i am on my 6045Y on 010.03 since july. also waiting for the update. will talk with alcatel support here in czech republic.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DallasCZ:
so my 6045Y europe with german/slovakia/czech language (now on 0101 03) got 367,7mb fota (010 03 - f*king alcatel they let the same version number).

So, what i did:

-put back to system the uninstalled system apps and original build.prop (and set the right permissions for them), stock recovery. I made no other changes, so the rom should be stock right now.

-disabled root (not uninstalled)

-downloaded update

-copied from data/data/co.tcl.fota/.downloadcache to sdcard (for upload to google drive)

-uninstalled root

-reboot

-run the update

-reboot

-if something will be buggy,then i will do factory reset (its always better to do it right away, but we will see).

So now i am on latest 6045Y (german/slovakia/czech) with same version 010 03 , fastboot and adb are working !!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
I tried to install this one, but it fails at verifying update package..

I'm on 5.0.2-040
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DallasCZ:
Why do you want to apply update from 010 to 020 on your 040 firmware for god sake? :confused:
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
Well, my theory is that if the firmware is without any carrier on it, it would remove the sim carrier restriction from mine, wich is locked to vodafone
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DallasCZ:
but hte file is only update file which patch 01 firmwar efiles..

I dont know about carrier locked firmwares, but if it wil lbe locked only on firmwar elevel, then you need to find firmwar ecorresponding to your device (6045Y/K/I) and to your country region. Then you can flash the firmware. You didnt wrote what device do you have.

The firmware you can find HERE
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] petrov.0:
This is an incremental update. If it says that is not for your device don't flash it.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
It was for my device [6039y]
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] petrov.0:
These are only system/boot images for 6045. The sim lock is not there.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
I found this "OT_6039X_6045X_20150717.tar.xz" This is the whole firmware ? And if it is, i flash it trought recovery ?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DallasCZ:
No this is the source code. Please do not flash anything, it sounds that you dont know what are you doing! :)
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] petrov.0:
6039y has many versions depending on the region for which the device has been produced. Again, when it says that is not for your device don't flash it.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
I really don't, i Had an s4 mini, wich was very eazy to figure out :-s, this thing it's very weird :-??
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DallasCZ:
nothing is weird. I personally dont get why you buy a carrier locked device if you want to use it on another carrier.

Flashing a firmware is easy... You have to find TWRP backup of 6039Y device from your region (yes there are several region mutations for 6039Y), and make restore from TWRP. But this images contains only kernel(boot) and system so it dont unlock your phone.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] petrov.0:
Just because someone else has did it before you and has provided instructions how the other users to do it, doesn't mean that it was easy for him.

If you don't know what are you doing don't flash anything because there is a big chance this to end with a bricked device.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
It's very different than the pattern that Samsung uses for its firmware, anyway..

I had Vodafone, and bought this phone, even do i knew it was locked in Vodafone, but I had to move to another carrier provider 2 weeks later, and terminate my contract with Vodafone, so I got this carrier-locked phone..

I guess the last option is to pay those 10e for sim unlock code from Vdf
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DallasCZ:
only 10e? So this is probably the easiest, fastest way to get unlocked, why to bother with flashing and risking to brick your device?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Scutariu:
I didn't say it wasn't hard for anyone, I just expressed my opinion, and we're grateful for those who risked before us ;)

It is pretty ok, despite the fact that vodafone takes its time to provide you with that code[ as I heard, about 2 weeks :-s ]

6045I Update 20150928

Just received an update on the 5.5 to:

5.0.2-7SRA-UEA2

Cannot find any documentation about this update on the web.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] nickalltogether:
Just installed this update as well. System is still settling so not sure what difference to expect, if any.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] fubugang:
Did the new update reinstall stock recovery? Are you still able to use adb commands?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] nickalltogether:
I'm not familiar with using adb commands, unfortunately. I still have USB debugging, which I know is one of the things necessary. I'm too new with the whole "development" aspect to know anything further about adb commands.

Edit: Are you assuming I already am running TWRP and/or rooted? Haven't made it that far yet if so.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] fubugang:
Yes, I assumed you installed twrp and rooted your device. I apologize
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] nickalltogether:
Haha. I'll look in to TWRP now... nothing better to do at the moment anyway haha.

Do we still have band 12 LTE (T-mobile)

Before upgrading to 7SRA- UEA2 has anyone checked to see if band 12 LTE is still enabled or did Alcatel follow suit with motorola and give in to T-mobile's pressure?

Thanks!
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] MTTech:
Band 12 (700MHz)

Yes, after updating to 7SRA-UEA2 Band 12 is still enabled.

My 6045i is showing a 53mb update to 10_01 here in the USA. Anyone else?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Muskoka:
Curious about something. I have a 6045i Canadian version (Telus) that was "broke" (speaker phone issue) with the latest update from "Telus", I guess? So I flashed one of the U.S. versions, 7SR4-UE40, and everything is working great. My phone isn't rooted, and still has stock recovery.

I see guys talking about a update out today. Will I be able to get this update seeing as I flashed a U.S. firmware? I don't see anything available yet. Where do these updates come from, my service provider Telus, or from Alcatel?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] MTTech:
7SRA-UEA2 update

Yeah, That is the same 7SRA-UEA2 build update I posted above you. With performance improvements.

---------- Post added at 11:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

Updates are through Alcatel OneTouch.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] famewolf:
Alcatel continues to make things more confusing. Previously the update showed actual revision number but now it shows 10_01 for UEA2?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Muskoka:
Thanks, so if updates are through Alcatel how are they rolled out? Shouldn't I be seeing it? Or, do they send out by "regions"?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] techware7:
Shows 5.0.2-010 01 for me. Will update in a couple of hours and see what the fuss is...
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] MTTech:
This is what the update notification said for my phone.

---------- Post added at 02:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:59 AM ----------

That really depends on the manufacturer, and how Alcatel chooses to roll them out. Other companies roll out updates by region and in phases. Meaning a random batch of phones get them first then later on another batch of phones received the update. This helps minimize congestion on the servers. Now, because your phone is the canada version, and you flashed a US rom. I'm not sure how Alcatel determines which phones receive the updates.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] keyra74:
no update for 6045Y for now :(
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] Muskoka:
Still no update here in Canada. I'd flash back my "Canadian" backup to see if the update is available, but the only one I have has the speaker phone issue. With no mention of that being fixed in the release notes, guess I'm staying put for now.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] petrov.0:
It is available again.

Sent from my 6039Y
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] rveb:
Many thanks for that.

I have made the same modifications on my update.zip file (updater-script file). Applied ok (build 01005) with fastboot available!

However, when I check for updates, the same release is still offered to me. Idem for you? (@petrov.0, @DarkZell666).

About phone

Model number

6039Y

When System Updates checked

=> New fw version is 5.0.2-010 05_20150827_064648
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] famewolf:
You can go into settings, apps and wipe cache/data for the system update checker....this will "reset" it.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] DarkZell666:
Yep, same happened to me. And the trick suggested by famewolf works :)

In french, it's "Paramètres => Applications => Tous => Mises à jour => Effacer les données".

You'll have to remove root first if you want to check for new OTA updates again (if you rooted your phone).

Edit : Using the RootCloak Xposed module on the OTA update app ("Mises à jour" in French) enables downloading OTA updates on a rooted device, I just tried it, so removing root is luckily unnecessary ;)

And indeed, version 5.0.2-01005 is the latest available for us right now.

Also, I would not risk it installing a future OTA update without patching it with petrov.0's OTA update patcher. Not just yet.

However it would be interesting to figure out wether a future OTA update restores fastboot commands or not (or at least stops removing them again and again),

and I'm not sure we could figure that one out without someone actually trying to install it.

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] famewolf:
Did you reboot after you added it?

I also posted a thread in general about disabling journaling in ext4 on system, userdata and cache...this will give a small improvement on file writing since it can skip the journal'ing step. The journal being disabled is a default for nexus 5 and 7 marshmallow.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] fubugang:
Yes I rebooted,also made sure permissions were set correctly
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] famewolf:
Will look into it shortly! I'm just wrapping up putting a port of Android 6.0 on my nexus 4 (which didn't get marshmallow even though nexus 5 did) so if it works ok the nexus 4 can provide internet while I work on the alcatel a bit (testing this build.prop as well as the chinese rom).

Did the chinese rom only get an update or did the updated rom get leaked? If so do you have a link?

[Onetouch Idol 3 General] pedjadroid:
What is your version after updating?
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] dondanilo:
It's the same version number. But the update had around 470MB and it took at least 20 minutes to update and optimize apps. The update deinstalled Viber and some game apps that came preinstalled. However, except some really minor cosmetic changes, I do not see any difference. The double tap screen wake function still does not work like it should, although it is better than before (just for example).

Do you think the fact that Google is now requiring OEMs to use full-disk encryption for upgrades to Android 6.0 is a bad thing for the prospects of the Idol 3 getting Marshmallow? Has anyone enabled full disk encryption with 5.0.2 and noticed a performance hit?

Source: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/1...ll-disk-encryption-by-default-on-new-devices/
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] pivoq:
I'd guess devices that were released before Android M are excluded from this requirement.
[Onetouch Idol 3 General] famewolf:
That was enacted to protect sensitive information getting stolen off cell phones...the problem is if you enable full disk encryption suddenly you can't access the sd from TWRP...or adb (it might have support)....I haven't heard anything indicating either of those have support for FDE.

*update* Apparently TWRP DOES have support to mount a FDE storage. If adb and twrp can access it I'd say there's no reason NOT to enable it...today's hardware should easily handle it.

the alcatel company make this a little bit harder, they have 6045x versions and 6039x versions and also this versions they divided to some regions, so french 6045 got allready 01007 update, we in czech, german and slovak have still 01003 update. But the Czech 01003 is the same as French 01006..and so on. And the Czech 6045 get two months ago the update and the update had same build number (01003).
