How to install EMUI 10 for the JSN-AL00 with GMS working - Honor 8X Guides, News, & Discussion

So, if you have a Honor JSN-AL00 or a JSN-AL00a then you should've came across a problem were you were stuck on EMUI 8.2 and isn't able to upgrade your software and today I have found a solution for this irritating problem, First you should head to the settings on EMUI 8.2, then head to Applications, then you will find Three dot icon next navigate through then click Show System Processes, After that type Google in the search and uninstall anything that has google in it's name, then restart your phone and check for Software updates and you should receive the updates.
Keep updating your device until you reach to EMUI 9.1.0.215 then stop updating the device then follow the Video while being on EMUI 9.1.0.215
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bm1FggPu-Zs
Then after you have got the GMS apps working fine on EMUI 9.1, you can continue the updates until you reach to EMUI 10.
PS: I have tried this method myself and it works flawlessly, so make sure you follow each step mentioned above and if you face any problems during the process, make sure to reply down and I'll reply to you.

Confirmed! Bravo Maestro!!! THX!

I am sorry I didn't understand. How did you get to the screen where you can see system processes?

Basically on EMUI 8, head over to the settings app, then Applications then click on the three dots then Show system proceeses then use the search bar and type google then uninstall any app that has google in its name and restart your phone

Hi, I managed to do it. Thank you very much everybody. This is working!

Thanks, I got GMS working with EMUI 9.1 with your guide, and am (slowly) updating to EMUI 10. It's important to that you stop at 9.1.0.215 before installing GMS, a casual search online shows that the method may fail for 9.1.0.219+

Thanks borden toi saved my life!

Hisuite on my laptop wasn't detecting the phone had to use a desktop PC and i was able to downgrade to 9.1.0.176 then upgrade all the way to 9.1.0.215 then had to factory reset then i managed to install GMS and all is working. Then i upgraded to Android 10 with GMS still working without any issues

Before reading this post I tried to downgrade and I was successful from emui 10 to 91. however I was unable to install GSM and tried to go back to 8.2 and even hisuite doing the update I downloaded by the firmware finder I have brick problem the report now and ask if you can give me some guidance, thankful.
Hello, I'm common but I have a little knowledge, and I need to save my honor 8x China (JSN-AL00a) that only appears in the edl testpoint, this I say because it appears in the Windows 10 device manager as (HUAWEI USB COM 1.0 ), I don't have a dongle at all, I would like to know if I could fix it, is there any software that can do for edl point without dongle? Honor 8x kirin 710. thaks

Confirmed it is working on my Honor 8x Jsn-al00. I followed the instructions and updated until 9.1.0.215 then followed the Hisuite section of the installation. Can anyone confirm if it is safe to update normally from 9.1.0.215 to newer builds? Will gms still function?

It Works man, thanks a lot. I had waiting for that a long long time. Thanks...:good::good::good:

Hi guys,
I have got a Honor 8x Jsn-al00a running EMUI10 and want to roll it back to 9.1.0.215 to get google apps installed but my hisuite shows only the 9.1.0.219 version.
How did you manage to get it available?
Does anyone have a back up to be used as restore image ?
Thanks

[Fitwear] Alternative System for SW3

Hi all,
Today, I installed fitwear onto my SW3. For those of you who don't know, fitwear is an alternative system designed and made by a Chinese company called Lianluo, here is their website: http://fitwear.lianluo.com/ . In this version (Android v5.1.1) I found, it supports English, in addition, it supports OTA upgrade. However, this system seems to be free from google services.
This system does not require Android Wear APP.
OTA upgrade requires an Android Phone.
I have attached the files that I used. It contains: (I DID NOT made any of these tools, I only did translation.)
Driver: install the common fastboot driver in FlashTool first.
CMD easy Flash Tool: I translated it into English.
recovery: unknown purposes.
fitwear: v1.0, can be upgraded to v1.2 via OTA. (Build 20170118)
Android Wear (unknown version): I did not roll back to AW and I haven't check the version.
Orignial Chinese tutorial and flash_chs.bat: Read it if you can.
Installation Steps:
Install Flashtool driver from FLASHTOOL and the driver provided.
Extract the zip and run flash.bat (admin not needed).
Unlock your watch using the cmd if you haven't.
Flash Fitwear.
Reboot to fitwear.
Download the fitwear app onto your phone and connect to watch.
Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9OX6FDB6BzZaUlaYjlhSUVEdTg/view?usp=sharing
Link for v1.2 (by hardy272): https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3t...ew?usp=sharing
Note: OTA upgrade needs the watch to be connected to some WIFI.
Disclaimer: By doing this you void your warrenty and I don't take any responsibility if your brick your device.
Do not distruibute!!! This is not thoroughly tested.
Reserved
I OTA upgraded to v1.2, nothing major changed, and I couldn't find a changelog. It seems that the watch would download something onto the phone to do the OTA upgrade, and I am wondering how to extract that out, or how to dump the entire system. Any help would be appreciated.
The battery seems to be nice, a lot of Chinese users reported very good battery usage. I guess that is due to the absence of Google Services.
I also noticed that OTA probably won't work with iOS.
Pictures:
Where did you find the rom for the SW3? On the downloads page of the website it allows me to download only the moto 360 one.

can u put music using google play or just connecting to the computer?
Looks like that the app is only in chinese https://itunes.apple.com/es/app/fitwear/id1078127859?mt=8

On the change log, it says on version v1.9, they added English support. That APP works the same way as the Android Wear APP. You still have to play music on your phone, and on the watch you can control it.

I can confirm that the OTA does not work with iOS.
When i connect the watch with my pc the install script wont recognize the watch, and if i look in the device manager the watch is named tetra and has a yellow triangle above its icon.
The weird thing is i can reboot the watch via adb, so atleast the adb drivers must be ok. The watch itself is already rooted and has twrp on it, but i unlocked and installed twrp with linux because there the watch is fully functional ind fastboot mode.
So has anyone a solution for this, beside of installing various adb drivers or something like that. (and yes i tried mostly of them with no happy end, and even the flashtool drivers didnt work)

You'll have to do this, to get Fastboot working:
Right-click the tetra item, and choose Update Driver.
Browse my computer for driver software.
Let me pick from a list of available driver on my computer.
Manufacturer: Google
Model: Bootloader
Next
Confirm
Profit?
Hopefully I didn't miss a step somewhere in there.
I just finished setting it up, and will report back my experience, after I get to play with it a little more.

Netflix does not run on rooted global rom 10.3.5

Hello all,
I have received recently an (ebay bought) Mi Max 3 4/64.
The phone is the China version and came with a global rom.
The phone immediately at first launch updated itself to miui global 10.3.5
I rooted it via TWRP (ignoring the password prompt) using the Magix zip and all seems to be fine. (I did not install TWRP itself, just used it to flash the zip)
However I tried to use now netflix and it does not work.
First the app was not showed in the app store: I found the apk at a different source.
But when launching the APK it now consistently crashes.
I installed the "liboemcrypto" plugin in magisk - but that made no difference...
What can I try now?
Thank you for any pointers

It was actually quite easy (I assume your phone is unlocked, right?)
You need to download the ADB tools to your pc
Get TWRP for Mi Max 3
Copy Magisk ZIP to your Mi Max (most recent version)
Reboot Mi Max in Fastboot mode
Boot TWRP via fastboot on the phone (no need to install)
Disregard the password comment
Flash the Magisk Zip via TWRP
Reboot - you are rooted
If you need more details feel free to PM me.
PS: You may need to find a slow PC as some people (including me) have issues when using a current, faster PC with USB 3

Does anyone have the Android 10 beta full RAW firmware ???
Hello, if anyone has access to the full Android 10 beta RAW firmware, please share it with us. Thanks !!!
Wow it's amazing. The red tint gone and it's way too smooth
It seems this has also broken the ability to enable VoLTE (*#*#4636*#*#) greys out the options but they do show up in the Settings menus. So not sure what that means?
EDIT: Ignore, its because the profile set in PDC was reset as someone else has pointed out. I JUST got VOLTE to work again after working with AT&T to get a provisioning error resolved (this was on their end, but probably because I was swapping SIMs between phones for testing)
Im going to let this settle a little bit before I try upgrading again to this (I downgraded back to 9 in fear that VOLTE wasnt going to work again)

Unable to install Google Play on Matepad (BAH3-L09)

Hi. My Matepad is BAH3-L09 and I was not able to install Google Play on it as I keep receiving "LZPlay not support" in Chinese language. I tried several top instructions on YouTube, but none works. Anyone managed to install it on your Matepad?
Same Problem here, BAH3-W09

So no luck with those "install on every device" videos.
Seems to be the same with the P40 Lite 5G model

I hope so, too.
Don't know yet, why it is not supported.
At the moment you can't really find anything about it on the internet.
I've got Gapps installed on my P40 Pro. For a mobile phone, I think it is required.
On the tablet however, i think its more a nice to have than really necessary.
Furthermore, I wrote to Amazon Video, Netflix and Disney+ support and all of them said that "they are working on it"
So fingers crossed that HQ Streaming of those services will be available.
Although Disney+ does Stream in 1080p without Widvine L1.
Edit: Found an article about the problem. https://www.justandroid.net/2020/07...ernative-solutions-also-affects-matepad-10-4/
I'm having the same issue installing on Matepad 10.4 WiFi (BAH3 W09). No method works, LZplay (G icon app) always gives the error button on opening and cant go any further. Tried replacing 'backup' app exactly as directed in a couple of videos, no luck.
Anyone got Google 7&Play to install on this model?
Looking into this I would guess Huawei have removed the 'stubs' in the system firmware that allowed the LZplay app to work in the first place (and allowed it to install the required stuff as system apps). If newer devices are being rolled out without those 'stubs' then we are out of luck as far any LZplay method goes.

I don't really know what the function of the "stubs" file is, but if it is removed, is it possible to add it back and then install LZPlay?

Actually, it isn't 'stubs', I got that wrong. It's an undocumented API that existed in the firmware/ROM that allows LZplay to install the google stuff as system apps (and they need that to work). If they have removed that API from affected models, and it looks like many new ones might be in the same boat going forward, then I cant see any way of a user restoring it.
If that is the case then the only way to get GMS/Play etc will be a new non LZPlay method (that seems unlikely given the system access required) or if the ban gets lifted and Huawei add it back in future firmware updates (not sure how likely that would be either). A shame, as this is a very nice tablet otherwise.
Another thing to note is this doesn't have a gyroscope either, though the spec sheets wrongly say it does.
I've only just got my Matepad 10.4 from the Huawei UK store, so I'm seriously thinking of sending it back in the 14 day window. I could live without GMS/Play, but it is annoying.
Just one workaround - you can install VMOS virtual machine. It is not perfect - they have just Android 5.1 and 7.1 images and of course you have to start the application, but it works.
Between the AppGallery and the VMOS I have all I need. And the Trump's stupid trade war just allowed me to get the top tablet cheaper than Huawei would sell it otherwise. Every cloud has a silver lining.
And one more solution - HiSuite enables (as of today, not sure for how long) to downgrade firmware. And LZPlay works on the older firmware.
Of cause - the downgrade will delete all data on the tablet.

Ive no problem erasing everything, but are you sure it will work on an older firmware? Do you have a link to that info at all?
Pretty sure the firmware mine came loaded with ended with 115. LZPlay didn't work with that and I have let it update since then to the latest version. I think the first version made for this tablet ended in 108 (can't see an earlier revision in a google search). I assume that's what the first models in early April would have shipped with. If LZPlay has never worked with this model though downgrading wont be any help.
It worked for my tablet which I bought a few days ago, but I now realize I have LTE version - so different model.
Still I guess the LZPlay problem may be similar. LZPlay does not fully work anywhere anymore. Even when it works, it fails to do its work on its own and has to be helped by manually installing things. I used https://youtu.be/pdgGkHEe7V4 .
My experience: After getting the tablet I updated it to the newest firmware and then tried to install GP. Bad luck. No device admin request from LZPlay, just small popup with two buttons in Chinese. I guess Huawei removed the API as written above. After downgrade through Hisuite (4.6GB download), LZPlay "worked" (it asked to be device admin and shown screen where it would have downloaded GP things if it had worked properly - though the downloads failed - I think that is normal). Then I went according to the describtion which was under the YouTube video. I had to redo installing of APKs twice (maybe I did not follow it perfectly first time) and I added Google account when starting Google Play Store (so not as described under that video), but it worked.
I was kind of confused by LZPlay for some time - the fact it fails to download etc is normal state of things. I guess it used to be one-click solution, but not any more. Still I guess that running it is essentiall to enable other steps to work.

I have the model MRX-AL09 with EMUI 10.0.1.177 - that is the downgraded version.
I was probably on 10.1.0.120 before - at least I think so, I did not write it down before downgrage

yes, now i have 10.1.0.121.
Ok, I’ll save the data and try to roll back the firmware.
Have you tried updating your tablet to the latest version after installing google services?

Question Issue updating Oxygen OS, please advise

Hello,
I have recently updated my Oneplus 9 Pro to version LE2123_11_C.47, so far so good
but than it wont go further, trying to update to LE2123_11_C.61 fails,
presumably because that one is incremental and I am rooted,
I don't watt c.61 anyways but C.62 as its the newest.
Unfortunately the new UI in C.47 does not offer local upgrade with a zip file anymore.
And anyways where can I get the C.62 zip for me EU model, the download on OPs page does not have a recognizable version scheme so I'm not sure what they are offering there to me.
An other issue I stumbled upon is that when i now try to boot into twrp-3.6.0_11-0-lemonadep.img using fastboot boot ... if freezes and crashes to a qualcom dumper, WTF... is there a more twrp recent version for LE2123_11_C.47 ?
Please advise how to proceed, i would like to update to the newest C.62 lafter perhaps to the Android 13 beta, but lets leave that for later, keep my root and have a working twrp.
so whats the trick with the new versions?
PS: Progress, twrp-3.6.2_11-0-lemonadep.img boots but fails to decrypt after entering the right password...

Password don't work......try with patron, must to work.
password works on normal boot does not work with twrp, also when i google i find a lot of reports about twrp decrypt issues with android 12.
So is there a fix for that?

there is the "local updater" app if you want try
or just restore stock boot.img and retry

Passwords don't work on twrp a12.....only patron works, and I don't know any fix for that.
what is this patron ?
where to find the "local updater" app?

Sorry, I write it in Spanish..... pattern, you must use pattern.
You can download local update in OnePlus forum.
Aaaaa... so disable apssword enable unlock with pattern and it should work, all clear thank you will try
hmm... i switched to pattern, entered pattern in twrp and still decryption failed
haha success... i have disabled password entierly and in this state twrp could mount /data successfully
PS: fix for the updating issue was to use this "Oxygenos updater" app from the appstore to download and install a custom updater app OPLocalUpdate_For_Android12.apk form oneplus to be able to sellect the downloaded file.
The strange thing is that the current build of android again shows the regular manual update option so no idea why c47 was so messed up :/
but now all is good only question if i should try the beta 13 or if then i have to expect even worse trouble with twrp lol
mmh.... not so great the backuo fails at 50% with error 255 failed to fork process
final success... delting /data/fonts solved the backup issue to find what to delete i only needed to review the recovery.log from twrp and look for where it failed
