Huawei Mate 8 Smartphone Feature FAQs
Huawei Mate 8 Smartphone Feature FAQs
3.3.13 When making a screen recording, why can't I also take a
video, make an audio recording, send WeChat voice messages, or
do similar things?
When making a screen recording, audio is also captured. When capturing audio your phone's
audio channel is in use. In the current Android framework, there is only one audio channel.
When making a screen recording, you cannot also take a video, make an audio recording,
send WeChat voice messages, or do similar things because the audio channel is in use.
To use these functions, you will need to stop the screen recording.
3.3.14 When I set up a ringtone using music I downloaded, why is
there no vibration to go with the music when I receive calls?
Vibration with incoming calls is only supported when using one of the 22 default ringtones.
3.3.15 When playing music through the speakers at the highest
volume setting, what can I do if there is static when using
handsfree mode to call?
Please update your system software to the latest version.
In Loud voice mode, producing a relatively high sound volume is prioritized. Due to this,
there will be a certain amount of static. We recommend lowering the volume and exiting Loud
voice mode to have better sound quality.
3.3.16 When roaming in Hong Kong, can I freely switch to a local
network so I don't need to use two SIM cards at once?
To do this, you must first enable international roaming. When roaming internationally, your
phone will automatically search for and change to a local network. You don't need to do this
yourself.
3.4 Screen recording
3.4.1 When making a screen recording, why does Mini mode
make a lot of short videos?
The purpose of Mini mode is to help you more conveniently share screen recording videos
through instant messaging applications like WeChat. Most instant messaging applications
limit the size of shared videos, like 20 MB for WeChat. When a video exceeds the limit, the
instant messaging application will compress the video, significantly affecting the quality.
So, in Mini mode, when a video reaches a certain size (like 19 to 20 MB), a new video will be
created.
