Emui: all tricks for huawei and honor phones
Manufacturers are always customizing their interfaces, and with EMUI you can easily see the changes from the Chinese manufacturer. The user interface offers an experience that is different from the original Android. In this article, we’ll look at some features worth knowing to get the most out of your smartphone, be it Huawei P10
, Mate 10 Pro
or Honor View 10, to name just a few devices from the ever-growing Huawei/Honor family.
Important:
There may be slight differences between Honor and Huawei devices.
One of the advantages of EMUI is, without a doubt, the level of customization. Use your own photo as a background, organize apps in a separate tray, customize physical or virtual keys, rearrange the order of apps on screens to tailor the interface to your tastes and needs in just a few steps.

In progress
Honor 8A runs on Google Android 9.0 Pie operating system with EMUI 9.1 shell.
This is what the smartphone menu looks like when you turn it on for the first time. You can note a large number of pre-installed applications, but they can be completely removed, leaving only applications from Google and a few applications from Huawei.
In the settings you can activate the main menu with applications.
It is worth noting that the smartphone interface does not work very smoothly. Lags are noticeable even when simply surfing the smartphone menu. The problem is the slow RAM, which is only 2GB. For a modern smartphone this is no longer enough. Running resource-intensive games/applications significantly reduces operating and loading speeds.
The smartphone interface can be decorated with various branded themes.
There is a simple mode of operation, this is for those who do not want to bother with the settings.
You can assign specific actions to the fingerprint scanner. The scanner itself works very accurately and quickly.
Touch control buttons can be replaced with gestures.
I was pleasantly surprised by the ability to operate the radio without a connected headset.
The MediaTek processor – MT6765 (Helio P35) is responsible for the performance of the smartphone. The chipset has 8 ARM Cortex-A53 cores clocked at up to 2.3 GHz and an IMG PowerVR GE8320 GPU.
You can see the results of synthetic tests in these screenshots.
The high CPU temperature both at idle and under load is surprising.
The permanent memory in the smartphone is 32GB. In fact, there is only 21GB free, so most likely you won’t be able to do without a memory card. Well, the range of different sensors in a smartphone is not the maximum. You can fully install applications on a memory card.
The speaker volume for a call is very high. The sound is clear without distortion, the speaker does not produce noise at full volume. Sound in mono format. There is support for LDAC and HWA. The earpiece is also quite loud. The interlocutor can be heard perfectly, and there were no problems with speech reception and transmission. According to this indicator, HUAWEI/HONOR smartphones are among the best on the market.
Excellent work on navigation, all modern geolocation standards are supported.
Appearance
At retail, a smartphone costs less than 10 thousand rubles and this is quite a good price for a quite good smartphone. Three colors are available: gold, blue, black. In my review there was a version in gold design.
Honor 8A is a typical representative of the budget line of smartphones. But the smartphone doesn’t look cheap at all, despite the plastic frame around the perimeter of the body. The back of the smartphone is also made of plastic. Moreover, the back side has two textures in design. The left narrow insert is matte, and the right side is already glossy.
Despite the large screen of a smartphone, in some cases you can quite successfully use one hand. The body is slightly elongated diagonally, which compensates for the large size.
The corners of the case are strongly rounded. The edges of the smartphone are sloping, making it pleasant and comfortable to hold in your hand. The main camera protrudes slightly above the body. There is an LED flash underneath the camera. The fingerprint scanner is located at the top.
At the top end there is a 3.5 mm connector (mini-jack) and a hole for the first microphone.
On the right side there is a paired volume button and a power button.
At the bottom end there is a Micro-USB connector, a speaker for calls and a second microphone. Moreover, the microphone is hidden in an imitation of the right speaker.
On the left side there is a full-fledged slot for two nano SIM cards and a memory card.
Touch control buttons are located on the screen itself.
Screen matrix with rounded corners. And the screen itself is “frameless,” although the frames are quite wide, especially at the bottom.
The thickness of the smartphone is small.
The front camera is placed in a drop-shaped cutout. If for some reason you are not satisfied with this cutout, you can hide it with a black stripe. The speaker was placed at the junction of the top end and the screen. There is a status indicator that is hidden in the earpiece. There is also a proximity sensor and an automatic brightness sensor.
The screen matrix is covered with protective 2.5D glass. There is an oleophobic coating, but not the best. The build quality of the smartphone is excellent. There is a slight play in the mechanical buttons, but for the most part these are my personal nitpicks.
Overall, Honor 8A is quite a practical and convenient smartphone. There is no glass on the back side, the camera does not protrude particularly above the body, and the location of the scanner is very convenient. And on the front side there is already a protective film pasted.
You can use one of the following hidden features and tests by simply typing the following codes:
- Project menu *#*#2846579#*#*
you can check things like: version information, network information, plywood information, etc. - Testing *#*#6130#*#*
- *#*#0000#*#*
About the phone

- Calendar information *#*#225#*#*

- Google Play Service *#*#426#*#*
- IMEI *#06#
Proximity sensor
The proximity sensor is responsible for the sensitivity of the screen. Its breakdown or poor calibration can cause the following problems:
- The screen does not turn off when you touch your face.
- The phone may spontaneously unlock in your pocket.
- Accidental clicks occur.
This may happen after replacing the screen or due to a software error.
First, check if the sensor is turned on:
- Open system settings.
- Select the «Accessibility» or «Display» section.
- Find an item with a proximity sensor.
- If the lever is disabled, press it to activate it.
Honor does not have built-in tools for calibrating and resetting the proximity sensor. Use the “HiCare” or “Proximity Sensor Reset” applications from the Play Store. If they do not help, try resetting to factory settings or flashing the device.
Call recording
The fashion to ban everything has reached such a necessary option as recording phone calls. In EMUI 9.1 it seems like this feature is present by default. EMUI 9 also has a built-in call recording application (in the /cust/app folder), but in most regions it is simply blocked. The tested Honor 8C runs on EMUI 8.2. You can install the APK file as an application in the normal way without ADB and root.
Download the APK file from here or here and install it. It would be a good idea to first check the file in VirusTotal. After installation, the program is integrated into the standard “Phone” application. And to enable recording, when starting a conversation or during the process, you need to press the “Record” button, and the corresponding audio file is automatically saved in the folder with recordings of the same application.
In the settings after installing the APK, do not forget to enable the call recording function. The application is not official and you can install it only at your own peril and risk, there may be glitches with the disappearance of the SIM card!
How to clear the phone cache?
The standard method for clearing the cache on Honor 8C is as follows:
- Go to “Settings” — “Memory”.
- A window will open showing the user’s data, as well as how much space certain sections (for example, images, documents, applications, etc.) take up.
- Click the «Clear» button.
- A memory information window will open and items will be scanned for deletion.
- After scanning is completed, click “Clean” to delete all unnecessary files.
Alternative option through the Recovery menu:
With the phone turned off, press the «Power» and «Volume» buttons (down or up).
Hold them for 10 seconds.
After launching the Recovery menu, select the line “Wipe cache partition”.
You can also delete the cache of one program:
- Open “Settings” — “Applications”.
- Select the program, click on the “Memory” line, then “Clear cache”.
- After this, the application cache will be deleted.
How to connect to a computer?
The procedure is practically no different from any other modern devices.
- Take the original Honor 8C USB cable from the box and connect the phone to the computer.
- On the smartphone screen, a pop-up window will ask you to choose how to use the device.

- Click “File Transfer”.
- The Windows 10 system will have two removable drives — internal memory and an SD card (if the phone has one).

The smartphone’s memory also contains installation files for the “HiSuite” application, which allows you to set up synchronization if you decide to click not on “File Transfer”, but on “Photo Transfer”. They are located in the virtual CD drive, which appears when connected to the computer. You need to activate HDB mode on your phone, which is located in the settings in the “Security and Privacy” section.
It is not necessary to install the program if you need, for example, just to look at and copy photos.
How to connect to TV?
Let’s consider connecting Honor 8C to Smart TV.
On smartphone:
- Open Settings.
- Go to the “Wireless Networks” section.
- Click «Wi-Fi». A list of available networks will open.
- Click on the three vertical dots in the top right to open a drop-down menu.
- Select «Wi-Fi Direct» to search for available devices.
Currently on TV:
- Go to settings.
- Open “Network” – “Wi-Fi Direct”.
- After finding Honor, select it from the list, make a request and confirm.
- The phone is now paired with the TV.
True, I don’t know why you might need such a connection. And to transfer the image from the phone screen to the TV, there is a MirrorShare function. The TV must support Miracast technology. Connecting the phone to the TV is done through the “Settings” → “Advanced settings” → “MirrorShare” menu.
The same thing needs to be turned on on the TV. With this method, the image and sound from the phone are duplicated on the TV screen. Supported by TVs with Android version 4 and higher.
How to reset to factory settings?
There are 3 ways to reset Honor 8C. Make sure to fully charge your phone just in case.
Option 1
- Open “Settings”.
- Go to the “System” section.
- Click on “Restore factory settings”.
- We agree to the destruction of all data.
- Reset will complete after reboot.
Option 2
- Dial on the phone *#*#2846579#*#*
- Select “Restore Factory defaults”. I got a warning that I have a working Google account.
- We agree to the destruction of information and reboot.
- Reset completed.
Option 3
- In the off state, press and hold the volume up and power buttons for a couple of seconds.
- We release “power” after the logo appears on the screen, and continue to hold “plus” until the recovery menu appears.
- There we select the second line — “wipe data/factory reset” using the volume buttons and confirm by pressing the power button. You can perform these actions directly by pointing your finger at the screen.
- Next, the phone will ask you to write the word “Yes” on the keyboard. Do this and press the “wipe data/factory reset” button.
- Click “reboot system now”, the phone should reboot.
- Reset is complete.
If all else fails, the only remaining option is to flash the device.
Camera
The main camera in the smartphone is represented by a 13 MP matrix, F/1.8 aperture and there is only one camera. I think perfectionists will appreciate this step! The camera settings are very simple and will not be difficult to figure out.
It is worth noting the fast and accurate autofocus and a fairly effective LED flash. The final images come out with slightly oversaturated colors, and there is also a lack of sharpness in the frame. But overall, for a budget smartphone, the camera takes pretty good pictures.
Panoramic shot
Video from the main camera can be recorded in FullHD at 30 frames per second. But it is worth considering that there is no optical stabilization. During shooting, there are problems with white balance, autofocus often jumps.
Night shots are more or less normal if only there is a light source in the frame.
8MP front camera. There is no portrait mode at the software level. As you understand, there is no need to talk about the quality of night selfies. Videos can also be shot in FullHD format. The face unlock function is also available, it works quite accurately and quickly.
Appearance customization
This is a very important point indeed. Because, as I already said, when the new firmware is downloaded for the first time and you see the same old EMUI on the desktop, it becomes a little sad. Of course, I hope that new themes will appear in the final version of the firmware.
Nevertheless, the issue can be easily resolved by downloading and installing the theme yourself. There are a lot of EMUI themes available on the Internet in hwt format. Download the file and drop it into the HWThemes folder, which is located in the internal memory of the phone. This theme becomes available for selection in the Theme Manager.
For example, I found several material themes and combined them in the best way for myself, put my wallpaper on my desktop and closed the issue with shell design until better times.
Delivery set
The smartphone is packed in a branded turquoise box.
Package includes:
1. Smartphone.
2. USB – Micro-USB cable.
3. Network charger.
4. Paperclip for removing the tray.
5. Quick start guide.
6. Warranty card.
7. Protective film (on the screen).
Case and headset not included.

Secrets, hidden features, honor 8c tricks
Every smartphone has options that you may never know about unless you specifically look for it. Honor 8C is no exception. I’ll tell you about some.
System navigation.
To activate the navigation you need, open “Settings” — “System” — “System navigation”.
Double screen.
This feature allows you to work with two applications in split screen mode. To use this feature, click on the recent programs button, where you will see a list of applications running in the background. At the top of each application there will be options to split, block and reject.
Automatic resolution reduction.
To activate the feature, go to Settings — Display — Smart Resolution. This will save battery power.
Gestures with a fingerprint scanner.
To enable this feature, go to Settings — Security & Privacy — Fingerprint.
Can be used to answer a call, turn off the alarm, take photos/videos, scroll through photos, open the notification panel.
Screen recording.
The option is built into EMUI. To enable it, swipe down from the top of the screen and tap the Screen Recording icon. If the icon is not visible, click on the pencil and drag the icon up to add it to the panel.
Hiding bangs.
It is impossible to completely remove the top cutout, this is a feature of the display. But you can disguise it. To do this, go to “Settings” — “Display” — “Dark area at the top of the screen”.
Telephony
This is the first function displayed at the beginning of testing. There are many settings available at this point, as follows:
- Adjustment of answering machine functions.
- Manual selection of GSM frequencies.

Notification curtain
This element has been completely redesigned in EMUI 5. Instead of two separate tabs for notifications and toggles, we see one. At the top there is a panel with switches and a screen brightness slider, which expands by swiping down to reveal additional buttons.
In addition, the design of the curtain has completely changed, it has become more “material”. We see contrasting blue buttons on a black background and white notification cards with the ability to perform quick actions. Expanded display and set of actions with notification are revealed by tap. Read notifications can be swiped away using side swipes.
Overall, I like the new curtain in EMUI 5, both in design and functionality. It has become less loaded than the old version and more ergonomic.
Screen
Honor 8A screen size is 6.09 inches, resolution – 1560×720 pixels (HD), density 283 PPI, IPS LCD matrix. If it is important to someone, then individual pixels on the screen can be examined.
Viewing angles are the maximum possible, multi-touch for 10 touches.
The uniformity of the screen illumination can be assessed in the photograph.
Screen brightness is quite high. In the screen settings you can configure: color temperature, sleep mode, eye protection.
We will analyze the screen settings in more detail using the ColorMunki Display calibrator from X-Rite.
Gamma curves show slight scatter relative to the reference (white line) curve.
Color channels are also not entirely stable. There is a lack of red color saturation.
Color temperature is too high relative to the 6500k standard. The colors on the screen will have a cool tint. In the screen settings you can set the “warm” display mode.
But according to the sRGB standard we see almost ideal performance. We can say that the color rendition will be quite natural.
The points of the gray wedge lie far outside the circle boundary DeltaE>10. In our case, spurious shades will be present.
In general, the screen leaves positive emotions. Sufficient maximum brightness and correct sRGB performance, which is rare in budget models.
Conclusions
Overall, the HONOR 8A is a pretty solid and pleasant smartphone. But only in the category up to 10 thousand rubles there is very strong competition. So for this amount you can buy a smartphone with 3GB of RAM, a dual camera, a more capacious battery, a FullHD screen and a slightly more powerful processor.
