Terrible phone. Limited space, apps always crash. Even the music player. Only good as a weapon.

    Well,I have this phone for about 2 years. It's unbearable! First of all the batary lasts at the most one day, and the memory is too small! I put an 16GB SD card some months ago but again it poped notifications saying that I don't have enough space to do anything! Furthermore the camera is terrible (both of the cameras) as well as the keyboard that by the way hasn't got emojis!!In addition you can't find any mobile case for that phone easily.

    The apps(like instagram/facebook) that I downloaded stuck and kick me out every time!!!I can't bear it anymore :(

    If you have any advice please tell me★

        Does this phone definitely come with NFC?
        I have an Alcatel Pixi 7 but it doesn't have NFC so need to purchase something cheap with NFC Technology. I will literally only be using it for 1 app

                The Alcatel was a really nice phone I had it for a short time approximately 2 weeks. From what I understand the screen is very fragile and cracks easily

                      I bought one, and i am so dissappointed with the performance, is this a real snapdragon phone? And the battery, whooping 2000mah for a 4inch display, but cant last long, i think this phone is a garbage, grrr.

                                I got my phone 2 months ago. Its out of memory,so 3 days ago I got a SanDisk micro sdhc card. I am unable to save apps on it not even viber/or games {the phone tells me I have no memory on the device even though there is a 32gb microcard in it}. Are they not compatible because they're supposed to be? -also someone told me that- alcatel you can only save apps on internal phone storage and that you can't save them to an sd card. Is this true ! is there a specific sd card for alcatel!?????

                                  Problems: Gets very hot in use, not just warm VERY hot (near camera, presumably CPU). Screen has no scratch protection and gets bad scratches easily.

First choose your sd card as default storage, then download from the play store the file manager app ES File Explorer (don't worry it's free). When you open the app be assure that the sdcard0 is your microsd. Now on the settings app choose show hidden files. Well, find the files .nomedia and delete all them. Now your gallery always be working.
