Step 3

Select your phone brand - Huawei - from the brand list at the top of the interface.

Step 4

Connect your Huawei phone with a compatible USB cable, then click Remove Now on the right. Follow the on-screen prompts to begin removing the forgotten lock.

Method 2: Unlock Huawei Phone via Find My Phone

Find My Phone (also called Find Device) is Huawei's remote management feature. It can track your lost or misplaced Huawei phone, lock it remotely, and erase it. The erase function is a remote wipe what people usually rely on when they are locked out, and it works for pattern, numeric and alphanumeric lock types. Without a HUAWEI ID on the phone, the method is not available at all.

Step 1

Open cloud.huawei.com on any browser and sign in with the HUAWEI ID bound to the locked phone. Select Find Device in the left panel.

Step 2

Locate the Huawei phone name, where you forgot the password. After that, you will see more options for the Huawei phone. Please select the Erase Data button from the main screen to proceed.

Step 3

The feature will require you to enter the Huawei ID password from the small box. This way, you can authenticate the procedure. Enter the password correctly and click the OK button to confirm the process.

Method 3: Unlock Huawei Phone with a Hard Reset

Recovery Mode is built into the phone, so it works even when the screen is locked. You can unlock Huawei phone by putting it into Recovery Mode. The button combination varies slightly by model, and Mate 30 Pro, Mate 30 RS and Mate 30E Pro have no physical volume keys — on those, press the Power button five times in a row after the boot vibration instead.

Step 1

Suppose that your Huawei phone is turned on. Use the volume keys to highlight Clear Data and press Power to confirm. Touch input is disabled in some Recovery builds, so use the hardware keys instead.

Step 2

The Recovery Mode screen will appear on the screen. There will be four options from the main interface. Use the volume keys to highlight Clear Data and press Power to confirm. Touch input is disabled in some Recovery builds, so use the hardware keys instead.

Step 3

The new screen will show you another set of options. Please select the Factory Reset button from the list using the physical buttons. After that, the Huawei screen must be prompted, indicating that the hard reset is completed.

Method 4: Unlock Huawei Phone Using Forgot Pattern Feature

Older Android phones had a Forgot Pattern/Forgot Password option on the lock screen. You could remove Huawei phone screen lock with this feature with a Google account already signed in. This method only works on some older models, so it isn't available on HarmonyOS devices. What's more, the technique can also be used to unlock Samsung phones, Oppo, and other brands.

Step 1

Open your Huawei phone and enter the wrong passcodes consecutively. Then, you will see a small window on the screen. Please tap the OK button at the center to proceed. A new set of options will be prompted at the bottom.

Step 2

Tap the Forgot Pattern/Password button at the bottom right. Then, you are required to enter the Google account associated with the Huawei phone. Tap the Sign In button to unlock the Huawei phone.

Method 5: Ask Huawei Customer Service for Help

If none of the methods work, contact Huawei Support for help. If your volume button is broken, your HUAWEI ID is dead, or your phone is stuck on the activation lock screen, you can give it a try. You can contact support through the Huawei Care website, phone, live chat, or email, or visit a service center. Before you reach out, prepare your proof of purchase, IMEI number, and any account details you remember.

Conclusion

There are five ways to unlock a Huawei cell phone, but only the old Forgot Pattern option can unlock it without erasing your data. Other methods may erase your data or require account details, so backing up your data regularly is necessary.
