How to unlock Huawei EMUI mode

Mondo Technology Updated on 2024-02-27

Huawei's EMUI mode usually refers to the EMUI operating system (i.e., Emotion UI) used by Huawei mobile phones, which is a custom user interface developed by Huawei based on Android. If you want to "disable EMUI mode", it may mean reverting to the native Android system, disabling certain EMUI-specific features, or exiting a specific EMUI operation mode (such as one-handed mode, glove mode, etc.). Here are some possible actions and solutions:

If your phone is in EMUI's Easy mode, you may want to switch back to standard mode

Open the Settings app.

Swipe to find and select "System" >Easy Mode".

Select "Standard Mode" and then tap "Apply".

If you want to turn off specific features in EMUI (e.g. Smart Assist, Gesture Control, etc.):

Open the Settings app.

Depending on the function you want to modify, find the corresponding settings, such as "Smart Assist", "Accessibility", etc., and adjust them.

If you want to change EMUI's interface to make it closer to the native Android experience, you can try installing a third-party launcher:

From the Google Play Store or other app stores** and install a third-party launcher (e.g. Nova Launcher, Pixel Launcher, etc.).

Open the installed launcher app and follow the prompts to set it as the default launcher.

If you want to completely replace EMUI and use the native Android system, this usually requires unlocking the bootloader and flashing in the native Android ROM developed by a third party. This operation carries a high level of risk and may result in data loss, device damage, or void warranty

Make sure to back up all your important data.

Unlock the bootloader of Huawei devices (this may violate Huawei's warranty terms, and some **Huawei devices may not be officially unlocked).

Look for native Android ROMs that fit your device model, such as LineageOS, etc.

Follow the detailed ROM flashing guide to do it.

There are risks associated with modifying system settings or flashing, so make sure you fully understand the possible consequences and risks before proceeding.

Unlocking the bootloader and flashing your device may void your warranty.

Before making any system-level modifications, be sure to back up all important data.

If you have a specific grievance or problem that needs to be addressed with your EMUI system, perhaps there is a simpler solution that eliminates the need for complex system modifications.
