There is no GMS pre-installed on the Honor Magic 3 series. I've tried many different ways of installing GMS with HW account, Googlfier, manual framework installation, also Ourplay virtual space apps (even this doesn't work as it indicates phone does not have Google Device ID registered), and none works. One main reason that the manual installation of the framework apps don't work is that when all apps have been installed and needs to process the steps to uninstall Google Play Services to be able to install another version, there is no UNINSTALL button in the Apps page (only DISABLE & FORCE STOP) unlike Huawei Mate 40 series where this works. As of now, I haven't found a working process for the installation. For your reference.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] partyonppl:
Btw, from my experience, Huawei Mate 40 EMUI11 can have working GMS installed but the process is just a bit tedious. But at least it works, Honor on the other hand has (from current available sideload installation workarounds) does not have any way to install GMS... yet.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] unix2208:
I don't have the device yet, but I will order it. It's cheaper in Asia, so I don't want to spend the 1500 euros. Unfortunately, I don't know the Magic UI. what about the bootloader?

Huawei closed the boot loader program in 2018. Now I wonder what about Honor and the bootloader? But I think it will be possible soon .. to install GMS. I can only recommend the APP "Gspace" for the transition.

it almost feels like GMS Nativ has been installed. At huawei it took a while to find a solution, but I think we will get a comparable goggle for Honor with Android 11 at some point. But of course it depends on whether enough people want to buy the device.

Unfortunately I couldn't see in the developer options whether the bootloader can be unlocked or not ???? But I can at least say one thing about Huawei, all devices that received Harmony directly, i.e. never had an EMUI. there is no installation of GMS at the moment. But with Harmony the problem is that it is basically still Android 10 and not 11. So the GSF cannot be used
[Honor Magic3 Pro] saved-j:
I only could get Gspace to work on my Honor3 Pro+.

at the moment, nothing else works.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] tensux:
dumb question..is honor completely banned from google as well, or will the global version have it preinstalled?
[Honor Magic3 Pro] jericho246:
The global version, when it comes out, will have Google services. Already been confirmed. Honor became independent from Huawei so they can use Google Play services once again.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] tensux:
excellent thank you
[Honor Magic3 Pro] vpoppo:
If you go to the Website of Trinity Electronics in Hong Kong they got Google running on the Chinese variant of the Honor Magic 3 pro plus but I don't know how they did it. I have been trying to figure that out. Most of the reviews I have seen have said that when the global variant is released there will be some update that will allow Google Services to be loaded onto the Chinese variant or I guess you could just flash the Global Rom but I still don't see a date for the global release. I would like to figure out how Trinity did it though.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] jericho246:
Huh, that's very interesting, thanks for the information.

I wish Honor would just release these phones globally already... Or at least make an announcement regarding the release date.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] Kx111:
I got Magic 3 pro+ chinese version with Huawei services, any chances for me to install Google services?? i tried Gspace and it worked but i want full google services in the phone with an emulator.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] tensux:
edit: every seller on ebay admitted that the devices they were selling did not have google on it, crazy misleading descriptions
[Honor Magic3 Pro] ch11sama:
Hi, I managed to install GMS on my Magic3 Pro+ (Chinese variant).

Since Magic UI is very similar to EMUI, LZplay method still works.

Notifications via FCM also work. After successful installation of GMS, I disabled GSF to achieve it.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] saved-j:

i've tried everything i could, every single instruction i found online. nothing worked.

if you can't uninstall Google Play Services, try uninstalling via adb:

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.gms

you may be required to restart your device after executing the command above if you can't install another Google Play Services.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] tensux:
nice, i wish i had the nerve to order a P50 pro and try this
[Honor Magic3 Pro] saved-j:
You did a fantastic job, now everyone will be able to repeat exactly same steps with you. I'll try next week when I get my hands on the device again, too.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] jalkaabi:
I followed all the steps but faced the following: (Magic 3 pro plus - Chinese variant

- Couldn't remove Google Play Services as there was no "Uninstall" button, instead there was "disable". So, I used adb to remove it. Did the restart but couldn't reinstall file no. 8 (google play services ) as it gives me an error message that it needs a shared library. didn't find any solution to this. If anyone who can help regarding this
[Honor Magic3 Pro] ch11sama:
- install old GMS again,

- uninstall old GMS using adb,

- try installing new GMS (No. 08)

- if you can't install new GMS (saying "need a shared library" or "newer version is already installed"), restart your device,

- try installing new GMS (No. 08)

You may have to do it several times.

As written in the article I referred to, this method is not stable.

When I have spare time, will do a factory reset, and retry installing GMS.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] jalkaabi:
Still no hope. Now stuck with not being able to install either old GMS or the new one. Did that several times and I ended in with the same senario. will keep trying
[Honor Magic3 Pro] Botanik5:
Same with me. Try this way and can not delite/install 08.Gms.... if somebody can help online PM me please... I will be extremely happy
[Honor Magic3 Pro] ch11sama:
I did a factory reset and followed the steps from the start.

The same issue (can't install 08.GMS) happens here, I'm looking into this.

I'll inform you if there's any progress.

Magic UI version may be affecting...
[Honor Magic3 Pro] PP205:
The same for me, I end with step number 8. Do you think it will be possible to upload firmware for Europe? Thank you ...
[Honor Magic3 Pro] kcg12345:
using this method, will google pay and google drive be usable?
[Honor Magic3 Pro] jericho246:
Google Pay - most likely not

Google Drive - should work.

I used to have a Huawei P40 Pro and installed GMS with a similar method. Google Drive worked for me with no problems.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] kcg12345:
Thanks. Let me give it a try. I think the best method is to wait for the international rom, only not sure when it will come out......
[Honor Magic3 Pro] kcg12345:
hmm, tried just now

Google Keep - No

Googley Pay - No

Google Drive - keeps giving me error message
[Honor Magic3 Pro] Botanik5:
Bootloader locked. So, almost impossible to change to global firmware. (also too big difference by price between Chinese and Global version). So, they will do there best to not allow to put Global on Chinese.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] jericho246:
True. In fact I wouldn't even try flashing the Global ROM (when it's available) on a Chinese variant, it would more than likely result in a bricked phone. And unbricking Honor/Huawei devices is a real nightmare.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] PP205:
If someone knows how to run google play, i don't need gdrive or just pay apps and bind with google play accounts.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] wayb2912:
Hey guys I managed to get it to work on my Magic 3 pro plus. The guy below on Facebook did it for me, he charges $50 but it is now working perfectly. Everything works except for Google drive, but you can get Google drive to work with gspace. My Magic 3 Pro plus is finally not a brick anymore

On my phone I think 6 Hours working for 50$ , great job, Im happy 😁
[Honor Magic3 Pro] Botanik5:
Hi friends!!! Same with me. That man really made excellent job! My Pro Plus now working perfectly (in my case GDrive working!). He spend around 3 hours (i am in China now and he need to work with VPN - sometimes it is too slow and we need to start again from 0).

https://www.facebook.com/renzdagztv/

So, he very professional in this questions and very nice men. Highly recommended ! 50$ by paypal - in my mind for this job ok.

(as i understood in this week already 7 phones done by him. He have a lot of videos on YouTube about GMS - just put 'renz dagz tv' in search on YouTube).

I use gspace to have gapps, like YouTube, Gmail and similar.

Oi amigos!!! O mesmo comigo. Aquele homem realmente fez um excelente trabalho! Meu Pro agora está funcionando perfeitamente (no meu caso o GDrive está funcionando!).

https://www.facebook.com/renzdagztv/

Então, ele é muito profissional nessas questões e homens muito legais. Altamente recomendado ! 50 $ por paypal - em minha mente para este trabalho ok.

(pelo que percebi nesta semana já 7 telefones feitos por ele. Ele tem muitos vídeos no Youtube sobre GMS - é só colocar 'renz dagz tv' na pesquisa do YouTube).
[Honor Magic3 Pro] gattobau:
If you don't want to pay anything, just download gspace from app gallery, install it, log with your Google account and download gmal, drive, YouTube and the other Google app.

5 minutes and you have all app you want

I use it from p40pro plus and never had problem.

On youtube there are several videos.

Hello,

come on ! it is really not needed to pay this Guy 50 $ for GMS !

Since we know long time ago that on every Huawei device from China you can have working GMS with some exceptions...

I have the Honor Magic 3 Pro, and it´s working with the "Ice Box" Methode incl. Notifications, working GMAIL,... Google Password-manager (Autofill)

Only thing that issn´t working ist Google-Chrome login and GPAY stuff...
[Honor Magic3 Pro] asyazra:

Very easy to install, 50$ for doing this is really too much.

There are a lot of guide on YouTube.. Just search icebox Huawei..

Can I link to the instructions? There are many instructions, few working. I don't want to waste time
[Honor Magic3 Pro] AxomiaHoiMoi:
Well, I've already I got the Chinese version of honor magic 3 Pro, and successfully installed gms.

I followed a youtube video, steps same as on installing on mate 40 pro.

However main thing is

Always factory reset before following the steps or there's high chance you'll fail.

However there's few apps that still fail to work due to older version of play services, and yeah app notifications fail in many cases, u'll need to follow more steps for that.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] gattobau:
@AxomiaHoiMoi @hyperX-

I don t know why with another honor magic 3 pro plus it recongise usb drive, but backup can't be loaded (seems to be no backup file on usb drive, but there are)

Any hint?
[Honor Magic3 Pro] hyperX-:
You can put the folders manually on System drive.

Also you can use Googlfier until a specified point.

After that, you use the iceBox methode.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] Marc.tab82:
How are you finding the Honor magic 3 Pro plus?.

I want one but hardly any real life reviews?

GMS Isn't must for me as I used to have a mate 40 Pro but the lack of Ois on the main camera annoyed me

I didn't exactly understand what you meant, but, I after doing same thing multiple times, I realised, its easy to install the backup by putting it in external drive then recovering from external drive, instead of waiting for recover from internal drive to show.

Also factory reset is recommended, because otherwise you get the problem where Google services cannot be u installed and only disabled.

And yeah please never try to update services /play store to new version.

I'll have a nightmare repairing it again, of its all easy if u wanna reset the device and lose all data.

Yeah here's the youtube video i followed.

Also the description of this video has the method to remove the annoying play protect notification.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] AxomiaHoiMoi:
Btw if anyone discovers a method to get notifications from apps without disabling gsf, do post here.

Also in few apps I get error of play services are updating, any solution?
[Honor Magic3 Pro] gattobau:
The problem is that when I insert the usb with the backup, when I go to look for the backup from the phone, it doesn't see anything.

It is as if the USB is empty.

I tried to format it in ntfs, fat, fat32 and exfat as well. Always usual problem. Also tried with other USB memories but always the same problem
[Honor Magic3 Pro] AxomiaHoiMoi:
I've never faced that problem, are you sure u've placed the extracted backup folder 'Huawei' folder directly into the root of usb drive? And have you changed the date to before July 2019?
[Honor Magic3 Pro] gattobau:
After some try I have installed gms, but I can t freeze notifications problem from Google

I tried to use icebox, but when I launch the command through adb, I recive "permission denied"
[Honor Magic3 Pro] AxomiaHoiMoi:
Ohh, I haven't tried this freezing notification, but you can disable play protect notification.

By following this video
[Honor Magic3 Pro] gattobau:
unfortunately it does not work for me.. continue to arrive notifications of play services..
[Honor Magic3 Pro] AxomiaHoiMoi:
Then I'm not sure, I've done this almost 20 times, and it's works alright everytime. The only defect is every time I repeat things, some app or the other stops working, last time it was drive, this time it's Google maps.

Maybe u can start afresh with a fresh factory reset. Also maybe do a fresh cache wipe.

Yeah same problem, everything goes okay but, Google maps integration doesn't work.

I would be happy if u shared your icebox methid guide here.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] MohitK.IE:
Easiest way to disable GSF for notification enable is to use multi tool 8 for Huawei /Honor and disable or debloat any services or app you want. Works very well. For some reason, recently i have started getting permissions denied message on icebx

Tbh, it seems that, gms on magic 3 Pro is more stable than on Huawei p40/p50.

I would like to try all these methods out there only if I wasn't a medical student with no time on hand, and

Yeah I'm using this device as a daily driver, so I can't Break it everyday and factory reset like it's nothing. 😁
[Honor Magic3 Pro] robi101012981:
I've found an Honor Magic 3 Pro+ on tradingshenzen and it's too bad that you can't use GMS with it...I honestly don't know what replacement should I found for my S20+ since there are no Huawei/Honor alternatives with GMS in Europe...
[Honor Magic3 Pro] sim255:
Yea i know i called up Honor UK to see if there was a release date for Europe and they said currently there isn't. The guy was quiet open and said there is an update coming for magic 3 going to android 12 but was unsure if the grey imports will have the update or have google services on there.

He also said they are not sure if honor will release the magic V for Europe or if they will leave it as a release for china. I personally think they are losing out on sales anyway, I have a huawei p30 pro and I thought I would look to honor as it now has google, but there doesn't seem to be any flagships ready to be released yet in Europe. I thought the Magic 3 pro should have come out now already,

I know I'm probably just setting myself up for disappointment, but I really hope they include Google services!

Any news, guys? I am running Magic UI 6, anxious about google services availability
[Honor Magic3 Pro] AxomiaHoiMoi:
Naah noting yet, am using magic ui 6 too, Magic ui 5, is just unbearable with all the glitches u get after downgrading. but I use gspace for Google apps, and micro g for notification, although not being able to login to micro g is an issue.

And surpringly, gspace doesn't show me any ads although I don't have premium.

So that's how I've been going.

Apkpure and aurora store for app updates. First I search app gallery tho.

Have been using for almost 6 months, faced no issue.

Recent update has made it difficult to install apps from third party tho, always requires pin to install , incase the phone feels the app is unhealthy.

I just hate how magic ui 6 removed the option to hide navigation bar in 3 key navigation. It forced me to move to using gestures, (that I don't like) just coz 3 key navigation, uses up a lot of my screen space if I can't hide it when not needed.
[Honor Magic3 Pro] fabiooli:

Once you upgrade, downgrading is quite a bad experience.

Just use gbox, I adapted in weeks.

Now I don't even feel the lack of Gms, except when gbox sometimes crashes 🙄
