Well I may as well give it a shot since I don't mind wiping my tablet. I've never seen this sort of paywalling with other vendors, the most abhorrent so far has been sammobile with throttled (but still free) downloads :(
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] bisadoo:
I tried to downgrade to the BAH3-W09 10.1.0.108 (C00). but unfortunately without success. Today I will try again to downgrade to BAH3-W09 10.1.0.109D (C735). If this works, I'll report here.
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] bisadoo:
Both downgrades from April not worked on my matepad 10.4. The downgread from June worked but LZPly not worked with that Version.
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] Heartbreaking:
I'm assuming both April version is only for the Chinese version of matepad 10.4
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] randomhkkid:
Did you use the otg method for downgrading?

And would you be able to host the firmware files? Or pm me a link?
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] bisadoo:
I used the "Method 1" from this Post https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=83769467&postcount=3

Im sorry im not able to upload the files at the moment. But im pretty sure that both are the chinese Versions (BAH3-W09_all_cn).
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] randomhkkid:
Ah yeah it must be because they are for the China variant. Here's hoping there is an earlier firmware version floating around that is compatible!
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] Diens1:
Hi, did you tried to follow steps from EloyGomezTv? It is in spanish and youtube. He says it is possible his method with old versions.

I am in the newest version so is not working...

MRX-W09 is my matepad pro.
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] noolder:
Honestly I've seen so many videos claiming their 'method' will work and none do. Until I see someone actually performing it with success on a Matepad 10.4 in one of those vids I wont beleive them. They are all the same, they just want the views, and I'm done resetting my tablet if there is zero confirmation a method does work with it.

Thing is literally all of them require LZPlay to do the job, and we simply cant get past LZPlay. If that wont function then nothing else matters. And unfortunately it does look like Huawei never had that backdoor access LZPlay uses in the firmware for this model from the outset.

We will need someone clever to figure out a new method that does not rely on LZPlay or hope Huawei might restore google if the ban gets lifted. Any method that uses LZplay (and all of them do atm) will not work.
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] uerberman0815:
A lot is written about how LZPLAY works. Look here: https://www.androidcentral.com/hidden-apis-huawei-mate-30-allow-backdoor-install-google-apps

We need a firmware where the API is still present with the permissions still working. Version 10.1.0.108 should do the trick. Its regional code C00 stands for China (Global / International / All Country / Factory). That should be allright with the WIFI version of the tablet.

So how to get the firmware installed? We probably need to modify the hardware ID in the installation procedure. So please, can you find a way to upload firmware version 108?
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] Umadrab:
I was tired of waiting for a real solution, so I tried the VMOS trick... It's a piece of cake and it's almost perfect. What a relief to see all the Google Services and a perfectly working Playstore on my Matepad 10.4...

I'm still looking for a way to make this solution completely stealth by auto-launch the VMOS app right after boot.

How did you downgrade BAH3-W09 via OTG? Have you tried googlefier with build number 10.1.0.118?

Thank you
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] randomhkkid:
Just did the normal method of flashing via otg as described by OP. Googlefier doesn't work with 10.1.0.118, haven't been able to try the 2 build earlier than this.
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] Awd89:

i gave my matepad 1.4 BAH3-W09 to a vendor that usually hijack phones. he downgraded my pad to 108 however still no result. and he said that to get that firmware we have to pay some money, he asked ofr around USD 4.

I hope someone in near future can manage to get this tab a google. It's an overall good tab with one (major) flaw

[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] simone5138:
hey I'm new here, so hello everyone.

While i was watching around for a method to install play store, i found in the mate 40 pro forum a modified microg apk that includes also some vanced code, so that you can login to google with that fancy "huawei" button. i tried on my matelad 10.4, (BAH3-W09) and it works, kinda.

- google search app seems to work

- weather it's kinda buggy: it works, but does not recognise the registered account

- google apps (gmail,etc...) does not work because they cannot find google framework (but they do not crash instantaneusly, so it's a win :) )

- play store chrashes

tl;dr:the microG works, but it is in alpha stage, so, if you still wanna try it:

Hello guys!

I'm in the same shoes as most of you, bought a Huawei MatePad Pro (MRX-AL09) and in desperate need of Google Play services, which I hoped will be working on someday.

I've found this "dualspace" app, which I don't really know much about, what do you think of it?

Here is a video from Fonetech about it:

Hello everyone, by any means, does anyone know what's the stock firmware version for matepad 10.4 from Mexico? I lost the paper where I took the version before downgrading using the firmware from the googlefier post (10.1.0.118(C432E4R1P3)). Now I don't have OTA updates.

I really appreciate any help, thanks in advance.
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] m4rtinmp:
I found this web page which has some firmwares, it has 108, and two 118 versions one of them which STATES THAT'S COMPATIBLE with LZplay and googlefier. You have to pay to download the firmwares, I'm willing to pay to download for someone test it. I bought this tablet for my niece and I don't have it on hands right now to try.

[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] m4rtinmp:
I checked and it's exactly the same with BAH3-W09.

BAH3-W09 -> LTE version

BAH3-L09 -> WiFi version
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] AvZPablo4:
The 118 version doesn't works, I try it
[Huawei MatePad Pro Questions & Answers] m4rtinmp:
Well I had hope since they have two 118 firmwares and one of them state that it's LZplay compatible 🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️ (Could it be a patched firmware???, I'm guessing no because of bootloader firmware check or some sort, I'm not an expert)...

I read somewhere else that someone have tried 108 too with no luck...

I guess all hope is lost by now... 😭😭😭😭😭

None of them works, LZPlay is able to install but does not function properly.

[Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogLeu:
I flashed my P905 with Android 10 (17.1) . All things are running well. Phantastic work of the developers, many thanks. I only have a problem with the displayrotation. For example, if facebook is running and facebook change the display from horizontal to vertical, for example when i share something, the display will not come back to horizontal. It has nothing to do with the switch for displaychanging. Only a new start is helpfull. Also when i shake the Tablet, nothing happens with the display.

I think, it is a softwarebug. Can somebody say something for that problem?

Best regards

Roger

[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] GUARDIANBD:
Hello

Next week im buying new mobile and need your help to choose one :(

My deliberation is among the following devices:

Mi 10 8/256: (we have no Mi 10 Pro in my country )

Pros:

( + ) Good camera

( + ) Good cooling.

( + ) Good battery life.

( + ) Good screen.

( + ) Good Speakers.

Cons:

( - ) No Portrait Telephoto zoom.

Pocophone F2 Pro 8/256:

Pros:

( + ) Good cooling.

( + ) Good battery life.

( + ) Fast.

Cons:

( - ) Weak vibration motor.

( - ) Lack of OIS on cam just EIS.

( - ) No Portrait Telephoto zoom

OnePlus 8 256/12:

Pros:

( + ) Good Speakers.

( + ) 12GB RAM.

( + ) Near stock android.

Cons:

( - ) No Portrait Telephoto zoom.

( - ) Mediocre camera

( - ) Small battery compared to Mi10 / F2 PRO
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] XDRdaniel:
Who told you the vibration is bad on the Poco f2 pro?

---------- Post added at 11:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:55 AM ----------

So it's simple, if you care about camera, go for mi 10.

If you care about a full screen display without a horrible punch hole, go for Poco f2

Out of these 3 , there's not reason to go for OnePlus. Mi 10 has a bigger battery, bigger screen, and looks better
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] jbm76:
One thing the OnePlus 8 has going for it is the dev community is good.

[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] GUARDIANBD:
MKHD mentioned that the vibration motor is "fine" thats why i've mentioned it.

Anyone has Mi 10 Non-pro \ Pocophone F2 Pro and give their opinion?

2nd question, do you think that 8GB ram is enough for the next 2yr's?

That's why i was considering the OP8 256/12 in first place :)

Again thanks helping me guys :)
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] shadow78:
I can compare the vibra motor to a mi 9t pro and even to an iPhone 11 pro max (I own both as well as the poco). I have to say I quite like it. Its a great improvement from the last years mi 9t pro and not falling much behind of the iPhone. Over all its a good experience.

Why do you think 8gb isn't enough? I strongly recommend you to read about how a smartphone memory works. Unused Ram can also have a hit on the battery life. Therefore as others suggested I wouldn't go for the OP 8Pro, don't even mention its nearly double the price of the poco. GL with your purchase.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] hackdrag0n:
I'm seeing 5-6gb ram usage on my F2 Pro. Still plenty to spare.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] dhaern:
I only see 1 phone better than Poco F2 if you are willing to pay more, and it's the Oneplus 8 Pro, I prefer the Poco F2 Pro over Mi 10 and normal Oneplus 8.

So my recomendation is if you want pay more get the Oneplus 8 Pro not the normal version, if you want better price and this year phone Poco F2 Pro is the best one quality/price. And counting 2019 phones Realme X2 Pro or Oneplus 7T are amazing also.
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] GUARDIANBD:

[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] birleytweet:
I was deciding between the exact same devices. The OnePlus 8 Pro and the Poco F2 Pro. Although I kind of see different pros and cons.

For myself I don't play games and would choose the lower res and lower refresh screen to get additional hours in battery.

I don't do a lot of photos, so can likely get by without OIS on the camera. The option for to have the headphone jack, pop up camera, infrared and longer battery was enough to make me go for the Poco F2 Pro.

I haven't received one yet, but ordered one, so I hope I haven't made a mistake. Still no custom ROMs for this phone, so hopefully there are some options soon.

I probably won't open the phone until there's some ROMs, if I can't get LineageOS for it, I'll probably sell it and go for the OnePlus 8 Pro.

OnePlus 8 Pro

Pros: 120Htz Screen, Wireless Charging, Water Proof, Camera

Cons: No headphone jack, front camera hole punch

Poco F2 Pro

Pros: Price, Battery life, headphone jack, pop up camera (for security reasons), InfraRed (old, but handy), full display with no cut out

Cons: No OIS on Camera, More limited with custom ROMs than OnePlus
[Xiaomi Poco F2 Pro (Redmi K30 Pro) Questions & Ans] hackdrag0n:
There's a 7 day cool down on bootloader unlock for this device so I'd recommend you do the unlock process when you first get it to start the timer. This won't unlock the phone unless you do the unlock process again after 7 days.

That way you can unlock and start modding whenever you are ready rather than waiting 7 days from the point you decide to start modding.

Hardware : HTC One M8 AT&T Unlocked

I was able to get TWRP installed, my mistake was having the wrong version of Mind the GApps downloaded. The first time I went through I was able to install Lineage and Magisk and after about 20-30 mins the phone booted into Lineage, skipping the GApps install. I skipped through the setup and rebooted back into TWRP and went through the wipe - install process again this time with the proper version of Mind the GApps.

The install completed fully on TWRP with no errors. I rebooted the phone and everything seemed to be going great, but no matter what I do now I can't get it to boot into Lineage. I've tried every possible combination of wiping and reinstalling just Lineage & Magisk, all 3, Just Lineage, then an older version of Lineage... all the same exact result, the install looks to complete w/o errors and then I get stuck at the boot screen and have to hold both vol buttons and power to start again. I've tried to go back to the stock backup I made on TWRP and same - it looks like the install has completed but it never boots. The only change is that when I install the stock backup it'll try to boot up with a different screen w/o the "This build is for development purposes only.." text so I know SOMETHING is changing at least.

I could be doing something wrong on my end because this isn't really my expertise at all. When I have the phone plugged into my computer I keep hearing the windows noises that the phone is connecting but the phone doesn't show up in the adb devices command. EDIT : Just got it to show up in adb in recovery mode in TWRP.

I've had a lot of frustration with modern phones lately so I'm really desperate to get this to work. The M8 is such a good phone and I'm not done with it yet even if everyone else is. Any advice helps, I just want to get SOMETHING on this phone even if it's not Lineage.
