Anyone struggling with TfL payments? - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

I was able to use my P20 Pro for tube payments when I first got it but it's stopped working since firmware 110.
Is it just me?

Google Pay contactless doesn't work on Chinese Huawei P20 Pro

I have a P20 Pro bought from China, as I had problems using my S8+ with China sims, but Google Pay contactless doesnt seem to work. I can add my cards fine but when I try to set up contactless payments I get the message "Additional features could not be set up. Please contact your bank". I have contacted my bank and they ensured me everything is fine on their end. Everything was working fine on my S8+ so I don't believe it's my bank but rather the phone firmware. Anyone come across this?
If it's the firmware, is there a way to bring it to EU firmware but unroot it (lock the bootloader?) after I'm done? I'm quite sure Google Pay won't work if my phone is rooted and my bank apps definitely won't either.
Use the Huwei phone software to restore the phone.
You should do this first with a 2nd hand phone anyways in case previous owner modified it with tracking software etc.

NFC payments do not work

Hi all,
I have an issue with phone payments since ca. 10th of April. Before that date everything worked properly, then something made payments impossible. Phone suddenly stopped communicating with pay terminals in stores, no reaction between the devices at all (terminals don't see the card). NFC is on and ceecked via other app, credit card is correctly configured and activated in both bank app and Google Pay app. I'm on 9.0.0.197 since around 2 months, so upgrade to EMUI 9 did not cause the problem.
I'm in contact with Google support who seem to flip the problem on user side, HiCare support also does not see the issue on their side, they ask me to perform full wipe and ask questions about HCE activation, which I cannot answer. And, as you go through opinions on Play Store, it looks problem is not only mine, but plenty other M10 Pro, M20 and Honor Play users.
Any thoughts or ideas from you?
Thx,
Chaffinch

Problem solved.
What helped? I was in the beta testers group of Google Play Services. Cancellation of approval for beta testing and getting back of the Google Play Services app to version 13.2.92 (official, non-beta) unlocked payments by phone.
I post it if someone had a similar situation.
Best,

P30 Pro LTE stability?

Am at the end of my tether so hopefully someone can help!
I use an intercom app called Mobile Video from 2N. I am with EE and prior to the P30 Pro it worked flawlessly on my Samsung S8 (also on EE).
With the P30 Pro however, the app will no longer connect remotely to the intercom over a mobile connection (it works fine over WiFi). Having sent a log from the app to 2N they conclude the P30 Pro has an issue with LTE stability. I tried the EE SIM in another phone and the Mobile Video app works perfectly, so it leads me to thinking it's the P30 PRO.
Anyone else have odd behaviour like that? Any advice appreciated.
I think your use case may be quite specific, so finding users who have exactly the same issue may be tricky.
I have the P30 Pro and am on EE, if you can advise a way to test it then I'd happily give it a go for you.
That's very helpful thanks - have sent you a private message...

Huawei safety net fix emui 11 with fully working GMS w/notifications (magisk manager)

Good morning all.
I have a setup fully working with GMS, EMUI 11, notifications for ALL apps, GPS working and without GSF freeze.
Since there still are no bootloader code to get i was wondering if i can use magisk module with unrooted phone to install safetynet fix?
Will that work with no unlocked bootloader?
This is for google pay purposes.
2 years ago i had Mate 20 pro. And suddenly there where bootloadercodes to get for a small fee in this forum for USD 6 and then i had the perfect setup for my mate 20 with root and google pay.
I am still convinced that if bootloader codes becomes available again thru some thrid party offer (funky huawei og global unlocking solutions) google pay will work 100% with magisk module and safety net fix as i hides root access and phone operates normally.
I really love huawei phones and EMUI has really grown on me. I had samsung note 10 plus in a short period and i am never going back to one ui again. EVER.
How does magisk module work with unrooted phone?
PS! i am in contact with global unlocking solutions once a week to check if bootloader codes is available in whatsapp.
Hope all of ya is staying safe and well. #covid19
Have a nice day.
Regards from norway.
As far as I know we would need to wait for unlocked bootloader unless someone can say otherwise

p30 pro phone not updating - possibly a demo phone?

Hi - please go gently with me, first time posting and not very techy at all!
My husband was given a P30 Pro due to doing some work with Huawei, which he passed onto me. I've been using it for 2 years, and noticed the updates weren't happening, and google pay stopped working. Google pay said my phone was rooted or similar, which it isn't (that I know of). It had worked for 6 mths or so.
Called Huawei a few times and got vague answers.
Finally this week someone on Huawei support checked out my serial number and said that as my phone was listed as promotional or demo, it wasn't under warrranty and software updates wouldn;t be pushed to it.
So what do I do now?? I have a phone that is missing important security checks etc but if I root it as the support guy hinted, I guess I would still ahve the issues with google pay and other banking apps?
As I say, do explain this to me as if you're dealing with your nan!
Thanks
