Doing this and installed some apps to save battery and control my cpu, its enough for me. Maybe i will try the custom rom you mentioned. Thats all and bye bye..

Also for everyone looking for the Micro SD slot, it is by the volume buttons. You pull up the little flap and insert it in, just like the sims card!! :)

I found that LeWa OS is officially supported on TCL Idol X and the feedback of it is good, possibly even better than Alcatel's stock ROM. I havent tried the ROM yet but it is beautiful(screenshots). Also if you haven't notice the Idol X+ which is launched this month in China shipped with LeWa OS preinstalled. the site is in Chinese so maybe you can google translate but dont worry i can confirm that the ROM has English language packed

              Hi. I want to discuss about rooting this phone. I rooted my phone using kingoapp.com. the root is easy and the apk is good with supersu installed after update. One big problem though, never ever install xposed installer apk because phone will never wake up past the start up screen. I install greenify donation, install this apk to get the greenify donation going, reboot the phone. Alas, huge mistake. Cant even go into android reboot mode using power+volume up button. My solution is using alcatel upgrade tool to reset the phone. This happened to me twice to find out the culprit..

I would recommend it if you are having the camera problem like the others have. But if you are already on the latest firmware I don't think you can do the reinstall firmware thing using the tool. (Anyone please point me out if i'm wrong, also Can anyone who have used the Mobile Upgrade Tool by Alcatel tell me that are the apps i.e Gameloft games, AVG, Shazam, ...still remain/included or not? Thanks ).
