HiSuite

HUAWEI HiSuite is a nifty tool helping users manage and customize their Huawei devices. Backing up data is one of its functions.

Preparations Before Backing Up

• Ensure that the remaining memory of the phone is larger than the data size to be backed up, otherwise it will prompt insufficient memory.
• Original data cable is recommended to use for stable connection.

4 Simple Steps

1. Install and open HiSuite on the computer, connect the phone to the computer with a data cable. Then Search HDB in phone search bar and turn on Allow HiSuite to use HDB.

2. Now, you can click Data backup in HiSuite on the computer to start backup;

3. Select the data and click Start backup. The backup path is recommended to be kept by default for the convenience of future search;

*Reminders: If you want to encrypt the backup data, select Encrypt with password, and set the password and password hint according to the prompts.
For HiSuite 9.1.0.307 and later versions, the encryption is compulsory. Please remember your password because it cannot be retrieved. If you forget the password, the backup data cannot be restored to your phone.

4. After finishing backup, a Completed prompt will be displayed. Click Done to return home screen.

Method 3:
External Storage

Use a memory card, USB storage, Shared folder or other external storage devices to back up and restore data.
