I'm going to buy a Huawei Mate 30 Pro, but as Google Services are not supported officially on Huawei mate 30, is there a way to like side-load it? :thinking::thinking:
 
But as far as I know, there has not been any effective solution to side-load google till now. The lzplay method was disabled this month.

But the other Huawei phone models such as Mate20/10, P30/20/10, ... still work well with Google Play Services.

Their existing devices that came with Google Play, I don't believe are affected and are still supported. It's only Mate 30 and any other subsequent phones.

My PRC variant Mate 10 didn't come with Google, but I installed it myself right from Huawei's own app store. However I found that coulnd't be done with a P20 I was looking at.

I'm still happy with the Mate 10, and will likely keep using it until next year. And then looking get a international Samsung S10+ possibly, when I'm in the UK.

I am sure that P20 can work fine with Google Play because it has stock Google Service Framework. In fact, I have helped so many P20 users to get their P20 working well with Google Play.
The only question is that Huawei's own app store made all Google apps unavailable in September this year. Then the launch icon of Google Play Store disappeared from your P20 home screen. But this is not a problem at all for us. :D

This was in a local Huawei showroom back in May, I'm friends with the staff there. I tried to install Play from AppGallery on a demo P20 they had, and it just crashed. I didn't do any further investigation, that was about the time I thought about having a Samsung instead. No Huaweis in China have the Google Play icon on their EMUI launcher.

I see that in the AppGallery on my own Mate 10, that all Google apps have now been removed, and that was where I installed Play from in the first place. But it's still on my phone, and is still working with a VPN.
