Google Play was installed out of the box. i downloaded all apps through there.
-google contacts not syncing.
-i get no push notifications like from the Ring app, youtube or ESPN. i did tap on allow when i first opened the apps.
-is there any way to get google news to appear when i swipe left on home screen?
google photos, maps, play store, stadia all seem right.
maybe there’s a solution. i read through older threads and didn’t find one.
any help appreciated.
I noticed that the preinstalled play store sometimes does not work properly. I had to reset device completely. Play services are part of the rom and available right after reset, I just had to download and install the play store itself.
Google Play Store 25.5.27-21 [0] [PR] 375135971 (nodpi)

As for notifications, you might wanna disable or delete the power save app from vivo and enable staying connected all time.
If you factory reset your phone, the first app to download from the vivo appstore is Gboard, which will prompt you to download Google play. I logged in to my google account afterwards and have no issues syncing to all my contacts, calendars etc
For notifications not appearing, a lot of users experience problems with the vivo provided power management app (com.vivo.pem) cause it interferes with how your apps sends notifications or frequency of push notifications to save power. You may use adb to disable it or uninstall. Hope this workaround addresses your push notification issue
i fixed the contacts and calendar (also had no calendar entries) sync issues. i went to APKMirror.com through chrome and downloaded the latest Google Play Store. I had version 24... on my phone and the latest was 26... I installed it through chrome and it installed over the existing app. I uninstalled calendar and contacts and re-installed them. calendar worked immediately on opening. but contacts didn’t. i went back to APKMirror.com and downloaded and installed Google Contacts Sync. I now have my contacts.
to get the push notifications working I went to Settings -> Applications and Permissions -> Permission management -> Permission - Background pop-ups and none of my installed apps were toggled on. since enabling them, I have received a couple of notifications with the phone in my pocket. maybe the vivo power management app is still causing problems because im not getting most notifications.
can someone point me to learn about "adb". I've seen that in a few places here and i don’t know what it is. im a long long time android user since google's first t-mobile phone but ive never had a need to tweak.
thanks for the help so far. just need to get my notifications and im pretty much all set.
so my only goal today was to install adb on my mac and "learn" how to use it and hopefully disable com.vivo.pem
installed on mac, enabled developer mode on x60, have access to device...
using: adb shell pm disable com.vivo.pem I got an error message
using: adb shell pm disable-user com.vivo.pem i got a successful prompt
when charging my phone and having the apps opened in the background (ESPN, Ring, Fast Mail) I do get push notifications. also get them while using the phone with the apps open in background. but with phone sleeping and in my pocket i get nothing. any ideas?
my issues are basically resolved. hopefully this will help others. I read in another thread to enable "mobile data always on" in the developer settings. as long as i have the apps open in the background, i now get push notifications when the phone is sleeping and in my pocket.
Which carrier are you using in the states? And do you have volte or vowifi?
im using it with tmobile. i don’t know how to check for volte or vowifi. i don’t actually use for phone calls. maybe make 1 or 2 calls a year. lol

I have a stock HTC one
all I have done is freeze some of the apps as per the list on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1681729
Sadly I left the email setup to last ( having set up all the contacts, apps etc) and the mail prog seems to be crashing.
I could just manage to set one account at and received a test email, which I could reply to but that's it.
when I open it it is incredibly slow and I cant get the menu button to work , the back button also doesn't work.
eventually I get a message saying that mail has stopped working.
I will try enabling everything and see if that makes it work but I thought I would ask here if anyone had experienced such problems or knew of a cure
thanks

Not an answer to your question but try Aqua mail.

Hi
Am I ended up doing a hard reset
Added mail accounts and all was fine
Disabled bloat, checked mail, all good.
Added games, checked all good.
Added apps. Checked all good.
That was 4 hours ago and it's happening again
Any ideas
Thanks
disabling apps may result to other apps crashing because it may be dependent on that app.
I was quite careful about what apps ive disabled and am pretty sure that is not whats causing it ,I checked it after I disabled the apps and it worked fine (for a few hours)
The only thing I can think of is one of the apps I downloaded. But I am hesitant to think its that as all the apps were installed on my sensation and the mail was fine
The only apps that required the "non authorised apps" warning were mm tracker and quick office pro so I have disabled them and restarted the phone. I then e mail tried the mail prog
still no joy
the thing is even if I enable all the disabled apps it still doesn't work
I know that I can get another app but that doesn't help my ocd about setting the phone up
after rebooting and loading apps I found that DW contacts was causing the crash
hard reset and re load of all apps except dw and all is good
I have a rooted KFHD7. SW is 7.4.3. I followed this thread to install Google Apps, and that thread essentially directed me to install these apps:
Account And Sync Settings-2.3.4.apk
Google Login Service-4.0.3-239410.apk
Google Play services-3.1.59 (736673-34) .apk
Google Play Store-4.1.10.apk
Google Services Framework-4.0.4-338691.apk
Vending.apk
I also installed Hangouts, Google+, etc.
Anyway, all my Google apps and Google push notifications are working fine. When I install the GMail apk (I just click it via ES File Explorer and I do not move anything to /system/app). it installs just fine. Upon launch of the app, it indicates that it is syncing, but never actually syncs. It just hangs (I waited several minutes).
I tried the latest GMail in the Play Store. I also tried version Gmail_4.5.2-714156.apk.
One I get GMail installed, my KFD will have all the GApps that I want on it. Any advice? Maybe I am using the wrong version or the wrong installation technique?
Thanks...

Have you tried it with notifications turned off? If it works then, then you're hitting a crash bug when Gmail tries to create notifications. There are a few fixes around the forums. If it still doesn't, I'm not sure what the deal is. It should sync fine.

Well, I installed the latest GMail from the Play store, then turned off notifications. Still looked like it was syncing... then... it worked. I see my email.

Yes, I did that too. So my GMail is now set to sync since I turned that on in the GMail settings.I also turned on notifications (within the Kindle App menu). Seems to be working just fine now and I have not experienced the issue with the notification bar... yet.
Just wondering if you anyone can confirm how "Huawei Contacts" can be disabled or removed without any issues. I have disabled it and tried alternative contacts apps like Exdialer, DW Contacts & Phone ....however, editing contacts or creating a new one does not work.
The reason I want to disable it as it may be one of cause of power drain on this phone. It has improved now after trying several issues like formatting sdcard, updating Google Play services, disabling other apps, etc.
Thanks,
B
Have you tried Gapps ? nandroid before ...and please report after
Thanks Vladi, I tend to disable all unnecessary Google apps even Google Play Having installed Google Contacts manually it works but forces you to save your contacts to the cloud (i.e. no local acount options). However, found a solution although not ideal - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fjsoft.mylocalaccount&hl=en (I use fjsoft Phone Manager in any way to install apps, etc). It also cannot import or export vcf file.
Thanks
Tried with Titanium?
How can I replace the huawei dialer with google app? and I want to use google contacts app as default as well.

Hi All
i'm on ZUI 2.1.140
Google Play works normal
i wonder how to import / sync google contact since on account & sync there is no Google Contacts options
Thanks
You just have to install this 3 apks in this order, Google Contacts Sync, Google Contacts and Google Play Store. Don't forget to install Google Play Services if you need it.
Here's what you need. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=93727
Calendar also does not work on my ZUI 2.5, how to fix it?

Looks like the sync adapter does take care of the syncing for the calendar, works for me after the sync status has completed. But you could always choose to install Google calendar from the playstore. Then open Zui calendar > settings > then change the default calendar to Google calendar.
I managed to sync the contacts, my only problem is, profile pics are not synced. I had one Rom installed from Franco, the Sync Adapter was preinstalled in this rom, sync was with Pics.
Now on zui 2.5, no chance to get the pics.

Mine stopped working after a couple weeks but I got it going again. Definitely a hassle, though.
A little background: After a lot of playing with Mokee 7.1.2 (CONSTANT hard freezes with blue LED making me miss my alarm the next morning), RR, AICP, etc. I decided to just try and make ZUI work for me between Magisk for root and Nova Launcher. I had brought up a clean install from QFIL flash of ZUI 2.5.335, flashed TWRP 3.1.0 (LR.Team version) to recovery, flashed 2.5.415 update zip, installed Google Play Store, Play Services, Contacts, and Contacts Storage from apkmirror.com and set about making it mine and disabling Chinese system apps and so on. Spent some time screwing with Safe Center (which thinks AdAway is a virus, but oh well), it was pretty livable. Only hard freezes if I use bluetooth with my car too long, which IS pretty annoying. But I've never had it freeze overnight and make me late for work, and hey, the camera Just Works, and U-Health is pretty cool.
Anyway, after about 3 weeks it was working pretty well for me, I miss some of the CAF/AOSP kind of things, but at least they're deploying security updates even if it's still Nougat 7.0 based. But then I noticed a week ago contacts stopped syncing. I could switch sync off & back on for Contacts but it wouldn't update. I tried wiping data for all the Google things and even deleting and re-adding Google accounts, but that just resulted in no more switch to tell it to sync Contacts. Dammit.
I DID get it working again today: I removed all the Google accounts from Settings, then uninstalled Google Play Store (com.android.vending), Google Contacts (com.google.android.contacts), and Google Contact Storage (com.google.android.syncadapters.contacts - I used Titanium Backup to uninstall the package since I bought that long ago), and deleted the updated Google Play Services apk from /data/apps (com.google.android.gms - use whatever file explorer with root access you like, I'm a fan of Mixplorer from XDA Labs but I'm sure ES File Explorer will work great). Rebooted. Gmail app doesn't know what to do with itself now.
I then reinstalled with Contacts 2.0.8, Contacts Storage 7.0 (API 24 target, woo; maybe this will work better than the newer 7.1+/API 25 target one that I tried before), Play Store 7.9.30, and Play Services 11.0.55 (240 version - Android 5.0+, ARM/ARM64 v8 abi, nodpi) from apkmirror.com and specifically made sure to give them all full permissions access instead of leaving it at the more paranoid "prompt" settings. I then was able to re-add my Google accounts and get Play store and Gmail and all the other Google apps to see them again with a little effort (basically had to re-do all the Google apps; Play Books, Play Music, Drive, Gmail, Calendar, etc.).
But contact sync seems to be working again, both for new contacts created through a computer web browser and created on the phone. I'm a little worried it's only temporary, I guess we'll see. But deleting Google accounts, full deleting 4 packages, and reinstalling with full permission access seemed to work.

How did you manage to sync contacts? And does anyone else have "ok google" greyed out?
I am on zui 2.5.435 st installed via QFIL, BL unocked, rooted Super SU. The sync initially worked but after a few days stopped working as well.
New setup works again. But if I click on "Refresh" in google calendar the Syncing does not stop. Do you have the same issue? There is something broken.
Why can't we just use openGAPPS?

What ever I try. The Sync will not work. I reinstalled the google accound many times. Deleted all google apps. Started with Contact app but whatever i try. It always says: This account already exists on your device. Somehow after installing Google Contacts Sync it downloaded 47 of the 1250 contacts to the phone. Its not visible in Google contacts. those contacts are the contacts I recently added in the last year. Online I see all my contacts. Why cant I find all other contacts on my phone? I even changed data restrictions. Set it on "no restriction" and cleared cash and all after deleting google account end tried all possible varieties of this.. Still no success in the Contact app.. Weird thing is that when I ask Google app verbally to call some of my contactst it works. So all the contacts are clearly still in my google acount and even linked to my voice command for dialing. Only the contact apps dont show them.. What is wrong here? Spend all night trying everythng. Nothing seems to work..
Hello Everyone. I bought the orange 512gb X70 Pro+ from TradingShenZhen, and overall I am satisfied (but not 100% happy) with the CN Rom phone (BTW if I have the chance to flash it with Funtouch Global OS, I would do (pay) it without hesitation!).
After I set it up for first time (english language, wifi connection, etc) I downloaded all google apps I think are necessary for me (drive, photos, play store, etc) and I logged in with my Google account in all of them, downloaded WhatsApp, banking apps, and others. Everything seemed to work well. Then I saw that the phone was not receiving some notificactions like WhatsApp automatically, so I found a Set Up "Guide" from a website that was in German (I google translated it) and follow the instructions to remove CN apps from the Phone, and after that the phone started to receive WhatsApp notifications even if the app is not open.
Not having the Hey Google feature, Android Auto, the Google search bar in the main screen, not having the ability to clone apps (android default feature). Or setting Google as default (phone, messages, gmail, calendar, calculator, chrome). Manually setting up permissions, notifications, removing CN apps, or changing settings in general... I still can live with it, taking in mind those should be done once per each factory reset only.
My only "problem" so far: going Back to Google (mainly Google Drive Backup), the phone is backing up WhatsApp chats, media files, contacts; BUT the phone is not backing up: Apps, SMS messages, and Device Settings. When I launch Google Drive app, and click on "back up now" it says "couldn´t backup data. Try again later", I have tried the disable screen locks, logging out, loggin back in, force stop, clear cache, rebooting, uninstall and reinstall Google Drive, backup from Google One (it is stuck at "Starting first backup..."), and the problem persists. Fortunately for me, most important data is backing up, because in a worst case scenario (if my phone is completely dead) I could restore Google Backed up data and then download all the apps from Play Store, log in, and set the device settings manually.
I hope this information helps in someway and also if you know another step I could try for the Google Drive backup issue, or if there is a reliable app that can create backup for Apps, SMS, and device settings; I would really appreciate You to let me know.
Have a nice day!

You cannot have "G" futures (Hey Google feature, Android Auto, the Google search bar in the main screen..) as all these apps are not system apps. In Chinese model only Google Play Services are system app, all other apps are installed on request.
