  • I used this phone for 4 years without any Technical issues , I would have drop her for more than 20 times as per my knowledge , i got her as a gift. From the first day when my brother gave me , I droped her down :D . But she worked verywell . i have used it maximum for browsing,vedio editing, photo editing, For data, Downloads calls and other social media, But in 4 years end she is fully damaged after my heavy usage and still it works hard with me. all what i lose is to touch her. Her display stoped working from left bottom of the corner, so i had a trouble of answering all my incoming calls. then after day by day left side of her display stoped work ,so i had to remove her front view without a display kownledge so the display rebon toured. so my question is if i put a new rebon will it work?

  • Please there is no probability or prejudice, this is the worst phone on the planet. A few months in and it starts touching itself non-stop. I press home and it goes to settings, I press music and it goes to messages. I did a factory reset that gave me about 20 minutes of proper functionality after that it was back to being impossible to navigate. Locking then unlocking actually does nothing, this phone doesn't deserve to exist you hear me.:, it's nothing but a waste of whatever mediocre resources were used in it's construction. I wouldn't give this to the most unbecoming person on the planet because no-one is worthy of this phones poor, pathetic and sub-par specifications. Please I may not know you whoever you are but as you read this take my advice and don't buy this hunk of junk.

  • I'm having the same issues with the phone. I think facebook works better with more updated android systems. There is no updates available. Plus the internal memory of the phone isn't large enough. Facebook through the browser works.

  • one about huawei Ascent Y220 is what; 1. Make sure to read again the phone manual book before you use the phone. 2.Clear all opened apps recently after use. To avoid freezing. 3.Do not plug phone when charging. This will create. a long last battery. 4.Clear some apps when memory is full or when you get a prompt message of full memory. 5.Stop using for a some time when phone is hot. This introductions can held the phone to work effectively.

  • I am 2 000 000% happy that i sold my Hawei Y220 today!!! I won a HTC One M8last Thursday, major upgrade...

  • good phone bt it freezes too much selecting apps on its own and it eats a.lot of.data and.air time.

  • Anonymous: The phone is the problem. Return it or sell it.

  • i cant send sms,what might seem to be a problem

  • ANDY I use a 8GB memory card and the mobile phone works fine with the card Just the phone itself is useless

  • This phone freezes and stop working until I switch off and on again I liked it before but now I don't think so

  • To stop the phone from chewing your data bundles or airtime you have to remove some system app buy first rooting your Huawei y220-u00 using latest mobogenie's root app on pc. The app is google play(system). After rooting process remove the the app by using mobogenie's install manager.Turn off some settings 1. Settings->About->online Upgrade->Auto-check new version (uncheck) 2. Settings->location->Use wireless networks(unchec 3. Settings->Accounts & sync->Background data & Auto-sync (uncheck all) lastly uninstall mobogeinie app on phone after using app and voila. It worked on my Huawei y220-u00

  • Best cellphone

  • How to change language to english? My Phone Model is HUAWEI Ascend Y220-U10, Pls advise.

  • Brendan: The freezing etc. is a factory fault with the software from the factory, many people complain about it. my one does is continuously daily, rather irritating. There is no solution to the problem, except for buying another phone or returning the handset if still under manufacture warantee.

  • Can u please submit some answers with regards to the freeezing of the phone and self dialing etc because the only things u answer are with regards to phone wich uses data very quickly.surely disabling auto sync and background data is a solution to this problem however there are so many people tht wants to know wtf is wrong with the screen.is it a factory fault or is it software related?the least u can do is tell us wht is the real problem

  • how can fix error 495 in huawei y220 u00

  • P!NK: You can not do anything, except throw the phone in the face of the owner/C.E.O of Huawei.

  • Charlene Pieters: It is a software problem from Huawei, they do not know how to make proper mobile phones and took a chance using this software etc.

  • I have this phone for a good few months now and i wouldn't even recommend this phone to my enemy. Do not waste your time and money for this junk, it is lower than a entry level smart phone.

  • go to ur phone settings, applicactions and enable install from unknown sources, it will install ur apps

  • Music and headset volume is low. I really like loud music, how can I make it louder

  • Its a not bad BASIC phone.It can barely run some games.Good for a first phone.Buy it second hand-its 15 euros in my country XD.

  • y220 is the phone am using and the problem so far is that it cant install apps.

  • Touch dont always work. Screen jumps to other apps. Have to lock and unlock screen 1st then it works for a moment. Can it be fixed? Or is that the reason the phone was free with the tablet. [email protected]

  • the phone cannot handle apps of 25MB & above so it can't even handle fb app and can't take 3D games

  • you'll only download if you've sign in a google account, else u can't download.

  • its apps are very limited & can't even support 3D games

  • this phone drains away almost all your credit, so its best u transfer your SIM card in anoda phone bfor transfering your credit. hope thir helps

  • Go to settings / accounts and sync. Yu switch of th background data

  • I bought a y220 last december and after a month and 2 weeks of using it the phone went off and didn't start again. I returned it to where I bought it for a new one which im using right now. About 5 days ago some part of the touch screen has become unresponsive. I know in about a month time I would need a new phone. In my opinion if you need a phone to browse,download, take pictures, and perform faster then it sure ain't a y220.

  • This phone has applications that run in the background hence the reason why you keep finding your airtime disappearing. So to avoid this, go to settings, select accounts and syncronisation, then disable background data. If you do that, the data rate is reduced to normal.

  • Folloe the steps to reset your phone if you forgot the pattern: 1) Switch off the phone. 2) Now hold this buttons all together at the same time �Volume up + Power Button� until the phone boots. 3) Now a screen like DOS will come up with different options 4) Use the volume key to move up and down then scroll down to �Restore Factory Defaults� or �Delete all User Data� depending on which is on your device. 5) After clicking on the settings above, now scroll down to �Reboot System Now � and wait for your phone to reboot. 6)Now your phone will reboot and all lock pattern removed.

Its camera is really boring....

  • Small storage. Poor camera quality and no screenshot. How is that huh ?

  • Why does the phone has such a poor quality touch??? small time then the soft keys will spoil why??

  • This is an excellent phone. i know the storage is small but it makes up with the micro sd storage up to 32GB and when you install apps. Download to computer and transfer to miro sd crd and install like that and with everything you download make sure your storage is set for micro sd and not phone. I have been using this phone for 4 months and by following these guidelines i have had no problems If the phone freezes, clear the cache through settings of the apps you are running, it helps to free up memory on the phone, also try and limit your apps to what you need and not what you have on the phone. Love this phone.

  • I can not slide to open my phone cause its locked. s/n: W8LBBAA470445695 IMEI: 856371026041458

  • the phone has too much problems it freezes unstable touch screen, bad qaulity, this phone is good for a person to use it for basic needs like calling amd texting, slow on the internet and small storage.

  • Great phone, but has a few problems. The phone is good for it's price range, but has problems like the touch screen is unstable and inacurate and this phone dows not have a lot of memory. Other than these 2 problems, this phone is great to use. This device us very cheap, and it still outperforms most phones from a higher price range!

  • i have a huawei y22o and its not downloading apps or even games its saying you have no device so what should i do

  • What I'm going to share to everybody is actually my own experience when I first had my HUAWEI Y220 phone. Personally , I can say that it's kinda good , I had fun using it and at first I didn't experience any nerve-shattering problem about it except the one about the memory , Since this phone only have.. what is that ? 1 ? or 2 gb internal memory ? anyway , I tried putting a 4 gb memory card in my phone and at first , it was a great success , I start enjoying every internet service that it can provide (such as downloading apps , etc) but after a month . . I started noticing the problem about the memory lost .. Or what I basically mean is that my memory card becomes unresponsive . You can say that it was attacked by a virus whatsoever , it's just .. it kept on saying .. : CHECKING SD CARD .. and then after a while , it will say .. MOUNT SD CARD eve though my memory card is already mounted and I'm hundred percent sure that it's not due to a virus from personal computer's etc . because I'm not connecting my phone to any other gadgets using usb connectors and I don't remove my memory card in my phone to avoid that kind of problem. But anyway , that problem is already done I already gave my Huawei Y220 phone to my younger brother and everytime I asked him if he encounter the same problem I had the last time I use the phone , he said no .. So I'm thankful for that and hope that this problem will not happen to him no matter what . Over all , Huawei may have some problem regarding it's services , but at the end of the day , I will still choose Huawei as my phone and will give it 5 stars rating even if I already have other phones 'coz it's a really good model of phone and accept it or not , all phone brands experienced different types of problems , the difference will just depend on the brand manufacturer , how will they handle the problem and how would they fix it , for everybody's sake. :)

  • all you need to do is to check your message settings , probably you change it without noticing or maybe you have downloaded a new message application, nevertheless there's a lot of instructions in your message settings , whether it's your defaulted message app or a downloaded one.. kindly double check it :)

  • how can i stop data usage on my huawei acsend y220

  • Great entry level smartphone that is perfect for the price! Everything works - for what the phone is worth. The processor isn't very good though, and I've found that a Blackberry Curve had a more powerful processor. The camera takes great portraits as it clears blemishes etc, but is NOT good for any other type of photos. It's like it has an internal filter to make sure you come out looking flawless. Only problem is, if taking a nature shot - all the trees will be blended together too! The keypad sticks and the phone freezes sometimes. The keypad SUCKS!! Typing is a nightmare and has made me completely HATE responding to emails or whatsapp messages!!!! I feel if you use it to capacity like me (download all your apps and personalize) it just gives up. Sometimes when typing too fast the keypad doesn't seem to be able to keep up. The sound quality also sucks. Even with earphones! But like I said - it's good for the price. But i still feel they could have done more! There are entry level phones that cope better than this gem. Had they spent a bit more money, this would be an absolutely treasure!

  • i wiped my huawei now there is no network i dont know how to set it can anyone please healp me

  • how do one root phone

  • My Experience with Huawei YY220 is terrible, i bought the phone from the SLOT main branch in Port harcourt Nigeria and I never enjoy the phone for more than a week. The good thing about the phone is that the software inter-phase is very good but the rest about the phone is scrap. i even tried to return it but the marketer rejected it on the claim that it has no warranty. The phone touch response is very poor, i cant make straight call for a duration of two minutes because it will somehow mute the call on my end which is very frustrating, i cant type on the screen as it will start to type rubbish and running different applications. Most times, i will try many attempts to call without success but only for the phone to start calling the same number at its own leisure. infact, the phone is crazy and I dont think i believe in Huawei brand any more

  • How do i install instagram on ma Huawei Ascend Y220? Also,ma phone like freezing!

  • Jessy. You can screenshot, download Instagram, download almost anything that Samsung S3 can download. But you need to ROOT your phone first. I can define Rooting as taking control of your device, no restrictions. You can customize your ROM, change from a boring and outdated GingerBread to JellyBean or better yet, to the ultimate KitKat version. Just root your phone, and see all your nightmares disappears. ROOT YOUR PHONE. ROOT YOUR DEVICE. JUST ROOT, AND YOU WILL NEVER COMPLAIN. IT IS NOT THAT COMPLICATED TO ROOT YOUR PHONE. I EVEN TAUGHT MY 9 YEAR OLD NIECE HOW TO ROOT A PHONE. ROOT YOU PHONE.

  • I think you need to be able to root the phone & put a custom ROM on it. However, don't think there are custom ROMs for this phone. I have a Y300 and because I've gone through these processes (have CyanogenMod KitKat 4.4.4 on it), I'm fortunately able to do screenshots. Very useful.

  • No downlode any file.

  • The temple run 2 is not working due to low ram.

  • Ok, let me clarify some bumps here. I use Huawei Y220 U00, been using it for a month now. It's Android GingerBread as you all know. I dont have any restrictions on my device now, i can do almost whatever i want to do with it. Ranging from installing Instagram to other incompatable apps. Yes, i have succesfully installed Insta on my phone together with some add-ons apps that Y220 couldnt handle. Basically i can download and install every given app available on the market, but will be limited by low internal memory, but that's tweakable. No more "Your device is incompatable to use this app". Ofcource you only get this unlimited access to your device only when you've ROOTED your device, CAREFULLY. Benefits, customize your ROM, upgrade to JellyBean, actualy, do everything on your phone that an S3 could do.

  • the camera of my HUAWEI Ascend Y220 is blurd if I take picture. how can i make it clear

  • this phone that am having does not want to download the app so i tried numeras options does anybody who knows how to do share the idea and as for those who their phone freezes they should press thier phone for 5min including all the buttons it should take you to the bios of so after all that just choose the PCBA mode and then it will test the wrong things in the phone please guy can i get the reply about my issue in three hours ciao

  • Um did u save ur photos on GDrive

  • I bought the phone two days ago and the power has cut off.the phone is not working again.what must I do to get the power back

  • Two things you want to do 1. Reduce the number of screens on your phone. Hold on the main screen and a home screen menu will pop up. go to home setting > Advanced Settings > Screen number. Reduce that to one and you won't have a problem with your main screen doing funny stuff. 2. Download swiftkey. It's an app that helps with typing because, it even predicts words you use a lot. You can type full sentences with a few clicks.

  • This phone is good and I just wana put it out there that the Nokia Asha that I had before this phone cost more and crashed all the time. Asha 201 goodbye! This phone is cheaper and by far better. It took some getting used to and I did waste a lot of data bundles on google play but I soon figured out how to get my apps and what this phone's limit is and I am VERY happy with it for it's price.

  • It might be freezing because you've got too much on it. The phone only has 256MB of RAM so having a few apps running at the same time might slow it down. Delete what you don't need. hope that helps.

  • No problem sister. What you may be using is google store to download the apps. I was using the same site and I would wait and wait for it to download before it would say that it failed. What I then tried was something called appsapk and it worked! whatsapp, antivirus, even the holy bible app can be found by justing typing apk after it. Here's the link

  • Mine freezes 24hrs. Very disturbing. I would like to return it

  • Mine freezes 24hrs! It is very disturbing. What should I do?

I love this phone i dont want to take it back but if I dont get help i might not have a choice, cause I live breath social networks

  • I bought this Huawei phone 4 days ago and it does not allow me to download any Apps no whatsapp, facebook and twitter. what kind android phone is this really dissapointed

  • Just click (and then hold, if it's a touchscreen phone) on the message in question. You'd then see a list of options; "delete" is among them.

  • its quite awesome, just that the internal memory is very low, cant load much apps

  • dats de same problem am facing bomb

  • How do I delete indivivual messages on watsapp on this phone. I am forced to delete all messages

  • It's hard to download all of the applications I want because of the low phone storage. Even if I have 4 Gb memory card , it still can't store every apps I want. Hope you improve Huawei's upcoming version's phone storage so that every one of us can enjoy more and more apps. without using Samsung or Apple , etc. Thank you and more power !!!!!

  • I agree with you, the internal memory sucks.. If they can put internal expansion in their firm upgrade, it can rock indeed..Its internal memory is very low for a smart phone

  • Its a great phone, no need to buy Samsung S4 or S5.. Huawei is bringing tech to ppl at a low price but the only problem with Y220 is the ram..Its a very small ram for a Smart phone. Limited space is boring as i can't download apps as i please never minding the space..Please increase the ram and this brand will rock all over the world.

  • i have been using mine for 3 days, so far so good, very cute little thing to have

  • Well if ur phone doesn't read ur sim card plz make sure dat u putted it in de correct place. And someone plz help me sometimes my photos doesn't show and sometimes it does what could be the problem

  • my ascend y22 is not charging what is the problem it started saturday

  • It keeps on freezing nd operates itselfs at times...That is the only problem it has

  • This phone is not even 9 months old, it was announced in December and released by March. So stop lying to people and to yourself. If you cant afford one, stop with your negativity and you might get one as a present. Keep it cool and be real.

  • It is 0.3 mp. The price is R549, so the phone is still a hit with that kind of price

  • I have this phone for a week now. I must say the pricing of this item does not correspond with the phone itself. It is more than value for money, it is the cheapest smartphone (Android) with a lot to offer. When i bought it, i wasnt aware of what kind of phone was it. I never heard nor seen it until i bought it. I just happened to see and liked it. I cant complain, no internet problems, easy to navigate it, portable, easy to download and install apps, fast pace internet speed and most importantly the battery life is totally amazing. Downloading Avg was the best thing i did for this device. I type this opinion with the phone in question (Huawei Y200 U00). Im starting to doubt the authenticity of complains im seeing, i think whoever is worried about RAM, is allowed to do so as its a bit low. But given this price (R549), it is super dubah.

  • Hi, am using Y220 its now 2months old but it freezes, even whn typing & th touch malfunctions. I almost crused it yesterday what could b th problem?

  • If you want decent RAM from Huawei, then you have to be prepared to spend more and buy an Ascend P6 or P7, which each have 2GB RAM. The Y300 & G510, like the Y220, also suffer from low RAM (512MB), so it's not even worth considering those, unless you root them & load KitKat, which I've done on my Y300, and makes it a better experience.

  • The Huawei fones are a pleasure to use with the touch screen but the Memory an Ram are disaster .please huawei improve the fone memory on y220 make it at least 3g or 4g and ut will be the best foni ever . Only dat otherwise everything is super

  • Sorry, Denese. I just posted re your query, thinking I was in the Y300 thread ; I follow both the Y220 & Y300. Had therefore thought you were on Jelly Bean on a Y300. However, as you're on Gingerbread, what you want to achieve might not work on the phone. Try as I described, but if not, revert to your GMail a/c on PC.

  • I think you're referring to "labels", as Google term them, not 'folders' as we'd be inclined to. I usually do this on PC - had a look at my GMail a/c on Y300 phone now, and if you open each email in Inbox, there should be in top-right corner, 3 vertical dots. Touch them, and either select "Move to" or "Change labels". I think if you select "Move to", it will not only move it out of the Inbox, but to Archives (ie. "All Mail") & label whatever you choose, at the same time. Just test check 1 or 2 mails first, to see where they land up, so you can find them afterwards. If you can't do as described, it may be you're on a different GMail app version to me - mine is Version 4.8 (1167183). There's a newer version out, but I don't know up to which version your phone can go to, as you might still be on Android Jelly Bean version 4.1.1 ; I'm on KitKat 4.4.4 as I rooted my phone, so possible you might not be able to do the labelling on phone, but only web interface on PC.

  • hi ive been looking for this phone for a week now i am told they are out of stock my location is Jhb Brixton, anyone who knows where i can find it please email me [email protected].

  • hi i want to buy huawei y220 bt i am confused bcoz people say it is hard to type and it doesnt download facebook and watsapp easily is it true

  • Put any SIM you want into the phone, if you don't like MTN - Voda. / Telkom Mobile / Cell C / Virgin Mobile. Then, if your settings are the same or similar to the Y300 (I have), go to SETTINGS - MOBILE NETWORKS - NETWORK OPERATORS. The phone should search for them all. You can choose for it to automatically select the operator, or select Voda. 2G or 3G. You can select 3G here, but ensure in your Mobile Network settings that 3G is off when you don't need it, otherwise your data bundles might disappear without you knowing it! One thing you should do is ensure your apps aren't set to update automatically (don't know if that happens directly from the Google Play store, as I use Appbrain to access new Android apps.).

  • My huawei Y 220 is always malfunctioning every time I don't know what's the problem and I like my phone

  • Go to system settings >> Accounts >> Google >> remove your Gmail account From settings >> Apps >>All >> Force stop, Clear data and cache for Google Play Store, Google Service Framework and Download Manager (like in method 1) Again, go to settings >> Accounts >> Google >> Add your Gmail account Restart your android and then accept all the Google terms and setup Google settings Run Google Play Store and update or install your app.

  • it is a great device i bought it 2 month ago and i've downloaded many apps on it, i buy it here on south africa for only R549

  • hi you can try downloading an app called poot from 4shared

  • You shouldn't post your email address on a public forum. Concerning selecting other networks: I see you have these others to choose from : Vodafone Tigo Airtel Glo Expresso Telecom I have a Y300, but assume you could do the same on your phone .. go into : Settings - Mobile Networks - Network Operators , and it should automatically scan for them all. Choose the operator you want, 2G or 3G, assuming you can roam on a different network using your existing SIM card.

  • For those of you with typing issues - why not download an alternative keyboard from Google Play, like "Touchpal X". It's 100% free, with very good word prediction. Remember to make it the default keyboard in your phone's settings, as well as in the app, when you set it up.

  • Change relevant settings, if not already done so, but following this broad explanation : Then, try download the app directly from the website (not from Google Play) : However, could be that you've downloaded a more recent version of Whatsapp which is not compatible with the older Y220 operating system. Therefore, try getting an older Whatsapp version from a site such as this : I don't know if they include malware in these old downloads, which could be problematic, but only way to find out is to take a chance & see !

  • Js call vodacom. They wl send u the settings

  • Don't know if this will help, but try using : MX Player It's a much better player than the standard ones that come out on phones - can use MP4's & MP3's. Make it the default player, and go through / change settings within the player itself to make it more functional - for eg. fast fwd or back within a video or MP3 is not setup as default, but can & should be changed in the MX Player settings. Maybe using this will help you solve the bluetooth problems.

  • Besides Mtn can i use a sim card of another network (8-ta) in the phone and if so what are the settings?

  • Get hold of another SIM (cheap/free Prepaid SIM from the same or different network) and see if it does the same thing - if it does, the phone may be faulty. If it doesn't, then the existing SIM may be faulty, in which case you should discard it.

  • pls help my phone said no sirm but the sim is on the phone

  • the bluetooth is discoverable but when the song is entering on bluetooth device ,sending just stops.it says "sending failed".what can i do?

  • It's prompting you to add a Google account, so you can thereafter load apps from the Google Play Store. Once you've added a Google username & password in the account settings, you'll need to also log on via the browser (so Google can 'spy' on your activity!). You can switch off "Location" & other options both in the phones settings, and browser, so it limits what Google gain from you being logged on in order to simply load apps.

  • Try settings in this link : ­ Scroll down to Vodacom.

  • This is a really good phone and its able to run high end games, apps and it has great graphics. The only draw back is that the an official update to higher operating systems haven't yet been released. I'm pretty sure that as this phone gets more hits and as more people get interested in it, huawei will release either jelly bean or kitkat. This might happen when it gets a million hits or so hits

  • i installed an antivirus from the 2nd day i bought. it never gave me any trouble.

  • Well you can buy it at cna westgate

  • Try the following: Go into Settings - Apps, then scroll across to the end, to "All". I have the Y300 and most/all Android phones should have similar setup. Look for & click on each app causing you problems, like "Messaging", "Phone". First try "Force stop" (ignore warning about misbehaving!, for now at least while you test it out). If you still find it's using airtime/data, then "Disable" it for the times not in use. Can't guarantee it'll work 100%, but if it does, at worst it's an inconvenience, and at best, will save you your money spent on airtime / data. Note that if you rely on incoming calls/messages on this as your PRIMARY phone, then I'd suggest not force stopping / disabling these things. But if you want to continue using the phone for other apps not causing problems, then I suggest you use a cheap feature phone for calls/messages with your main SIM in, and this Y220 for the rest of services, like I do on the Y300. Also, in Apps, under "Running", you can Stop "Messaging" for eg., etc. - probably less of a vulnerability than Force closing the app & it might work.

  • phone is ringing.but sometime can receive my phone.sometime can't receive.how can solve this problem....please...help

  • Overall, I'd say it is a good phone for its price. However, to name a few issues: - Touch screen only supports 2 fingers max - Touch screen stops responding if pressed rapidly when playing games - Typing is not accurate when in portrait view, only in landscape view - Android 2.3.6 (Gingerbread) does not support certain apps, such as Google Chrome - Phone lags when opening large websites, due to the low RAM (only 256MB RAM. should have at least 512MB to run properly). - Internal memory is too low (only about 146MB), which is probably why a 4GB SD card is included - Camera is only 1.2 megapixel, does not have flash and picture quality is bad in areas lacking sufficient light - HD videos (720p, 1080p) lag - No custom ROM (e.g. CyanogenMod) available yet, due to closed source code of chipset drivers to name a few pros: - Dual core CPU is power efficient and makes the phone run smoothly compared to more expensive single core phones - Fast internet speed on HSDPA+ - Has everything that the average person really needs in a phone (fast internet speed, Whatsapp, Instagram, YouTube, etc.)

Perhaps there are still some available because they were being sold in many stores, including MTN, Jet, Edgars, Foschini, etc., all for the same price. CHEERS

  • This phone is the best smartphone on the market right now regarding it's low price.it's far much better than it's rival the Samsung Galaxy star. it runs very smoothly. the touchsreen is very responsive. i have installed a new launcher on it and it looks amazing. i have installed tons of apps (all which work brilliantly) Have some games in it too.i try to install only those below 100Mb though,just so it runs. without lags. my only wish is for Huiwei to give us an update to OS 4. though :-) *phone is amazing! i give it 09/10

  • This thing sucks! The phone recognizes touches even when i'm not touching it, and also the home button presses itself closing my apps and opening google search. both events usually happen at the same time. Sometimes the phone's okay, sometimes is more unstable than a 15 year old girl in her period, the only thing i like about this phone, it's the fact that it let's me play plants vs zombies 2. Even in games the damn phone glitches. 0.5/10 stars and i'm being too generous.

  • Once U have downloaded whatsapp U go to settings, select applications then make sure that the option unknown sources is enabled. Then start installing, your whatsapp will work.

  • People who screen comments before uploading them this is for u. The phones retail price in RSA is the equivalent of $50 us. The average man on the street who will buy this phone can barely understand the jargon on the android os. Please compile a short how to on how to make use of storage on this phone. In laymans terms. This is honestly one of the better phones on the market due to its affordabily vs features. Just takes one or two pointers in the right direction. Tx

Firstly go into your menu then into your ES file Explorer, then choose the apropriate file and select what you want to send by touching and holding it in till the options screen Pops up, then you just scroll to share and use the bluetooth option and there you go. I hope this helps

  • best commment ever read on here. just remember for this phone get a application called Onovo Count to monitor your data usage unless its already built in unlike ver 4.0 as for bluetooth file transfers you can download bluetooth file transfer applications what i used to use back when i was on 1.6 andriod. work for vodacom in cpt everyone was asking about this phone yet we dont stock this in our stores funny it should be.

  • thought only 4.0 andriod can take it.. is that fixed

  • cause you need to monitor it dummy. download and install Onovo count (monitors and limits your data usage plus tells you what you use on what application) will help a lot and of course get a data bundle to not take your airtime but rather your data bundle..

  • will we ever get the answers here!!!!!!!!!!!how do you send and receive fills?

  • I bought the phone at CNA in PTA South Africa. R400. Great value for money. Only problem is no space on device. It came with a 4gig card though. You have to go into settings and choose the option to install apps to the SD card. After that I was able to load more apps. Even though the android version is v2.3 (Gingerbread), I was able to install and use Facebook, Whatsapp and BBM. I also used some photo apps and games like candy crush. The camera is a poor vga one, but you can only expect as mush from such a cheap phone. I was impressed with what I got for the little money I spent. Great buy and good starter android for kids.
