Okay. I was able to return to stock using SPFT and a ROM (different from the original of my service provider of my pixi 5045A but functional). I had some problems and SPFT gave me some errors performing the process (I had to format the smartphone from SPFT using the "format whole flash except bootloader" option and then perform the flash by unchecking the preloader option).

At the end mi Pixi 4 is functional again.

However, for some reason now I cannot install TWRP Recovery. SPFT gives me an error about the MPT and asks me to format from SPFT.

From previous experience, I know that when formatting from SPFT I will lose the stock ROM and will have to repeat the whole procedure again.

It has been a pleasant adventure but I will settle for my ROM stock (and its bloatware) since I do not want to go on trying to find solutions.

As always thanks to this generous community and its contributions. Keep up the great work you have been doing.

I hope that my experience helps other users and I get in order to explain the process that I summarized in these lines.

P.S. With the ROM stock I return my IMEI number.

P.S. I will return to XDA when I have another smartphone to experiment with ...

If you root your phone, you can try to debloat it manually (make a backup before uninstalling any app) using this app : https://f-droid.org/packages/de.j4velin.systemappmover/ (I'm pretty sure there are better/newer apps for that). :)
[Android General] calbertrick:
These Alcatel's, like all mtk's I've played with, install all their own drivers. Plug it in, you choose use as installer ( cd-rom). Even the edl drivers, so no need for the 3rd party root-kit downloads.

I make some mistakes and format before i do backup :crying:

[Android General] ClaudioG123:
I have an Alcatel Pixi 4 Power Plus and i want to install a custom rom, but i go to the thread and the roms that are there are not for my phone, the 5023f one, always 5010 or another model, 5010 is compatible with mine ? if so, i can assume that i can flash it
[Android General] breversa:
Best think to do is take a full backup using TWRP, try to flash and boot your ROM, and see what happens. If it works, you're good to go. And if not, reboot to TWRP, and restore your backup.
[Android General] ClaudioG123:
Well, tried to roms from here with the 5010 / MKT6580, and he detects that is not the same model, there are no custom roms for this model 5023F? if not, i would like to see ways to increase performance not by much
[Android General] breversa:
Well, those phones are entry-level ones that do not generate much interest, have mostly had only one, maybe two production runs, and almost no manufacturer support. That's why you won't find much ROMs or developments for them.

When you open magisk manager, install the one thats not installed and press "select and patch file".

Choose the file download under "recovery" for your exact phone from the thread post, it will make a file. Copy that file to your laptop and then use that as your boot image in fastboot mode. :cool:
[Android General] somnomania:
I never got an answer to this question, is this model still unrootable? If that's the case then it really is a useless piece of crap; I bought it for $20 at Walmart, not knowing about locked vs unlocked phones, so I've never even been able to use it to make calls because I can't afford the three months of service time to get it unlocked. At this point I'd just like to root it so I can free up space with the built-in apps that I don't need, so it has room to update the apps I do use.

the error number?

OMG, 300 pages ..

can someone please tell me if this is possible:

- clone the current internal storage to an sd card

- rewire the boot process to only use the sd card

running on Android 6.0 now, don't really need another version or roms, just want to get rid of the memory warnings .. at least for now :)

how i can install this recovery img?
[Android General] elfigus:
Hello guys, I have a problem and I hope someone can give me some tips

I have 13 smartphone Pixi 4 4034 that should be 4034x looking into the phone info, and I am not able to put a custom recovery on them.

I need a custom recovery in order to restore from SD my backup, and i was able to root and put a custom recovery on lots of Pixi 4 4034 Version , but not this version 4034X-2AALGBA-1, and all these 13 pixi 4 has this model label under the battery.

I' ve tried every recovery I was able to found on the internet, any combination with SP flash tool with stock scatter file + custom recovery only but I wasn't able to do anything.. any tips?

Thanks in advance
[Android General] elfigus:
you have my same issue, i've tried lots of recovery but none seems to work
[Android General] elfigus:
Ok finally I was able to do it!!

for the Pixi 4 4034x 2AAL version you need to use the stock recovery of the 2xALRUA

MEGA

MEGA provides free cloud storage with convenient and powerful always-on privacy. Claim your free 20GB now

mega.nz

flash it with SP flash tool but not the preloader and your smartphone will be fine.

Then, in order to get a TWRP recovery you need to use this simple tool and in 30 sec with the stock recovery of the 2xALRUA you will be able to create the custom recovery

[Android General] silverf1sh:
Hi elfigus,

Glad you managed to get your problem sorted out. I also have a pixi 4, which is flashed with 4034X-2AALRUA, but have been looking for 4034X-2AALGBA-1 for a very long time to return my phone to original stock. If there is any chance that you could send me a copy of the backup you say you have for this firmware, i would be eternally greatful.

I look forward to your reply,

Many thank's,

silverf1sh.

Hello, I'll upload the Stock ROM that has something to do with XA AX in the name ^^ So maybe you will be able to solve your problem!

Hello people just I let you know that you can unbrick your phone or alcatel mobile. Follow my Steps.

WARNING ONLY WHO HAVE COMPUTER AND SKILLED USING ANY KIND FLASH TOOL!!!

Step 1 go to chrome search sp flash tool any kind version

Step 2 make sure you have downloaded drivers and firmware your phone

Step 3 install sp flash tool

Step 4 launch sp flash tool

Step 5 you're opened sp flash tool you need to put scatter text from your downloaded firmware stock rom

Step 6 find your USB cable

Step 7 click flash it will say waiting for device.

Step 8 first grab your phone hold power, volume up + and volume down - then put charger in phone and flash.

That's how to unbrick your phone.

Tell me more about information.

Tell me if this method works or not. Just comment below I will resolve your problems.!

No

Hey I have an Alcatel Pixi 4 6 3G Model version 8050D I think its bricked because I tried to install stock rom but when I finish and when I turn on its appear all screen white and never goes from there...and when I flashed another stock rom that I download in other website the screen appear all red

Do you guys have any suggestions? Please??
[Android General] parrots_:
Could you send photos of the issue? Additionally, just to make sure, could you send me what slots are filled in in SPFT (assuming you used it).

You could try Alcatel's Mobile Upgrade Tool, or if all else fails, try and identify the test points to enter BROM.
[Android General] Msi_laptop:
okay

Here just white screen
[Android General] parrots_:
Do you still get detection on your computer?
[Android General] Msi_laptop:
yes!

i was gonna flash the twrp for 8050D then i bricked my phone at display was normal then i was try to flash with sp flash tool then that screen is white i tried nothing man

i still get connection usb in my computer i have driver installed too
[Android General] parrots_:
Preloader is still alive, so you might still have a chance at fixing it.

Have you tried removing the battery and plugging it in? This should give you USB detection.
[Android General] Msi_laptop:
no will try to open back panel .
[Android General] parrots_:
The battery should be removable by default, back cover too.
[Android General] Msi_laptop:
the phone is still alive this point but its hard to open back panel so wait

a im gonna send pic back open so
[Android General] parrots_:
If it's not removable easily, as in no support for just taking it off with your fingers, probably not a great idea. You can still flash in SPFT, correct?
[Android General] Msi_laptop:
okay i opened i diconneted the battery i will try sp flash again

nope still didnt work man screen is white

Good luck man, hopefully it works. If not, likelihood is flashing via BROM would be your only option.

[Android General] groovity:
[MENTION=5515628]kirito9[/MENTION]

OK so I went through installing cm one more time, this time without Gapps.

· After a second install search now seems to work!

· However I cannot access storage of the phone over USB at all! (SD and Internal)

· SD storage does not work under CM OS

· Wifi networks are shown but unable to connect to. (it connects than turns to "saved" but will never really connect. Also, low reception but this is not true I have a perfect signal 1m away from my wifi base station).

· none of the sim card slots are working (sims are not recognized as placed in either of the two slots)

so there is 0 connectivity with your port, which renders the device of course useless and I will have to go back to stock again :(

I was willing to give it a try if I got sim to work.

this is the pixi 4(5) 3g 5010D I am talking about!

right i think i found the error in twrp while i can flash/ backup and restore... i dont know wo is the error....

i think modifiy boot.img for cm13 can do you try cm12 before cm13 its a same version / kernel or????

Different kernel version, your device came with MM so downgrading to LP is not possible.

Boots to OS.

And there's no 'boot to bootloader' in the recovery. I've also tried to use SPFT to readback boot.img and recovery.img and system.img. But I'm unsure if I got the files correctly.

This is for the Pixi 4 (7).
