this is a basic android phone. like the first one that ever came out the only difference is that now it's made big and fancy. so I would say no. I had t mobile and I couldn't get pic messages either.

Yes, just call straight talk and get the correct APN settings. I also have the Att sim card from straight talk.

Yes, the phone was unlocked. I purchased a Straight Talk sims card and the phone works great. No problems encountered at all.

No, there is no SIM card for this phone. It's a CDMA phone, and only GSM phones have SIM cards, that essentially store all your info, and you can switch that card from phone to phone. What the other people were answering was that there is a a microSD card slot that is located under the back cover. You can use up to a 32GB MicroSD card to increase your phone's memory/storage. If Straight Talk allows CDMA phones on their network, this phone should work.

Bought a att go phone and used the card out of it. Sends me text with picture. You buy your minutes. Had a problem setting it up but found instructions on the net.

The one I had was a Verizon version which contained no sim card. I think sims are pretty straight forward just pop out the old and in with the new.

I only have the Verizon version. Not aware of if there is a SIM version If there is then why not? Make sure you do not get one formatted for Verizon

I do not have an AT&T; phone. I went to AT&T; store and bought a SIM card for $9.99 for 1000 texts. It is text only. or 19.99 for unlimited text. It is working without any problems.

I would also like to be able to see this product "(39560). This is advertised as an unlocked cell phone --- will it definitely take an ATT Sims card? Millie mtreadaway@mail.com

STRAIGHT TALK - You know, a little bit unrelated, but I just got my Motorola Defy XT at Walmart, but I was told by the sales person that it ran on the AT&T; network but I just found out that it's actually a CDMA phone, probably on the crappy Sprint network, I get very weak signals where I live. I don't quite know what to do now... Return it to Walmart and lose half my 45 bucks in airtime credit I put in, or stick w/ it... I also was planning on installing a different SIM card from Straight Talk that I have, this one by AT&T;, can anyone give me advices? Thanks!

According to Straight Talk's promo for "Bring your own phone", you can use your own phone if it is GSM or CDMA... this one is GSM and unlocked, so yes, you should be able to use it with Straight Talk. I was able to use mine with AT&T; GSM, but my biggest warning on this model is that you are not able to save apps, photos, or messages to the SD card, so the (limited) phone memory was constantly full with very few apps. Annoying. Only used it a few months before I moved to another Android phone that allowed you to use the SD card memory for apps.

Hey Jerry, so from my understanding you can switch your SIM card to the straight talk phone and you should be able to use it. I would definitely suggest asking them if you are able to use it with them just to double check though:)

I put in my SIM and SD card. Unfortunately, it never read either. Was going to return it, but a pal bought it and swears he can get it working.... haven't heard from him since. Which is either a good thing or bad thing.

Unfortunately, Your phone wont be able to work on any carriers but AT&T; and T-mobile because they are the only 2 companies providing services for GSM phones aka unlocked phones. You cant update it to use on straight talk because it is not going to do any good either. I hope this helped ya.

I actually had to call straight talk and have them send my sim cards for both of my phones that I ordered. Then once I received the sim card I called straight talk back to get them to register my phone. The seller actually should have said that in the ad that these phones came with sim cards

It does require a SIM card - I'm not sure about being able to use it with straight talk. Ask the seller. Their customer service ROCKS! :)
