Here's Android 6 for those looking for it:
First of all you have to install this Android 4.4: https://youtu.be/YhtLziPe4U4
if you do not install the android 4.4 you will get an error 7 in twrp.. i personally tried
Now TWRP: https://forum.androidbg.com/showthread.php?tid=81273
To get TWRP 3.0.2 you need a scatter file. So download the scatter from the other TWRPs.
Now for an ROM: https://forum.androidbg.com/showthread.php?tid=86641
Enjoy and I tested those on mine. They 100% work.

    Not a good phone in my opinion. Became faulty after a few years. Random reboots, dead for some months, then turns on and so on. It is not worth repairing now.

          Had strange bugs with it, I managed to get it working, then it broke down again. Status at the moment: Broken

              What if a Senior Citizen has never used a cell phone? How do I get instructions from start to finish on how to use this alcatel 2 phone?

                One of the best 2014 phones in this class (6037Y, Idol 2), very stable. Unfortunately, broke my LCD+touch screen, looking for a new one, from Alcatel or Samsung.

                  Mine got a huge dead spot across the screen as soon as the 1 year warranty was up. I had to get an rotation app that allowed me to continue to use it. I'm now at the 24 month of ownership and I can barely hear whenever anyone calls me, and it's also started to randomly malfunction.
                  I've kept this phone in pristine condition and it seems to be failing regardlessly. I don't think I'll be purchasing another alcatel phone at all

                            Still having it. Working like a charm. Soon to be replaced by Hwei P9 lite and goes to the hands of my wife. Dropped many times to ground (floor, cocret, fine sand beach) and showered one time on bad weather. Nothing happened. No scrach on glas just scraches on the back plastic besause of rouhgh dust. Software - Alcatel did a good job on this one.
