If I purchase this phone from Amazon, how do I go about transferring my address/phone book from my old phone to my new one???

If you sync your google account (on an android phone) it will keep a copy of your contacts, so when you use that same email for your new phone it will automatically sync your contacts to your new phone.

If your current phone has a SD card, save your contacts to this location. Then, put the SD card into your new phone and download the contacts to your new device.

Go to boostmobile.com, if you have a boostmobile online account setup just login and go to update handset, you will enter your new phones meid number and this should switch your service over. If you dont have a account go to the activate link on the boostmobile homepage and follow the steps. good luck!!

if you want to keep your old number you will have to go to an at&t store. i had verizon before i had this phone and I purchased it at the at&t store where they were able to import my old number.

From a previous Tracfone? Yes, you can transfer your old number and the remaining minutes from your previous phone right on Tracfone's web site to your new phone, like this LG.. Using their site works well and IMO it is much easier then trying to get a Tracfone CS rep on the phone and have to deal with them.

If you have an existing Verizon plan already, activating the new phone is quite simple. All you need to do is call *228 and press 1 for activate, from there just follow the prompts. You can also go to any Verizon store and they can activate the phone for you as well as transfer all of your contacts over to the new phone.

You can, but it does take some time. Make sure you don't cancel your Verizon account until the transfer is complete, or you will lose your number. It would probably be easiest to buy the phone at a store and have them set it up with your Verizon number to begin with rather than order it in the mail and then try to have the number changed.

I was able to switch my phone number from an old cell phone to this phone with Verizon. There are instructions on the website to do this.

This phone was used as a spare so I did not look into using "my old number," but I think it is transferable. I would direct the question directly to BoostMobile. Here the link to http://www.boostmobile.com/search/?q=transfer%20number#search

I just called Verizon and we did the transfer over the phone. Very simple and they will guide you thru all the steps..

Yes, just put your SIM card in from your old phone and go. I did the same thing after purchasing this phone.

I would go through Verizon to get this phone. As long as your contract is up, it will give you the option of signing up again for 1 or 2 years. And since this would be re-signing up for a contract, you will get the discounted price to upgrade your phone. I am not sure how Amazon does the upgrades and therefore would suggest going through Verizon for that. Hope this helped.

I called t-mobile and asked about this. You get the phone shipped to you, at that time it has a new number. You call T-mobile immediately and give them the info for the transfer from your old company. T-mobile then puts the request in, so you don't ever have to talk to your old company again (so long as you are not on contract!). They said it should take less than a day.

Contact Verizon and tell them you want to activate a new phone and transfer your number. You'll need the serial number for the phone you want to stop using and the serial number for the new phone to give them. They will activate the new phone and switch your number.

Absolutely, just pop into a Verizon store and the salespeople can switch everything in a matter of seconds, or you can contact Verizon direct and follow the steps to transfer info, number etc to your new phone. Your security number won't change. The old phone will be deactivated from further use and you can recycle it. I just went to the Verizon store and let them do the work, free of charge, it was a lot quicker than following steps on the phone. Good Luck!

Yes, if you bring it to Verizon they will transfer all your existing contact information and pictures if applicable.

Yes, that is exactly what we have. We bought the phone on Amazon and then brought it to our local Verizon store and they activated it and copied all the contacts info to the phone from our previous phone.
