Huawei has removed the lock screen ad wallpapers from its servers which we reported yesterday, which means it shouldn’t be pushed out to any more handsets, but you’ll need to manually remove it from your phone if you received the ad.
The firm hasn’t provided a reason as to why the ad appeared on handsets, but its statement (below) explains how you can remove it from your device.
“Dear users, we thank you for your candid comments, we are sorry for the inconvenience caused to your experience.
“Please kindly be informed that we have taken down those lock-screen images from our servers, as they should not be appearing on lock-screen interfaces.
“For the image/s already downloaded to your phone, you may delete as per following:
“1) When the image appears on the screen, slide up from the bottom edge of the screen, and the operation toolbar appears;
“2) Click the “Delete” button and click “Remove” in the confirmation box which pops up.
“We will continue to improve our services and brings you excellent user experience.”
