  If your Zte Smartphones is not charging, it could be due to a damaged battery or charger. In this case, contact the dealer.

  If your Zte Smartphones cannot connect to the network, the micro-SIM card might be invalid. In this case, contact your service provider.

Why is the reception so poor on my Zte Z799VL Smartphones?
- P
  Penny FosterAug 26, 2025
  Poor reception on your Zte Smartphones can occur if the network signal is weak at your location, such as in a basement or near a tall building, where wireless transmissions are less effective. Move to a location where the network signal can be properly received. It can also happen when the network is busy, especially during peak times. Try again after waiting a short time. Another reason may be that you are too far from your service provider's base station. You can request a service area map from them.
