Android safe mode is a hidden system function that allows us to start the phone in a basic boot mode. What this menu does is disable all unnecessary processes and applications on the system and activate only those that are required to start up. The problem is that this menu can be activated by certain applications accidentally when they cause a problem, something that can occur on any device, regardless of the brand or version of Android. Interestingly, the way to activate and deactivate the safe mode in Huawei and Honor through the EMUI options is something different than usual. This time we will show you how to proceed in a simple way.
This is how you can activate safe mode on Huawei and Honor
As we just mentioned, activating the safe mode on Huawei requires a somewhat different process than on Android. First, we will have to completely turn off the device until it stops responding. With the mobile off, we will press and hold the following key combination until a menu similar to the one in the image below appears:
- Volume Up + Power
Now we just have to select the Safe Mode option. The phone will then start to reboot. Once the system is started, only the basic applications of the phone will be displayed, that is, those that came from the factory.
With this, we can disable or uninstall any application that we have recently installed and that is generating conflicts of any kind in the system. We can do it through the Applications section in Settings, as well as in the System Files application.
How to disable safe mode on Huawei
Disabling safe mode in EMUI is as simple as restarting the phone following the usual process. In case the mode remains active once the system has been restarted, from tuexperto.com we recommend that you completely turn off the terminal and turn it on through the relevant button. We also recommend that you delete any files or applications that we have recently added to the device, as they may be the cause of the system being stuck in this mode. This is the case of certain applications downloaded from unofficial sites.
My Huawei mobile does not exit safe mode, what can I do?
It may be the case that the mobile stalls in this mode permanently. At this point, the only solution is to completely restore the system, a process that will eliminate all the files and applications that are in the device's storage - which is why we recommend making a backup copy -.
To carry out this process as cleanly as possible, we recommend that you start the terminal by applying the combination of keys mentioned above. Once inside the boot menu, we will click on Clear data to delete all the information. When the process is finished, we will have to configure the phone again with the Google or Huawei account that we have entered at the time of starting the system for the first time. Otherwise, we will not be able to use the device.
