In this piece, we will take a look at some of the common itel problems users encounter and how to fix these issues without necessarily needing a technician.

• Phone Freezes: A rather popular experience with smartphones, itel smartphone freezes can be particularly annoying, making your device heat up unnecessarily and become difficult to operate. This problem, which is one of the more common itel problems, mostly happens when your smartphone has low RAM or when your device has a corrupted file. To solve this issue, try the following steps:

1. Restart your device and see if the problem ceases.
2. Check your device storage for corrupted apps, if you notice any suspicious looking apps, delete them from your device.
3. If none of the above steps work, try a factory reset. What you need to do is go to Settings > System > Advanced > Reset options > Erase all data > Reset phone > Erase everything. The device will prompt you to fill in your PIN or passcode. Remember, this will wipe out all of your data that is not backed up so it should be treated as a last resort.
