GMS core is back !!! - Huawei Mate 9 Guides, News, & Discussion

due to offical forum,GMS is back.
you have to uninsatll your GMS core (if there is) first. (neccessary)
then update your firmware to B135. (neccessary)
after, go to huawei store ,find "GMS 安装器" and install .
enjoy!!
I tested, It works !!
My device : MHA-AL00 B135 (Update from B125,china edition) 4G+64G.

It works!
I upgraded my mate9(4+32) from b125(?) to B135, and installed this app. After reboot, the GMScore is installed, and all Gapps I installed later works.
It seems that this third-party has found a way to flash a custom zip through Huawei's new recovery.
Can anyone look into the mechanism?

I think this is not third-party but actually official. Because Bruce Lee, the Huawei VP of Handsets Product Line also posts this app in his Weibo.
Though HUAWEI may don't want to officially acknowledge it for some reason.

Can you please post a link to this? Thank you.

Looks he deleted his post.
But you can see backup here http://imgur.com/a/5DN61, maybe I need delete this image later.
The app link is here http://a.vmall.com/app/C10736615

It is an official app
APK name:com.huawei.gmsinstaller.1611301922
APK signature: [email protected], CN=AndroidTeam, OU=TerminalCompany, O=Huawei, L=Shengzhen, ST=Guangdong, C=CN

So this app installs Google apps, without any Google play issues, on the Chi es version of the Mate 9? Even ROMs later than that one ending in 9 where Play works?

yes. IT seems like an official app, but released by third party.
when you click install button., IT require reboot,reboot to recovery!as far as we know, only huawei knows how to install software through recovery.
I test most Google apps,like play.play games, gmail. and etc . all work well.

Nice. I ordered Chinese Mate 9 with the firmware that is already good for Play but this will allow me to update firmware and keep Google Play working.

Yep, that is what it means. I still got one with the 009 firmware so it works out of the box myself, but now will have the option to use this to be able to update the firmware to more recent version and get Play working.

Curious about best practice here. Best to take it out of the box, update to latest OTA firmware version, then install and run GMS to get play and setup your stuff? Or, best to setup an 009 firmware Chinese version with all your stuff, then update firmware, then install and run GMS and your stuff?

I think it's always the best idea to update fresh. So my take would be to take it out of the Box, update it to the latest, install GM's and then set it up.

The Chinese version is about $100 cheaper than the international version and does not come with a preloaded GMS core. The lack of GMS somehow irrritated lots of so-called high-end Chinese users that frequently travel internationally. There was heated dicussion and deep dissapointment spreading in the official Huawei forum and people threatened to return the device if Huawei does nothing to satisfy them on GMS core availability. According to someone close to the management, it is because the neogotiation between Huawei and Google on the use of GMS did not work out and maybe it is true that Google charges HUAWEI on the use of GMS on domestic devices. It is all possible that Huawei marketed the mate 9 relatively cheaper in rhe Chinese market in order to take more market share, and do not want people from other countries to take advantage of the lower price of the Chinese version as it will harm the premium figure Huawei tries to establish on the mate 9. So to ease the Chinese users that need GMS and prevent internstional users from importing from China, they released this GSM installer in a "secret" way.

Just tried it and it seems to be working for me. Did you set the Google now launcher as the default launcher?

thats awesome guys...thanks for the feedback..ordered mine a few days ago..got it in..mocha brown is so beautiful...turned it on, only to be greeted by a Google Sign-In.....turns out the seller i turned down before that originally had chinese version, got in the international aisa version and sent that to me when i told them it again...now just sitting around for the update to hit....meh...still a beautiful phone, looks to be a good replacement to my note 7!

I got mine, had B109 with working Google services and I uninstalled all the Google stuff, did OTA to B125. Then it offered B135 OTA so did that. After reboot I stalled GMS and Play store and all good. Had to install Google contacts from APK mirror, and had to go to permission manager and allow Google app as trusted and auto start to get OK Google functionality working g but all good now.

so if i were to buy the mha-l00 chinese version of mate 9 and do this GSM update thing, then will i get the google play store and all its google goodness services working (all while keeping my phone updated with the latest official huawei updates)? will this GSM upgrade patch also allow other apps such as youtube, facebook, or other so called "banned apps in china" to work properly? or is this update patch limited to just using google play store and its services? basically changing a chinese version of the mate9 to a international version? is this correct? i am asking becuase I live in china and use the youtube app, as well as other foreign apps and games regularly on my other US bought phone (i dont like using the website versions of youtube, or facebook, etc) and i wish to do the same with the mate 9.
Its important for me to know and be sure because i already bought the mha-l00 version once the day it came out here in china but sold it at a loss a week later because i couldnt get the google stuff working, as well as the youtube app (all while on my vpn...) and i dont want to get screwed again...
im also visiting HK in a week and ill be on the lookout for the mha-l29/09 version there and hopefully ill find it and it wont be too much more expensive there then in mainland china. OR if i can be 110% sure that this GSM patch will support any and all foreign apps on the mha-l00 (in mainland china, while on my vpn), then maybe i wont need to wait to get to HK and look for it there, and maybe also save myself a few bucks, again... Thanks duraaraa for all your awesomeness and hard work!!!

axon 7 euro version Myvoice issue

My Axon 7 European (G) version shows no options in Myvoice. The US version has tons of options. Why the difference? Can I do anything to fix it?

The functionality is gimped in the G/EU versions.
In the EU version it's just voice unlock, US version is far more extensive, have no idea why ZTE insist on fragmenting their user base with such stupidity.
If anyone can extract the .apk from the US rom that would be appreciated.

I live in Paris -- my phone came from Germany -- and have the same problem. Would love to know if there is a fix.
Is it possible to load the USA software onto the G version, or something similar?

Yes you can apparently.
I tried to extract the apk from the full us b29 image from system.new.dat
Unfortunately ImageExtractor constantly crashes when it gets to 'E' so I can only get all the apks from A to E.
If a USA user can either extract or simply backup the apk it would be most appreciated for us G users.

I use ES file explorer which lets you backup any user or system app to a directory.
But the playstore has many similar backup apps dedicated just to backing up apks.
You could perhaps try this one.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ort&pcampaignid=APPU_1_6_yUWLDtHMfQ0gSlopf4Dg
Apk Export
Should just give you a list of installed apps, and then just navigate to MyVoice and it will copy the apk.
Much appreciate if you can manage it.

It won't install unfortunately.
But it has still helped me compare the US/Euro versions.
Which in turn has led me to making some progress, It led me too 2x additional apks, One which I have installed, and I can get some of the voice options, although some menus are in English, and some in Chinese.
And some options are crashing, but I can enable voice unlock, or name the assistant, sound unlock, voice memos, weather.
I will need some more time, to see what I can get working well.
I'll keep you posted.
Appreciate the help.

What's got me confused is....
The apks I managed to extract from a custom rom are called...
HaloSpeech.apk this is identical to the MyVoice.apk you uploaded.
Same version, size etc but named differently....
My G version also called MyVoice.apk is slightly higher version.
These won't install or overwrite my version.
I also came across HaloSpeechBase.apk which is about 50Mb.
This seems to contain the extra and missing voice stuff and installed, and as mentioned I can get to many of the voice functions, some crash and half of them are in Chinese.
I cannot help but think there should be a USA version of this file likely called something like MyVoiceBase.apk or similar and should be about 49Mb.
So perhaps if you could look to see if there perhaps a similar file on yours.
But not sure why the custom us rom i extracted them seems to have Chinese versions. But I will try and keep digging in the meantime.
I have enabled some of the functionality., so am confident this is doable.

I will take a look
I didn't find anything with base, but I find a Halo file. Here it is http://sendanywhe.re/1S9YPENS
And this is about 49mb
Got nougat yesterday
Hello,
Old thread, but maybe still someone can help around this problem..
I have got G version now, and some of the functions are missing of CH version as My voice, and MI-tools (with ZTE's factory shipped sound meter, calculator etc) and MI-Assistant
Also My Voice (as you called halovoice).
Anyone has it for the G version or someone could export it
from US (halospeech)
and also MI-Tools and MI-Assistant from Chinese version ?
I would really appreciate theese files!
Thanks in advance, AO

Well if you can get the enhanced version then even better. If you're planning to root and do stuff, every choice is good. maybe the A2017U is the best one since most kernels and some ROMs are made for that model. But with the enhanced A2017 you get 6 GB of ram, 128 GB of internal and Force Touch which is nice
I bought Chinese model with 128gb from Ali express. I'm using in UK with no problems. even using Google assistant. Most of the Chinese apps can be deleted

Otherwise you can try a hard reset or downgrading the OS then upgrading again

Downgrading is legal however your data will be wiped. Download a marshmallow system ZIP from ZTE or some download center (has to be an official zip, called update.zip [the one that you download from ZTE is a zip inside a zip, unpack it]) and put it on the root of the SD then go to Updates and install the zip

AL00 chinese version new firmware is out (B225) with one particular issue

Hi
I downloaded the b225 firmware 3-4 days ago and since then the battery from its over 5 hours average SOT has lost +20% of its power...
Has anyone else faced a similar issue after updating??!!
The old issues for me still not resolved :
Google now does not get activated by voice command
Whatsapp/telegram/etc social apps dont download latest messages unless the apps are open and running in background
Oh well....
I'm not facing the battery issue.
But the WhatsApp messages' auto receive failure persists.

Yes, Chinese version is updated frequently.
Additionally, it has call recording out-of-box and option to hide navigation keys
But there are some disadvantages too, like some specific problems with Google apps. I can't say that it is big problem, but in some cases it can broke your common way of using phone (navigation, Google assistant...). Yeah, it can be fixed, but you have to do something instead of gaining same in world roms.
There are also some bloatware with Chinese symbols which you have to disable or uninstall.
And Chinese version has tough algorithm to unload apps from memory, so user will get some problems with notifications. There is workaround to lock apps in memory. But it is another fix that you have to do manually in Chinese roms.
Anyway, you can try rebrand to Chinese rom, use it a few time, then back to US version or stay.

everyone that tried this "ROM" should check their devices for trojans and best roll back to some backup as the downloads are in no way legit. the url points to a user upload on leecos cloud system and not a real file authorized by leeco.

False, before making such a statement, please the check the details.

I don't know if you really tried the file. This is a total abomination and should not be called a ROM. Its littered with ads and practically unusable.
To make an emergency call you have to click some ads away. This "ROM" would be forbidden in Europe and the USA for this alone. And i haven't even touched on user tracking and snooping…
google play services dos not work anymore
I got the new rom automatically by OTA and after it came up Google play services is always crashing.

OFFICAL Release the Stable 28s ROM in 2017/dec./14, roms before the day is beta version!
我是中国用户,把最新的官方稳定版rom推送给xda的各位哈
i'm a user from china, and i found the rom release. so i download the file from bug.letv.com/cn/download/phone/34
u can try downloading the ROM below if u can.
WARNING: some people said the ROM has lots of ads and confused whether it legit/offical. here is the answer: cause the phone's hardware is cheap-price selling, LEECO must make money by other way like put some ads to belance there profit. if u want a rom useful at daily, wait guys modify at XDA

If you want to go back official then your data will loast
First download 19s indian version
Then upgrade it then clear all data in recovery mode
You will downgrade to 19s
Now you can go for 28s

Take back up of your app data to Google account.
Next Goto TWRP and wipe advanced all except storage. Then install 26s. After install Done, restore from Google account.

Hi Guys, I tried 28s, lots of advertisements. Please do not install. I am currently using 26s which is still stable and good for daily use. 26s Comes with built in Google play services, so just install Google play store apk from apkpure.com or online.

thanks for your help but i managed to recovery my phone already and it was very simple.
i downloaded the 026s rom, copied it to extarnal sd card, started the builtin recovery mode in my phone (not twrp) and boom! my phone got back to 026s rom with all my apps and data.
nothing was deleted. i had to do some customization but that's it. very very simple.

Any way to change language from Chinese to English?
What modem is used in this version?

help required

Hey everyone.
I am looking for some advice. i would like to flash a custom firmware to a nokia that doesnt have any bloatware or require any kind of google account.
I just want basic call and message function on the phone.
can anyone reccomend any?
Using a nokia 5 (model TA-1024 if that makes a difference)

Someone might be able to help, but it does make a difference which device you use.
So you need to give us that information.
If your device supports LineageOS, you should go with this one in my opinion.

yea so look for Roms that say "Vanilla" this means they don't have any google apps, it's just pure apps like file manager, messages and dialer.

link. this might be helpful for you to get TWRP but i didn't find a single custom rom for your device on XDA. But wait, got something in getdroidtips. I found some lineage os roms too (versions : 14 and 15). Maybe you could just flash them and check whether they are without google services or not. If they are with google mobile services, try rooting your device and remove the bloatware manually.

LOS doesn't have google things installed.
That's why I recommended it above already.

You are right but there are few exceptions in unofficial builds.
I've used a lineage os ROM for my Gionee S6s which was an unofficial build and it came with GMS preinstalled.
