How to backup contacts, SMSes, photos, and videos from Honor 8X (jsn-l21)

Honor 8X (jsn-l21) Honor Huawei AOSP

Honor 8X (jsn-l21) runs Android with Huawei Mobile Services and it's supported by PhoneCopy.

Huawei is gradually launching mobile phones that include the Android operating system without Google services, also known as AOSP or Android Open Source Project. Similarly like on the other smartphones you can download applications from the application store named AppGallery directly to your phone. When you buy a new phone you need to transfer your personal data from the old phone before you start to use it. This is a reason why PhoneCopy should be the very first application on your phone. Later you can use it to back up your contacts, SMSes, photos, and videos to keep it safe in the case when your phone is lost or damaged.

With PhoneCopy you can easily transfer your contacts, SMSes, photos, and videos to any other phone and it doesn't matter if it is a smartphone or feature phone. It takes a few seconds and you can call your business partners or friends again.

Discussion

What is a difference between Huawei AOSP phone and other Android phones?
Huawei AOSP phones do not come with Google services pre-installed, including the Google Play store. Google services also offer some special functions which 3rd party app can use. Huawei Mobile Services provide similar functionality on the phones without Google services so that's why most apps can work on these Huawei phones, too. Also, Huawei has its own app store called AppGallery.
How much your service costs?
PhoneCopy is free for personal use if you have less than 500 contacts. If you have more than 500 contacts or you are looking to backup your photos and videos we recommend you buy our Premium plan which starts on 1.99 USD.
Can I regularly synchronize my Huawei phone with other Android phones?
Of course, yes. It is the main purpose of PhoneCopy to keep synchronized all devices across platforms. You can synchronize your Huawei phone with another Android phone or iPhone, you can synchronize any phone with an iPad or Android tablet or you can even synchronize your phone with Windows PC or notebook. After easy initial settings you don’t need to care about it, it just works!
