Google seems to recognize Huawei processors to prohibit the installation of Google App (Photo/Associated Press)
Due to the US business ban, even though Huawei mobile phones and devices can no longer build Google’s own App, users can still install Google App through various methods such as APK files provided by third parties, which is not completely unavailable.
However, a foreign netizen on Reddit pointed out that Google seems to have added a new detection method that will identify Huawei devices using Kirin processors and prompts that the “mobile phone processor/CPU” is incompatible.
Since most of Huawei’s main devices, such as the flagship P40 series, use the Kirin processor designed by HiSilicon, users are prohibited from installing Google App on Huawei devices equipped with Kirin processors, which has almost officially blocked Huawei mobile phones.
The user also pointed out that the main apps that will be blocked are the latest version of Google App, including Google Maps. In addition, this situation occurs on Huawei phones such as P30, P20 and P40, but if it is installed on Samsung phones, the situation is completely normal.
