It wont work, and that phone is not a good phone, calls drop constantly, battery drains like crazy. Cricket has the hydro Kocera, It is a great phone.

I had to call Verizon after activating the phone and ask them to remove the data plan. Best to check with your carrier prior to purchase.

Yes, all go phone plans including the 10 cents per minute plan work just fine except data. Data only works on the $60/month plan.

I am beyond frustrated. I just bought this phone after seeing all the answers here & thinking I could just transfer my current pre-paid plan w/o the data plan. I spoke with a supervisor at Verizon. She said there is NO way this phone can be activated w/o a data plan. Verizon is trying to phase these older models out but if you are willing to pay a minimum of $50/mo for the data plan, you can activate it. She said any plan w/o a data plan will not be supported on this phone & she tried numerous ways to get around that to no avail. I don't know that I would have better luck taking it to a Verizon store. Sounded pretty hopeless. Any comments or tips anyone? I am beyond frustrated.

Mine is working fine,may you should try to check with your sim card if is ok by inserting into your mobile phone and try to call if it responds then try insert it again into your bug device and make sure there is some light blinking inside your device near to the sim card that's tells you that our device is operational(on) .

IF YOU UNLOCKED THE PHONE, the answer is MAYBE but it depends if Cricket has transitioned to the AT&T network yet. At this point today, It is doubtful. I say that because Cricket historically used the CDMA network but PRIOR to being absorbed by AT&T. This LG L70 phone is definitely a GSM phone. So, if they are using their old CDMA network, then it definitely will NOT work (and judging from the timing I would guess that to be the case) BUT if they've transitioned to using AT&T's network, it could work.

I couldn't activate the data plan because they told me this doesn't work with smartphones.

Yes you can just call the activation number from the env and update it there but I would suggest going to an actual retailer in order to avoid a mix up with a data plan fee.

Hi, Yes, you do Not need a data plan to use this phone. I had a AT&T; flip phone with no data plan. I just took the chip and plugged it into this phone and it works. It has wi-fi but the software is old.

I was a cricket customer on the regular 50$ plan and I purchased this same phone from Amazon and I was able to get it activated and I kept my same phone number

I bought two of these phones. Both are two months old and neither of them work. No way to get tech support or warranty. So, from my perspective, the answer is no, this phone will not work with Cricket or any other wireless provider because the phone sucks.

It comes without a data plan and I purchased it to replace my phone that broke, but for which my plan still hadn't run its course until I could get an upgrade. It came with directions to fire it up on my pre-existing plan that I was replacing my broken phone from.

I have t mobile and a data plan was included in my plan. When I took the phone to the store the guy said he could not get the data to work on this kind of phone. After a month or so I got it working on my own. A required data plan would be up to your company I would think.
