Can I set this phone up with Consumer Cellular? Is it a true 3G phone? I thought I read it was 2G only?

Yes, you can. They say the phone must be compatible with AT&T, which this on is. It has Quad band EDGE 850/900/1800/1900MHz and 3G 850/1900 MHz so it will work very well.

Did you call consumer cellular and ask them about options? I used this same phone with them, but the reception was pretty bad. They sent me another SIM card but that did not help. I am in a valley, between a couple of hills so blamed it on that.

Dear friend, Thanks for your inquiry. This phone can just support 2G network: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz. If your sim card meet this condition, you can use this sim card for this phone. Meanwhile, we suggest you can check the link of this phone: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GT68AVU. Which can support Support 3G: WCDMA 850/2100MHz and 2G: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz. Might this phone will meet your expactation. Thanks a lot.

yes it will work with Consumer cellular they have all 3 types of sim cards(standard,micro,and mini).This phone takes standard.With missed calls there is a small green light on the side of the phone that flashes when you miss a call,text,or email.I have a app where the camera flash will also flash it is called vibrate then ring but there are many of them out there.It is a great phone but depending on your service plane you can make your apps only update when connected to wifi so you don't go over on your service plan

I don't think so. It needs to be a GSM network. We are using this phone on consumer cellular (uses att network) with no issues.

Ours were unlocked and we were able to use are using them with Consumer Cellular. We did have to call Consumer Cellular and have it configured since it was not purchased from them but they were very helpful and it was done very quickly.

I use Consumer Cellular, which uses the AT&T; system, so I can't be sure.The problem I had was it was an AT&T; Demo phone meant to be used in an AT&T; store. It appeared to be new, but the phone could not be used as a regular phone with the Demo installed. I found info online that says the Demo cannot be removed, once installed. They are replacing the phone, but I have not received the replacement yet. OrderInstant was very responsive when I called to fix the problem. I hope the replacement works or I will ask for a refund.

I'm not sure, but if you call consumer cellular, they will tell you. I think it's not because mine is not a smart phone and I think 3G means it is.

Dc urbanite said he was able to use this phone on consumer cellular service, I have not been able to get internet working on the service even with consumer cellular help when not on my wifi network. The phone works, but not mobile internet. If anyone has been able to get the the Internet working I would love to know how!

NO! This cellphone ONLY works to use the Consumer Cellular service. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME IF YOU WILL NOT BE A CONSUMER CELLULAR USER!!! I am only a customer of Consumer Cellular, no stock(s), etc...

Yes. I did have to get a new sim card from consumer cellular to make the phone work. I put in the sim card from my old consumer cellular phone but it was out of date. There's no charge for the new sim card. I used the internet instructions from consumer cellular to activate the phone with the new sim card.

It comes factory unlocked, but by the specs the 3G it is going to work only with Digitel. 2G in the three companies. Viene desbloqueado de fabrica, pero según las especificaciones solo funcionara el 3G con Digitel, en 2G funcionara con todas.

Dear friend, Thanks for your resoponse. This phone can just support 2G network: GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz. So if you want use this phone, you should let your sim card meet this condition. Thanks a lot.

I am not sure what Consumer Cellular is. If it is a specific company, the FX that I have is Locked to AT&T network.
