How to disable advertising on Honor and Huawei phones? A topic that is relevant to almost every person. Advertising is a phenomenon that has virtually filled the modern digital and physical space. There is so much of it that people are tired of it. It is on banners along the roads, on cafes, on the walls of houses, pharmacies, cars, in the subway and even on the phone. Considering the fact that almost all of our free time consists of using a smartphone, I would like to avoid this obsessive phenomenon at least here.
How to remove pop-up ads on Android Huawei and Honor
First, let's look at what types of advertising are found on digital devices in 2021.
- In games and applications. Almost all software that is installed on a gadget for free has advertising inserts. This is income for developers and managers. It can be removed by purchasing the full version or a PRO account.
- Inserts in video clips on YouTube and social networks. This has already become commonplace, since monetization brings in a lot of money. Often, every 10 minutes of a video there are 30-40 seconds of promotions for a product or service. This phenomenon can be eliminated by downloading a specialized ad blocker such as AdBlock or Adway.
- Viruses. If you downloaded something from an unverified site and malicious components entered your gadget, this may appear in the form of advertising banners on the screen. They pop up at the most unexpected moment. To make sure your smartphone is clean, perform a comprehensive scan of the operating system.
- Advertising point built into the firmware. Increasingly, Chinese phone developers are adding a marketing segment to the firmware. Therefore, the device comes this way by default.
- This is not a complete list of reasons why intrusive promos appear on the screen. Next, we will consider each case in detail and select solutions to it.
How to hide your phone number on Huawei and Honor: methods, settings
Turn off ads on the lock screen by changing the wallpaper
If the generation of ads occurs not from the firmware, but due to third-party factors, then changing the wallpaper will help. Install a live animated picture or something downloaded from the Internet. Save your changes and reboot your device.
Disabling demo mode
Demo mode is the picture that we see on the phone screen in the store. A bright, juicy video is placed there, which attracts the attention of buyers. It is obvious that the broadcast video is of an advertising nature. It happens that sellers forget to deactivate this demo mode, and then the new owner will have to manually deal with the problem on his own. We do this step by step according to the algorithm below:
- go to settings;
- opening a custom mode for developers;
- find the system point;
- tap on the line “Demo mode”;
- Use a checkmark or slider to deactivate the mode;
- Log out of your system account.
After this, restart your phone and continue using it in standard mode.
Disable browser pop-ups
Every person faces the problem of pop-ups at different times. It is found on both PCs and mobile devices. The search engines Yandex, Opera, Google and others have approximately the same guide on how to remove advertising from Huawei and Honor phones:
- open the browser on your mobile;
- At the top right, click on the three dots, these are settings;
- open the “Advanced” section;
- go down to the line that is responsible for blocking pop-up windows;
- check the box next to it.
After this, we recommend clearing the cache of this browser and rebooting the gadget.
Enable the “Traffic Saving” option
This is a unique feature that really solves the problem. First, let's talk about the principle of its operation. Traffic Saver cuts and blocks the loading of certain files on the site to reduce mobile Internet costs. That is, when loading the site, videos, commercials, animations, etc. will not be included. Such a tool also significantly reduces the time it takes to navigate to a site or refresh a page. You can enable the option as follows:
- go to Google Chrome settings;
- select the “Advanced” item;
- open the traffic settings section there;
- activate savings with a checkmark or slider.

Ask a Question
Adblocker is a free application that prevents advertising processes from occurring on the device. It operates on the principle of an antivirus: first it scans the system, then it launches its utilities everywhere and prohibits certain operations. This does not affect the operation of the mobile phone itself, but it cuts out advertising. Other software works on the same principle, preventing advertisements from being displayed.
Virus check
Often, unwanted banners and advertisements are caused by malicious components. You can “put them” on your device either by downloading an unverified program or after visiting unreliable sites. To fix this problem, install any antivirus with a good rating and run regular scans. They help find and remove unnecessary components, optimizing the operation of the device as a whole.
Clearing cache
The cache stores information that you previously viewed on Internet pages. Therefore, the likelihood of seeing her again increases, even if in fact she is no longer there. This is a kind of visual memory, but if it remains, there may be glitches. Therefore, users are advised to regularly clear their browser cache, mobile applications, etc.
Changes to DNS settings
DNS is an indicator for which the provider is responsible. If some parameters are incorrect, you will not be able to access some sites. DNS is a domain database. The contact between your phone/computer and the Internet depends on it. Despite the fact that the provider is responsible for it, the address can be changed automatically, which will help in eliminating intrusive advertisements, videos and announcements.
- The first step is to download, install and open the DNS Changer app.
- The second action will be to add a custom DNS address.
- The third stage - enter two indicators in the empty fields: 176.103.130.130 and 176.103.130.131.
How to block applications on Huawei and Honor - blocking an individual program
Removing the problematic application
If advertisements constantly pop up from one program, it means it contains malicious components. Uninstall it, run an antivirus scan and install it again. To avoid recurrence of the problem, download only from Google Play for Android.
Restricting access to an advertising application
When you download and install an application, it requests access to certain tools. Check any apps that have been accessed and disable those that may be displaying notifications.
Why do advertisements appear?
Affiliate offers are one of the most important ways to earn money for website and mobile application developers. However, they appear not only when using a browser or a separate program, but also on the Huawei nova 5T desktop. This is already a serious problem that needs to find a solution.
A similar situation arises from the fact that the device owner has allowed the application or site to send notifications. The user might not even notice the moment when permission was given, since developers try to carefully hide the fact that advertising alerts were activated. But this does not make the advertising any less. On the contrary, the more inconspicuous the activation, the more banners appear on the screen.
How to remove ads from a Huawei tablet
Here, the technology for fixing the problem is very similar to that used on a regular phone running Android OS. The client can perform cleanup in several ways:
- removing all malicious applications;
- installing an antivirus;
- full reset to factory settings.
The main thing is not to install anything dubious after cleaning. After all, 90% of advertising comes from visiting unreliable sources and installing software contaminated with advertising.
Special blocker
If the advertisement appeared because the owner of the Huawei nova 5T gave permission to display it, then the antivirus will not help solve the problem. You need to turn to other programs (blockers). Adguard is worth recommending as one of the best offers. To disable banners you will need to do the following:
- Download the program from Google Play.
- Launch Adguard.
- Activate protection.
- Go to the settings section.
- Select "Content blocking".
- Activate the feature for all applications.
Now, regardless of how the advertisement appeared on the phone, it will no longer be shown to users. But sometimes even such a reliable program fails, which is why the owner of Huawei nova 5T is forced to resort to manual methods to solve the problem.
Turn off browser notifications
Most often, advertising on Huawei nova 5T appears not because the device has become infected with viruses, but because the user has permission to display partner notifications. This often happens after the phone owner opens a website and then clicks the “OK” button, not understanding what he is agreeing to.
To block pop-up advertising, you must:
- Launch the browser.
- Go to settings.
- Select "Site Settings".
- Open the “Notifications” tab.
- Move the slider to the “Off” position.
Depending on the browser you are using, the names of some menu items will differ. But you still won’t have any difficulty finding the right section to turn off notifications.
Removing questionable applications
The first thing you need to do is get your smartphone in order. After all, during operation, users do not notice how their device is filled with a huge number of programs, not all of which are safe. This is especially true in cases where the owner of a Huawei nova 5T installs applications not through Google Play, but using APK files downloaded from the Internet.
To remove advertising you need:
- Open phone settings.
- Go to the "Applications" section.
- View the list of programs.
- Click on the name of the suspicious software.
- Click the “Delete” button.
Unfortunately, this method only helps if the user is 100% sure which program is harming the device. But in any case, it won’t hurt to clear your phone of unnecessary applications.
