It sounds as if app21 or app22 (whichever ones they are) has a bug that's preventing the optimization. You might need to reflash the stock ROM (see https://blogthetech.com/flash-file-zte-blade-l110-firmware-download-stock-rom-a110/) then reinstall the apps you had installed. (I hope you have everything backed up.) And don't install apps that you don't install using the Play app!

If you can get into recovery try factory reset

I was going to suggest something on that order. I would be concerned about backup but at this point seems like they are out of options. Hopefully there is a backup they can restore from.

I agree

Welcome to Android Central! Try wiping the cache partition: https://www.hardreset.info/devices/zte/zte-blade-l110/hardreset-first-method/. (Make sure you select Wipe Cache Partition in the Recovery Menu, not Wipe Data.)
