Read this from another site (was about updating to ICS) but I did the following and it worked for me.
Obviously have a Stock Xoom Wifi that is on ICS
1: Go into Settings --> Apps --> All
2: Scroll down to and select "Google Services Framework"
3: Click on Force Stop (let it stop) and then click on Clear Data
4: Hit your back arrow and go to About Tablet --> System Updates (should say it last checked in 1969) and hit Check for Updates
5: Let it download and install

I saw this and thought I'd give it a try - walked into the other room to grab my Xoom, hit the button to wake it up and already had the notification of a system update to 4.1.1 on the screen. Wahoo :]

Yeah - Mine says 1970 too... Perhaps this is why we're still waiting to pull the OTA update?

worked like a charm. And I actually can use the answering function of the voice search now. My GNex runs with german language while I left my Xoom on US english (imported from the US).
Just keep hitting update.
Repeat all the steps each time.
I actually cleared cache and rebooted after the 4th time and update was avail when it booted.

Mine also showed 1970, I hit check for update and there it was. For some, they have repeated the process up to 7 times before it would give them the OTA. Best of luck.
I had better luck using the stock launcher. I had to disable Apex.

Keep in mind that this trick completely breaks C2DM push notifications on your device...so if you use an app like Android Lost (or almost any other app that lets you wipe your device remotely should it be lost or stolen) or if you get notifications from apps like Facebook, Foursquare, GetGlue, IMDb, Twitter, Instagram, or any other app that uses C2DM push notifications, you will no longer receive any notifications from those apps until you clear data for each individual app and set it up again from scratch.
Will this work on Galaxy S3 i9300 (Unbranded) UK?

I'll keep it short for now and update this topic start as needed.
Here you can find instructions on downloading & installing a preliminary version of Cyanogenmod 10 for Alcatel OT-995.
I'm fairly happy with the progress I've made recently, though it should not be considered stable. Some features are known to be broken, for others it's your job to point out missing functionality.

Changelog
Issue tracker
Source code
Please read the installation instructions carefully
Most basic device functionality should be working. A list of known issues (incomplete):
Video mode camera overlay may bug; workaround: launch regular camera, switch to video
Occasional artifcats on window transitions
Hardware video decoding is unavailable, use MX Player or VLC instead.
Not implemented: HDMI out, FM radio
The custpack partition is used to store /system/app, that's why a separate CWM images is required to install CM10 releases. This also means it's backup/restore functionality is currently broken. Advanced backup might allow you to just backup/restore /data though.
You may mention any broken functionality here, but I prefer receiving an issue report here, as that allows me to keep track of things more easily.
Do check whether your specific issue has already been reported, and try to be as detailed as possible.
You should be comfortable flashing/recovering your device - if not, this might not be for you yet - wait until we smoothen things out
Bring on the feedback. I'm sure I missed something in the guides or release.
Disclaimer: I'm still working on a best-effort basis, every now and then my spare time is severely limited..
Nice - nice indeed.
many thanks for taking time and developing for ot 995.
it was just today that i had installed ics and now this??? my lucky day...
anyway, will help you in reporting bugs.... keep rocking.....
extra great news ! Iuss, i'm downloading it right now and flashing it Thank you very much for this release (even though is preliminary)
EDIT: I flashed it. Booting was quick. I was setting the phone and i restarted the phone.
So at first touch everything looks nice
- Scrolling is a bit strange (is scroll downward the screen goes up).
- The phone is charging and the LED is not lit.
- Camera works (photos, video, and panorama with some greenish overlay).
- Data not working. Confirmed.
- Wifi works
Tnx again iuss!
Thanks for the hard work, I'm sure this will be WAY better than Alcatel's ICS release. Just love me some jellybeans :silly:
Just booting it up now. Nice boot logo, I haven't seen that one before. Yours?
Yes, thanks very very much!

Very nice indeed.
Testing it right now
First of all. Fantastic job! Well done! I tested the rom.
My experience was
# My camera and video worked pretty good. It took pictures and video was working. Maybe a little problem with the focus on Video. And some greenish with the transition between taken picture and camera.
# Wifi, Phone works
# No Data/3G
# Led Backlight keys dosen't work when u wake the phone up from sleep. But if u change the light settings the Keys lights up, and works.
# Multi touch works good and responsive.
Thanks alot an keep up the good work!
It seems very nice, but I'm confused because I was asked to unlock my sim again which was done when I bought it months ago, and it didn't even work with that code. What could be the cause, and would it work if I went back to ICS?

You should adjust the settings for your screen brightness. What i did was that I used the quick settings widget. There's an option for brightness click that one, and the backlight keys should light up.
Awesome start...
Iuss, CM10 is great. It has a few quirks, but so far I am loving it.
I have run into one issue, I can't create a Google account. I ran recovery, booted CM10, and went to create my Google account under System settings > Accounts and there is no option for Google, just Corporate and Email. Am I missing something?
I was able to manually download Titanium and restore many of my apps, but several won't load. That's too be expected though. But being able to create a Google account is pretty important to me.
If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

Did you flash gapps? If not do that,then see if you're still not able to start your account. I flashed it before I booted for the first time and not only did I get prompted to start/login to an account, most of my apps were reinstalled.

tumaini418, yes, I did (I followed iuss' instructions including the download links). Another odd thing that has happened is I have lost the ability to access SD Card through USB.
Fortunately I backed ICS before setting CM10, so I was able to Recover back to ICS, and I suddenly have access to my SD Card again. I'm going to stay with ICS for tomorrow as I must have a working phone, but I'll try ICS again later this weekend.
Could you say me if there is a CM9 build which should be totally functional?! It help me to wait CM10!

There is a Alcatel official ICS rom that iuss fixed so that anyone with this phone can use, but no CM9.

That was supposed to work, seems I had my brightness control set to 'half' (or whatever it is) - then it does work. Will replace the proprietary liblights - it appears to be broken and/or depend on framework hacks.

As other said, you either forgot to flash gapps, or used the wrong CWM image when flashing.

Previous releases (CM9 included) had less functionality.
iuss concerning the phone asking for a sim pin. I got the same thing when switching from airplane mode. It's a popup. I tried to enter a pin I used in the screen lock before, but of course that wasn't it. It's very confusing because my sim has never had a pin to unlock it.

Well, one thing this reminds me of is a more polished rom'd phone. Even with a Nexus 6 the software had some bugs just because software got pushed out so fast.
I played around and for sure it's the launcher, if you install Nova launcher the home button can be configured to work as you describe. The only thing about THAT is no swipe to open google now (which I usually configure to be double tap on the background). Though I'm sticking with the default Launcher3 for now.

Have you checked out the Nova Google Companion app? It adds the ability to swipe from the left to access Google now while using Nova Launcher.

^^This - I have this configured in Nova now and it works great.
Try a factory reset without installing any apps during setup. Try the blank slate route. It may be an app that isn't playing well with the last update. If it doesn't work you can always reset and install you apps from backup.
I ended up doing nova with the google companion.
I did not try to reset again to see if it was an app I installed (I do not have many). It has to be a bug with the launcher. What they probably should do is break out the launcher as a separate app for them to be able to update as an app instead of requiring a system update.
With that done that should be it, now that the camera and whitelist app are depreciated.
Same issue here. I've tried to factory reset but it hasn't worked for me. I don't feel like rooting the phone either to fix something that a phone that costs $700 should get correct out of the box...
Sent from my PH-1 using Tapatalk
You don't have to root it to use Nova, nor do you have to root do to the companion to get the now integration. All you have to do is sideload the now companion... not sure about how updates work though.
Anyway, at some point this was fixed in the default launcher. I got a RMA phone due to the speaker grill issue, and noticed it worked. Then went back and tried it on my original phone and it was good there too.
Updated to Pie. The split screen option is not in the menu no matter what app I try it with. I've checked every place I could think of in Good Lock, Nova Launcher & Samsung settings & can't find anything that would be preventing it. I even tried under Samsung Launcher & had the same result. If anyone has any ideas, please share.

I tried a few things but couldn't replicate what you are experiencing. Are you running Good Lock? I know it has a feature that modifies multi window, but I don't know if it would cause the issue you have.
Did you take the ota directly from the carrier? Or did you flash the new pie update? Mine came from the carrier last Thursday. Today, I backed up everything and did a factory reset and it feels like it's running smoother. Maybe that could fix your issue.
Turns out it was a bug in Good Lock's Multistar. They pushed an update last night that fixed the problem for me. Thanks to all for trying to help.

I am from the Philippines using an unlocked T Mobile V60. After reading this post, I checked the update in settings and saw this too. I am not sure I want to press the button though. I'll wait for braver souls to try it first I guess.
I like it so far. Even snappier. Mic and camera controls are nice.

I just found the problem: I had all animations to 0 in developer options. They need to be on at least .5 for share and edit of screenshots.
I was unable to type using any keyboard when using Naver Whale browser. Other browsers worked fine though. I had to manually update Naver Whale browser to enable typing again. This only happened after upgrading to 12.
Hi,
i have a t-mobile v60. i checked the system update page and i can see it but the download will not work. can anyone please send me the link to download the update so i can manually flash my phone?
I just got bought a used v60 TMobile variant and I'm trying to get it unlocked for my carrier here in Canada....I tried one site and they were unable to provide an unlock code (possibly the original owner didn't pay their bill). The IMEI comes up clean here when I ran it but I may be forced to have a remote unlock from what appears to be a reputable company online. They want to flash the v600vm kdz to unlock it.
It has android 12 update ready to download but I held off because
1. I don't know if it will affect being able to get it unlocked or flash the other variant firmware
2. I wanted to wait to see if there are issues with android 12 on it.
But I'm wondering if it's at all possible the android 12 firmware is no longer locked?
Any suggestions for my particular situation?
Has anyone else had camera problems since the android 12 update. The camera settings menu has dissapeared.
Anyone get display not registering movements/taps?
I thought that this was an issue with the drawing over other apps functionality that A12 has been cracking down on (Tasker, Pixel Filter, etc.), but even disabling/removing the aforementioned apps, this still happens intermittently, which renders that phone useless randomly. No matter how many times I lock/try to unlock the phone (via fingerprint), the screen just does not register taps/swipes...
And yes, this happened from A11-A12 upgrade, and is still present after doing a factory reset on A12.
I did a FDR and I still have several bugs.

Can you be more specific? Are you in the photo or video mode for example? Have you tried deleting the cache (and/or data) of the camera app, and trying again?
EDIT: Are you using battery saver mode perhaps? I know when you are using extreme battery saver (or whatever it's called), camera app becomes real basic, and there is no settings menu.

Smart Lock notification was stuck in the settings menu, Bluetooth initial connection bug, when a folder is created to group apps and you click the plus to add + select the apps you want and click done, they are not added. These are the initial ones I've noticed. I've had a few times where I went to go back to a certain screen and it studders. Google Map when it's small cause you have to take a call or go to something else and try to click the square box won't maximize, you have to go to the app icon and select it. I do run Google bets apps. These apps didn't give me issues prior to update though.
