Note: Rooting your device may bring unexpected negative impacts, so please be careful. If the device cannot work properly and cannot be restored, you shall bear responsibility.

If your device has been rooted, you can use HiSuite or the system restoration mode to restore the system.

Recovering the system may erase your personal data. If your device can be powered on, remember to back up your data immediately.

Use HiSuite to restore your phone

  • Some devices do not support system restoration using HiSuite. Please refer to the actual device specifications.
  • If your device supports this method, update HiSuite to the latest version on your computer before using it. You can download it from the official website: https://consumer.huawei.com/en/support/hisuite/.
  • For details, refer to the following:
    1. Install HiSuite on your computer.

      2. Press and hold the Volume down button and Power button at the same time for several seconds to enter Fastboot mode (the robot screen). (If your device does not have physical volume buttons, press the Power button ten times consecutively until the screen turns on.)

    3. Start system restoration.
      1. Go to HiSuite > System restoration > Continue > Start.
