However, my problem lies in the battery, which has swollen and tends to run out rapidly on every operation. I have scoured the internet and cannot find a replacement that does not cost a package. I live in South Africa and Alcatel here simply ignores my cries

  • I have used this mobile for over a 2 years .At first i thought its touch was very bad but later i understood that by calibrating the device it worked extremely well.

  • Well, I am using this phone now for more than one year and I have no problem with the battery and other expected options, but I can see some errors 1. If U are charging with the USB charger, Touch Screen gets a problem, if U Touch has an error. I fix it again attaching the USB charge wire. 2. This phone always prefer Calibrating, if U do not calibrate, touch screen slows down. (Ladies Feature is in it :) ) Network setting some times is not clear, but as whole this phone is really good for me, I bought two phones when I was on a visit to Philippines, both the phones are working well to my requirement.

  • yep ive updated it with v 5.4.3 and itworked but i dont think it makes any difference

  • i cant open my tweeter and my facebook in alcatel

  • hi . how to login facebook without using load ??

  • i want the battery of this set if u provide it then pls tell me how we buy it in lahore

  • Hi ! how to reformat the OT-710 i cant read the massage ?

  • Why in my hand set internet does work?

  • Why is there a need of upgrading alcatel OT 918N ???

  • I just wanna ask if anyone here knows how to block incoming calls and sms from a certain number with this kind of handset? Thanks!

  • Just wanna ask if I can repair my cellphone? I can't tap it but my LCD is okay and have no defection

  • u can use samsung pluger to plug the phone to ur com and download games from there

  • i can not enter new contact names. what is wrong?

  • Hi just tried to download user manual for my OT710 mobile and only got 1 page, dont know what happened there, ant ideas.?

  • this phone is usefull for music and pics but its not worth buying beacause it dont have any games you cant go on the internet and you cant use it once it freezes after having this phone i reget getting touch screens because once youve had it for about 2 or 3 months the touch starts to freeze and it doesnt help when your calls and messages start to stop working.

  • I dont like,the phone.its too slow to certain functions!

  • cant complain it is a smartphone in its own right.

  • Alcatel OT-710 is beautiful but when it comes to using it is very poor.

  • Is this Model supporting VIDEO download & view Videos from YOU Tube.? I experienced that, When message appears "Start STREAM" we Click on it, Then the message appears : Unsupported Scheme " or not supported.

  • Fact: this is the cheapest touch-screen smartphone you can buy. Yes, it qualifies as a smartphone by a bare margin - it can multitask, and you can minimize your java app and read books and play music at the same time. Fact: the touch-screen is resistive and slow. It's damn cheap, so don't expect more. Compared to the Sony Ericsson Yendo, this thing is loads better. The phone runs on an MT6225 ARM7 50Mhz chip and does the work of stuff with better specs. On the plus side, the OS is really good; certainly better than s40. It's a Java phone, and it looks good. Particularly worthy is the music player, which is certainly a treat.The camera is also suprisingly lag free. Overall: for the price, you're getting a good deal.

  • i can' seem to have to dowload mxit on the phone

  • Dear gsmarena contributors, My OT-710 is not seen by the OT Upgrade 5.3.5 even if I correctly keep pushed the �green� button when plugging the USB cable. USB works fine for Alcatel PC Suite. I�ve been able to reset it in factory setting. Nice to see Chinese menus :-), this doesn�t solve my Issue. The firmware version I�ve looks strange. Worst in the "Setting" menu application I�ve only 3 options. Looks like I�ve a very old FW version, maybe a factory one. Is there an other key stroke to start upload ? I�ve tried several mixt of �green� �red�, up and down. Is there any other way to upgrade FW and SW than using OT Upgrade ? Via UART ? Using an older version of OT Upgrade ? If yes where to find an older OT Upgrade, and the software package to download? Thanks to who can help me. BR, Alibaut1

  • There is no big difference, after the update and it's seems to be a animated picture (May be just for promotion)

  • Hi, If you didn't update your phone you can't see the videos in MP4 format. Only 3GP format videos will be played in the phone. If you update the phone you can play MP4 videos and that too in a specific format. i.e. you have to convert the videos in that format. I used a free software called format factory which is available in brothersoft website. Install and run that software. Select All to mobile device from the left side panel and add the video files and then click output setting. In the pop-up window click Motorola and select Motorola V3x,Z,Zn and click OK, OK. Now click start. This is a simplified process instead of manual settings. Hope you understood this time.

  • how can i play wma music

  • err. why is the feature different. in the internet the features are great but when I bought it the icons and features are different. do I need to upgrade it to have that kind of Icons like this? its features is like that of the alcatel groove but mine was alcatel 710-d.

  • I bought this phone 15 days ago This mobile is very good but its sound in headphone some low this is only defect that i saw in this mobile about upgrade software I upgraded software successfully by One Touch Upgrade

  • This phone is fine to use. But i agree to others that the touch part is not that good. But I guess I have to sacrifice for a while. After two years, I'll replace this. The style is nice, the weight is very light. I like it. But it actually made me sad cause I saved a lot of money then this is what i get. Hmm...I think I like the alcatel 918D. But I need to save once again. I'll rate this phone: 7/10

Switch of the phone. press and hold the green key and then connect it to the computer via USB. don't release the key until the computer displays that now you can release the key in green color. (this important) next the software will install to your system then it will ask you to disconnect your handset from computer. again ask you to connect in the same way i.e. press and hold green key and then connect it to the system. now the software will install to your handset. the system will give step by step instruction.

  • hey i think that you are too rough in judjing such phone here in egypt this mobile is great touch not like i phone but we already know from the price camera not too bad but not 2 mp look at price and you can know good phones from bad ones

  • Well, I bought this phone a week ago, it looks nice, but the touch screen don't function so good, it's very slow to sense your touch, and the camera says 2MP but it's not really as clear as the 2MP it seems like it only have a VGA cam, when I realize that it's not really value for money, I've been really disappointed, I guessed Alcated have just bought it in China and renamed, it's really simillar to china fake phones. So if you're looking forward to buy this phone, buy it with your own risk.

  • Really the touch screen is so annoying(taking so much time to sense)...Very slow phone..But it looks good..Cheap phone..

  • shal i tak is ths usful due 2 el be getting many calls per day

  • No, I brought it a year ago and it is slow and hard to use. The touch isnt touch sensitive so you have to really press hard and it has a slight delay making it slow to type which is annoying. Also sometimes I turn it on I find it too have deleted everything (including contacts not saved to sim) and changed the settings to default. I do not recommend!

  • perform reset to your phone. remove the battery. remove your SIM and Memory card. press volume button up and press power button at the same time. it will give you confirmation message to reboot/reformat flash. then press the green button to confirm. everything else will go back to factory default. so as it will restart your java set up and you can set it up again. give it a try.

  • your opera mini will work as long as you have the correct network set up .. if reinstalled and still not working .. reinstall you java by doing a flash reset to your phone .. first you have to remove your sim and memory card.. press power volume up button then press power button at the same time .. it will give you a message to do some flash restart whatever .. wait for couple of sec or min .. then it will restart .. try clicking opera mini and then reinstall .. =) hope it works ..

  • my phone also do not have a full charge indicator... i thought i was the only one experiencing it..

  • First, your phone should have MEMORY CARD in it and No need to click Disk F, after selecting mass storage the computer will automatically promote a dialogue box. From that box you can select open folder to view files.

  • Insert your microSD card into your phone...

  • Alcatel OT710 D video cannot watch.

  • I need help. When i take my USB from this mobile in pc, i choose Mass Storage, it shows me Removable Disk F but when i open Removable Disk F i see this: Please insert a disk into drive F. What's the problem? Please help me :)

  • this phone is suck.so slow to open an applications.

  • this is an excellent phone i love it

  • Very nice :)

  • ..theres a lot of website to download games compatible to our model... umnet.com mobile.com just register first to get a full details and search for full touch alcatel ot-710d application or games. just be patient and be an explorer.

  • i´ve this at my hands battery life 10 touch screen 4 bad quality default headest 4 dual sim signal reception 8 mobile size 7 appl 6 screen 5 make your calcution and be satisfied by the result

  • thank you, am wondering why this model 710 has no build in list of names blue tooth even if you seach a visible format the fone cant detect any blue tooth and where do i get a software?

  • Set your system's firewall and anti-virus to allow one touch software i.e. add it in exception. Switch of the phone. press and hold the green key and then connect it to the computer via USB. don't release the key until the computer displays that now you can release the key in green color. (this important) next the software will install to your system then it will ask you to disconnect your handset from computer. again ask you to connect in the same way i.e. press and hold green key and then connect it to the system. now the software will install to your handset. If you are not sure about how to do it then don't do it because I don't find any difference after up-gradation.

  • Just now I upgraded my set to one touch 4.5. No big differences, everything is the same. If anyone find anything new, please post.

  • The right VIDEO FORMAT After trying lots of video formats in different resolutions, I got the right one. On my opinion Pazera Video Converters Suite 1.3 is the best video converter and I got it from Brothersoft . After installing the software do the followings. On the main menu select Video to 3GP, Hence the phone only support 3GP format. Output file format : 3GP Video codec : H.263 Bit rate : 650 kbps FPS : 12.5 Audio codec : AMR-NB Bit rate : 12.2 kbps Sampling freq : 8000 Channel : 1-mono & Resolution : 176X144-QCIF And that�s it. Add the files you want to convert and click convert. For Pazera to do it�s job quickly don�t do any other work in between. And Don�t forget to Thank Pazera for the wonderful converter and Brothersoft. I got lots of valuable information from others through the net and that�s why I am posting here with details so others could use it. So please SHARE THE GOOD THINGS. One more thing, if anyone tried One touch 4.5 , please post your views.

  • i want this phone!!!

  • for you to be able to use fb, twitter, or opera mini apps you have to get GPRS settings from your mobile network,, once GPRS is activated you can now use ur WAP and JAVA apps ,, the only problem is ,, no wi-fi so it will consume your minutes and you account balance ,, try unlimited surfing then ,,

  • i cant use the bible on my alcatel ot710 but works good on different phones. so please what do i do?

  • I'm gona buy this phone! How about it's working? Are games working properly? what about speed of the Internet? is this quick typing? How about touch, is it fast? replay me. Please!!!

  • cant get bluetooth 2 work cant receive pictures its a pain

  • There are loads of decent phones available on contract for £10 a month. It depends on what you are looking for. Do you want touch-screen or traditional keypad? Will you be using the internet a lot? Do you want it for apps and games or just to text and make calls?

  • Yes, the OT-710 does support 3D Java games but you may find they run slowly as the phone's processor is not the fastest in the world. However, there are loads of great Java games out there that run well on the OT-710. OT-710 will install Java (.jar) files.

  • does alcatel ot 710d support 3d games?

  • I was looking at buying an alcatel phone but i want a responsive, easy texting phone. Do you recommend any good phones of any make for around £10 on contract?

  • worst ... touch! really!!!! The person who sold (at Big-Bazar, ameerpet, hyderabad), he himself dont know the features. All the specifications that he said is wrong. SAR = 0.6 (Actual = 1.1), Capacitive(Actual = Resistive), 1000mAH (Actual ~ 850mAH). I am not at all satisfied with this.

  • I have not managed to get my OT-710 to play MP4 files. I contacted Alcatel support and they said that some models of the phone will play MP4/M4A/AAC etc and some will not. I think it depends where you purchase the phone. They said 'One Touch Upgrade' will not fix this problem.

  • Worst touch screen, and I needed a heavy duty texter. Now I'm Cursing the person recommended this Alcatel. who Cant wait to get rid of mine. I wont even accept money!

  • What about MP4 format?

  • Try encoding your videos with the settings I've listed below. They work for me.

  • hi guys how do i install apps on this phone

  • what is the java heap size of this phone ? what is the ucweb version this phone can handle ?

  • long press the widgets wait until the x close button appear on upper d right of the widgets

  • Pros: 1.Not expensive. 2.One touch access to many SNS. 3.Large display. 4.Good toch sensitivity even though a resistive touch screen. 5.Great many features for a really affordable price. Cons: 1.Very poor camera quality when compared to other mobiles with 2MP camera. 2.Grains are seen when photo is transferred to computer. 3.I tried to play video files converted to mobile format.But the mobile device showed me an error message 'Falied to open'.

  • No probs. If you do get these encoding settings to work you will find that the audio quality is pretty poor and in mono. I emailed Alcatel and believe it or not they replied, saying that only some OT-710s support stereo video (AAC/MP3) and MP4 file formats. However, it does mean that if you're encoding full movies the file sizes are pretty small. Let us know how it goes!

  • Thxs for quick reply J_R. I've also spent hours trying to find the solution. I've used Any Video Converter but with no success, mp4 or 3gp at 320x240 and 176x144. "Failed to open" is all I got. It was frustrating I'll tell you. I'll give your suggestion a try and let you know the outcome, cheers.

  • i live in albania.and my cousin brought me a Alcatel OT-710 in london. evrything is alright except the internet..i can not log in at the fb..can u tell me how can i use it? how can i log in there?

  • Hi snookerglen. Have spent hours on vid conversion with this phone. These are the only encoding settings I have got to work: I am using 'Freemake Video Converter' which is freeware from www.freemake.com and produces pretty good video quality and is quite stable. I have only managed to get .3gp file extension to work. MP4 with different codecs will not play on phone. File Type: 3gp Frame Size: 320x240 or 160x120 Video Codec: MPEG4 Frame Rate: 12fps Bitrate: 50kbps for 320x240 or 100kbps for 160x120 Audio Codec: AMR Channels: Mono Sample Rate: 8000Hz Bitrate: 12Kbps NB: Two Pass encoding is slower but results in better image quality. Hope this helps!, Jett_Rocker

  • Can it show notes or reminders on the home display?

  • double click to widget and then close from (X) button.

  • ya i hav seen this,, but i get headache wen i use the phone.. No one else get tiz type of feel ??

  • Hi, AlcatelPCSuite V7.0.10 & One Touch Upgrade 4.5 are now available on the Alcatel website. Has anyone tried OT Upgrade 4.5 yet? If so, is it stable? Had bad experience with OT Upgrade 4.3.1.12 and it killed my phone. Could not turn it back on after upgrade so had to get replacement phone from retailer. Bit nervous to try again! Also does anyone know what this upgrade fixes? Thanks

  • I think this phone is great for the price. It does everything reasonably well except one thing. It wont play the videos I put on. I've tried 3gp and mp4 at 320x240 resolution. "Failed to open" or "Failed to play" is what I get. Does anyone else have the same problem and does anyone know how to solve this, cheers.

  • NO. Refere to this =>

  • please help me !!! it`s easy to add widgeths but HOW can i remove them ??? cuz i add everything and now on my screen is everything messed up and it really anoying! SO TELL ME HOW TO REMOVE WIDGETS FROM HOME SCREEN ? thanks :)

  • friends, what about this ones phone's SOUND QUALITY ( through earphones and otherwise ) ?? what about the CAMERA QUALITY ??

  • Hi Raven. When you connect your phone to PC via USB cable you should see three options on the phone screen - Mass Storage, Webcam and COM Port. Select Mass Storage and you should then be able to transfer files from PC to phone. If you want to download your text messages and phonebook onto the PC via the Alcatel PC Suite make sure you select COM Port. Alcatel PC Suite is available for download from the Alcatel site.

  • OT-710 have usb but it seems that its only being used as charger... how can i use it to download from PC to the phone? thanks

  • in my OT-710D it says that maximum limit download and cant download, how to remove it??

  • go to umnet.com and find the games of 240 320 of touchscreen mobiles, i m sure u would get some games and enjoy thank you !!

  • Hi Priya. No the OT-710 does not support wi-fi.

  • hello.I just bought this phone today and I wanted to know whether there is Wi-Fi in it or not! what should I do to check it???

  • hello, i cant use the bible on my Alcatel OT 710 phone mean while the same bible is used on my other phone without any problem. what should i do?

  • Hi Shakira. You are right, there is no option to add words to a dictionary with predictive text. The built in dictionary is pretty extensive but it is annoying that you cannot add your own words like on other Alcatel models. The One Touch Upgrade available from the Alcatel site does not seem to address this problem. Also BEWARE, when I first updated the phone's software it killed my phone and was not able to turn power back on again. Had to return phone to retailer. The replacement phone updated fine though. I have seen other people who have had the same experience with the One Touch Upgrade so be prepared if you do try and update it. Good Luck!

  • I just got this phone today, bought it because they're on sale 50% off! I never thought of how long will it's battery last, but for the whole afternoon, I called and texted all my friends, hehehe till now the battery is full, about the qwerty keypad, it's easy to use. But don't expect to much from this phone's screen responsiveness, I used to have a capacitive phone and this is my first time to try out this kind of touchscreen. You just need to know the phone, on how to use it and you should calibrate it well. I love my phone! I have an android, but this one is smaller so I'm now enjoying my alcatel.

  • when i try to upgrade the software for my unit, it says long press the download key, or long press the handset's DIAL key, but where is the DIAL key or the DOWNLOAD key? can u please help me??? thanks asap

  • I haven't checked the T9 feature of this phone because I was so disappointed by the touch response, I was not satisfied either after I successfully upgraded the software. Compared to the sensitivity/typing with my other phone Samsung Champ, it is still tedious to text that's why I sold my unit.

  • I purchased this phone about a week ago, and considering the very low price, I would say it's a pretty good phone. I only have two issues that I hope someone may have the answers to, Texting can be very tedious. The response on the screen can be quite slow, but I have heard that there is an update on the website that can improve this so I may give that a go, The other issue, is that there doesn't seem to be an option to add words to the predictive text (T9) dictionary. It is almost impossible to text without using T9 as the response on the screen is so slow, and I always find it easier to use predictive text. Also on all of my other phones, there has been an option to add certain words to the dictionary if these words are not already optional on the phone. But with this phone, it will have a certain amount of words on a list to choose from and no way to add more words. This can be extremly annoying and time consuming as I have been switching between T9 and normal text if I want to add a certain word. Does anyone know if there is an option to add words to the dictionary? I would really appreciate any ideas. Thankyou :)

  • I have seen battery life as talk time 16 houser and stranded time 831 hours at GSM Arena but i charged more than 03 hours i cant use 24 hours with 01 hour talking time. If you know any solution to increase bater life please let me know about that...

  • OT-710 ......is this a dual sim card type??? or single sim card

  • Pedro, touch the screen everytime you asked for (about a minute)...small dots on the screen and it will be OK.

  • cool & smart phone.look good

  • There is always one! For me there is no problems at all with this phone. I have had this phone for a long time and have never encountred any problems... It respondance level is about medium but it can never be unresponsive.. Moreover, this phone takes patience and the right amount of behaviour - if people didn't take anger out on phones they would work and respond - not to say that you are using anger but because of what I have read I think that people would hit the phone to make it work - that my friend just makes it worse! Good day

  • hey the mobile is awesum my girlfriend thinks it makes me look cool this mobile i can carry on hand never to be ashamed of if u got great new upcomers pliz mail it to me

  • Hi I recently bought this phone. However after a small accident the touch screen stopped working. Now upon restart the phone takes me straight to the calibration wizard and it refuses to allow me to access any of the other phone features. I have tried taking it to be repaired however parts for the model phone are hard to find in my country. Can some one please help me by pass the calibration wizard as all the other phone features work fine except for the touch screen.

  • Is it possible to veiw youtube clips on ALCATEL OT-710 via operah? i tried it a couple of times when i clicked view clip then a START STREAM appears. i click OK then it states that Service UNavailable, why?

  • make the conversational mode off and u will find alerts

  • click and hold wdgt then u can remove it

  • Just after buying this phone, the phone and touch response was delayed. But I downloaded an update for the phone's software from their website, and now it works smoothly. I now update it from time to time, and it could only keep getting better. Be careful though when updating your phone, because one mistake and you might break it, you'll have to bring it to a repair centre to get it running again. You have to follow each step very carefully.

  • to remove the widgets press on the widget for 4 seconds(long press) then it will appear the close sign and then you can remove it easily.

  • sorry but i don't find alerts in message????

  • I want to update firmware of my phone via alacatel one touch suite. Anyone who the time it will take for whole upgrade process? Also please tell me how we master reset this phone to factory settings?

  • Not sure with the other variants, but the OT-710D disappoints me. Touchscreen sensitivity isn't poor, it's horrible. You often have to press/drag hard. Texting will take forever. It's also very slow, lags when scrolling up/down, even on the menu, which pisses me because I thought this is a good music phone, but navigating through your songs is a very long, gruelling process. Pictures taken with the camera aren't good, I don't think it's really a 2MP camera. And Java apps don't run well here. I'll rate it a 5/10. But I gave my phone's software an update, and touch sensitivity improved a little. Still disappointing, though.

  • seetings wil be in messages->alerts-> setting messages

  • hello I own a mobile phone alcatel ot 710 for dual sim, the problem is that I received a message from internet configuration 2 or 3 times, now I see the icon of this message near signal operators, but I do find it in my inbox ..... also I don't find how to get the gsm are unitial state? thank you answer me

  • hi can anyone help me, my aunt from australia bought this phone for me.i was able to use it with a local sim card but when i tried to use anothe sim card it was looking for a network key which idk where to get? can anyone help me with it?thanks

  • Just be patient and hit the targets as accurate as possible...yes it is true that the calibration wizard will accept hits even if it is out of the target but that will have an effect on your phone's touch sensitivity...the more accurate your hit is the more sensitive and accurate your your phones touch response will be...if that issues still exist try to update your phone firmware (software) but before you do that try to reset your phone to its original settings or do a hard reset (turn off the phone, remove all accessories, batter, etc, hold the power button for around 10-20 secs, put the battery back and turn it on... then it the phone went to the calibration wizard just hit the targets as accurate as you can...)..

  • When your in a call and you answer another call the first call should be automatically put on hold...check your call settings and activate call waiting...hope this helps

  • what is the number of the smart internet ?

  • I have OT-710D for about 20 Days. Battery endurance is about 30h with minimal use (maybe couple phone calls, no games, no sms, no music, etc). I'm using both sims and the network signal in my area is fine. I sent a pm to Alcatel and its reply is as follows: "After our SQA check,if the battery is full charged, and tested on paging 9, and and after power on the handset, don't run other use case, no incoming call, no sms��NRG sport can standby about 830 hours. Paging 9 is network parameter. In different mode, have different power consumption, the result 800 hours is tested in lab. Working on which paging mode is controlled by live-network. And for touch screen phone like OT-710D, power consumption is quicker than other keypad phone." 1. Do you have any suggestions for my issue? It is unacceptable, if the battery dies after 1 or 2 days, of no use. 2. How can I install java games (I tried some but they do not work)

  • Probably your phone have software issue/ problems...try updating your phones firmware.

  • I think it is approx 3 hrs.

  • Having just bought this phone I am generally pleased with it. However, I cannot get it to download the phone book to my Bluetooth car device. My previous Motorola did this with no problems. Does anyone have a solution?

  • i have a groove OT710D and I can input video formats like .3gpp and .mp4

  • Whats the charging time for tiz phone?????

  • That's good, no problem. Nelson is the Jedi Master of OT-710 here ;-) Thanks.

  • That's good, no problem. Nelson is the Jedi Master of OT-710 here ;-) Thanks.

  • thanks Nelson and Raymond I got my phone working again.

  • You only have to simultaneously press and hold down the volume + key and the call log key (the green button) until the flash format message appear.

  • i was about to take it back to the shop where I purchased it but the receipt is already gone. I havent tried resetting the phone yet. tried to google and resetting the phone would be by pressing the UP key on the side while holding down the Power key right?. thanks for answering my question

  • Mine has i think 4 to 5 days on average texting and few minutes gaming/listening to music.

  • Better report this matter to the shop where you bought your unit. Anyway, it could still be under warranty. Have you tried resetting your phone? Thanks.

  • I bought my phone 2 weeks ago. The shop told me to charge it for 8hrs. But it normally last for 24-36hrs. Last week it end dead so I charged it 12hrs, I haven't used it and its been on standby only. It lasted 46hrs before going dead. Does anyone know if this is normal.

  • maybe the message you just received was a virus...just maybe,i apologize coz' i don't know if there is already a virus sms...hehe

  • can anyone please help me? on my OT710d it says that I have a message but when I press/open the messages box the phone reboots. I have tried to remove both sims and it still says that I have a message but the phone just restarts when I open the messages menu...thanks

  • Hi I wanted to know about how really long will the baterry of the Alcatel OT - 710D lasts? It has been posted to last for atleast 830H standby, 16H talk time and 30H music playing but there are lots of comments telling they have problems on the Batterry life. Just 30 Minutes nad there, lowbat. And it has been posted safe for the features having a disclaimed portion that information may not be fully guaranteed tru and correct. So what is it? Some kind of gray matter Marketing?

  • i have the same problem as prince has.. cant play games since most games require keypad.. so here i am still waiting for any help that i can get..any suggestion to resolve this for me? or any mobile sites that we can download games compatible with the model of my phone.. thanks so much..

  • This is due to some games mostly java based, are dependent on the phone's feature to be played with the correct display/keys. Like Fight Night Round 4, you can see the arrow keys in the display just above the ring if installed in OT-710D. When I installed this game to Samsung Champ, there are no keys in the display but you can control the game by tapping the display above the ring, like imaginary arrow keys.

  • Hi Every body,do you know how to play games on this model phone(Alcatel-OT710D).I download a lot of games but i can't play it because of there is no any dial number or key to move or play games,it has only touch screen.Plz freens give mw some suggest

  • is it better than a lg cookie lite t300

  • Wht is supportable video format this phone & wht is converting software to it

  • I think there is no other way because once you started flashing it, or in the process, your PC or laptop will be downloading the latest files from the server that would be needed to update your phone. I recommend flashing it with wired internet connection.

  • Pardon my ignorance, is there no other way to upgrade one's unit maybe upgrading manually or something cos network is poor in my area so i doubt if i could ever get it ever get it done through one touch software.

  • The color green dial button.

  • hey guys, new upgrade version now is 4.3.1.12

  • Im having problem with my unit. When I open "messages", my fone shuts down. I can't open my messages. Help please.. tnx

  • what button should i long press in order to upgrade my unit?

  • Yes, you have to back up first your files like notes, phonebook before doing so. I upgraded my unit using the latest software (it took more than three hours in the process because I was using Globe Tattoo 3G connection for my PC). I was not satisfied with the result, I didn't find any significant improvement in texting which is my main concern, so I decided to finally sell my unit to my cousin.

  • The file is a compressed file, you need to have a file extractor program (winzip, winrar, 7-zip, etc)for you to open the file. Just Google any of these program, install it then right click One Touch Upgrade 4.1.0.9.rar select extract files and you should be able to see the executable installer (One Touch Upgrade 4.1.0.9.exe)

  • i can open the file what program should i use?

  • Here's the link if you want to upgrade your fone. Just download One Touch Upgrade App and just follow the instructions. Advantage: ... you can read my older post... generally it increases your fones performance Disadvantage: ... None. Back up your files stored on fone memory cause it will be deleted. Power outage during upgrade process, in case your computer shutdown or something in the middle of the upgrade process (Flashing process) will break your fone

  • how can i upgrade this phone? what site should i go? and what is the advantage and disadvantage of upgrading this phone? need an accurate answer. thanks...

  • thanx 4the info man,il go fr the champ,:) iv a spiro I dnt like it

  • i want to buy this phone and i see there are so many opinion that this phone need to be upgrade, so if i buy this phone and i want to upgrade it, so can someone tell me how to upgrade it? :)

  • how about the screen sensitivity when it comes in typing a mssg.

  • I'd bought this unit April 28, 2011 and i try to surf this phone on that day and its really suck for me. Slow response typing on the keypad., No recent logs, easily drain battery. Speaker really sucks too. Hope they can upgrade the software (android) (: Hopefully

  • could you please tell how you installed games on the alcatel OT-

  • i really want to upgrade my phone, but im a little afraid of upgrading it... all of the things that was installed on my unit was going to be deleted right? like games.. etc.

  • Use the qwerty keyboard instead of the standard keyboard. For accuracy, just calibrate your screen. Try to create sms after you calibrate and if your still having accuracy problem, just do the calibration again until you get the desired result. It should work perfectly.

  • i already had successfully upgraded my OT710D to it's latest firmware.... what i noticed is that the touch response of the phone seems to be so fast, not like before... it's so fast that now, i wanna txt all i want because it runs smooth,.... you can notice the smoothness and fastness of the touch response when you lock/unlock the phone... thanks...

  • Type response becomes faster but not accurate e.g. the number of times you multitsp (does not match) and also the next keys adjacent to where you are typing appears.

  • now i cant install any type of application, my phone show the 'over the maximum install limit

  • How about sms typing. It is not easy to type your sms compared to other phone because the screen does not respond accurately. If I type number 2, number 8 is being written. If I type letter d, letter g is being written. Pls advise.

  • still cant connect the unit to a pc, its not working thou im trying to use alcatel pc suite, it really sucks!

  • Well here's what I noticed after I upgraded my phone (I upgraded mine 6 or 7 times now) - touch response seems to be faster - slideshow view is added for viewing pictures - default folders (eBook, music, etc) can't be deleted - fone ui(user interface) seems to be faster and smoother - images larger than 320x240 in size can already be used as wallpaper. But too large much images are still not supported to be use as wallpaper. - lag during video playback is removed. earlier versions of the software has problems with video playback specially it the video is too large. - voice memo, or voice record playback has better and louder volume. - bug in screen-lock during call has been fixed. Previous versions have problem locking the screen if your receiving calls, you still need to manually lock the screen but this bug has already been fixed. - some application such as Facebook, Twitter, etc has been updated. If your not comfortable with the idea of updating your fone and if your not having issues or problems with the fones software it will be better to just leave your fone as it is right now. In case that you've got power shortage during the upgrade process, please be advised that it may cause your fone dead and you need to send it to a repair center to be fixed. Upgrading the fones software does not guarantee to be bug free cause the update may still have bugs on it.

  • You're right with your comment, sir.

  • how can I remove a widget from my home screen? pls help

  • thanks for that, but may i know the bugs before upgrading and what are the new application or new things that i might be getting when i upgrade this phone? thanks

  • network during upgrade process could be due to the follwing reasons: 1. Slow internet connection. 2. Firewall. Turn it off during the upgrade process. Or change firewall settings to let One touch upgrade pass thru the firewall. Tips: I've been checking for software update for this fone for quiet sometime now. Around 4 times already since I bought it in November. here the tips that I can share with you guys: >>> Install the latest One touch Upgrade application on your computer. You can download it at alcatel website. >>> If you got problems during the upgrade process. try to redo the whole process. Uninstall One touch upgrade from your computer. Clean your registry. then reinstall the application. >>> Runs the program as Administrator.

  • upgrading the fones software will generally fix some bugs on the fone's operating system, add new features or application, etc to improve the fone's overall perfomance....

  • This fone can perfectly play videos in 3gp or mp4 format. Probably the reason for the error is the encoding of the video. Try to reencode the video using total video converter or any video converter softwares. Fr best results try to resize the video to 320x240...

  • Try to reconvert it to mp4 with h263 format.

  • Try to lower the brightness level to 2 or 1 depending on which one suites you...decreasing the brightness level will lengthen your battery life...try to setup back light on whenever necessary for the screen and you can just turnoff the back light for the keypad...That's how my phone is setup and it takes around 7-10 days before my battery goes dead...considering that I am a heavy caller..I call around 1-6 hours a day...around 7-10% (estimate based on my observation, no specific test conducted) of battery discharge everyday...

I did not experienced problem with my dual sim (OT-710D) except the back cover - it's hard to open it unlike my previous Alcatel models. I don't have any idea about upgrading to the latest firmware because I don't have PC in our house. I am only using our office PC and will just use my OT-710 in browsing the net when I am off duty. Sorry, I cannot comment on the radio signal because I am not currently using FM and mp3 currently.

  • Try to check if you have followed this instruction: Internet connection failure means at least one of the communication ports is blocked by a firewall, proxy, anti-virus or other security tools. In order to access the One Touch Upgrade service, the one touch upgrade tool needs to set up connection to our servers on the following two communication ports: Tcp/30007 Tcp/30008 The used protocol doesn�t support proxy. If you have a proxy, please configure it in order to allow direct connection on these previously listed ports. If your phone fails to connect to PC, you might have a problem with your USB driver installation or you might have an anti-virus or security tool preventing you from accessing your USB port. To allow proper communication between your computer and your mobile phone, you should make sure that the Alcatel mobile phone USB driver has been installed successfully.

  • you cant download or put themes on this phone because you cant change it but you can download games, wallpapers and ringtone and screensavers on nelson's site

  • From the videos i've seen of Alcatel in the MWC 2011, seems like good times ahead for Alcatel fans :D .The OT-990, OT-908 and OT-890 looks really really good. If priced correctly it would sell well. Looks like Nelson the one-man support army of Alcatel would be even busier this year :D

  • I brought this phone last week. Actually I brought this phone because this phone is dual SIM enabled. I would like to share my experience with you. - This phone is Dual SIM stand by phone and not like Samsung Dual SIM Active phone. Dual SIM Active phone is the best one you can use both SIM at the same time. - Touch Screen is not the greatest one. You feel some uncomfortable while using this touch screen facility(specially when you are moving up and down in main menu). - Sound Quality is not to this generation phone.It has some low quality sounds. - Camera is seems like 1 MP Camera not actual 2 MP camera. Photo quality is fair but not great. - Price is very reasonable. Those are my experiences I do not know how can we improve those weaknesses.

  • thanks alot nelson now im enjoying my new ot-710D, bought this one after reading all info about this phone, and thanks for the games that you provided on your site. more power and more games, applications for this phone, lol

  • You're welcome and thanks a lot also for all your patient. In OT-710D group, I have promised to post the UFB tricks for smart subscribers but was not able to post it there in the date I have promised because I am still very busy with my job. I was not able to spend time for UBT as I've promised because I treat my job as my first priority because it is where I get everything for my family. But I will still post it there the soonest time possible. It is my pleasure to help my fellow Alcatel users. I have been helping since the time of OT-S853.

  • Wapego site is all about dating. Can you give us the link to your operamini?

  • Hi, I just want to know if the operative system is fast. Is this a good cellphone? The OT 710 and the OT 710a are the same phone? Sorry for my wrong english, I speak spanish :p

  • this is supported by bolts application but it will hang,, download opera mini @ pinoycybertron.wapego.com We also have tutoral on how to set its configuration for free browsing.

  • can anyone please show me how to update this phone...? i tried to update my phone by downloading the updated version of the OS.. alcatel-mobilephonse.com downloads... i chose OT-710D.. then after the alcatel PC suite, thers' this update of the software.. please help.. so eager to update this phone....

  • I just want to thank Nelson for his effort in helping other owners of this phone like myself. we all know that it is not the best of phones and apps and games for it are hard to come by but its still good a decent phone. so again thank you very much Nelson. keep up the good word man.

  • No.

  • does this phone have gravity or motion sensor?

  • very nice phone

  • how can i update it?! thanks

  • When there is problem with the touch screen and therefore you find it difficult to make sms, it can be solved by upgrading it using the one touch upgrade.

  • Samsung C5212 dual active phone.If one SIM is engaged other one is waiting(cal waitin).If u want u can answer that call as well.U can add another call when u r in a call(call conference).

  • No Men. I didn't get a chance to check the sound quality. Touch screen is worst for me.because i'm using HTC mini. But its worth for just 10.5k. Alcatel OT-980 model(Android) also available in SL and price is around 26k.

  • It will be next week (probably on Monday) because I am still testing it and want to use it for at least 1 week to see if there are problems or not.

  • I think there's no way to improve the sensitivity. Choosing between Activate two sims or one sim only is in phone's menu so you can choose it. This is dual active, dual standy so both sims can received sms at the same time but it is impossible for any phone to received call in sim 2 while sim 1 is currently engaged. Also, OT-710 & 710D are the same phone, the only difference is OT-710D is dual sim while OT710 is single sim.

  • I m also from Sri Lanka want 2 buy diz handset. Bt still dont know abt da touch response, diz is TFT resistive touchscreen phone bt HTC is capacitive which is latest. OT- 710 D means dual sims i guess. mark did u check da sound quality what abt dat? is da touch screen really worst ?? what abt the other models in alcatel u tried those models??

  • Today I checked OT - 710 phone from local showroom in Sri Lanka. I feel touch screen is not sensitive like other touch screen phones (eg: HTC mini). I've following questions. 1) Are there any way to improve sensitivity of the touch screen? 2) What will happen if touch screen is not working after sometime. Are there any way to make call and send sms using other alternative option ? 3) How can I put both SIMs in Active state? ( I mean when I'm on a call, can another one to call to my other SIM?) 4) What is the difference between OT-710 and 710D? Immediate response highly appreciate.

  • sir nelson, where's the working bolt browser you said that you'll ost soon? i've been waiting for it for so long sir.. i hope you can upload the jar file and share the bolt browser with streaming capabilities.. thank you sir..

  • Unlocking nokia 3315 is difficult than unlocking this phone.

  • I just can't understand why you found this phone difficult to unlock because this is very easy to unlock. All that you have to do is slide your finger from left to righ or from right to left.

  • You must not install games that this phone does not support. Install only games for full touch screen phone like this - those games that can be played in phone without keypad. You can get them if you join this group:

  • There is no need for you to install anti virus because this phone is not compatible to that. Check the video you have received through bluetooth if it is compatible with the phone. That video may have a format that this phone does not support. You may also convert that video into .3gp so the phone can play it.

  • i hate this phone so much, i bought it from asda, and it was so difficult to unlock it so i could use O2 on it. three months later, (today in fact!) it decided to lock itself again. The predictive text is awful as well :(

  • i have installed games on 710d,it came but d pro is that there r no keys to play in d screen i.e.only volume key n call button worj=ks n there is no keys 2,4,6,8,5 in d middle to play . please give me solution fast

  • plzz help me.. where can i download anti virus for this phone? it cant open any image and video thru bluetooth.. i think it has a virus.. help me plzzz

  • There are lots in www.4shared.com. Just search for .txt

  • I will try it and will post update in few days.

  • Download it to your PC then connect your phone to your PC then you can upgrade your phone.

  • where can i download text or pdb formatted ebooks for this phone? it does not go to your ebook folder because it is not in txt or pdb format. so it automatically goes to your java file folder if its a jar file.

  • how do you move your ebooks to your ebook folder on the options menu? it keeps going to my java folder.

  • Sir nelson can i request if you can find a way to install google maps for this unit? it will really be helpful nut just for me and for others as well. :)

  • where should i put the alcatel pc suite and the one touch upgrade? to my phone or a computer / laptop?

  • thanks nelson, you've been so helpful.. now the only thing that im going to do is check your link to see the games that are available for this unit. kinda feelin buying this one ^_^

  • Normally you cannot but it can be done through tweaks of Gmaps.

  • Any screen protector that is bigger than the phone's screen and you just need to cut it. You may also find any that fits to the phone's screen.

  • Just tune in to any vacant or unused frequency in your fm device (let's say 98.5). In your OT-710D, play your mp3 the click on options and choose broadcast. After that, you can no longer hear your mp3 playing in your phone because your phone is now broadcasting it to your fm device. You can listen to that mp3 there.

  • Yes, you can do it freely.

  • pls anyone help. i need responce immediately can i put any wallpaper or screen saver that i like without using the default wallpaper of screensaver? thanks!

  • how does fm transmitter of ot710 works?

  • how does fm transmitter works?

  • sir nelson... where is the trick that you promise to post this wednesday?

  • Just bought mine today and its was a hard choice between My phone T23 and ALCATEL. I find everything normal. Tried testing MMS and other WEB functions, and it was ok. I just find the sound softer compared to to phone which has very powerful volume. But in general, it's ok. Besides, I chose ALCATEL because seldom has it.:)

  • All micro sd brands are compatible with this model as long as it 8 GB in maximum. Any brand will. I am currently using Kingston and so far no problem encountered.

  • Yes sir, you don't have to take out your micro sd. Just connect your OT-710D to your PC or laptop then you can already load your memory card with mp3 or anything you want to load because this phone also serves as a card reader and a webcam.

  • China phone's display just half of this phone's display. Also, I have visited one time in RC Goldline and Samsung Wave catched my attention. It is a phone that has a very crisp display. But when I tried to compare it with my OT-710D, this model is 95% Samsung Wave display alike.

  • thanks nelson, but can i change my wallpaper and screensaver and use the one that i like? and is this a good phone? im planning to buy one.. thanks. really appreciate it!

  • thanks nelson, so i can download wallpaper, screensaver and games, but can i use them? thanks

  • Thank u Nelson. U have been constantly answeing my doubts thank u very much. I have one more question as well what abt the screen i mean da display . This is resistive screen will it be good? or like chinese phones? please answer this question will it be good like samsung corby?? touch rsponse???

  • i heard that the micro sd card slot is located under the battery case. it will be a hassle if we cant remove the sd card quickly. can we use the usb port and connect it to a computer / laptop to directly access the micro sd card folder?

  • I just want to ask those OT-710D users. What's the best Micro SD we can use? thanks...

  • What's the best Micro SD compatible with the OT-710D?

  • can we upgrade this phone?what will happen after updating?what changes?

  • OT-710 for me.

  • You have two options in watching video in this model, full screen and and not full screen.

  • can you watch videos in full screen? i heard that it can only read 174x144 3gp and mp4 videos. thats quite small isnt it?

  • For smart, sun, and globe users, are you able to send mms? kasi i read in a forum that theres an mms problem for this phone?

  • which is better? Alcatel Ot-710 or myphone T23 duo?

  • You can download wallpapers, screensaver, games, and applications and there are lots of them in

  • Nice exterior quality and the sound is also good but the earphone that goes with the unit in the package is not so good. But don't worry, you can always replace it with an expensive one because it is a standard headset.

  • You can lock the phone manually and automatically and unlock it but there's no option to lock it with password

  • the phone has preinstalled themes but can you put wallpapers for this phone? and one more question, can you use google map on this phone?

  • hi.. can i download games here? and do this phone have a screen saver or can i put wallpaper? thanks

  • what abt the quality of the phone exterior??? i mean da built in quality?? please any one tell about the sound quality as well ?? via headphones?

  • Hi Nelson, Can this phone lock screen with security pass code? Please help if you know the answer.. thanks.

  • If there is really a problem then you can always calibrate the touch screen by calibration wizard in main menu or by doing this ==> when your phone is in idle mode and is locked, unlock it then long press the arrow up(volume +) button then you can now start the calibration.

  • Thank u very much Nelson...

  • can you calibrate the sensetivity in this unit?

  • yes

  • Sir, there is nothing in your website after I log in. Why?

  • I already put in our site on how to configure this fone by Free Browsing for Smart and how to Use Opera-mini.. @ pinoycybertron.wapego.com

  • Writing sms in any phone that a standard keypad is more fast than writing your sms in any phone that don't have standard keypad. In Nokia E70 or in any other phones that has the same keypad design (qwerty with very small button with no space in between) you cannot type your sms quickly compare to those that have standard keypad. You cannot type your sms quickly in this model as quickly as you type in OT-S686 or any other model that has standard keypad. The touchscreen sensitivity as I experienced in my unit is too sensitive enough that when you tap let "S' sometimes letter D is being touched. But this is solved by activating the eZi mode or by using stylus in virtual qwerty keypad.

  • OT 710-D is dual sim. The model being published here is the not dual sim because this is the first model that alcatel introduced. After few months, the dual version ais launched and is called OT-710 D. Both phones have the same functions except for dual sim function in OT-710D.

  • this is just a pone no special feature at all accept the being dual sim,, the resistive screen are not good! very limited feature just like chinapone

  • sir nelson... i want to know that OT-710 is not hard to write a msg?? bcoz there a opinion that the touch this phone not resistive??? im hoping for you reply....tnx.

  • guys! is this is dual sim already?

  • Your welcome.

  • I will post the tricks in yahoo group on Wednesday. I am still finalizing everything.

  • Yes, 240 X 320

  • FYI, folks - this is NOT and android phone. @ Nelson - thanks a lot dude you've been very helpful . . . I bought this phone only after reading ur info :)

  • I believe this will last up to 3 years because this is what i experienced with my old alcatel models. I still have my OT 320. It also depends on how well you take care of it.

  • Checked it out. I must say I'm impressed. The resistive touchscreen isn't a wonder, but for the price this phone is amazing. Software is decent, the themes are nifty (though few) and well designed, and the phone is so very light, Overall - no complaints. Default headphones are pretty standard; I plugged in my Nokia X3 headset and the sounds are quite ok as well.

  • Thank u very much nelson. what abot the quality of this phone?? good for long time use? how long we can use it? plz tell if u know? what abt the touch sensitive?and sound quality?

  • is this 240 x 320?

  • sir nelson... how can we use the opera mini for free.? :)

  • You can always use any mp3 as your message alert, ringtone or alarm tone. The phone will also play the whole song while you are are not touching it when it receive message.

  • Yes. This phone can read ebooks in .txt and .pdb formats.

  • i dont mind the themes if you cant change it. i'm the simple yet functional type of guy anyway. does this phone read E-books?

  • I want to make it clear to all users and to all prospective users that this phone does not support theme customization. You cannot change the theme here. You can only choose among the four preloaded themes.

  • Few days from now, I will be posting it in OT-710D group. I will also post some tricks on how to browse the net using this phone with zero load. I am still finalizing everything.

  • alcatel OT-710D is a nice phone. that will maximize your daily living. it helps you a lot in customizing your facebook mobile experience. And twitter as well. But its resistive touch was not so impressing.

  • Where could i find a downloadable theme from the internet for my phone?

  • It cant play Youtube or supported by streaming, also Bolt will work but it Hangs nd cnt play video frm utube, I dload operamini 4.2 frm. pinoycybertron.wapego.com and it work 4 free using smart sim.

  • Can we use Mp3 ringing tones? or only Polyphonic? please tell ? what about da sound through headphones???

  • Does it play youtube videos via streaming or can i download Bolt browser on this phone then stream videos>?

  • @nelson can you share how to use opera mini on this phone? i can only browse using the default browser but not mini.

  • nice phone. much better than the myphone or cherry mobile brands thats out now. specially the counterpart, T-23 DUO. this one has an overall advantage to those brand. and its cheap. no complains here. :)

  • why?

  • myphone or cherry mobile are better than this pone.

  • long battery life, nice nd crisp loudspeaker, much compatible with bolt dan opera, clear lcd, good fm reception, loud earpiece when taking calls, nice alcatel,

  • You only have two options in typing your sms: use standard virtual keypad or qwerty virtual keypad.

  • You only have two options in typing your sms: use standard virtual keypad or qwerty virtual keypad.

  • OT-710D because much cheaper and have standard and qwerty virtual keypad. It's not easy to find games for that kind of phone with landscape display.

  • Unlike any other brand, all alcatel phones (specially this model) gives you an option to set any mp3 as your message alert tone. Not only that, it will also play your whole mp3 (not just for 30 seconds as we experienced in SE phones) if you don't touch your phone while it receives sms.

  • It will last up to 8 days if you only use it in sending and receiving messages.

  • hello!I'd like to ask about the battery life?how long it last with an average use??

  • I believe it's impossible for any DS,DA (Dual Sim, Dual Active) phone to be able to receive call in sim 2 while being engaged on sim 1. The phone is busy during that time. This is my opinion but I have not actually experience this.

  • can this can youtube? how?

Click OK. Wait for a few minutes and the phone will turn on automatically.

  • this fone is a bargain. has anyone already tried the one touch upgrade? much better ba ang performance pag upgraded na?

  • To Ray & Nelson: Thanks a lot dude... Mean to say the release call button is the shortcut for lock & unlock... Wow... This phone is interesting... I'm just waiting for my payday to have this phone... Very affordable touchscreen phone... Better than samsung champ & other nokia & LG touchscreen phone in this price range... Well done alcatel... I'm so excited...

  • how can you set the internet settings on this phone??

  • Just check the wap settings of your phone, there is a default for all network.I'm using smart right now for standard phone browsing..

  • How do I manually set the GPRS settings for this phone wth a SMART sim? Thanks.

  • I already figured out a few minutes after I asked... :\ I also figured that you could set it by selecting the "Add widgets" icon, 2nd last in the desktop toolbar. But hey, thanks so much. :)

  • Fidel, to lock the phone, press (don't long-press) the red button/the right softkey.

  • Just compare the specs of each model you want and read the users opinions. They will help you in deciding.

  • Thank you for your reply dude... Very helpful... But i'm still confuse bout buying this phone... My budget fits OT-710, Nokia 5130 & SE CEDAR... Help me please... I like phone with good sound & better camera in this price range... Please Help thanks...

  • pde po ninyo i download ang opera mini sa pinoycybertron.wapego.com may setting po dun on how to configure opera mini 4.2 for smart.

  • To all users of OT-710D who are requesting games (there are about 20) from through my email add, I'm sorry for the delayed reply. It is just today that I have browse the net because we are so very very busy with our job when started our operation this year. I am only using our office PC (I don't have PC in our house) and unfortunately, I left my phone in our house so I cannot provide you today. I will provide all of you tomorrow evening.

  • Are you sure about this problem. You should have been checking this feature before paying the phone because this is clearly a manufacturer's defect. If your unit can record video, it should be able to play its recorded video also. But if this is really your case, try to reset your unit (everything in phone's memory will be lost/erased) by using flash format. After this your unit should now be able to play its recorded video. Otherwise, you should take it to store where you bought it and ask them to repair it for free, just bring your warranty card and your proof of purchase.

  • Opera Mini can be opened if you have the right GPRS settings for globe, smart or sun celluar and you have enough load credit. I am not sure if we can browse the net for free using globe or smart but I am currently using sun cellular in browsing internet for free.

  • I am not sure what you are looking for but the lock of this phone is on its touchscreen also. You just to slide it left to right or right to left if you want to use your phone while it is idle. You can also manually lock it pressing (short press)the switch button after you use it.

  • Guys wanna ask, since i'm just confusing bout this phone, is there a shortcut button for smartlock?... I mean like samsung champ there is a smartlock button?.. On this phone the lock is on the touchsreen itself?... Please reply... salamat po...

  • I agree with your "negative side" comment. I thought that I might actually break the unit the first time I tried to open the rear. :\

  • pano ko ma oopen opera mini ko to browse net for free.globe and smart gamit ko..help me pls

  • help naman po... nabili ko to 2months ago, yung video capture nya gumagana naman, kaso pag play muna yung nirecord mo ayaw naman magplay, nageerorr naman.. pls help.. tnx!

  • Just bought the unit today. It's worth the price the audio was good using a skull candy headset. negative side the back cover was hard to open.. over all its fine and cool phone..

  • Just curious, why there are so many pinoys in this forum? It's nice to know we're own this alcatel forum. Hahaha. I have one OT-305 a basic phone just for texting and calling.

  • this phone is android froyo for your info

  • hi guys im planning to buy this phone too...kamusta ang quality nang sound nya sa headset?kasi gagamitin ko itong phone for listening music and i have a skullcandy hesh headset, also to use as my extra phone...

  • mas gaganda ang phone nyo kung Adroid OS yang OS ng OT-710D nyo tulad ng sa akin.

  • "FM transmiter" is working or is mistake for this mobile phone in specifications

  • where can I download compatible games for this phone?

  • To all owners of OT-710 D who want games and applications for this phone, kindly get in touch with me at [email protected] and I will provide you. I will also post here tomorrow how to manually set the GPRS settings in case you don't know. See you tomorrow.

  • I can provide you games and applications for this model. Just get in touch with me at [email protected] and I will provide you. But I can provide you on January 4 as I am still on vacation and I am only using internet cafe. See you all tomorrow.

  • games!!were to find it?

  • so far so good sya, sa reception and quality kapag sa phone. mahina kapag using stock headset.

  • How's the in-call quality? Is it clear and crisp enough to hear the person's voice on the other line? Tnx..

  • All Smart user if you want to Download Opera - Mini and use it for free download it in our site pinoycybertron.wapego.com ... Located @ SITE MENU - VAULT - Opera -mini 4.2 may setting na po jan on how to configure the o.m 4.2 fire fox.. Also you can use the o.m for nokia s60 pone..... The unit comes with opera-mini but needs regular load to browse the net...

  • no hang ups though mabagal sya kapag gamit ng browser. libre ko nakakaupdate ng rss at weather using sun. though mabilis lang makadrain ng battery kasi heavy texter din ako. ang case na naghahang sya sa akin ay yung kapag accessing yung missed calls. pero overall ok ok naman sya. tama lang para sa presyo. yung samsung chat na bago, maganda sana yung looks kaso bad ang reviews nya.

  • sa robinsons ermita sa malate marami ako nakita na shops selling this unit price is 3,450 ata

  • to all filipino who have this phone naexperience nyo rin ba na bigla nagha-hang cellphone na to??? for example while using the bluetooth? or taking shots at the camera? or texting?? sakin may times na bgla nagha=hang

  • are you a globe-user sim??? the phone is pre-installed with gprs and mms settings depending of what network you are using. just choose from the settings and thats it. suncel, smart, globe, red, gprs and mms are already installed just like mine when I bought it. hope it helps

  • are both sims quadband?

  • ot-710 user: are you browsing the net using SUN network for FREE? how? Sharing: Battery Life Dec. 27 12noon: Full Charge Dec. 31 430PM: Low Battery (no more bars on the battery icon) Usage: Mostly text messages only, and occassional listening to radio (less than one hour from full to low battery period). No calls made, no calls received. Few missed calls received. Not bad.

  • yeah same here doesnt have automatic settings for internet..im using SUN internet instead... i can do facebook and tweeter there..try it

  • dave, are you surfing for free? or paid?

  • i bought a blue one at festival mall... thanks sa posts guys i already configured my phone and i am enjoying now globe surfing... guys my games ba for this fone? dave here from alabang

  • #5: merong thread style, pero, nawawala ang mga details like time/date the text message was received. that is why, i opted to use the NON conversation style of sms viewing. Its better to know when and what time messages were sent pa rin in my opinion. The fonts are lovely for me. Though there is no option to change the font size, it is just right. I actually like the font, better than most China Generic celfones in the market. It is a bit unique and this font is Alcatel's "signature" font eversince.

  • kevin: yes, ot-710D is dual sim, dual active celfone sold in manila now for 3,500pesos.

  • 1. Excellent in design. 2. Ayus ang tunog ng speakers, pero i have problems sa headset jack nya ayaw gumana sa isang speaker set ko ang fm radio nya. 3. ok ang voice recorder i use the wav format. 4. dual standby madali ung tabs sa messages pag mag sswitch ka from sim1 to sim2. 5. pangit lang ung treading style nya, sa video kasi sa youtube (commercial), may picture un treaded sms pero sa totoo wla nman. sobrang simple lang ng style. 6. pangit ung font pero large enough naman to read. 7. i recommend this phone to people working on field, kahit kasi nasa labas ka at matindi ng araw panalo pa rin sa linaw ang screen. 8. Camera is better than samsung i think. 9. Mahirap magtxt pero nasanay na rin ako mejo bumibilis na. 10. Mabagal mag read ng images stored on memory card. 8 gig ang mmc na nilagay ko. 11. hindi lahat ng jpeg files binabasa nya, exported pa from adobe lightroom ung mga images na ni reread. di ko pa na discover kung bakit. pero madalas when you download an image from the net and stored directly to the phone file error ang lumalabas kahit 240x320 lang size. 12. ok ung OPERA mini. may installed FB app pero napakabagal.

  • i tried this and it worked. :)

  • Hi Guys I am from Globe Philippines! Yes, as for now we don't have yet configuration for any alcatel Handset Unit, especially for Alcatel OT-710... But, i can give you a parameters where in you can manually configure your setting for GPRS & MMS. Just Follow the Parameters Below: FOR GPRS SETTINGS: APN : www.globe.com.ph HOME PAGE : IP : 203.177.42.214 Proxy # : 8080 FOR MMS SETTINGS: APN : mms.globe.com.ph HOME PAGE : http://192.40.100.22:10021/mmsc IP : 192.40.100.20 Proxy # : 8080 Hope this little things well help you huys, since us from globe this is the only way to configure your phone if we don't have the exact setting... This is already proven to almost top of our subscribers. Especially Myphone & Cherry Mobile User's still didn't supported by globe but upon following the parameters above they successfully now enjoy the service of GPRS & MMS... Just post back guys if you have any question & clarification. I'll be glad to help you!... Thank You for staying Globe Connected...

  • How can we install the internet settings? Some network providers dont have the settings available like globe.

  • I understood the posting rules and the last one, "*Unlocking discussions are not welcome" is the problem Im facing. Havent used the pnone yet and its asking unlock options. Any default unlock unlock keys? Pls help. Thanks.

  • Just purchased this unit a few days ago and it proved to be quite a steal with its price! Performance and feature wise, it can be at par with other touchscren phones in the market. On the downside, this phone may not be well suited for those heavy texters as it is a little bit slower compared to others. All in all though, its a good phone.

  • i was at SM Manila last night. Mega, Aerophone and another store all had this unit but only in WHITE for now. New stocks might arrive after the new year holidays already i suppose if you prefer other colors.

  • or in any sm in cavite?..

  • Guus please help!.. where can i buy the blue one?.. any store here in manila.. thanks

  • Guus please help!.. where can i buy the blue one?.. any store here in manila.. thanks

  • you can listen to the radio on the speaker when you attach the headset.jus press the option scroll down to the bottom of the option and select listen to loud speaker.the headset works as an antenna for the radio.so there's no worry if you want to share the sounds on your radio

  • Ang speaker niya is located also in the earpiece. wala siyang separate dedicated speaker for audio to come out. mp3, ringtones, alert tones all eminate from the earpiece. you have to attach earphone to use/listen to the radio. you cannot turn on the radio because the audio will not come out from the earpiece/speaker. you will be prompted on the screen to attach earphone or else the radio wont start up.

  • may speaker po ba to? malakas ba ang sounds? im planning to buy kasi..

  • Correction: I meant BLANK AREA. Just click and hold the desktop home screen (blank area), then the add widgets option will appear.

  • At SM Megamall, they have booth in the lobby (by Memo Express). They already have the 4 colors: white, black, blue and red. You can also visit the Memo Express in Cyberzone, 4th level.

  • Just click and hold the desktop home screen (black area), then the add widgets option will appear.

  • how do i display the music player in the desktop like shown in the pic?

  • got my new fone today. i'm getting used to it. I think this is a good fone for its price. it's a steal. a little bit slow on texting for those heavy texters out there, but it's enough for me. got the timed sms which is very useful.

  • yes I did the same thing. but still

  • the 710Dual only has the earpiece as its speaker. so it is not stereo. But it is crisp and loud enough to enjoy. I dont believe it can compare to 853 which has stereo speakers. However, using a good earphone (im using Philips SHE6000), the sound is very good. My default is eitehr Pop or Rock equalizer. There is no custom equalizer; you can only chose from preinstalled equalizer modes.

  • to use the QWERTY pad, slide the virtual numeric keypad on your screen to the left or right, and the QWERTY virtual comes out. Thats all you have to do to switch between Virtual QWERTY and Virtual Numeric Keypad. The default, when texting, is the virtual numeric keypad. Im not sure if you can change the settings to make Virtual QWERTY as default. But no big hassle, since its just one slide to the left/right away.

  • how do you use the querty keypad?

  • 1. How much is this in SGP or MAL? (It is 3500 peso in PHL...) 2. How does the speaker sound compare with OT-S853? Thanks!

  • its weird. i tried to send a text to myself using one of the many cute "smileys" which are mostly the green pac-man like cartoon characters available in this 0t-710. Yet, when i received it, those cartoon did not come out; instead the usual " :-) " was shown in the body of the text instead of the green cartoon smiling cutie smiley. weird.

  • tnx bumbum,i hope that this work.i really want to maximize the usage of this phone.as of now all that i can enjoy of it is the sound.because i'm a music lover.it has a really good sound quality.it's so crisp.

  • there are around four stores at SM Manila selling this OT710D all at the same price of 3,499pesos. However, only one (aeraphone) had the black color I preferred. the rest all have the white color. No one seemed to have the red or blue variant. Another i noticed is that when texting, it is speedier if you use the ezI option, which is similar to T9. so far, using the EZI option i seem to complete a word faster than multitapping. I prefer the numeric multitap format than the virtual qwerty on the OT710D. OK ang sounds, merong preset equalizer pero you cannot customize it.

  • global ip? how do you do that can you teach me sir?

  • GUYS try niyo to for apps:

  • It has preset Equalizer such as Rock, Normal, Party. Bass, Treble, Pop, Dance, etc. No custom EQ.

  • How do you use global ip to browse for free?

  • Hi Guys I am from Globe Philippines! Yes, as for now we don't have yet configuration for any alcatel Handset Unit, especially for Alcatel OT-710...

  • up to 8gb external, 3mb ram, 3.5mb rom, nice screen but not so sensitive to touch, nice audio, useless nightmode, mp3 broadcast to fm, better than samsung champ, i use global ip to browse for free

  • Finally got myself a unit at 3,499pesos. black colored housing. (only white was the other available choice and I dont like white, easily gets dirtied). Here are my initial opinions. 1. when you chose CONVERSATION in viewing text messages, you will not see complete details of the date and time the text was sent or received. You have to chose the conventional way of viewing per text message inorder to see the date and time stamp. 2. i find the texting speed response a bit slow too. but tolerable. if you are not heavy texter, it might not be a big deal. 3. nice large fonts. i dont know if you have option to change the size of the fonts yet. I have not tinkered the unit completely. 4. Initially I had a hard time moving the screen using my fingers. I have not used iphone so I have no idea how to use the touchscreen (this is my first touchscreen celfone). However, after repeated mistakes, i think i finally got the trick. 5. nice LED lights on the space between the two buttons informing you of an impending message or missed call not yet viewed. Mine is colored blue LED light. 6. it is very lightweight and is not a bother to put inside your pockets. 7. i dont feel it is "dangerous" to hit the SEND and making a mistake of choosing the SIM1 or SIM2 because after composing, you have to choose which SIM you prefer to use to send the composed text. 8. Im still praying for the availability of Battery Pack for this unit. For now, it is a gamble that I bought it without knowing the future availability of the battery pack. So far, im still happy and excited with my new gadget.

  • if you we'r able to use the internet of this phone,then why does globe says that they don't have any configuration settings for the ot-710?i called them and says that they don't have it yet.and worst,they say that they don't support opera mini tnx

  • nice phone love it,better than nokia

  • ui is like china but this fone is great

  • globe customer service, they'll send u the config for ur unit

  • Which malls in Quezon City (Philippines) are selling this unit?

  • Anybody know how to configure GPRS setting for Globe Philippines? BTW, great phone, cheap, good quality

  • If you want games for this phone, you can email me at [email protected] and I will give you. I currently have 35 games plus 10 applications for this model that are currently running on my unit.

  • Texting from this phone is not as fast as mobile phone worth Php 20,000 plus like samsung wave. I accept that I cannot type faster using the standard virtual keypad compared to my Cherry Mobile T85 but I can type more faster than my Cherry Mobile T85 if I use the virtual qwerty keypad. Just reminding people that this phone gives you two choices in typing your sms and that are: 1. Type your sms via virtual standard keypad 2. Type your sms via virtaul qwerty keypad.

  • touch screen are not so sensitive,, it makes you type ur messages slowly.,, i used opera mini for browsing for FREE on Smart,,, For more info on how to browse using opera mini for FREE just visit pinoycybertron.wapego.com,,, ako Admin dun and itong cp na to gamit ko,, also its really hard to find games that will fit in this pone,

  • May I ask something? Does this phone have equalizer in mp3 player? tnx...

  • how do you record?

  • Tap/click/press-HOLD the widget, then wait until the X marks appear, click the tap/click the X mark to remove the widget.

  • i accidently added widjets to my home screen how do u get rid of them? Also i bought a ringtone and i cant find it on my phone. does anyone know where i should look because i looked everywhere and cannot find it thank you

  • ive been reading comments that the texting is on the slow side. slow meaning quite below average. is this true? or am i reading complaints from heavy expert texters who really have quick keypressing talents?

  • this phone is really affordable just bought mine last sundaya, almost $3500/not really that user friendly but at least it's not common just like the other brands that u can just see anywhere....for me the phone is more of convenience and it's cute..i love it though it doesnt hve gamex at least my screen wont have scratches on it...

  • hi guys,, i have this phone for about 2 weeks,, its good for the price,, very appealing phone.. great sound quality! (but not for loudspeaker coz it doesnt have stereo spiks), bright and large screen! gprs able but not 3g,, for const.. camera settings is too basic!limited java application (games) virtual keypad is somewhat small.. but overall,, for daily use.. its great compare to sam corby and lg t3oo!!

  • In my case, i have successfully browse the net using globe and/or smart. I have not tried using SUN Cellular yet. I will try it when I can and will update you

  • While you are typing your sms, a status bar in the upper right corner of the screen is being displayed. As I am checking my unit, it displays "170(2)". This mean that I am already typing 170 character and I am already reaching the 2nd sms or second page and that when I send it it will be 2 sms. So there is a counter.

  • what network does support this device for internet browsing?pls somebody tell me

  • Yes Roger, it has SMS character counter XXX/X (ex. 165/2) and also page counter.

  • I've seen ones like this on wellcom stores, @ price P3,495

  • can this phone play youtube videos fine?

  • I just want to ask somebody if this mobile is capable for uzzap application in philippines. Tanxx i really like this mobile

  • Hi Nelson. REgarding texting with 710Dual. Isnt there a "counter" that appears on the screen (usually upper righthand) that shows how many characters you have typed inorder to know if you have exceeded the 160 character/text message? Do you only know you have exceeded DURING sending when your screen shows you that it is sending out more than one 160 charactered text mssage? I prefer if there is a counter than knowing later on that you sent more than one. Its better to edit it or squeeze text into just 160 characters.

  • Php3,495

  • i have tried it,and you're right to what have you said.

  • Sorry I misunderstood you. I have not yet tried it because I always freeup my phone's memory. I set my sms to be stored in my sim card and I delete every the previous day's messages I received and send. But I think this phone can hold many messages (sms) because it has 3.5 mb memory for user. Not sure about the actual number but I will try it.

  • Nelson, thanks for the reply. That is a great SMS feature. I am actually asking if the unit supports unlimited capacity SMS (not just limited to say 200) but it supports large capacity SMS or the sms log can be saved in external memory so the internal mem will not get easily full. TIA

  • One good thing makes this phone user friendly is, in typing SMS.MMS you are provided with two options and that is: you can use the virtual standard keypad or the virtual qwerty keypad. Just slide your finger from left to right or right to left.

  • You can type sms/mms until all you want and when you send it you will be notified that it's 2, 3, 4 5, etc. messages. This phone also has SMS Timer feature. That means that you can type sms/mms now and ask the phone to send it later. So if you are typing sms/mms at 1 pm, you can set the phone to send it at 1:30 pm, etc. just like alarm clock and while the time is not yet 1:30 pm, your typed sms is temporarily stored in sent folder (folder where the unsent sms is stored)so you can view it. When the phone's time is already 1:30 pm, the phone will automatically send that sms even if you are not using the at that very time. Just be sure that you have load credits and your phone is not turned off.

  • Mabilis ba ang processor ng fone na'to? How's the speed? I'm considering to buy one. Pls. help.

  • Does this unit supports unlimited SMS?

  • This phone has a very crisp and resistive screen display and that makes it capable under bright sunlight. This means that you can still read your sms or view other items in your phone even under bright sunlight. My Cherry mobile T65 which is almost Php 7,000 cannot be viewed under bright sunligh, not like this model.

  • The games you have downloaded to your phone is not compatible with this model. Mobile phone games are not compatible to all mobile phones. Even the most expensive number 1 brand nokia cannot assure the public that a certain nokia model can run any mobile phone game. For games and applications for this model, you may get in touch with me at [email protected] and I will try my best to provide you games and/or applications for this model.

  • Games dont work in this phone;( im so unhappy for buying this phone. The speaker is poor, camera night mode doesn't even work. A waste of money. It only looks good.

  • and it has also a fm transmitter, which u can play ur songs in any car stereo. as long as u know the frequency being used. ^^

  • Yes.

  • Does this unit supports Threaded SMS?

  • Just tap the "Notes" icon from main menu then choose New text note/voice memo.

  • I´ve been trying to locate the recorder.. Does anybody knows how I can find it?

  • This model only support up to 8 gb micro sd card.

  • does it really only support up to 8gb of micro SD? has anyone tried using a 16gb memory card on it?

  • how are the pictures taken from this phone?

  • how do i upgrade the firmware?

  • mp3 is good enough. just pair it with a better headset since it is a standard 3.5 mm as this also packs a very cheap headset.

  • Hi u all! i was looking for a new phone in festival alabang, this one caught my attn, coz it luks great! after i learned the price! I cant belive its soo affordable!!! I immediately went online to check the reviews and whoa! so far so good! But how bout the mp3? does it sound nice as well! i gez I myt buy one later! CANT WAIT!!!

  • Try to take your unit to the store where you bought it and ask them to load it with the latest firmware. Your unit must have been loaded with the oldest firmware.

  • Just reminding everybody that the preinstalled opera mini in this model is version 5.0 so you don't have to install version 4.0. And yes you always need to have regular load to be able to use opera mini.

  • ders no dual sim activation even 2 sims are insertd,, anyways i just want to know where can i download compatible games for this phone?

  • helo guys i already bought this pone at megamall, for only 3,5k php. as of now its works good, also i installed opera-mini 4.2 for smart so i can browse for free although it has build in opera mini but you must have regular load to use it,, for opera-mini download MOZILLA FIREFOX @ pinoycybertron.wapego.com were you can change your wap setting and enjoy free browsing using o.m 4.2

  • go to settings -> dual sim settings -> dual sim activated.

  • i try dat, i insert 2 sims, but da same thing happens,, only 1 sim is active,,

  • make sure that both sims are inserted before you turn on the phone. upon turning on there should be an option that says "Keep both of your SIM cards active".

  • pde magtanung san available ito preferably yung malapit sa rizal and pasig area.....?

  • guys i bought this phone a while ago,, hmmm why is dat the 2nd sim is deactivated? i dunno how to activate it? and where could i find games that is compatible with this phone? please answer.... thanks!!!!

  • This model has been rennovated according to countries. This is OT-710A in Americas and OT-710D in the Philippines where people used to buy mobile phone that can bear two active sims. You cannot see the sims slots here because GSMARENA displays only the first specifications they received.

  • hello!! this is dual sim? where i put the second sim? i don;t find the place

  • this is the best touchscreen phone with the very low price. great camera, image and video recording, nice and friendly ui, and the dual sim good, not like any other dual sim that displays the network in a disturbing look...

  • It is now new upgraded model - OT-710D Dual SIM.

  • what do you mean portrait form?

  • it's in the portrait form.

  • is virtual qwerty in landscape mode?

  • you must have a gprs connection for you to be able to connect to twitter and facebook.at same time,for you to be able to the web for internet browsing

  • how do you connect to twitter and facebook if it doesn't have wi-fi?

  • just slide your finger to the screen like when unlocking the phone to switch to QWERTY visual.. do this when you're in the 'write text' then slide it on the standard abc visuals.

  • this is my first time to try a touch screen phone. the screen is responsive and error free if you use the alphanumberic keyboard in typing and sending messages. i find the virtual qwerty to small, you need stylus to type without error. dual sim active standby which is perfect. battery life is good. screen resolution is nice and readable even under sunlight. very nifty in features. the size is handy enough and comfortable to use with one hand. i got this for 3,500 philippine peso, a steal for a dual sim, touch screen phone over here. and beside alcatel is french product. it is very good on the cheaper side phone this is.

  • jpxii, please recheck the phone because on page 82 of this model's manual it is stated there that you can switch between the virtual standard keypad and virtual qwerty keypad by dragging the keypad from right to left.

  • So that's what the "D" is for. Just for the record the Model is OT-710D. Nice one son.

  • Im from the Philippines, my girlfriend bought this unit a week ago and I kinda explored the thing. - Dual Sim (Both Lines are Active) - Can read .txt document format but cannot edit. - Nice loudspeakers - 3.5 mm jack, headphones included (Clear audio). - Can play mp4 files - Camera (2MP), slightly slow but good enough (like, half sec. hang time - don't blink!) - No Visual qwerty when texting, only the standard 12345... etc. - No Memory card included - Needs extra care when sending messages if both lines are active - No stylus, ok to use your fingers to tap - No games (strictly business kinda phone), had to install some games from the net. To compare with LG KP500, for me i think they have the same touch response. This is not the high end type of TS Phone but in consideration for its price its really a very nice package

  • its a dual sim phone and dual standby... when you purchase one be sure to look the box if its "alcatel ot-710d" (d) means its dual sim

  • don't depend too much in the internal memory,you can still afford to buy an external memory for that.having a mass memory,for example,a 16GB internal,when you reset the phone,all of your contacts,messages,etc...that is saved on the mass memory will be deleted.take it from me.i know that seriously,specially on the well known brands of mobile phone

  • Can somebody tell me if this phone can record a conversation when making or receiving a call?

  • Also, can we make or assign any mp3 as message alert tone? And will this model play the song continue if you don't touch the phone once it receives sms or mms? Thanks.

  • Thanks a lot. I am going to buy this within this month because the design attracks me but can you tell me if the dual sim is dual active? Thanks once again.

  • no wifi. no tv. lag depends, first have your touch screen calibrated. don't make the internal memory full, this only has an approx 3.9 mb (internal). for me, i experience some lags when accessing missed calls but hey this is a cheap phone. build quality looks ok. you can download the pc suite and software updgrade at alcatel's site. i just use this because i'm tired of using 2 separate phones. though what i dont like is that the text and the ui looks a little "china phone". over-all for price and feature ration. this one is ok.

  • Wow tnx.gr its not on landscape view.keys are too small.but better than using the normal keypad cause its really time consuming.try putting the input mode in simple chinese handwriting thenput it on ful sreen mode.u can write your text.fun

  • If this is dual sim, does this phone have tv and/or wifi feature too? Do you experience any problem lagging or hang up problem with this phone? Thanks.

  • long press then slide to the left or right. try it a couple of times

  • how do i switch to qwerty keyboard when texting?

  • yup you're right! just slide the touchscreen left or right whenever in text mode to switch to qwerty but its too small to press

  • in Wellcom shops at malls they sell different kinds of spare battery for different cellphones such as nokia, samsung, and also alcatel. Its made by KingCom of should I say KingCom brand for class A batteries

  • yes corby its a dual sim and dual stand by phone. I got one myself and its great :)

  • 1. ot-701D being sold in Manila are DUAL SIM/DUAL STANDBY. 2. unfortunately, I wished it had a bigger internal memory for user. 3. im hesitant to purchase any of these alcatel phones because they do not have spare battery packs available for sale. parang mahirap pag walang spare.

  • no

  • anyone knows if this phone has dual standby? meaning to say if we can use both sims simultaneously? Thanks...

  • there is a virtual qwerty, keys are small though. i just learned to switch to it today.

  • its working fine and great! i love the keypad! I am planning to get the OT-710 next month. When does OT-806 coming out?? did you purchased alcatel phone yourself?

  • is this phone has virtual QWERTY keys? please reply.. tnx

  • ot-806 will have a touchscreen plus qwerty keyboard. so far so good. price is really unbelievable. i just bought one now. so far, alert tone is not loud. overall, this seems ok for the price.

  • i bought OT-710D and i love it. i just wanna know if i can change the phone pad keys to QWERTY? or update nalang yun phone pad to QWERTY. mas okay kasing gamitin yun QWERTY sa touch screen.

  • hi!i saw the showcase of new alcatel yesterday in megamall,and this phone is the one that caught my attention.i was surprise to know that alcatel have some new phones.alcatel actually is my first phone i ever had,and they are tough.so,regarding this phone,i could say,it is one the best phone i can advice to the customer to buy.even i work for a cellphone company.He he he

  • Hi guys, just bought this phone and maybe you can help me. I uploaded mp3 songs on the phone but the thing is the music player is unable to detect the songs. When I tap on MUSIC and update songs it says " no music in folder " means the musics are saved on a different folder, how would I know where to save the music?

  • i tested the unit in megamall,and it's really awesome for the price you pay. and you guys should watch out for the OT-806, it's qwerty and touch with wifi, for only 6,299, promo price of 5,999. how's the OT-NET workin' for you son?

  • thank u for that info burn... Its really rare to see Alcatel brands here in the philippines. I'm from pampanga and now all cellphone shops here sells alcatel cellphones. But this OT-710 and OT-NET caught my eye for its simple and unique design. Although I already have the OT-NET..LOL

  • i think i like this phone very cheap, hope it will works with opera mini withou prov file (does it?) like nokia s40 phones.

  • yea and tell us the experience in using the phone, the touch, the dual sim, the browser, the coverage, the audio quality... we sure need some firsthand reports

  • yup son, it's dual sim here in the philippines... i like how it's a tad bit larger than champ and cookie lite and it's cheaper too... corby fisher, nice name... hehehe...

  • is it dual sim???

  • Wow!!!!! A very good touch screen phone for a very low price!

  • yea, agree... in WellCom shops, it's also 3,500 pesos...
