Booting into recovery mode on an Itel (Spreadtrum Android) phone is different from the technique used on MTK phones like Tecno, Gionee, Innjoo, Infinix etc. To Boot into recovery mode on an Itel phone:
1. Switch off the phone
2. Press and hold the Power button
3. Press and hold the Volume decrease (Volume -) button
4. Immediately you see the Itel boot animation, release both buttons (Power & Volume decrease )
5. You should see a green Android lying on its back.
6. Press the Volume increase button to proceed to recovery mode
7. You should now be in recovery mode
8. Use volume buttons to navigate and power button to select
* Note: If you're stuck at No Command with an Android on its back, Press Power button + Volume up (increase) button then release both. That should get you into recovery mode
