just got this phone like three days ago. after setting up the volume via engineering mode, everything was clear and crisp. even though this is just a hand me down phone from my older brother i say it does perform well.

    solution on how to get greater volume is allready explained in the previous posts. Now, about upgradeing the opera:
    1) on your alcatel ot 806, go to m.opera.com, using the preinstalled opera browser
    2)choose "other download options"
    3)choose link "options for opera mini (number of the current version)", select code - signing certificate
    4) choose verising
    5) and finaly download the current version and enjoy
    video plays nicely, but you should have at least 2 bars of signal, I've got opera mini 6 and it's way nicer than bolt =)just love this phone
    ps. sorry if my English is somewhat broken, I'm not a native speaker =)

        Bought this phone on 2April,2011 in India at Rs. 4500/-

        Pros:
        a) WiFi connects with no hassles & works very fast. No connectivity drops.
        b) Battery is superb. With WiFi on and continuous heavy browsing and calling, it lasted for about 34 hours.
        c) Most of your favourite apps are already installed, like Facebook and Twitter.
        d) Opera Mini gets the job done, but since it is not upgradable, it lacks what other browsers like BOLT are offering.
        e) The Alcatel OT-806D is a dual sim model, where both sims remain in active state.
        f) Display is clear and bright. There are brightness settings for custom adjustment.
        g) Music player & radio are good.
        h) Call quality is very good.
        i) The UI is very responsive.

        Cons:
        a) Since the touchscreen is resistive, its not very responsive, but definitely better than the competition in this range.
        b) Camera quality is not good. Grains appear in even modest lighting conditions.
        c) Video player downloads and plays video from Alcatel portal only. Also, I could not get the streaming to work. Every time I tried streaming urls, it said 'Connection Error'. I guess I may have to talk to my service provider about this.

        So, if you want to get a phone with almost all the features, get yourself one of these today.

        Similar Phones:
        a) Nokia Touch and Type (Rs. 8000/-)
        b) Samsung Chat 335 (Rs. 5600/-)
        c) LG Cookie WiFi (Rs. 4500/-)

        * All prices are approximates.
