Saxo email me on un112@msn.com about your problem.
The software has some conflicts with microsofts licensing but do not worry, it is 100% safe to use.

You are in risk the cellphone WONT read a 4gb microSD, 2gb will read
Putting a 2gb (beyond said) card, will slow your cellphone's speed, and when accessing the Card's data, it will be really slow (compared to the recomended 1gb card)
Alcatel ISNT lying, they are just suggesting you, a card that will accept the cellphone (2gb cards are in risk they wont be read by cellphone, or work too slow in it)

What's the "real" maximum memory card capacity for this model?
I know this is a repeated question, but please read on...
I've 1GB memory card, and I was told that this is the maximum this model can hold. But, after reading other users' comments about installing 2GB cards, I decided to contact Alcatel.
They said, It's 1GB. I told them; but others have 2GB, and I gave them a link to this site, which states that 2GB memory cards are working fine with this model. They replied; The maximum "official" memory card is "still" 1GB.
My questions are:
- If 1GB is the maximum, and 2GB is working fine, does this mean I can install cards beyond the maximum capacity, say, 4GB?
- If I installed a memory card beyond the maximum capacity, do I risk corrupting/losing data? Slowing down/hanging my device?
- If 1GB isn't the maximum, why Alcatel is lying about it?

abo_3mod, just check the menu and you will found out that there is option for the phone to ring through its speaker and not through headset when sombebody is calling. Just check the menu or read the manual. About the picture quality, this is still best when we talk about VGA. Remember that this phone has vga camera but anyway, you can edit the picture you have taken using picture editor. There are lots of free editor on the web.

I love Alcatel and i bought this phone but this wat i did not like in it, frist of all
- voice recorder so poor when u playback wat u recored u only hear ur voice clear but if any one speak around u u can hardly hear them.
- same when u use video recorder pules if u use the zoom key's u can hear ur strokes on the keys so loud when u palyback wat u recorded and it is so annoying.
- poor quality pic that taken by phone when i put it on my pc.
- while u play music throw phone speaker and closed the cover the sound get low

i think Alcatel should really announce their new models like other manufacturers do ,, so that the users will know what is coming and decide which phone to wait for to buy
