Q8+ TV quad SIM cellphone password

I planned to copy the instruction leaflet of this Chinese mobile phone - then lost it en route to my scanner. Not too smart.

It was written in Chinglish, so not always easy to follow, but at least it gave me some idea what was available. Which I need, knowing little about mobile phones.

Anyone know where I might look for a replacement? Google and DuckDuckGo know of quantity resellers of the model, but I don't want to buy ten or a hundred, just use the one I've got.

I would google for the model and visit large sites like alibaba.com. You may have more luck asking there for a manual, because they have (moderately) more experience communicating in English.

Loads of customers feel Chinese sellers do not provide support, but in many cases this is because the sellers cannot decipher English. The company I work with has over 15 years of experience with Chinese manufacturers and we still spend huge time communicating with them. It is sometimes hilarious noticing how they read in a different way than we write. But they usually are very patient and willing, though.

Good luck!

Thank you; I'll try that.

At first I had a big problem: the phone had been unused for months, and I couldn't remember the password, even after allowing the problem to rattle around in my head for several weeks. But part way through posting my question, four digits suddenly came to mind, I tried them, and it worked. (I've always had the sort of inconsistent memory which will fail to tell me that the date I'm trying to remember is 1066, or 1776, then effortlessly provide the answer a few hours or days later). The 'manual' would still be helpful, though.

'Japanese bicycle require great peace of mind for assembly' was one often-quoted example of the difficulties in translating Oriental languages.

Indeed they are.
