Regarding the previous revelation by Huawei Consumer Business CEO Yu ChengdongThe bootloader restrictions of the Mate 30 series may be opened, allowing users to use Google services through sideload loading. A Huawei spokesperson later clarified this, emphasizing that Huawei currently has no plans to lift the bootloader restrictions on the Mate 30 series.
Since removing bootloader restrictions is equivalent to removing the external security protection of Android phones, it will inevitably cause more problems in use. Therefore, Huawei corrected Yu Chengdong's earlier statement, emphasizing that there are currently no plans to open the bootloader restrictions for the Mate 30 series.
Compared to the versions sold in China, users overseas rely more on Google services. Therefore, due to the Sino-US trade competition, Huawei can no longer obtain technical resources from Google for the Mate 30 series, making it impossible for the Mate 30 series to obtain Google mobile service certification.
However, earlier news confirmed that the Mate 30 series models can still use Google Play services through direct APK installation, but there are still issues such as stable execution and whether apps downloaded using Google Play services in this way can be installed smoothly.
In response to this, Huawei stated that it is a personal act for users to install any services on their mobile phones and Huawei cannot restrict this.
Judging from the current situation of the Mate 30 series, it is clear that users can continue to use Google services through specific methods, including projects such as Google Play. However, whether this method can continue to be accepted by consumers may face another wave of challenges.
However, Huawei's current approach is to allow users to install Google services on their own. On the other hand, it will also promote its own mobile services through its own product market share, thereby establishing Huawei's ownAppGalleryInternal service ecosystem.
