Playstore and Google contacts on a Chinese Mate 8 - Mate 8 General

If you received your phone directly from China for example a NXT-AL10 , you need to install Play Store separately, to use Google contacts You also need to install an apk to sync them.
Give them permissions to work properly.
Go in settings, Apps.

Contacts sync version 7.0 seems not working properly.
Possible it's for Android 7.0
After going back to v 6.01 I needed to stop the program, clear data and cache and renew all permissions to have it working properly Again.
Huawei dialer/contacts on Chinese mate 8 doesn't support additional fields for first name and surname etc.
It's not possible to sort on them either.
For that you can install google contacts.
According to Play store our device is not compatible with it. So you need to install from apkmirror also in case you need it.
Don't worry, it's safe. At least for me it is though.

Maybe easier way is install Play Store by HiApp.

I personally don't think it's easier. I don't speak Chinese. So I've hiapp disabled. ?

I did not installed the google contact on my NXT-AL10. I just export the contacts from my old phone to a vcf file and dump into the mate 8 and import it into the Huawei contact app.

This way I can share them including foto's and more on every device I own. Changes on one device will show on the other devices too this way. ?
But, everybody can do it as he pleases. ?

Plz help me>>google play store not working
Please help me. I am using Mate 8 NXT AL10 Chinese Version. When it came to me was installed with EMUI 4.1 and now updated to EMUI 5 (over the air). Phone is not rooted at all.
When I got this phone, I was unable to have Google Play Store and other Google apps, then I use it’s built in App “Hiapp” and from Hiapp I installed Google play store and all other thing.
Everything works very fine all went good even updating EMUI 5.
Last week I visited Dubai (UAE) and here the problem begins, At Dubai (UAE) when I tried to download IMO calling software from Google play Store, I was unable to download it. Google Store worked fine but while downloading the progress bar keep on going for hours without any download. Same I encountered while updating google different apps update.
I checked with permissions (all are granted already) and other things but I am still facing the same issue.
I though perhaps it would be an app conflict issue due to Hiapp (Chinese) and Google Play store and I disable Hiapp as well but problem remained there.
I am stuck what is the issue. Can anyone help me.
For any question let me know.

Locked out of US Play Store

I travel in and out of the US a couple times a year. ATM, I have a US payment method and address, I'm in the US using a T-Mobile SIM. I can't access country-restricted apps, such as Pandora and Hulu. According to MarketHelper (or whatever it was called) I am T-Mobile US. I've called contacted Google, and they've refused support since I'm running a custom ROM (CM nightlies). Hence two questions:
Any ideas about the market issues?
How can I revert to stock and be able to come back to CM easily? I can't make a nandroid because I have 10GB of Google Music.

try clearing the data for the market app, then reopen it and log in.
Google had me do that, and also the data for Google Play services. By logging back in, do you mean delete my Google account from sync settings and re-add it?

no. when you open the play store after deleting data, it asks you to accept terms of use. i meant that.
Yes, that I did

Google uses a combination of the country your email address was reg in, as well as a few other things to determine what country store your app uses.
That's unfortunate, but how can I force it to reset? I don't even remember what country my email was registered in, but I'm sure in the US now and have been for the last year. I can confirm it's account related because I logged into another account and it works fine.

Only way is to contact google about it and tell the what is going on. They maybe be able to help you but dont hold out to hope.
Yes, they're support is pure garbage. I've been in contact with them but they're really no help.
Try going to Google Play My Account > Settings and confirm the carrier and device is correct. Next, try to install Pandora to the device. If it wont, it tell you why.
As I said previously is T Mobile US and I can't install Pandora. It seems to be an account issue because with a different account on my phone or on the website I can install Pandora

Try installing it from the web site with the same account that does not work on your phone. I may hint as to why it won't install.
When I had my Nexus S in Paris on SFR SIM, I was able to install SFR apps, but not update some US restricted ones, so I believe the market is tied to the SIM card, regardless of where the Google account was created. Other services, like Google Voice would depend on where the account was created (US only).
SIM, payment method, addresses are all US now.
I can't install even from the web (using my account).
With a different account I can install from my phone or web.
From the website it says: "This item cannot be installed in your device's country"

OK, your account still thinks you have a NON US SIM card. Power off, remove the SIM, power on and connect to WiFi. Check the web and see if the carrier clears itself. If you have market enabler installed, remove it, or try a different US carrier.
This is a bit of a stretch, but could you make a new gmail in the U.S and just use that one for the market?

I can confirm this works, I logged in from my work gmail and it works just fine. It seems like it would be a radical step to switch my Gmail account though. Theres gotta be a better way.
I called again, and this time they had me do something similar but slightly different (and ridiculous if you as me). I went to a paid app that WAS available to me (I randomly chose Minecraft) and I clicked buy (it was showing the wrong currency but I clicked anyhow) and then accepted the permissions, leading me to the next screen, which is a confirmation screen, in which the app will be purchased if you hit buy again but you don't, and you hit back and go back to the app. At this point you exit the Play Store and then (without force stopping it) you clear its data. You open it again, accept the terms and voilá! At least in my case this solved it, for some reason...
I must add that I removed foreign credit cards from google wallet (which according to previous conversations with them should have been a non-issue unless it was selected as default, which it never was), that I had on file but haven't used lately, so maybe that was related and that + a wipe of play store data was needed, I guess I'll never know now...

Lollipop Upgrade issues with play service.

Hi
My nexus 10 received the lollipop update last night. Once the upgrade was completed I tried to open up gmail or email where upon I received the following error message:-
Google Play Services, Google play services, which some of your applications rely on, is not supported by your device. Please contact the manufacturer!
I then did a quick google which pointed me to APKMirror website. I tried to update the google play service but it's made no difference. In addition to this I can no longer see the google play icon so cannot access or update any new apps.
Has anyone else got this issue?
Thanks
Stan..

No. I flashed lollipop using fastboot (losing all data in the process); this could be an option for you.
Cheers poldie,
I wiped my nexus and put it in recovery mode which sorted it out in the end.
Not happy about doing that but heh it worked.

Gmail not syncing since Nougat update

I updated to Nougat and now Gmail will not sync automatically. I have to swipe down in the app to get it to sync. All sync setting are turned on and I have tried disabling and force stopping the app as well as multiple reboots and nothing seems to be fixing the problem. Is this a known issue with the update? Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks
Same issue here as well, did you find a solution?
I had the Gmail syncing issue about 6-8 months ago and it eventually worked itself out after a couple of months. I think clearing play services might have helped. So far I haven't had the issue on 7.0. I have noticed a lot more activity over on the Google product forums in the last few days though with new reports of the problem again. You might check this link below.

Nougat OTA overwrote my Gmail app, including preferences. I just had to turn on syncing in the app again.

China Axon 7 does not support good services???

I bought a ZTE Axon 7 phone from China, but apparently it does not support nor update Google services. Now, all google services affiliated apps like youtube cannot be run on my phone. Pls help
Go to zte market, search for "google installer".
Install google play services and all the google apps you see.
Wait until all apps are installed. In the notification bar you may see a notification to select auto run apps. If that doesn't appear, go to mi-assisstant and then app manager.
Select google play services, play store and gmail. Log into your account and you will probably be prompted to update google play services. If it falls keep trying, it will do it.
Now you have google back...
I too have a Chinese axon 7. Just rooted it and had to set up again. It works. Done this a few times...
Good luck...

I can't log in to my google account

Hello
My Axon 7 arrived from China today, but it has big issue. I can't log in to google account, it stucks at "checking data" window. Can't use playstore, gmail, install apps... Internet connection is ok, checked everything except rooting. Maybe someone could help here?

Not sure but does the Chinese version even come with google apps? I thought google apps are blocked in China and don't come pre-installed.

yes there are google play, gmail...
OK, this is getting old now... After installing google play services, gmail and play store you need to go to mi-assisstant. Open the autorun section and tick all the above. You should be able to then log into your google account BUT it may take 1/2 hour to an hour before you can use properly. You will be prompted to update google play services when you try to start gmail. Until google recognises and registers your phone this will get an error when trying to update. try it about 30 minutes after you try to do it the 1st time and it should update as well as all the apps you installed. Contacts WILL NOT update...
