I believe that there might be a corrupted file of the Android Operating system. Unfortunately, Android 4.0 is not the same as Windows Operating System that you can easily install / restore its factory settings. If you purchase the device less than 1 year before, you can claim a warranty. Refer to the user's manual below for additional information.
