A: If your gloves are thick or there is a lot of air between your fingers and the gloves, the

phone screen may not detect the action of your finger. Generally, the thickness of gloves must

be within 5 mm and there cannot be a lot of air between your fingers and gloves.

Q: My phone screen is too sensitive. The action is triggered when my finger is close to the

icon. Error operations occur when I enter texts. Why?

A: Maybe the glove mode is enabled on your phone. In glove mode, your phone screen

sensitivity is high. This may lead to error operations. You can disable the glove mode.

6.4 Ghost Hand (Phone Screen Failure)

Q: When my phone is being charged, slide and touch operations are performed without any

manual operation. Why?

A: If a charger with low noise restraining ability, noises on the grid may lead to the preceding

scenarios. To prevent ghost hand scenarios, use the charger delivered with Huawei Mate. If

the problems retain, check your phone and charger in the maintenance office.

6.5 Error Operations Caused by the Phone Cover

Q: When I shut the phone cover and slid on the phone cover, my phone screen can recognize

my finger actions. How do I solve this problem?

A: Some phone covers are thin and the cover materials cannot prevent the phone screen from

recognizing finger actions. This leads to error operations.

You can solve this problem using the following methods:

Use the phone cover provided by www.vmall.com to reduce the error operation rate.

Disable the glove mode to reduce the error operation rate.

Before shutting the phone cover, press the Power key to turn off the backlight. This can

avoid error operations.

6.6 LCD

Q: There is slim blue light around the edge of my phone screen. Is it a liquid crystal display

(LCD) flaw?

A: It is not a phone flaw or LCD/touch panel (TP) flaw. Huawei Mate TP adopts the super

thin GFF. The film forms a slope between the LCD and the spray coating of the TP. The light

reflection angle of the slope is different from that of the LCD, so you can see slim blue

reflected light. This phenomenon depends on the TP creation techniques and is not caused by

material problems or installation faults.

Q: When my LCD displays white, there is bright light at the top and bottom of the screen. Is it

an LCD flaw?

A: The backlights locate at the top and bottom of the LCD, so when you see the LCD from

the side you can see bright light at the top and bottom only when the LCD displays white.

This is a normal situation.

Q: When my LCD displays white, some parts are bright while some parts are dark. Is it an

LCD flaw?

A: There are multiple backlights. The part close to the backlight is bright while the part far

from the backlight is dark. When normal pictures are displayed on the LCD, the bright and

dark differences are not obvious. This is a normal situation.

Q: When my LCD displays white and I observe the screen carefully, I can see stripes. Is it an

LCD flaw?

A: LCD backlight cannot be perfectly even-distributed, so stripes may be displayed. A

Huawei Mate smartphone is completely checked based on the quality standard before being

delivered. When normal pictures are displayed on the LCD, no stripe will be displayed. This

is a normal situation.

Q: My LCD is yellowish or bluish. How do I solve this problem?

A: Different people like different color temperature. On Huawei Mate, you can touch

Settings > Display > Color temperature to adjust the color temperature.

6.7 SIM Card

Q: The SIM card on my phone cannot be recognized and communication failures occur. Why?

How do I solve these problems?

A: Many users cut the SIM card by themselves, so the edge of the SIM card chip may expose.

As result, the SIM card is easy to be interfered or damaged. You are advised to use the

standard SIM card for Huawei Mate, which is provided by business halls of each carrier.

6.8 Charging

Q: Why does my phone take a long time to be charged?

A: Huawei Mate uses the buttery with a large capacity of 4050 mA. If a small load charger or

USB cable is used to charge Huawei Mate, the charging current is low so the charging

duration is long. You are advised to use the 5 V/2 A charger delivered with Huawei Mate.

With the 5 V/2 A charger, the power volume of your phone can be charged from 2% to

100% within 3 hours.

Q: Why my phone restarts repeatedly when I powered my phone in charging?

A: When the power volume of your phone is too low, a small load charger cannot provide

sufficient current to power on your phone. In this case, your phone may restarts repeatedly.

You are advised to use the 5 V/2 A charger delivered with Huawei Mate.

6.9 Common Software

If QQ and Sina Microblogging preinstalled on Huawei Mate are normal, you can use these

applications when you restore them to default settings. The latest common applications

installed on Huawei phones are tested before delivery. Third-party application upgrade may

case software failures.

boot mode. This is the default combination key of Huawei smartphones. If your phone enters

the fast boot mode, you can press and hold on the Power key for more than 10 seconds to

restart your phone.

6.19 High Temperature, Performance, and Power

Consumption

Q: Why my phone's temperature is high when I play games or watch videos?

A: It is common that intelligent phones consume high power, causing high temperature.

Huawei Mate supports 1280x720 HD and high hardware configurations such as four-core 1.5

GHz CPU, which brings good user experience but leading to high power consumption. In

some scenarios, especially in overlap scenarios such as you play videos or games when the

phone is being charged, the phone consumes higher power, and the phone's temperature is

high.

Huawei Mate has a temperature acceleration protection solution, preventing security risks.

Huawei Mate supports the fast charging mode in which the charger outputs larger current,

causing high consumption and high temperature. It is not recommended that you access the

Internet, play games, or watch videos when the phone is being charged.

Q: Why do errors occur in game pictures? Why is my phone's performance low and why does

service interruption occur?

A: Huawei Mate supports 1280x720 HD. Some games are incompletely compatible with the

HD, causing low performance and application interruption. To solve this problem, upgrade the

game version.

For errors of 3D game pictures, follow Huawei Pollen forum or other Android forums. You

can download texture packs for 3D games from these forums.

Q: Why does my phone consume high power? Why is my phone's standby period shorted?

A: It is common that intelligent phones consume high power, causing high temperature.

Huawei Mate supports 1280x720 HD and four-core 1.5 GHz CPU, which brings good user

experience but leading to high power consumption.

Solution: Set the power saving mode to the intelligent mode on the Settings menu.

Decrease the screen brightness.

Disable seldom used software, preventing too much memory from being occupied and saving

power.

Huawei Mate's player. You are advised to use the player preinstalled on Huawei Mate.
