You get 1006 version only with Alcatel mobile upgrade application, over pc.
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kambizsm:
they removed the update :) i guess due to bugs like wifi error and lock screen widgets and stuff...untill they are fixed
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pera987:
I didn't know that, I have some WiFi error showing, but it is working fine, and for lockscreen, yeah, widgets would be great.. Where did you get that information that they are working on update of this bugs?
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] kambizsm:
i didnt...just an idea because it's not even good enought comparing with 4.2.2 :) some of built in apps like swiftkey keyboard and lock screen widget are missing so maybe they are fixing them
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] pera987:

[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] bryanjay420:
bro i already have that file. before you can flash the rom you have to partition your system (system = 1.16gb, custpack = 100MB). please download that .rar file in the post and link it here. it contains EBR1 and EBR2. you have to flash it via sp flash tools. and by then you can flash the firmware via recovery. i want to try that rom

for us to try this rom we need to repartition system. i tried doing it but im so noob :P. in 4pda site there is a modded file flashable via sp flash tool. if we can have that we can try it here :)
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Colourphiliac:
Hi, can someone please upload a back up of the Alcatel 6040A (either touchwiz or CWM)? Mobile Upgrade tool doesn't work because I have a different ROM used. I've tried flashing the 6040X pro_info and that doesn't work either, I was hoping to find a 6040A pro_info as well.

The reason I need this is because my data connectivity doesn't work properly. I'm using the 6040A modem.img from 4.2.2 and I have restricted data. From some reading, I think this happened because the baseband on the dual sim ROMS are different.

As a warning, I don't suggest installing different ROMs on your Alcatel 6040A (without making a backup like I did) until this issue has been sorted out.

Hi I got a problem.

I have TCL Idol X

It don't want turn on. When I hold power button then nothing happend. Power button and volume + don't work too.

But when I connect phone to charger or computer then phone turn on and logo one touch idol and again black screen, and all time.

I can flash rom and I tried it with SP flash tool, but it didn't help. Maybe anyone have some idea?
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Incineroar:
So I had my phone sent out to a company (The place I got the phone at, who was run by the company I sent it to, Glentel) for repair, but sent it back unrepaired so I could send it to my phone provider for repair. I'm not sure if anyone else has this issue, but the device likes to crash and reboot all the time on stock. Like, it's completely random, but it just completely crashes and reboots. It works fine after though, except for the last time this happened. These crashes happen very infrequently though.

This time is a bit different though. It crashed, then rebooted as per usual, but now it's crashing a whole ton more. Like, it will crash at any possible time. It can crash when the device is booting (When it shows Alcatel/Smart Move boot logo or the blue Android logo), when the lock screen first appears, or any time after, totally randomly, and it does this enough to the point that the device is almost completely unusable. Has anyone else had a crashing issue like this before? It's nothing I've ever seen. I've used everything in my arsenal to fix it, including factory resetting, using Mobile Upgrade S to restore, removing the Sim/MicroSD card, absolutely nothing fixes the crashing.

And these new crashes are unusual, too. They completely lock up the device, and if any sounds are playing, they'll be stuck on the particular tone that was playing at that exact moment, and if you let it sit for a minute, it just eventually shuts itself off on its own.

Hi, do you know any rom with polish language except rus01001 (1. This one locked one sim slot. 2. Receivers hear some regular pop during talk). Thanks
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Incineroar:
So, in having another device, as well as a CM11 device, I found that adjusting the volume and having the screen turn on became rather annoying, as well as a waste of power. On the stock rom, I found a way to disable it, and it will not bootloop you, either. I was looking for a build.prop way to change this, and the method that I did find (Adding ro.config.hwfeature_wakeupkey=0 to build.prop) failed to work, until I found a slightly more permanent method:

1. Get a root browser and browse to /system/usr/keylayout/mtk-kpd.kl. Open it as a text file.

2. Find the "VOLUME_UP" and "VOLUME_DOWN" keys (They're near the top of the file), and remove "WAKE_DROPPED" from them.

3. Save (Make sure it's as a .kl file, not a .txt file, or else it will not work), and reboot. The volume keys will no longer wake the device when using them. You can now adjust the volume of your device without having the screen turn on!

Similarly, you can also map other keys to do whatever you want them to do, such as launching the camera, and whatnot. You can find more about that here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=695936

Also, word of advice: DO NOT remove "WAKE_DROPPED" from the Power button - it will render your device unable to turn on the screen unless you get a phone call.

Edit: Found the device Engineer Mode secret code: *#*#825364#*#*. Enter this code in the dialer and knock yourselves out.

Also, possible free unlock, I need to test: Enter the dialer code, ->Simme Lock -> Service provider personalization -> Unlock permanently.

So in the OP, apparently Gravitybox works, but I can't seem to get it to work, it just bootloops my phone. Anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix it?

I went to the GB JB page and talked with the developer about it, but he can't see anything wrong in my logs as to what's causing the error.
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Aliante:
Are you using the latest version of Xposed? If so you need to go back to a previous version (2.3.1) if you want to use GB.

The newest Xposed versions are known to generate boot loop with some modules.
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Incineroar:
Oops apparently I wasn't thinking properly.

Anyways, I've installed it, and since it doesn't have a boot-time disabler, I'm working on backing up my rom in case any of the modules don't work properly for me.
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Aliante:
You should also be able to disable it by flashing Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip from any custom recovery.

Never had to use it so I cannot speak by experience, but it might be wort a try it in case of need before going to full restore of the rom.
[Alcatel Idol X ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other ] Incineroar:

Can I pick someone's ear on rooting and installing ROM's for a minute? I'm tech savvy, but this will be my first Android modification and ROOT/ROM process.

Why am I here? I'm trying to root an Alcatel one touch Idol X 6040A and then install the most functional ROM that's higher than the 4.2.1 JB version I already have. AFAIK VROOT is the best option although some people still have issues afterward regarding ROM installations and Network connectivity.

I have yet to find a tutorial specific to the OT 6040A with positive feedback, so I'm very reluctant and hesitant to attempt this until I've done ALL of my homework.

Can someone possibly direct me to definitive ROOTing and ROM installation instructions that have been verified to work?

if bootloop was caused by Xpossed + GravityBox, you can disable xpossed during boot

there is a hardware key combination to disable it

right after first logo, when bootanimation starts, press one hardware button, phone will vibrate long

then press key 5 more times. it should start with xpossed disabled.
