You can use this with Tracfone service but you may not get any signal from the location you are in. I was made to understand that this phone when using tracfone works off the Verizon towers for signal. I had no signal at my location in Florida and had to return the phone.

This phone, the one provided by shopcelldeals in this particular offer, is Tracfone only. There are StraightTalk only Optimus Dynamics, and Net10 only Optimus Dynamics. Make sure you get the right one.

I bought this one for Tracfone use. I was told long ago that Tracfone used all the towers, and I had great reception. Now, it's sketchy. My friends where I am use Verizon, so if it uses Verizon towers and they have good reception, it would stand to reason that I would too. ??

No, this is not true. Tracfone sells this phone and it can be used in your area if you are within range of Verizon towers.

I bought this phone as a replacement phone. I already had a phone number that I just transferred over.If you buy this phone you can contact Tracfone and request a phone number or transfer a number.Hope that helps.

I believe it will work "In December 2013, TracFone unveiled "Bring your own phone," which allows customers to use an unlocked CDMA and GSM phone on the TracFone network. My phone is GSM kind (not CDMA) and it works well with independent provider. But You must check it out first at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TracFone_Wireless#International_long_distance

I haven't done that, I did it from Verizon to Tracfone. Anyway, If you are currently with Tracfone, you can update your phone. If you coming back to Tracfone from another carrier, I believe you can come back to Tracfone any time. The phone number is yours and it doesn't belong to any carrier.

I do not know what "trac phone" is, but I know the phone is unlocked. Bear in mind it is a BASIC phone.

I believe you will have to have the phone factory unlocked, tracphone makes both cdma and gsm phones,because your phone ends in a G this means it is a gsm device so you do have that in your favor!

I have AT&T.; Every other phone, including LG, I have used with my service has worked everywhere I go. This phone did not. This leads me to believe there is a problem with this particular model of phone. I would stay away from it.

The phone that I use is a Straight Talk prepaid 9310 through Walmart. It says in the description on Amazon that it is a Boost Mobile phone so I'm guessing you can't use it on another carrier. I think other carriers have also offered this phone om a prepaid plan, too. I don't think Tracphone has ever offered this model.

By default the phone is locked to AT&T;'s service. If you get the phone unlocked then it is possible to use on T-mobile's service.

I disagree based on the latest BYOP news from Tracfone and Howardforums following 4G LTE Verizon working on Tracfone now. I think all off contract mVerizon lte phones will now work on tracfone. I am looking for the best one for me right now.

i am in the US ... according to the seller the phone is usable internationally ... i was unable to use the phone with my service provider and had to return it but other US providers would have been able to use it... so the limitation appears to be with the service providers not country standards that is the usage limitation

Yes. I don't have the link, but there's an interactive Tracfone site that walks you through different use scenarios using the phone and accessing an email account (Gmail) was one of the scenarios. I'm not sure that all email providers will work with the phone, though.Link: http://tracfone.deviceanywhere.com/tracfone/home.seam?custId=TFLG306G&locale;=en_USAccessible via Support - Phone Tutorials

no because tracfone for now only allow to bring your own phone with cdma phones. My partner uses tracfone and put the card in another unlocked phone similar to this and wouldnt work. Sim card taken from another tracfone will not work they are not interchangeable

I use this phone with straight talk which I think is part of tracfone. So I would think you could.

It should work with all mobile services that use sim cards, but some of the service's features could hinge on having their phone. T-Mobile's T-zone or myFaves, for example, would not work on an unlocked phone. Also, some accessories you buy from your service provider may be locked also and will not work. But that only affects the features of the phone, you would still be able to use the phone through your service provider to call people, text, etc.. The only services I know of that wouldn't work are Sprint PCS, Verizon, and Virgin Mobile, because they don't use sim cards. If your phone uses a sim card, go for it.
