it’s an anxious business when one needs to change a phone, especially when one has not used that particular brand before. if you are reading this, probably you are also about to, or deciding if you should get a Huawei 华为 phone too? migration to and from samsung phones’ seamless with its dedicated apps. but googling around doesnt reveal if Huawei offers similar solution. only some PAID 3rd party solutions turned up in the searches.
went ahead with the migration (from an ASUS), and was pleasantly surprised (though not totally unexpected) that Huawei prompts us to install its own Phone Clone app from Play Store on the old phone! installed and the syncing was a breeze.
one thing though, am unsure why Contacts are blanked out in the app (which means the app is capable of doing it, but probably blocked by some security settings in the old phone). so had to use my favourite SA Contacts app as an additional step. backup and export to Google Drive from the old phone, followed by import from Google Drive on the new phone.
done. nice (:
