I also have the 2020 error on firmware upgrade. I have tried to submit a written contact to the company via web form which then puts someone else's message up for confirmation every time I hit send. I tried to phone the UK hotline but got someone very much not in the UK who kept trying to tell me to upload photos via PC Suite(!). He did not understand the question.

Has anyone ever got a successful update going on? Or ever got a response from Alcatel on this? Or has an email address I can try?

I got this phone a week ago, and I never had a "smart"phone before. It's really cheap compared to other similar models (like Nokia E63).
This phone is a little behind from what I expected since the beggining. It has a not-that-cool many, with many options (half of them are actually useful). Icons have an unpolished design and it's very easy to get confused. Luckly we can rearrange them exactly the way we want.
The smaller menus (the ones that offer you all kinds of options) are not the best in class. You will find lots of options you will never use and some missing ones that could be implemented.
Camera is not that great - captures blury images. You need real steady hands for good captures.
Bluetooth is not that usefull, you can't browse your mem stick files.
I figure out that it can be used as a webcam! I had no idea until I plug it in my PC. Works just fine.
Keyboard has small but working keys.
Good screen size with good resolution.
Radio is good also.
Overall, I would rate it a 5.5 (from 0 thru 10).

giddionhade@yahoo.co, 09 Jan 2010my pc doesnt recognize my 800, any suggestions?That happens to me, sometimes.
You have to unplug and plug the cable again and again until you see your phone screen shows you 4 options: Mass Storage, Webcam and other two unimportant.
You should choose "Mass storage" so you will be able to see your mem stick content.

I'm also having the same problem with to update the software using Alcatel's AMSU 4.0.1.3
It read the phone find, downloads the update but then i get error 2020 when trying to complete the update on the phone. I have tried 3 different PCs with 3 different OSes, tried changing port settings to different baud rates and flow control; nothing seems to work. I think Alcatel need some work on this utility.

Very nice features for the price. I like the phone. Sadly, when setting the time, some towns like Nairobi are not in the list of Local town. :( :(

Craig, 02 Oct 2009does this have wifi built in to it or not?? by the way for peopel in the UK it is avaliable... moreD: Ah noes
Lowering the price?!
This happens every time I get a new phone I swear.
I just got the ot-800 @ £70 for Christmas.
I must say though, that this phone, is great with the 'triple your credit' sim card :3
Especially since TescoM has given me 3 months free internet access. Hahah.

I've had problems using Palringo, but have found that going through the net, to the windowslive site, is much easier, you just use the web messenger from there.
But I am still having problems with streaming youtube, I changed the profile around (Data Acc: Tesco Prepay GPRS; Use Prox=off; Lowest UDP Port=1000; Highest UDP Port=6335.), In that profile, it still says that the 'connection failed' What else can I try?
And does anyone know about being able to get Java for this phone? Cause that would also work for watching videos..

If you can help, please email me @ 'timmehboxlavely@hotmail.co.uk'
Thanks :D

People please, for all of your queries and questions please send me an email on un112@msn.com. I can answer most if not all the questions surrounding this phone and other Alcatel units. It is a lot easier if you just sent me an email on un112@msn.com instead of just posting here and not getting a reply.

Thanks.
