6. Install GMS core Packages on brand-new Huawei

GMS services have to be installed in /system. To be able to install anything in /system, you have to either unlock the bootloader of your smartphone ('clean' way) or root your smartphone ( would irty' way). After unlocking the bootloader, you need a recovery that can install the GMS zip package. I only know TWRP. So: 1. Is your bootloader unlocked? Search google to find out: - how to check if your bootloader is unlocked (on your device or similar devices) - how to unlock it (search on your manufacturers website) 2. Do you have a recovery that can install zip packages? TWRP would be such a recovery. Search google to find out: - how to boot into recovery on your device (to find out if a suitable one exists) - how to flash a suitable recovery with fastboot ("flash recovery fastboot") Good luck!

The ban, which had been anticipated, hamstrings the world's largest provider of networking gear and No. 2 smartphone vendor. ".

9. With Donald Trump's decision, is Huawei as a company finished?

Trump's decision in the end will most likely help Huawei.Last count I read (not keeping close track) was 30 countries had signed up with more the $100B in revenue to be generated. Since Trump is trying to force countries to reject Huawei it is having what seems to be the opposite impact. Other countries do not like being forced to follow US directives and it would appear since they have listened and that the evidence is weak that they need to fear their products. UK & Germany are examples where they are pushing back on him. Spain recently agreed to use Huawei.So no they are not finished
