Update 09/19/20: I have made a thread with custom ROMs and instructions how to install them, located here Update 09/09/22: @neutronscott Who has done the important work to hack this phone has a wiki with all the important information about this phone. His work can be found HERE , Update 09/01/22: Thanks to @neutronscott we now have the ability to install apps! Original Post: Does anyone have this phone? It looks different than the Alcatel My Flip 2 and the TCL My Flip2. According to Tracfones website it runs Android 11 and has more storage and ram than the My Flip. Is it the same thing or actually a new phone? Tips about this phone: Enable ADB: *#*#DEBUG#*#* ( *#*#33284#*#* ) Disable Apps with adb: Browser: adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 org.chromium.chrome Texting: adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.android.mms Secret Codes: Launcher list all apps: *#*#217703#*#* Barometer Calibration: *#*#1013#*#* Carrier Choose: *#*#22384#*#* Testing Settings *#*#73884647#*#* Enable APN editing: *#*#9663223#*#*

Very interesting. Doesn't look like Kaios, so I am assuming it's android. There is only a picture of the homescreen I not sure. I may get it, amazon $20 https://www.amazon.com/TracFone-Flip-Prepaid-Phone-Locked/dp/B09X7F2GCG I'm just scared it'll be super slow b/c it's alcatel

Biden2020prez Same thoughts. Although the Alcatel flip V which was Android for Verizon was significantly better than the KaiOs devices with the same hardware.

This may be a stupid question, but how can it be Alcatel and TCL?

I am very tempted to buy it... Im assuming I'll buy one. For the record, out of stock on tracfone, in stock on Amazon, and also in stock on total wireless for more expensive

I bought one. Will post back once I receive it and go through it...

I wonder if it would have this issue appsphoarflip (maybe someone can teach me how to properly quote)

Biden2020prez I dont think so. Its supposed to be running an AOSP Android 11 not Android Go.

darth From that post I can't tell what @appsphoarflip said Either: The schok is android 11 go, and all android 11 doesn't include the necessary apis. Or: The schok is android 11 go, and android 11 go doesn't include etc.

Alcatel TCL Flip 2 (T408DL)

Biden2020prez looks like they mixed up the descriptions of the TCL Flip2 with the TCL MyFlip.

Techgen

Biden2020prez Yeah I saw that. I was hoping they just don't know what they're talking about.

After doing fastboot flash boot neutron.img and then fastboot reboot and then using ##217703## to bring up list of apps, I don't see magisk in the list of apps.

Hi1

roize1 you just have to reboot your phone and you'll find it

roize1

Hi1 Thanks, I was able to find it. For the virtual mouse, I put adb settings put system keyboard_pointer_enable 1 into cmd but it only returns the list of adb commands.

roize1

lgexalter1 it worked but the mouse only shows up after I put that command into cmd. After I leave an application, mouse is gone and I have to type the command again when I'm in new app and the mouse shows up again. Is it supposed to work like that or is there a way to toggle it on and off on the phone?

Hi1

roize1 y don't you use [Login to see the link]`s mouse? it works great! you can find it [Login to see the link]

darth

Has anyone here gotten Android Auto to work successfully on this phone?

(Yes I know it needs play services and to be systemized with the appropriate permissions and dependences. I tried that all with GApps and MicroG and couldn't get it working...)
If anyone has any ideas or solutions fell free to reach out to me directly at [Login to see the link]

Hi,
Does anyone have an alternative t9 keyboard for the TCL FLIP 2?

williammredman

When trying to install a module through magisk, I get "invalid Uri" I know my zips aren't corrupted, so what am I doing wrong?

darth

williammredman Make sure you rebooted when you first launch magisk and it prompts to reboot to install fully. Then install modules through adb root shell magisk --install-module /path/to/module

williammredman

darth Fixed it, I thought modules could be installed from the computer, but you need them on your phone's storage.
