Huawei: Reset Network Settings on EMUI

If WLAN keeps dropping, mobile data refuses to reconnect after switching networks, or Bluetooth pairings act up for no clear reason, a stuck network configuration is usually behind it. Resetting network settings wipes WLAN profiles, mobile data setups and Bluetooth pairings so the phone rebuilds them from scratch. On Dual SIM phones you also get to pick which SIM card the reset applies to.

Reset Network Settings auf Huawei

Persistent WLAN drops, mobile data that will not reconnect after switching towers, or Bluetooth devices that keep failing to pair often point to a corrupted network profile rather than a hardware fault. EMUI stores WLAN passwords, APN configurations and Bluetooth pairing data separately from the rest of your settings, and any of these can get stuck without a clear error message.

Resetting network settings clears all of it at once: WLAN networks and passwords, mobile data and APN entries, and every paired Bluetooth device. It does not touch photos, apps or accounts, but you will need to rejoin WLAN networks and re-pair Bluetooth accessories afterwards.

To trigger the reset: Open the settingsTap on System & updatesTap on ResetTap on Reset network settingsTap on Reset network settingsType in your PINConfirm with Reset network settings.

On Dual SIM devices, EMUI lets you choose which SIM card the reset applies to before you confirm, so the other SIM keeps its current network setup.

Skip this reset if only one specific app has connection issues; check that app's own network permissions first. Use the full reset when several connection types (WLAN, data, Bluetooth) misbehave at the same time.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Every stored WLAN network and its password is removed, so you need to log in again once you reconnect.
