          Anonymous, 14 Aug 2016I don't recommend it. My Micro SD is now shown as corrupted... moreI think SD failure may not be 6.x Android upgrade related - the same happened to me on my stock 5.0.2 Android - 16GB card after 9 months of using the phone died and landed in thrash (couldn't format it on PC etc). New 32GB sits there since 3-4 months, as far OK. I'd try MM if it is ever released officially for the phone (as I have other small odds with my phone every now and again (but not when I go to service to show them)), but I'm not that desperate to go for unofficial MM compilation, so as far still on stock Android.

            I've recently noticed there is album cover issue with Mix music app... ...before that every album cover was shown properly but now only couple of album covers are shown and majority are all empty. I wonder why this happened?!? I'm still on 5.0.2 so i hope that when/if 6.0.1 shows up finally, this album cover issue will be gone. But have you guys any idea what's causing this issue and is there a easy fix?

                      Idol 3 (4.7) model 6039y here and no MM yet (if ever!) and i contacted Alcatel about what is going on with the update... let's see what nonsense they will say._. I have pretty much given up, no MM for 6039y, probably ever. Last Alcatel phone for sure...

                        The request on facebook at Alcatel is: Will the idol 3.4,7 code 6039y-2BALWE7 be updated towards android 6.0? I ask the question because that made more than 50 days that the update towards android 6.0 was deployed in France. that starts to make long since the deployment in North America who started in June.

                        Their answer in MP facebook is:
                        Hello Valérian, As I have told you for 50 days, I do not have unfortunately an answer to your question. I cannot either help you because it is not me which manages the updates and when I get information near my superiors, I do not have more information to give you…

                          After up grade do not even like the phone can not answer incoming calls . Have to call them back. My wife also has one and it is the same way. Also the SD card is impossible to access
                          ruined a good phone with this upgrade . Now looking for a phone to replace it .

                              Similar issues. Corrupt sd card, seemed to remove some aps altogether etc. Is it possible to reverse the upgrade ?

                                AnonD-570918, 11 Aug 20165.0.2I don't recommend it. My Micro SD is now shown as corrupted, refuses to be formatted, cannot be used as movable storage, and half the time it isn't recognized at all. My phone has also spontaneously turned itself off, and when I try to restart it, it won't turn on unless I open the slot for the sim card. It's VERY frustrating and I don't know what I'm going to do.
