Seems a lot of people have some confusion with this, and rightfully so, the naming scheme is downright contorted. I will try to put together whatever information I can, if someone can help, that would be great.

Comprehensive list of the different Alcatel TCL Models and their differences.
Flippy List of TCL Flip models running Android AOSP:
- TCL Classic 4058C, Sold on TCL
- TCL Classic (4058C), From Cricket
- TCL Classic (4058R), From AT&T
- TCL Flip Go (4058L), From UScellular

- TCL Flip (4058E), Canadian Version
- Alcatel TCL Flip 2 (t408dl), From Tracfone
- Alcatel TCL Flip 2 (t408dg), From Family Mobile
Hardware differences:
- As far as I know there are 3 colors: Black/Grey (Most models), and Blue (4058W).
- Some Models have the Emergency dial button on the outside (t408dl, 4058E?) and some don't (4058L, 4058C?, 4058R?)
Software differences:
- Installed apps: some include weather, some have carrier specific apps.
- Partition layout see chart:

darth Well I was going to get it from all your posts since you seem to be the expert in this, but you did a fantastic job here. Thanks. May actually save you time not needing to answer so many questions 😉
Flippy Its now your job to find and list all the KaiOS TCL's 😉. Is there any other specific info you think I should post?
Any info that I put up with a ? means that it seems that way to me but I havent confirmed it.
darth KaiOS hopefully shouldn't be of too much interest here, when you can get a perfectly, not as terrible OS on the ones you listed. (and actually filter it now, thanks) Maybe you can add which is the ones that are compatible with your filter.
darth Do neutron.img and your roms work on models other than the t408dl?
FliphoneBochur Yes. There have been some connectivity issues when my Roms were put on some of the other models though.
darth What do you mean?
lgexalter1 darth What about neutron on other models? Same problem?
Reifam It's not a gaurantee, but probably.
FliphoneBochur To get root with the boot image works fine
FliphoneBochur lgexalter1 I dont fully understood what happens. I put my Rom on the 4058L and it would not work with a TracFone SIM but worked fine with a TripleTel SIM in Israel.
So it does work to some degree on the other models but you may have service issues depending on your carrier and device.
