well i can't say for sure because i'v never used or even as much as see the gionee m3. But i can tell you the Alcatel is an Amazing phone with it's major downside being battery ish.
Yeah, the battery is not bad if you don't use the Internet much..
I can't go back to using the android kitkat.... that's like living in 2014.. even if you root and install a custom rom you'll still face hardware compatibility issues.. well, in terms of hardware/software minus battery life, the popstar beats the m3 by far.. The Alcatel popstar wasn't really developed for the Nigerian market (countries with low power supply) that's why you don't see the 3-5k mah battery lol... the 2k mah battery is pretty good though with power saving mode...

have you actually tried sending the command using the default engr.mode?

Nah
Have u?
Cos me isn't expecting any change

And there is nuffn like "default engr mode", all phones have one engr mode, apps are just short cuts used to access em

So as I asked, have u?

lol... I know, but you're wrong, there's something like a
default.engr mode since sending the AT command seems to work more than using an application... I don't have need for changing my imei now, when i do I'll notify you...

what the hell. Whats a nigga suppose to do with a phone with such a battery.
Ya know a smartphone is all 'bout screen and battery. Not ideal to take a screen that wont 'play' music more than 2 hours. But some say it last up to 4hrs on everyday use

Re: Alcatel One Touch Pop Star Discussion Thread by Nobody: 6:48am On Jan 27, 2016
I had a vodafone that the battery percentage drops every minute no matter how the phone was used, which is xtremely bad.
I want to buy the alcatel but i never want to use a phone like the vodafone again.
If it can last like tecno m3 then its ok for me. I need battery comparism with tecno m3. guys
Re: Alcatel One Touch Pop Star Discussion Thread by Nobody: 7:12am On Jan 27, 2016
And also clear me of this. Does this phone drain power from 86% to 2% in 1hour music play as someone posted, thats like draining from full charge to 0% on heavy use in 1hour. If so im definitely not buying it. Awaiting your reply niggas.

wtf? don't buy this device.... it's a 2k mah battery not a bad battery, if you're someone who uses your device heavily for one hour from 100% you'll be left with about 70 to 60%. I have constant power supply so i haven't noticed anything with my battery.. lol..
