There are a few sketchy things going on around there. When we first talked about how Google services and apps cannot be installed on the Huawei Mate 30 series of smartphones, a few things happened. One of which is the appearance of something called LZPlay, which we should describe it simply as the “Google apps and services injector”. This service injects the Google play services and apps into the Mate 30 series and it worked like a smartphone with Google services.
Not too long ago, LZPlay service was taken down and it no longer works. The full story is a technical drama.
We should first talk about the backdoor that is open in the Huawei Mate 30 series. There are also two more undocumented permissions that are granted by the backdoor too, which further raised suspicion.
John Wu published his findings, LZPlay.net was taken down and all Mate 30 series that had Google services installed via LZPlay no longer passes SafetyNet tests. This SafetyNet test tells if your device complies with Google’s standard of security.
Damien Wilde from 9 to 5 Google has stated that since his Mate 30 Pro failed the SafetyNet test, Google Pay no longer works.

This whole technical drama seems like a master plan that got foiled by John Wu. Think about it this way – who is the creator (or owner) or LZPlay.net? Why does LZPlay know how to use the backdoor in Mate 30 series of smartphones? Also, did Huawei certify and allow LZPlay to use those backdoors?
For all we know now, Google apps cannot be sideloaded via LZPlay. Perhaps there are still other ways, but we still do not know anything as of now.
