In-Warranty Service
In-Warranty Service
Warranty administration in brief If the device breaks down during intended use, it is possible to repair it free of charge within the warranty period. If the device has suffered any kind of physical or mechanical damage, the manufacturer has the right to reject the warranty of the device. Such physical damage is, for example, broken display and back panel, broken charging connector, soaking (even for waterproof devices), etc. For warranty administration, you definitely need the invoice or warranty card for the device and, of course, the device. In case of charging problems, the manufacturer also requires the return of the original charger.IMPORTANT: During an In-Warranty Repair USER DATA will be deleted!

Problems During Call
Problems During Call
Sound problems during a phone call are not always caused by a malfunction of the microphone/speaker. For starters, it is worth trying the following methods.-
Replace your SIM Card
A common error is that the SIM card used in the device is old or too scratched. This can also negatively affect calls and internet connection. The replacement of the SIM card can be requested free of charge at all service providers in Hungary. It is recommended to replace the card every 3-4 years, even if it is not usually removed from the device.

Disable VoLTE
Newer devices (purchased after around 2018) already have the Voice Over LTE service, VoLTE for short. If it is switched on, the device also uses the 4G mobile internet in order to improve the quality of voice calls. Unfortunately, in this case, the voice call is more affected by the coverage, the speed and availability of the mobile internet. The error can often occur that the user's voice is heard from a "bucket or tunnel". In this case, it is worth turning off the service. Vodefone and Telenor customers can request this in person or via the telephone customer service. In the case of a Telekom SIM, the service can also be turned off manually in the Settings -> Mobile Internet menu item (for some manufacturers, under the SIM card management menu item).
If the error persists, it is worth checking and replacing the speaker/microphone of the device.Please Read Before Sending a Message

Smart Devices and Viruses, Cleaning Programs.
Viruses and Cleaning Programs
In computer technology, we often encounter viruses, anti-viruses and cleaning programs. These programs are essential for the safe use of a computer, and their use is recommended in all cases, but the situation is quite different with smartphones and tablets. These devices can also become infected, but in most cases this is caused by just an application or plugin that displays advertisements. Most smartphones and tablets have a built-in antivirus (usually under Settings -> Security/Protection). Using a free third-party antiviruses or cleaning programs are not recommended. Such programs often send false alarms, many of them are "viruses" in themselves, they do not provide substantial protection, they only slow down the device and constantly bombard the user with advertisements. Virus infection can be easily prevented if users pay attention to what they installs on their devices and what advertisements they click on while browsing the Internet. IMPORTANT: This article does not claim that your device cannot get a virus. If you feel that any unwanted malware has been installed on your device, feel free to contact our specialist service.Liquid spilled on your appliance? Do this now!
