HiSuite - what is this program?

Hi Suite supports many localizations and works perfectly with the Russian language . It is available for download to all users.

Attention! The program works not only with Honor and Huawei devices, but also with any other phones running Android OS.

HiSuite, when connected to a PC, serves to:

• Synchronizing a smartphone or tablet with a computer;
• Contact management , including changing, adding and deleting contacts;
• Creating a backup copy of your smartphone data if for some reason you want to reset the device to factory settings or switch to a new device;

• Viewing images or videos on a big screen;
• Reset your smartphone to factory settings;

• Other actions aimed at convenient use of the gadget when connecting it to a PC.

The installation package contains an ADB driver, which allows you to identify the connected device and display it on the computer monitor, as well as select the connection mode.

When connecting, the user must select the desired connection mode:

1. Media device (available if there is a slot for a memory card) – connecting a smartphone as a regular flash card; in fact, in this form, the smartphone only acts as a storage device. The computer displays two disks: internal and external memory.
2. HiSuite mode – enable compatibility mode with this program and use it in the future.
3. Charging only - when connected to a PC, the gadget is not displayed, you will not be able to copy data or connect it to HiSuite. Only charging is supported.
4. Photo transfer – transfer only photos, saved pictures and screenshots. The main difference from a file transfer connection is that you cannot copy any information other than images from your phone.

When you connect your Android device to your computer for the first time, the program is installed automatically. What to do if automatic installation does not occur and how to connect HiSuite on your computer will be discussed below.

In order to install any original firmware, you must do the following:

1. Copy the dload folder with all its contents to the root of the SD card;
2. Turn off the tablet;
3. Insert the SD card if it was removed;
4. While holding the Volume Up key, press and hold the Power button until the screen blinks. The Volume Up button must be held until the installation process begins (a green robot and a progress bar will appear);

What to do if HiSuite does not see Huawei and Honor phones

There are many reasons why the program does not connect to the phone. First, it is better to check the quality of the cable itself, then move it to another USB slot on the computer.
