    AnonD-152926, 06 Jun 2013Hi, I'm thinking of buying this phone but have a question a... moreBoth sim slots support cdma and wcdma. It works well in DK so it should through europe. Its a good phone at the price but it needs to be rooted, have gapps (play store, gmail, google) flashed and personally I would recommend a rom with english language at least. Morelocales / morelocales2 will help a bit if you're non-english on english language. Available from play store.

      Hamilton, 03 Jun 2013Hi, I have this device and it's locked due to many pattern ... morePower on button to start, then hold between vol. up and down. CWM for zte u900 worked for me. Only used it to install TWRP though. My phone was prerooted but preinstalled recovery did not work for me. There are rooting tools for it out there. Be warned, messing with firmware MAY brick the phone, espc when using wrong recovery software. Most MKT 655** cpu, root software and rom probably works but be careful.

        Hi, I'm thinking of buying this phone but have a question about connectivity. I've got dual GSM sims and travel a bit. I don't care about 3g/2g connectivity on both sims, I need the phone for voice & sms messaging. I'm concerned that the 2nd sim slot is CDMA, but the 2g slot says sim 1 & sim 2. Can anyone clarify if this will work for me? Thanks

          Hi, I have this device and it's locked due to many pattern attempts. Someone knows what's the key combination or procedure to start it into the factory restore menu?

                          Got this phone for about 4 months now, and it's pretty good.

                          Built quality is Great, sound is great, performance is okay as all MTK6577 phones with Dualcore 1Ghz.

                          Nice features: radio is usable without earphones (built-in antenna) and it even has an FM transmitter for sending MP3 directly to your Car stereo (this is low powered, so reception needs tweaking at first)

                          Overal a great phone, dualsim, built quality like HTC, featurepack like Samsung.

                          Downside: since this phone is only marketed for China it doesn't have Google (anything) so it needs to get a new ROM. (google A789 rom)

                          Some suppliers can arrange for this when you ask for it and state that you're not from China.

                          You can find this phone on sites like Ebay, Everbuying, Alibaba etc. etc.

                                      I have it around 6 months. It's a good phone for the low price. A little bit slow performance, but enough for average user. A camera without flash, suitable for day-day, low quality photographing. In addition, my phone arrived without Google Play Market, so getting application from it is impossible.
                                      In general it's a good phone.
