Anyone with HBO (nordic) got their app working? I wrote them and they replied the following (translated with google):
Unfortunately, I can tell that Huawie phones do not support our app, so we can not guarantee it will work.
I have tried both resolutions, with and without the notch, both normal and forced full screen, but can't get it to work!
Hope someone can help
Hello ,
I got my subscription for HBO GO trough Telekom Romania. And for me at least it works without any special actions taken by me. Resolution set to full , the app didn't ask me for full screen view.
Hope it helps .

Maybe it's just the HBO Nordic app. Guess I'll write Huawei hoping for them to fix it. Thanks for your feedback.
You're welcome. Hope they fix it.

Got the same Phone and the same problem with the same app (Just HBO Nordic, everything else works like a charm). I've tried to reset app, uninstall/reinstall, factory reset etc, etc... Nothing works. Please keep me updated!
Try turning the Notch off and set it to standard Full Screen.. then try it...
Like the iPhone X, the Notch creates an irregular screen ratio... This happens on Netflix too...

Great suggestion, but unfortunately this didn't work for me. Tried to clear cache and data, but still no luck. Even tried reinstalling, but same result.
I am be able to use the HBO app (from Google Play market) until today... Now closed when log...
Rgs.
Try deleting Google play service cache or memory.

Unfortunately this didn't work as well.
Possible solution
Hi. Just solved this on my Huawei P20 pro with some help from Huawei's support. You have to erase not only Google play services cache but also all its data.
Go to:
1. Settings
2. Apps and notifications
3. Apps
4. Find and choose ”Google play services"
5. Click on ”Storage”
6. Click on "manage space"
7. Click on ”clear all data"
Done!
You might have to redo this everytime you restart your phone. Huawei told me that they are working on the issue as I write this.

@paunchygent thanks. I had done this for something else, Fitbit, and noticed by mistake that it seemed that HBO was working again. Seems that the P20 have a problem with the "Google play services".
Thanks! Now I got HBO working! My weekend is saved
I had the same problem with DR TV app (the Danish equivalent to BBC) as well as the HBO Nordic app. I guess it's related to the Chromecast-feature(?). Both solved by clearing Google Play Services-data. Thanks
I keep getting 505 error. Went through all of the Google play troubleshooting. I did a factory reset and managed to download the app. Set my phone back up again. But now I got the 505 error when trying to install an update to the amazon Alexa app. Deleted the app to try a fresh install and now can't get the app at all, just like before the factory reset. I shouldn't have to factory reset a brand new handset!
Anyone got any suggestions before I talk to Amazon? I know they're probably going to suggest the same trouble shooting as Google did, but I don't want to factory reset my phone again.
This is with a dual sim p20 pro bought in the UK from 3.

Thanks dude, definitely let me know how you get on. Another dude I know who got the p20 pro from 3 was able to download the app without any issue although I don't know about updating it. I really don't wanna try trouble shooting with Amazon and they're liable to be useless.

[UK unbranded sim free P20 Pro] So far identical issue with Amazon Kindle, Music & Prime Video apps. Made the mistake of uninstalling Kindle app while trying to resolve the issue! Although Amazon app updates are failing to be applied, Amazon apps copied from other phone under Google account during installation continue to function as long as you don't uninstall them!
Having the same problem myself driving me mad Any solutions yet?
hi, you can uninstall all of the pre-installed Amazon apps,such as Amazon shopping,Amazon kindle...and then reinstall the apps in Google play store,does it work?
Uninstalling the stock installed android apps (shopping was the only one I had left) and reinstalling from the play store fixed this for me.
Yes removing all the amazon apps and re-installing worked Thanks
[Huawei P20 Pro CLT-L09 8.1.0.110 (C782)]
Confirm uninstalling ALL Amazon apps prior to individual reinstalls resolves issue. However, Prime Video install did appear to hang but showed as installed after system restart. I suspect that the apps I thought were installed by Google from my account were actually the apps pre-installed by Huawei. Not clear why all had to be removed before reinstalling though.
I am having the same issue and I am unable to uninstall them either as they are showing as system apps, how have you folks been able to uninstall and reinstall?
I can't install any Amazon apps. All give a 505 error except Amazon shopping which says my device isn't compatible. Amazon are looking into it and are awaiting a response from their developers.
Remove old amazon apps
Hi All, solution is removing one by one apps from amazon and trying installing one you want, this solution works 110%, as I tried on few phones, not just p20 pro and workes always.
Amazons Echo Dot and non-connection to Huawei p20 pro
cant get p20 pro to connect to Echo Dot, any ideas?? as cant get dot connected to wifi apart from via Amazons Alexa phone app, it just wont connect. Have tried the dot with another phone (iphone8+) and works no issues but cant get it to connect with p20 pro, HELP !!!!!
The weird thing in my phone is that most of the times that I open amazon app (the normal one) I get a msg through amazon that I have to update the app. When I click update now I then get another one that the phone is not supported. Weird stuff..

Hi....
For 2 months i bought, a Mate 20 Lite.
I'm pretty satisfied. The problem is that the original musicapp seems to have a bug !?
Every time I open the app, the music always starts at the first song and never at the last heard. Is a bit annoying with over 100 songs and more.
So I contacted HUAWEI support I tried the following:
App reset - works 2-3 times and that's it
Device completely reset to factory settings - same result
Telephone manager uses - as well
HUAWEI say´s I should send my device to the support.
Has everyone the same problem?
Why I used this app is, for me is this app ok and you can neither deactivate nor uninstall it.
Android 8.1 as software
Update currently
Mg Siggi
Hello,
Why you don't install another player from play store? You've some free great options.
Cheers.

As it's a Huawei app, it's going to be full of bugs that have existed for years. This appears to be no exception. It would be best to move to another app.
Brothers, I am getting desperate, my flagship is not functioning properly.
What is the problem?
Since 2 weeks ago, Chrome started freezing in all instances, when opened directly, when opening a link from any app, when clicking tiles in google (also google app freezes some times)
How I tried to solve it?
Restarting phone
Clearing cache
Giving all permisiions to all google apps
Reinstalling the system (with backup)
Reinstalling the sistem (clean install)
Upgrading to EMUI 9.1 and updating Chrome (today I got an update)
Absolute nothing is working, Chrome is freezing like clockwork, for example when I scroll a page, it lets me scroll 1-2 screens then freezes or freezes from the beginning or would just not open , freezes in the loading page screen. It freezed even when the phone was loaded only with the basic apps, after reinstalling.
I was thinking of buying the Mate 30 pro or the P30 pro but now I am very seriously doubting I would.
All other apps are working, now when I want to browse I copy the link from Chrome to Firefox (usually it would not freeze right away after opening a link and it is letting me copy the wep address) but one can imagine that is not OK.
Please...someome with the same problem and/or a solution?

Try beta or canary to see if the problem persists. Check dev options and change the WebView option to either chrome stable or whatever version you want to test.

Thanks a bunch for the answer, I installed canary but it would not let me change the WebView implementation , it says "the choice is no longer valid, try again later" although both chrome and canary seem to be available. What I changed tho, is the "enable mulți process WebView" toggle, which is now active and it seems to have worked, at least atm.

Yes, beta option was available, with the same message when I tried to enable it.
No change anyway after I toggled that in developer options , all chrome instances keep freezing the same way.
I installed microsoft launcher and use Bing now as a search engine and when I want to open a link from gmail II copy-paste it in Firefox.
So annoying.
Hello guys!
After I updated my P40 Pro to 10.1.0.154, Google Mobile Services not working, so I had to reset my phone.
No more GMS.
I only need Android Auto.
Any new solution to install GMS or a modified Android Auto?
Which method did you use to update? Which method had you followed for gms and when?

hi, first You have to downgrade to 131. After that You can update but .... sometimes ( once a day) You have to uninstall Google Services ( clear data ect. ) and install again, same with Google framework ( clear data, stop service, uninstall and install) sometimes You have to do it only one time, sometimes few times. However when google Play magicly discover that You have old google services Play stops working, but everything else work ( gmail, calender, youtube, android auto, ect.) And this is my question, yestarday I've discovered that when I install new google services everything is working but I get info about not certifie phone ( this device is not google certify ). Has anyone discovered method how to avoid this ?

The only workaround I found is to freeze gsf and only unfreeze when I want to update all apps in play store. When frozen, everything works properly except playstore, yet no any errors and push notifications work fine.

Unfortunately freezing has to be done via pc. Unfreezing can be done from the phone. But I do it once a week at the office so no prob.
I am using multitool 8 software to do that. If you need instructions let me know.

I have no problem freezing/unfreezing from pc every week to check for updates. Push notifications are more important.

-You can download the tool here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/development/tool-huawei-multi-tool-team-mt-t3523923
Sorry I do not have the app on front of me so the description will be vague..
-After you install it you connect the phone to the pc
-you might be prompted that the phone is not compatible with the tool, however when you connect it in 'transfer files' mode the tool will recognize the device
-after you see the device data in home screen you go to modifications tab
-in the middle of the screen it says show system processes, you find android gsf on the list and just click disable
-that's it!
The enabling part can be done directly from your device settings.

Thanks a lot buddy! Now whatsapp notifications are working, but not Gmail. Does Gmail or Youtube notifications work for you? Or do I have to use another email app for gmail?
Sorry for all these questions, have had my p40 pro over 2 months now, I really want to start using it....:fingers-crossed:

Youtube notifications work, dunno though if there is any delay on them, I am only receiving notifications from my subscribed channels..
Gmail notifications are the only ones not working properly, meaning there is a big delay on the notification.. I would put my Gmail in the email app of the phone, or even outlook (outlook works for sure coz I am receiving maybe 1000emails per day at work hahah)
That aside, all other Google notifications work, I am being notified for weather, news, etc..
The only thing I cannot make work is the usual Google cards feed which I was used to in my previous phone (by swiping to the left home screen)

FYI, I even restored my backup from my p20 pro to my p40 pro (except phone settings) and not problems whatsoever, so if your previous phone was a huawei you might give it a shot [emoji39]

May i suggest to try out IceBox, (with shizuku to replace root) for this purpose. I don't have the phone myself, but reading this it seems perfect for exactly this.
Shizuku can allow apps like IceBox and AppOps to function without the need of root or manual adb actions, and IceBox allows you to automatically freeze apps after usage again and launch them from the homescreen icon directly, automatically unfreezing it and freezing it again after you stop using it.

Icebox requires clean installation I think (in order to enable God mode or something?), tried to do this at some point but I could not reset again my phone so I use the multitool method.. [emoji23]

Nah, IceBox just needs a method to access the secure settings. This can be done with either root, Island delegated god mode or shizuku.
Root is out of the picture for huawei, island would be relatively easy to setup since huawei does not use the multi-user interface AFAIK. Minimal chance of data loss.
Shizuku just need developer options enabled and Wireless ADB enabled if you want to use it without a pc, or alternatively just over a regular usb/ADB connection. I'm using IceBox on my stock OnePlus 8 Pro with shizuku. Never lost any data and took like 30 seconds to setup, no pc involved

I may try Shizuku to see if it works. It will just save me from the hassle to plug my phone to my work pc every week to update it.. [emoji23] I think that after every reboot you have to do the same procedure, correct?
