[MODULE] Google Play Services "Incompatible" Fix for Lenovo Vibe K5 (and maybe more!)
Not a long ago, my devices Lenovo Vibe K5 is blocked to update Google Play Services. What i mean is blocked is that all of my device user (K5 and K5+) can't update Google Play Services with error message "Your device is not compatible with this version" both on stock rom and custom rom.
So, i started experimenting and made this module.
How does it work?
1. It clear data for Google Play Services and Google Play Store
2. Then change device prop using magisk system.prop
How to install?
1. Download zip file from Magisk, it's called "Google Play Services Fix for Lenovo Vibe K5" or from here
2. Install the module
3. Reboot immediately after module installed
This module is specifically made for my device, but other devices can try it too. But in note that your device model on "About phone" will changed to my device.
Special thanks to @topjohnwu for creating magisk
Reserved for updates
Hi, thanks for the module. I'm trying to use it so that I can update apps like Netflix on the Play Store. I installed on a Oneplus One (bacon), running TugaPower's Nougat 7.1 ROM with systemless Xposed. After a number of reboots the play store still shows that Netflix is not compatible with the device. I disabled the Xposed module and cleared data for Google Play Services and Google Services Framework. Magisk shows that I am passing SafetyNet, Google Play is showing the device is certified and your module seems to work as my device shows as yours in system settings/about. Still no luck with Netflix, I am preparing to give up so any advice is welcome Did you manage to use Netflix through the Play Store with this module?

for that, try to clean install your ROM.
first, you install ROM+Gapps. then boot to system and login. look at the netflix see if its there or not.
then you can install magisk etc. that trick always stay me away from many problems about play store
Guys I'm in a major fix here. Any help would be appreciated.
K20 Pro Global Version - Currently on MIUI Global 11.0.1.0(QFKMIXM)
Rooted via Magisk
Everything was perfectly fine until I noticed 'microG installer Revived' on Magisk and decided to install it.
After I rebooted, Youtube Vanced wouldn't open stating that it won't run without Google Play Services. Same issue with Gmail as well. I went into the microG settings and accepted all the missing permissions. Added my Gmail account, signed in and accepted all the other permission pop-ups that came after.
Despite this everything is still messed up. Gmail and Youtube still gives the same error msg and Chrome keeps crashing.
I tried uninstalling microG but that was an even bigger mistake as the Google Play Services I installed via apk kept crashing.
If someone could pls guide me on how to get the system to how it was prior to the microG installation :crying:
So I managed to fix it somewhat. Uninstalled microG then installed the right version of Google Play services as well as the calendar and contacts sync apks.
No more crash messages but the issue I'm having now is that some app notifications don't work and others (such as Whatsapp) work only sometimes.
And for some really weird reason my Gmail no longer is (or has the option) in dark mode.
Anyway to fix these issues guys?
I've the same problem with my Huawei Mediapad M5 tablet. I've tried to reflash the original "SYSTEM.img" from fastboot mode, but nothing changed. I don't want to do a full reinstall because of this mistake, is there any solution?
Messing with microG is a recipe for disaster because in and of itself it is disastrous, reflash the firmware from scratch and use the Vanced magisk version even though it isn't the last version it works just fine

It's an absolute nightmare, not sure why the devs don't just update the Magisk version, and I agree the Magisk version works perfectly fine
MicroG works only on systems that don't have GAPPS. That should have been included in the documentation.
I had the same problem (I installed the microG installer revived on a cell phone that had google play services, which caused me that error; I installed the magisk module without knowing what it was for), I solved it by doing the following:
1. Uninstall micro-g and google play services and then restart the terminal.
2. Download and Install (install as system application with lucky patcher) the latest version of the google play services apk, restart.
3. Log out or remove google account from device, reboot device.
4. Login or add google account on the device again, restart the device for the last time; and voila problem solved.
I can't remove my account for some reason, and also I can't add a new google account
Hi Guys, have the same problem. has anyone found a solution? would hate to reset it
Trying to work out what it could be for the first post. It sounds like MicroG was installed while the Google Play services were already on the device.
I have actually manually removed Google Services using the debloater magisk module and run it via terminal.
I'm currently using CrDroid Android 12 and it's working fine with MicroG revived version. I have been testing the Android 13 with MicroG and have issues with the Play Store signing in
Hello guy i managed to get gms semi working, I dont know what to do next
Tried everything i dont have any ideas anymore hope somebody can use this and make it working
Playstore gets data but u cant download it crashes
Play services is version 7.3.29
Services framework is version 4.4.4(newer doesnt work)
Account manager version 7.1
Youtube works with account but sometimes crashes
Perhaps if you share the steps someone can use that info and make it happen.
Okay
1. Installed lzplay
2. Installed googlefier
3.installed only microg gms from googlefier and logged in with my account
4.I disabled microg gms trough adb so that account stays loged in while uninstalling(there is tutorial how to disable apps)
5. Installed Services framework version 4.4.4
6. Installed google account manager version 7.1
7. Installed google play services version 7.3.29
8. Instaled Playstore
9. If playstore wont open just go airplaine mode and delete data of playstore and services framework
Playstore opens and gets all data u can search everything but when u click download it crashes if u want working youtube u need to update google play services to this one i put here but when u install this apk i get error that this device is not play certified
Edit: uploaded all apks that i used,except play services 7.3.29 you will have to download it from apkmirror(i doesnt want to upload)
Please specify: China only device with Harmony, not with EMUI.
On Chinese models, GMS should be fully functional, as far as I know.
Well, as i've searched on youtube it's complicated to sideload GMS on HarmonyOS for chinese devices, no matter if it's Mate 40 Pro or P50 Pro, it's complicated...

it is a big step ahead, hope someone will find out the complete solution. how about downgrade to EMUI 11 and try the steps one more time?
Hi!
I'm using Mate 40 Pro (C432 - HW-EU => NOH-N29).
It's rather easy to downgrade using the HiSuite from EMUI 12 down to 11.
In my case I'm setting up the Hi Suite Proxy (3.3) downloaded from it's official page:
Releases · ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
Modifying HiSuite and manipulating it's connection data to install Roms before they officially get released. - ProfessorJTJ/HISuite-Proxy
github.com
Just install HiSuite, Hi Suite Proxy, patch the HiSuite, start up the phone and connect.
I additionally turned on the Programmer Mode in the phone.
Once connected via HiSuite, in the UPDATE section, except the UPGRADE (if available) it allows to install another variant -> in my case it's allowing to DOWNGRADE (Roll-back) down to EUMI 11 (in my case: 11.0.0.253).
IMPORTANT - it's deleting/erasing all the data, so before ANY actions it's wise to backup the files on the phone.
After downgrading I was trying many methods:
- LZPlay / G-Play,
- Googlefier,
- MicroG (several variants, including the one where it allows to use different 'ID's' -> i.e. Nexus X5 (which worked partially in opposite to other sollutions).
- LightHouse -> variant available on AppStore (Huwaei) isn't working, but the one downloaded from this forum did allow me to create the Google account.
Unfortunately any mixes/fixes of GPS, GFS, Account Managers, Google Play Store - are recognizing and forgeting the accounts, while attempting to remove the MicroG or LightHouse.
Perhaps you can help by explaining how to freeze the MicroG (by ADB?) and I'll be able to move-on.
My goals are:
- make the Android Auto to run;
- make the GApps -> Google Assistant, Chrome (with sync), Google Calendar to work;
I manage to make GMS worked natively with some limitations (push notifications using Google FCM and Map showing on some apps which can be solved by downloading those app from AppGallery).
I have been updated the file to Honor GMSv2.zip to most of file are Android 11 (API30) and recent working version possible. My phone run:
Magic UI 5.0.0.189 now (Mar 1 2022 security)
I uninstalled the system update to avoid update to UI 6.0
no possible solution yet for 6.0 for gms installation, Google will be removed on first reboot on 6.0

What kind of limitations do you refer for? I am using Magic ui 5 with google service almost perfect without any restrictions.
I don't get the ui 6 yet, but if you got struck because G app logo (the google assistance), you only need to reinstall old backup app before you restore it.

No google maps on other apps like Google Photos, Uber etc. Of course limitations on notification.

It should have worked on old version of backup like Huawei. Be sure you have a change of date before restore (it is important step! )
The version of mine that worked is com.hihonor.koBackup-11.5.1.348-230501348.apk
If it is still not work out, It might be Honor phone updates to android 12 incompatible with the assistance app, you may downgrade to install it.

yeah, i am waiting for some solution or installation method for GMS on Magic UI 6. Let's see if someone is coming up on this.
I am using previous method to install GMS. my only problem is I can't update GMS because its is a system app now, P50 doesnt have this problem. IS there any other workaround for those system apps thing. P50 works fine with no errors or notification and all Google files are uptodate. Honor Magic3 Pro freeze when google wants to update gms when installing gboard.

To clearify, the previous method is just extended and also needless for Honor magic 3 pro where it only need to clear data on Framework to fix the error.
First of all, to update google services, you should go to play store and turn off app auto-update from the settings first.
The steps to update or uninstall are here:
-update using unsupported version for Google services (android 11 version any packages)
-reboot, You will see uninstall button
-Install any packages you want
The files are attached below! the second packages is 20.30.65 that is work great, you can try other version on android 10 for GMS to work.

As you mention, P50 is based on Android 10, and Magic 3 pro is on Android 11.
You can try to update the Google Services Framework from 10 to 11 to make it work flawelessly, still, some limitation on Map and push.
The procedures are the same as updating Google Play Services.
Thank you. Very clear.
The method i used was to insert GSF to google account, which allowed me to update smoothly on P50.
hi,
I tried on my Honor Magic 3 Pro Plus (Ultimate) but I can't uninstall the Google Services Framework. My phone can't fix the Google Play Services error message: this device isn't Play Protect certified
New method that worked for me (2023/01/21) here. If the below method doesn't work, try it.
----------------------------------------------
After literally a year I have GMS on my P40 Pro again!
What worked was following a tutorial that badmania98 shared (thank youuu)
I didn't see anyone comment about this so here's what I did that actually worked.
First of: My device is a Huawei P40 Pro with EMUI 10 - 10.1.0.176 (C432E8R6P1). I don't know if it works with other EMUIs/devices. It should according with the video tutorial.
Steps:
0 - Some steps won't happen like you see on the video, so read carefully.
1 - Watch the whole tutorial first: The link to the tutorial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kGkLsf83Bk
2 - Download the app to your device and the HuaGu PC ADB to you PC.
3 - Turn off wifi and mobile data on your device, turn off the internet on your PC (this is just for security reasons, may not be really necessary. I did it)
4 - Do all the PC stuff you see on the video and also step 1 and 2 on the HuaGu app.
5 - When you reach step 3 of the HuaGu app, you may get stuck on the Restore Backup process. Let it run for a minute, go back, and if the step 3 doesn't have a check, do it again. On my 2nd try I got a check on step 3 and moved on.
6 - Turn on wifi or mobile data on your device.
7 - When doing step 4 of the HuaGu app, it should open the Google Service Assistant (that app with the purple G), gives you a error in Chinese and you won't see the same screen as in the video tutorial. Just got back to the HuaGu. It will give you a hint about not knowing if the Assistant did anything (In my case it appears that did nothing, but the whole thing worked anyway).
8 - Do steps 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
9 - Open Google Play Store. You'll get those annoying notifications about the not valide device / certifications / whatever. Press retry, open, close, retry and eventually Google Play Store will open normally even with all the notifications popping up.
10 - Install Google Maps. It's going to be annoying to do because of all the notifications.
11 - Open Google Maps and confirmed that you are logged in to your account. Move around the map a bit.
12 - Leave the device showing notifications for a minute or two.
13 - If you still have the annoying notifications (you probably will), go back to the HuaGu app and press on step 10.
14 - There, press step 0 and go back (I didn't register anything here. Maybe because at one time I had GMS on this device, dunno).
15 - Do all the other steps like it says.
16 - Open Google Play Store and disable automatic updates. Close it.
17 - Reboot again.
18 - Open Google Play Store, open Google Maps. If everything is working and without annoying notifications, uninstall HuaGu, Google Service Assistant and that backup restore app. Also, go to your downloads folder and there should be a bunch of APKs that were used during the tutorial. You can delete those as well. Turn off Developer Settings if you don't use them.
Congrats!!! You should have GMS on your device!! I only tested with Maps because it's the only app I really care about that needs GMS to be work so I can use all its features.
Thank you badmania98 and Average Logs!
so i have to roll back the EMUI from 12 to 10 first right?

Is your Google account on phone Settings\Users & accounts\Google ?
I tried about 20 times to do according to this instructions with HuaGu2.
Tried 10 times with HuaGu3.
And every time the same result: after uninstalling MicroG and installing Google Play Services, there is no Google item in Settings, no Google accounts (although there were MicroG accounts) and the Play Market asks to enter.
I have a Huawei P40 EMUI 12 Europe phone. I tried several different firmware, downgraded to EMUI 11 - the result is the same.
Have you come across such cases? What to do?
Not working for me either, same reason. When i uninstall microg, it also uninstalls my google accounts
P40 Pro, 10.1.0.176 (c432)
Any suggestions?

A lower firmware is needed.
EMUI10.1.0.121 or 131 for P40Pro C432.

Yes, I was going to try that. But when I tried to downgrade via your Dload method (like i did before to get to 121) it wont let me downgrade now. It is now on 230. I've formatted memory stick, put dload folder back on it and tried again but it stays at 230. So why before it let me downgrade but not now? I dont get it.

From 11.0.0.230 to 10.1.0.121 you never ever have to use dload method. I never recommend this.

After literally a year I have GMS on my P40 Pro again!
What worked was following a tutorial that badmania98 shared (thank youuu)
I didn't see anyone comment about this so here's what I did that actually worked.
First of: My device is a Huawei P40 Pro with EMUI 10 - 10.1.0.176 (C432E8R6P1). I don't know if it works with other EMUIs/devices. It should according with the video tutorial.
Steps:
0 - Some steps won't happen like you see on the video, so read carefully.
1 - Watch the whole tutorial first: The link to the tutorial: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kGkLsf83Bk
2 - Download the app to your device and the HuaGu PC ADB to you PC.
3 - Turn off wifi and mobile data on your device, turn off the internet on your PC (this is just for security reasons, may not be really necessary. I did it)
4 - Do all the PC stuff you see on the video and also step 1 and 2 on the HuaGu app.
5 - When you reach step 3 of the HuaGu app, you may get stuck on the Restore Backup process. Let it run for a minute, go back, and if the step 3 doesn't have a check, do it again. On my 2nd try I got a check on step 3 and moved on.
6 - Turn on wifi or mobile data on your device.
7 - When doing step 4 of the HuaGu app, it should open the Google Service Assistant (that app with the purple G), gives you a error in Chinese and you won't see the same screen as in the video tutorial. Just got back to the HuaGu. It will give you a hint about not knowing if the Assistant did anything (In my case it appears that did nothing, but the whole thing worked anyway).
8 - Do steps 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
9 - Open Google Play Store. You'll get those annoying notifications about the not valide device / certifications / whatever. Press retry, open, close, retry and eventually Google Play Store will open normally even with all the notifications popping up.
10 - Install Google Maps. It's going to be annoying to do because of all the notifications.
11 - Open Google Maps and confirmed that you are logged in to your account. Move around the map a bit.
12 - Leave the device showing notifications for a minute or two.
13 - If you still have the annoying notifications (you probably will), go back to the HuaGu app and press on step 10.
14 - There, press step 0 and go back (I didn't register anything here. Maybe because at one time I had GMS on this device, dunno).
15 - Do all the other steps like it says.
16 - Open Google Play Store and disable automatic updates. Close it.
17 - Reboot again.
18 - Open Google Play Store, open Google Maps. If everything is working and without annoying notifications, uninstall HuaGu, Google Service Assistant and that backup restore app. Also, go to your downloads folder and there should be a bunch of APKs that were used during the tutorial. You can delete those as well. Turn off Developer Settings if you don't use them.
Congrats!!! You should have GMS on your device!! I only tested with Maps because it's the only app I really care about that needs GMS to be work so I can use all its features.
Thank you badmania98 and Average Logs!

I am unable to make a backup with Huagu pc app. And I suspect that is because I have FW10.1.0.121 and data transfer and fast charge is disabled, right?
Help much appreciated. Thx
The guide that I posted on the top doesn't work for me anymore - Device not certificated errors. It stopped working around last November. However, today I found a tutorial that works:
So new Tutorial:
Link here
WHAT I DID DIFFERENTLY:
1 - His version is 10.1.0.134 but I'm still on 10.1.0.176 (superior) and it worked.
2 - Maybe because of that, the process of Backup & Restore doesn't worked. The password isn't "icfix1net" anymore, it's "a12345678" or whatever is in the password tip. Still, couldn't restore. So I skipped opening that chinese app.
3 - Google Play Store didn't installed - said it's already installed (which isn't). I continued anyway.
4 - From this point forward I did everything like the tutorial except the parts that involve Google Play Store and the activation of syncing contacts.
5 - Uninstalled the Backup & Restore app.
6 - Done.
Notes:
- If you want to install apps just use the Aurora Store. It uses the apps from Google Play Store so it's safe. I installed Google Maps from there to do the testing.
- Google Play Store is what actually messes everything up because it updates itself and GMS. Either don't install it or block its access to the Internet (you can do that in the settings or use a firewall or whatever).
- If this doesn't work, try to follow the whole tutorial. Who knows. Like I said in the beginning, this is what worked for me.
- If you need to downgrade there are links in the video description, plus there's a lot of tutorials there on XDA for that.
Side note: If you noticed, he has a P40 Pro with unlocked bootloader. I don't know what's the point since there isn't root or custom ROMs available, but it can be done (probably paying). Mine is NOT and it doesn't make a difference in the process.
Good luck everyone !
EDIT: Late reply to everyone:
- Yes, the Google account is in the Settings.
- This new tutorial doesn't use the PC so try this.
- About all firmware questions I can't really answer. I have 10.1.0.176 and never done a downgrade. I simply never updated after that and always disabled the auto updates.
