I noticed there is not a forum for the LG G-pad 7.0 for some reason... is it lack of desire to develop on this platform?
I have the 7.0 G-Pad and love the device. Its the perfect size for texting and email replies, in fact I now rarely pull my phone out for these tasks, I do them all on the tablet...
So I wanted to jump on here and see if anyone could answer a question for me in regards to the 7.0 version of the G-pad (I know I'm in the wrong forum but there isn't a 7.0 area)
I have rooted my 7.0 G-pad and thus far left the oe rom on it, mostly because there isn't a forum here for this device. I have a couple apps that I use on a frequent basis on my phone but the play store will not allow me to D/L them on the tablet. It says "Designed for phones" when I search for them on the play store.
So my question is, What can I change on the build.prop (and to what) to trick play store into allowing me to D/L all apps, not just "tablet" apps......
I appreciate your time.
Any workaround for NFC working in EU?
We shall rise this question up. Since GT2, we did not get support of NFC outside of China region.
After I playing around the watch with several versions (current/old/beta) of China Huawei Health app, I believe it is a region and firmware lock on non-CN version GT2 Pro.
Basically, the app detect my GT2 Pro is saled in EU, so it provide the firmware update for EU model, even though the hardware inside all models should be the same (all have NFC chip).
The same issue comes with the 301 heart health app, which available for China model, and it allows the watch uses your heart rate data to diagnose premature atrial contraction and sleep apnea, which is a key feature advertised in China for these huawei smart bands and watches.
Again, you might guess, CN GT2 Pro model support this function. And my EU GT2 Pro was locked for this app to recognise.
Since Huawei EU offical state they will not support full NFC functions outside of China.
The only possible workaround is somebody with high skill, that able to flash Chinese firmware into EU model, which might unlock all these NFC cards, alipay, and heart health app functions. If that's still not working, then it will also required to trick the Huawei Health app to believe the EU model as a CN model.
I am not capable of doing these works, but people in this forum might be dig deeper into this topic.

Don't think that will be possible.. Don't understand huawei why they doin these restrictions..
It could be due to the restriction of certain regions, such as the functions of heart health app could be not approved by other country governments, as it is a feature related to human healthcare.
For example, it might require FDA approval to activate this function in USA, just like what Apple watch has done; likewise, the ECG function of apple watch is disabled in China model, because it did not gain the approval by the China government, but people still been allowed to flash US firmware to enable this feature on China model.
I don't have a EU huawei phone, so I am not sure how NFC of huawei phone is like. But I don't understand why NFC is not enabled in non-CN region, simply not make sense.
When you buy a product with its full function limited, Huawei just pissed off its customers, the fault of terrible closed ecosystem.
A small update on heart health app:
I have to install the huawei Health app first to connect my watch to my phone; then install the Heart Health app. Fot CN model, by that time, the second app will automatically connect to your phone-linked watch. But for my situion, what this app said to my watch is: the app does not support current version of this watch. So it is not connecting to my watch.
However, if I using a older beta version of Huawei health app, to connect to my watch; the Heart Health app can actually connected to my watch, but it is not able actually to perform the diagnose, showing error when activated.
So I suspect there are two major problems await resolve.
First, that is a software lock based on newer version of Huawei Health app, which refuse the EU watch to connect to Heart Health app.
Second, the firmware provided to EU model is missing the code for proper heart health function (and of course the rest functions like NFC). So must have Chinese firmware flushed into the watch. And surprisingly, it has multi. language support. What a strange decision.
I own a GT2 not pro, i don't know if anyone is still reading, bear with me if I say something stupid because I'm a complete amateur but I think this could be useful. I think the options are there but hidden. For example two weeks ago I purcheased a watchface i liked with dual timezone but I can't find the option in the menu to set it, some watchface are customizable and I came across another one orribile but that allowed me. I tried to set the timezone and it changed to the one I set on the other face as well. Today I found by chance one that had the alipay logo on it so I decided to experiment and purchased it (you can look it up on the store, it is called "little summer night"). The face doesn't allow you to customise the shortcuts but the alipay one seems to actually work, I don't speak Chinese and the English language in the alipay app is beta so the bare minimum is translated but it seems i was successful in pairing the watch.
Yes, indeed. After successfully access Alipay via certain watchface, now, the only missing part is nfc.

Good (Ciao da Rio Saliceto )
Hello!:
I have been running my Firetv2 with a rooted Sloane rom, based on Lollipop (I know its old). Until a couple of weeks ago the Discovery+ apk for the android tv (1.0.2) was running fine on it, it did not complain about google play services not being installed. Now running the app stops when it asks to update. The update, of course, fails.
I have a later version (1.20.5) of the android tv apk which installs fine on the box. Loads, but stops when it throws an error message when it sees google play is not installed..
I am willing to pay or donate (name what you think reasonable) if I can get a Discovery apk which will run without looking for google, and which will pass the login screen for Discovery. I do have a paid subscription.
I know this will take some time and I do not expect the work done for a typical play store price, it means a lot to me to keep google off my devices!
Please pm or post any thoughts.
Thank you!
Is anyone able to retrieve the Google Kids Space APK for the Mi Pad 5? Understand it's not officially released for this tablet, but surely workable?
Not really. And family link doesn't work too, I have login loop on device. Unfortunately it seems to be MIUI problem.
I was happily using Filmic Pro on my OP9Pro and then they changed it to Subscription model, which made me downgrade to Filmic Legacy.
But unfortunately Filmic Legacy dont work on OP9Pro, I have contacted Fimlic support and they have informed that there is some issues with OP and the manufacturer needs to address this.
I am using LE2127, anyone else facing the same issue? how do i find a work around. what all do you guys need to find a solution?
Device is network unlocked, I can get bootloader my unlocked, my knowledge is somewhere between above entry level to early mid level in using tools, although its been a while since I did something with my phone, I beleive I will pick things up fast.
I've done all the regulars including permissions, re install, clear cache, clear storage.
Tried different resolution, bitrate
NB: Filmic Pro v7 works good
