after 4yrs, my HTC Surround is frozen after I turned it off, will not go homepage. Can my Text msgs be transfer to a new HTC T8788 7 Surround?

No, Text Messages that were already received will not be able to transfer to another phone. Enjoy your New Phone & Sorry about what happened to the Old Phone. 4 years is a long time

The HTC T87887 is a very bad phone I couldn't use this anymore just for one month

Yes...mine is Safelink service. You just gotta call them from another phone and they will tell you what changes to make on the phone and transfer your current balance of minutes over to this new phone. Also, make sure they have the text message function programmed properly on the new phone. When I first changed, it was charging me for texts when it shouldn't have because the proper changes weren't made when I first switched everything over.

I don't know if Jitterbug will port over the old number or not. I know that no other carrier can do anything with Jitterbug phones.

Sorry, I can't help you. The phone stopped working and I went ahead and upgraded w/ Verizon. I 'recycled' the phone at Verizon about 4 months ago.

If you have Sprint service I will encourage you to take it to a Sprint store so that it can be set up properly and all your data from the old phone can be transfered. My son loves the phone. Good luck!!!

I have not been able to get my HTC ONE M8 to do anything other than stream music over Bluetooth and through the front aux Jack. Oh, and answer calls through the Bluetooth. As for apps such as maps, no go thus far. Another problem I've had is getting the stereo to accept the update from a jump drive. I even got our company IT guy to try it for me with no success. I think this stereo would be awesome if I had a junkie iPhone or it was more compatible with android phones. Hope this helps! What I haven't tried is the HTC charging cable connected to the usb input & connecting it to my phone. I will try it and update this comment soon. #update. Tried through the usb port and still nothing. I have not been able to get my HTC ONE M8 to do anything other than stream music over Bluetooth and through the front aux Jack.

The T-Mobile reps were unable to help me - exact same issue. So I switched to a Verizon prep-paid plan at $45 unltd talk and unltd text and 500MB data. You can buy extra data on your account in increments of 1GB for $10 and they last 90 days. This worked and no issues with sending texts now.

The guy I sold mine to asked me to call Sprint and ensure that he could get it activated. The rep mentioned being able to see account history. I hated this phone, btw. Never got 4G working on it and several systems were broken. S5 is supposedly better. I went back to LG and have no problems anymore.

Order a new set of phones !! The technology has improved - actually was already improved before your phones left the vendor location. Phones are so inexpensive now, it's not important to waste your time wondering why the set you have doesn't work any more. Believe !! and have a Happy, Stress-free New Year...........

you should have turned off updates for the phone the brand was too old to take the new android apps I brought mine a little before you also and it no longer works just gone dead not charging ,,,,sometimes it charges and when it updates the apps it cuts out ......I just flung it against the wall and smashed it. If you are buying HTC its a good brand, but don't buy their old phones and if you buy them don't update them. I used to really like the phone ....smh

No. You have to switch over the home button and several other parts from the original phone.

Take out the battery and re-install it again. It works for me when my phone freezes. Lmk

Yes, that is what I did with this phone. My son had another older model LG that was acting up and rather than buying or getting new phone for free from Verizon and committing to another 2 year contract, I simply bought this LG and replaced his old LG. With Verizon, they allow you to switch phones easily from home without any service charge or penalties. You can visit Verizon's website and they have instructions on switching phones along with transferring your address book over to the new phone. As for the pictures, you'll have to buy an SD card to transfer the memory from your old old phone to the new phone. Good luck.
