent threads and you will find the process to freeze & unfreeze GMS to get notifications working.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
This is awesome explanation. Thank you so much, I will have a look tonight
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
I just found out icebox requires all my account to be removed first. I will wait this weekend first

My understanding is

1. Install Icebox before you put anything. It requires ADB and you need to remove your Google Accounts beforehand.

2. Install GMS

3. Disable GMS with Icebox

4. Install MicroG

5. Install all the apps that you want. Make sure you have microG first before installing apps
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
can you post the link to this new process?

are you developing something new .. i have never heard of this combination before ...

HMS+GMS+Icebox+microG

why install microG if you are using GMS+Icebox? the purpose of Icebox is to give notifications, then you dont need microG.

if you really want the google play store, I really wouldn't bother with the P40 Pro.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
No I'm not developing anything new ? I'm trying to get the best of both worlds.

This GMS installation mod seems to be using microG underneath bcuz I got the message from the official microG app that my microG is already the latest version. I got the Vanced microG version installed without any need for icebox. But push notifications still doesn't work.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
I haven't read of anyone successful achieving this before... Are you planning to rewrite some code of microG or can you solve with installation techniques?

If you have time to spare, then good luck trying
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
but why wouldn't you just say what the solution is? as you just said the solution above ... i.e. either (1) install microG or (2) freeze GMS

were you only talking about microG for youtube vanced? I think the other guy is talking about a microG install for google firebase cloud messaging .. so you're both mixed up trying to solve different problems.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] CALISTHRONE:
OK sorry.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
All good guys. Thanks, yeah MicroG vanced version didn't help me with my push notification issue.

but linux2525 pointed me to the right direction

1. HMS + GMS + Icebox. <-- At least I got my Banking app working now with Google Push notification. I think the next time I reset my PC, I would go with HMS + MicroG instead. I dont play games and mostly just Youtube, Spotify and Instagram only.

Also my whatsapp Google Drive backup still working with this combination :D *I'm backing up 3GB to my drive
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] Tmel14:
Interesting, I'm looking at installing GMS as I have a variety of apps that won't work without Google. What makes you say you'd go without GMS next time? Are notifications working well across apss for you with Icebox?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
just out of interest .. which apps were those? i am curious to test on my p40 pro.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] Tmel14:
YouTube Music (technically works but can't seem to add an account)

The Atheltic

Paddy Power

Betfair

eBay

There were some others as well but can't think off the top of my head. Some of those I can use the websites instead of apps but often they aren't as user friendly.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
YTMusic .. works great on firefox preview .. except a major problem .. cannot download.

eBay is not great in browser :(
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] bitbis:
Bumping on initial request wich is "Can I install microG along with GMS?"

I have tried several setups but I can't get all needed features in any combination. HMS+GMS+icebox+microg may be the solution.

What I need :

- Common apps Working (Banking, Productivity/Work, Messaging: discord/messenger/Whatsapp, Google: Gmail/Maps/Contacts sync)

- Push notifications

- Geolocation

Note: I don't need Play store at all, Aurora is good enough

Let's sum up my tries :

HMS+microg => got push notification on a few apps but most are not working due to the signature check (which is impossible to spoof without unlocking bootloader). Some apps requiring valid gms are even not launching at all.

HMS+GMS (firlando's latest method) => Everything working except push notifications

HMS+GMS+Icebox => Everything working incl. Push notifications but no play store and geolocation is not working.

This last try is the closest to my need but I'm still looking to a solution to enable geolocation.

So I'm looking at a possibility to use microg as the geolocation service, on top of HMS+GMS+Icebox. But I don't know if it's possible to achieve.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
HMS+microG = guess it depends on your apps .. microG worked for me for push notifications for everything except Skype was a bit glitchy.

Which apps are you having problems with when using microG?

What does geolocation do and how do i test?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] bitbis:
As far as i remember Protonmail, Discord, Slack, Basecamp 3, Gmail, and my banking apps were not working properly (no push notification or not working at all).

I gave up before testing other apps (Train & Metro, Food delivery,...) but I'm pretty sure they are not all working.

the key point for me is to be able to get any app without alternative working for sure and to have push notifications for the messaging ones.

frozen gms is the more reliable way to get All apps working with push notification.

Geolocation is location service wich allow you to get your position. it is used in map/navigation, food delivery, local services search, and even your browser. with frozen gms, you get no position at all.

You can test it with google maps or searching html5 geolocation tester on the web
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
I'm not sure what you mean by geolocation? My Google maps is working fine no issue at all with HMS+GMS+icebox

Any particular app that you are having issue with?

I've tried über, Google maps, and some other public transportation apps in Germany and it's working fine

My rough guess is that you didn't allow the app to have access to the GPS.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
Have you checked this area?

It's also possible that you might have messed up something during the GMS installation. I did check my GPS before I completed my gms installation
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] linux2525:
My GPS is working fine with HMS+GMS+Icebox,

Protonmail notifications work fine with GMS+Icebox ... they do not work with microG ... I spent hours testing to get to this conclusion.

I am using Gmail with the yahoo mail app .. it is a very nice app!
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] bitbis:
Yes, everything is enabled :

- Geolocation is enabled

- Apps have autorisation, just like your screenshot (tested both modes)

- Tested with several combianations of advanced parameters (wifi and bluetooth search), including both disabled

The behavior in Apps and Browser is not an error message but an infinite loading of the position, just like if the geolocation service was frozen ...

If I disable geolocation (but keep autorisation) I get a message from apps and browser instead.

One thing to notice is that I finally got my position once (I can't reproduce), after keeping app opened during a very long time, but with a very low precision (more than 50m of error) and it seemed it was not refreshed over time.

It may come from my setup of GMS. I used Firlando's latest method which ends with everything working without any Play protect notifications (but no push notifications).

And then I Froze Google Framework Services with Icebox.

Maybe I should use a different method (LZPlay ?)

Which one do you used ?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
I followed this guy for the GMS, I think it's basically the same with all other guides? And then I followed the simple adb for icebox gsf

https://youtu.be/fEBXAOCin2E
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] bitbis:
I made some more tests.

If I unfreeze GSF, I get geolocation working back.

After refreezing, geolocation is back with infinite loading behavior.

Also, I noticed that in the registered location services, I have both google one and huawei one

[IMG="Screenshot"]https://i.ibb.co/7tbsn7Q/Screenshot-20200713-181444.png[/IMG]

When GSF is frozen I cannot toggle on/off the google one (the switch does nothing).

When GSF is unfrozen I noticed that toggling google service on improve location precision (So the google location service is used instead of Huawei one ?)

Do you have such google location services ?

---------- Post added at 07:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:40 PM ----------

The method I used is similar but the versions of installed services may differ.

Do you have all google apps excep Play store working with this method (Maps, Gmail, Contacts, Agenda) ?
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
With my GMS HMS icebox

Gmaps and other maps are working fine. Including navigation and geolocation. Even my Google map bookmarks are stored properly

Gmail I don't use it, I rarely use Gmail. That's why I installed outlook and map it there instead

Contacts, and Google calendar are working fine. Including the reminder events.

I couldn't get hey Google enabled, I assume it is got something to do with freezing my GSF. However hey Google is working fine if I open the app manually and says the word.

Google translate is working fine except for image recognition. Using camera and text are fine. Is just doesn't work with saved picture.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
Maybe for my case, it's using huawei for geolocation.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] bitbis:
Can you tell me what geolocation services you have in Settings > Geolocation data > Location services ? And with what settings (enabled or not, when you click on it).

Today I reset my phone and reinstalled GMS + Icebox and I still get frozen geolocation at the end.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
I have no clue what you mean by geolocation. Is this a translation issue? I have uploaded my screenshot below
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] bitbis:
Yes it's a translation issue. Dry. In French we made it more precise by prepending the geo prefix, I though it was coming from English, my bad.

So my question is about your location services. Shown in the next section of this screen (bellow last location requests).

On my side I have both the default service from Huawei and the some services from Google which are installed with Google play services. There is one which provide wifi and cell tower geolocation which is frozen with GSF.

I noticed that this service "appears" only at the last step of gms install (when installing GMS Core mod C).

So I'm wondering if you have it, and if it is enabled). Or if it may come from wifi updates or whatever.
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] blue_panther9_9:
I'm not sure either but this is my screenshot

Hi, I have GMS installed on my Chinese Mate 30 Pro 5G.

The issue is I haven't push notifications.

According I read your post ... can I freeze and then unfreeze Google Services Framework in order to get notifications push, and later using Play Store ??

Or maybe if I freeze GSF then I must repeat all the process to reinstall GMS on my Mate 30 Pro ??
[Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers] addx972:
me when I unfreezed I had lots of error message and impossible to put the old Framework I had to reset my tel again

personally I advise you not to freeze it and then thaw it

Just wondering if any of you have an extended battery cover you could measure for me. I was sent an incorrect one, but the battery is the same so I am looking for just an extended cover. boxwave has one however I am unsure if it will fit the 2250mAh Cameron Sino one as the battery they sell is ElectroSpan and only 2000mAh.

Thanks.
[HTC Vox] birdibird:
I got also the wrong cover (for the dash) when I ordered the 2250 battery

on ebay. But after contacting the seller they apologized and sent the correct cover! So maybe try also :)
[HTC Vox] h4waii:
I contacted them and they are refusing to send a different one. I've e-mail BoxWave about theirs and I have the dimensions. Can you measure yours for me so I can make sure it'll fit?

I do believe the BoxWave one also has the soft touch feel.

Thanks birdibird

P.S - here are the ones from BoxWave.

9.8mm deep

68.7mm long

46.8mm across

Please note that these dimensions are for the entire cover and not only the extended portion.
[HTC Vox] birdibird:
ai, that's bad luck!

mine also has soft touch. These are the dimensions:

I devided it in lower and upper part. lower is the part which is connected to the phone, upper is the extra hight.

lower upper (cm)

width:

4,8 4,4

length (it curves up, I measured the top):

6,75 5,0

hight:

looks kinda the same, I cannot measure here that precise ;)

Did u manage to order that one, and does it fit? :)
