      It appears that Google has reversed direction:

      https://www.cnbc.com/2019/05/21/google-will-work-with-huawei-for-next-90-days-after-restrictions-eased.html

      So, at least for the next 90 days they claim they will be attempting to work out a deal. I think someone wnet, "Oh crap!, $11 billion in US chips sales down the toilet!"

        No, the US reversed the decision to ban immediately.

        Thus seeing Google reverse, also, means that Google was pushed to do so because of the US.

          Or more importantly, that the US Fed has.

            And it's obvious that Google wants to do vendor lock-in as much as possible. And they try to do it with their apps and services. So it would probably just be a good thing for everyone to have vendors break out of google's grip.

            Yeah, so much good could come from this.

            There are other alternative stores as well... Amazon's Android App store (never had any issues with the apps I have in there)... F-Droid seems to be pretty good too. Just always be careful what you install when it's not from Google's Play store!

              Friend went to upgrade her phone the weekend. She went to carphone warehouse and was adviced to stay clear from them. The sale guy also said people who had recently bought ones are bringing them back for refunds.

              I recently saw a statement from Huawei saying they don't blame Google for this mess

                Mi brother works in Huawei (Spain branch )

                He told me the spanish employees are nervous but the the Chinese are very calm.

                Huawei have the most advanced 5g technology and at least Europe need this technology.

                  Everyone needs it. But we suspect that the US will just fall behind. That might, in fact, be the goal.

                    I love the talk of 5g when theres a lot of the UK that cannot even make 2G phone calls. We don't have enough cell towers in non city areas of the UK, I can barely make phone calls where I live.

                      US, especially Texas, has been banking pretty heavily on 5G to fix a lack of good landlines. That's a major problem now, our "right around the corner" rollout of 5G is no longer in the works.

                        One thing I don't get yet is my have Xiaomi, Umidigi and other manufactures from that side of the world not been effect by all this stuff with the US?

                        My thoughts would be if the government have been asking Huawei to but spying/data harvesting stuff in gear wouldn't they be asking all manufacturers?

                          If they go after "all" it would over expose the falseness of the whole thing.
