I just bought an Alcatel OT-983 and I would like to root and unlock it.
Any ideas about how could I do one of these?
Go here for root http://error-soft.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=2923
thanks theoneofgod. got the phone rooted....any chance of an unlock to other networks?
Thanks for root, is there a custom recovery to allow nandroid backup ?
go to here unlockroot.com

I managed to unlock it for free using the O2 one month pay monthly trick. I received the unlock code in 48 hours.
got the root and the unlock, have now posted here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35243450&postcount=1 and uploaded the recovery.img hoping someone would be kind enough to create a CWM for the OT0983.
cheers...

I think I bricked my alcatel ot 983 by installing something, seriously I didn't know what I was doing, I am so dumb, this is my first cheap android phone.
I found some file called Andread_32_i2e on google downloaded from 4shareddotcom and flashed my phone, and the phone now hangs in boot logo the green android logo
help me, I didn't make any back up

what do you mean unlock? i meant to unlock it to use in other network
i'm not a coder, so i'm not sure what is on your thread, ie. no unlocking info

Some kind person over at 'hotukdeals' did me a favour and got me the SIM unlock code from the carrier. Root was easy enough, unfotunately not much support for this device, without a CWM recovery, or a stock rom, Iam reluctant to do any further changes.
There is an official application called "Alcatel One Touch Upgrade NB v1.02" that may be able to restore people's broken phones to their default brand new state: http://www.mirrorcreator.com/files/E3K4W5EI/one-touch-upgrade-nb-1-0-3-setup-medoclite.exe_links
The .exe name says v1.03 so does their website but it is actually v1.02. This may help these of you who have messed up your phones.
my bricked phone keeps restarting so I couldn't use alcatel one touch upgrade
thanks mate but still my problem is not solved
the thing is alcatel onetouch upgrade tells me turn my phone off and connect to pc via usb cable but the problem is as soon as i connect my phone via usb the phone turn on, so alcatel one touch upgrade fails at 65% download from the server
I can get my phone in to recovery mode but I think I will need the rom, i dont know
if someone bought a new phone of this model and made a rom backup and if you can post that it will be really nice
need the system.img for this phone
i have lost my system.img and i need it, please send it
thanks
if you guys could give me detailed instructions as to how i can extract the system.img file i might be able to help you. I have a stock rooted phone btw, i've uninstalled a few applications i didn't want and move some to sd using link2sd i think, not sure if that matters or not. My phone is currently not unlocked to all networks but will be within the next 2 weeks.

Hello everybody...... I own an HTC desire 210. Asia version with Mediatek MT6572M processor. I flashed a wrong CWM in to it and the basedband version and Imei got corrupted . The phone cant recognize Sim cards now. I tried a lot of things to fix it like Engineering mode, imei.exe technique by replacing NVRAM files, MTK Tools imei writing but nothing is working till now and to use SN writer the CDC drivers are not getting installed in to my computer. Any one with this device please provide me a flashable ROM either for CWM or Flashtool. I dont know, may be it can fix the issue or if you know any other method to tackle it please let me know. Unfortunately I have no back up for this ROM with me.
Rom back up needed
Anybody with this phone please help by uploading the ROM back up for cwm. I am surprised because more than 50 people have visited this thread but no one is replying. any one please help me.

I'll soon upload it, I just don't get the time. Also, there are many useless apps in the Stock ROM, which make the whole backup quite (well very) large in size.
can any one suggest which version of cwm is suitable for htc desire 210.............n where can i get a custom rom for it.
GOOD DAY DEVS.
