M20X and keeping it
Try to use some sharing apps like Shareit or Transfer Wizard,etc. to both android phones. You can transfer files including Apps from one android to android lets say Samsung to Huawei knowing that they're still under the same OS. You can keep the .apks on your internal storage and simply install it anytime you want. It also works from iPhone to Android but works only with pictures/media can't install apps.
Europe’s biggest phone company identified hidden backdoors in the software that could have given Huawei unauthorized access to the carrier’s fixed-line network in Italy, a system that provides internet service to millions of homes and businesses, according to Vodafone’s security briefing documents from 2009 and 2011

s-pen pusher, 27 May 2019the "uncertain platform" he was referring to a new os huawei may work with to replace android.... moreIt is not uncertain platform because android apps will work 6x faster on new OS. It is actually an upgraded android with no spyware from google.
Anonymous, 27 May 2019LOL people you don't have to be afraid of no updates.. I've been using my A916 with Android 4.... moreAgree. I'll buy a P30 or P30 pro if there is a discount. Never own a huawei phone but it is time to get one lol.
LOL people you don't have to be afraid of no updates.. I've been using my A916 with Android 4.4.2 Kitkat till today.. No problem.. Social apps works fine.. Navigation apps works fine.. Games works fine.. Web browser works fine.. Multimedia editing works fine.. Document editing works fine.. What more would you ask for from your device? I'll be getting the Mate 20/P30 Pro if the price is low enough.. And I'm sure it will last me at least 5 years even with no update.. Even if the connection to Google Play is severed there are other app stores and sideloading apps is easy..
P/S: Update Mentality is just to force users to buy new phones every year.. If you have an older Android device in your stash try to power it on and use it.. You will be surprised
There's no alternative other than letting the chinese OEM inside USA because they already have 100's of millions invested in the machinery and R&D instead of letting them and now banning them american should'nt have collaborated with the chinese OEM they do this because they save a lot of money and simply ban the company when they get to know the truth chinese are always spying no matter what there's no electronics industry without china

Trump is the one that said that the ban can be lifted if he make a good deal with huawei. You can read this and you'll know that trump didn't ban huawei because of spying
"Huawei is something that’s very dangerous. You look at what they’ve done from a security standpoint, from a military standpoint, it’s very dangerous. So it’s possible that Huawei even would be included in some kind of trade deal. If we made a deal, I could imagine Huawei being possibly included in some form, some part of a trade deal."

Anonymous, 26 May 2019Uncertain platform? Oh really? Why non huawei users thinks that google services will stop work... morethe "uncertain platform" he was referring to a new os huawei may work with to replace android. the os huawei has been developing for several years now called "hongmeng" has never really took off because of lack of support from devs. attempts of other companies to put out alternative to android (i.e. sailfish, tizen) likewise died because of lack of support from devs, and some of these, unlike hongmeng, did see the light of day by being in marketed devices- thus "uncertain platform".
After moving to China I kind of paniced losing access to google services but after a year or two I couldn't really care.
Apps can still be downloaded and installed without play store.
The reason big companies screw over it's users is they become too big and rely on patents to corner the market. As long as android os plays nice people will follow. When they stars to screw around it will be the start of its downfall.

US government doesn't actually have substantial proof of what they are claiming that they are spying, on the contrary, the US spies on its people as well as other countries. As for proof? Take for example Edward Snowden, an CIA/NSA contractor who was a whistle-blower due to the fact that the US government spies its people.

More people should. I honestly wouldn't care if Huawei offered their ... moreWhy do u need hisuite to add music ! It's an Android not stupid iOS with iTunes crappy restrictions.
And I will give my p30 pro for free for anyone can name another phone with the same camera specially at night, speedy performance, quick charge and unbeaten battery life ... Just name it l and I will buy it and u will have a p30 pro for free.
Huawei better grandfather the phone by unlocking its bootlockers
but then again, this may open up their software for scrutiny
whoever thinks this matter will be resolved is stupid. Huawei already looking to partner up with other company to replace google and these people is hoping still. Thats what you get for supporting copy cat / spy company.
David, 26 May 2019So have a recent P30 and my Wife a p30 Pro, great camera. App store, well there is App Galler... moreYou don't need to replace these services because they won't be removed from your phone
[deleted post]This is well documented! The Americans have no reason to let these Chinese go. Too many countries are pushing the USA for a Chinese punishment.
So have a recent P30 and my Wife a p30 Pro, great camera.
App store, well there is App Gallery app store already on the phone and non US vendors can in theory post their apps to that.
Google maps, can be replaced with alternatives.
Mail, you do not need the gmail app to use an existing gmail account.
Google Duo, can be replaced with many of the non US alternatives, Wire and Viber for example.
And for OS, we have ASOP plus some alternatives and the one I really want to sre is Jolla Sailfish so dual OS is a nice possibility.
For chips, Huawei can source memory from elsewhere in china or TSMC can start making it it can also. Of concern to others should be Chinas response to this ban which could have a mich bigger impact, remember almost every device is assmbled in China so it can be if needed ask the Govenment just take what it needed without paying.
