How do you get this phone to work on AT&amp;T? I bought this phone for my mother and took it to the AT&amp;T store but they couldn't get it to work.

My mother-in-law already had service with AT&T, so she had an old phone with an AT&T sim card. We simply place the old phones's sim card into the new Emporia Essence Plus phone, turned it on, and it worked on the AT&T network. Hope this helps.

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.

Could not use this phone with version towers in US. AT&T; was the only opion. Phone unlocked is not registered with version. Living in a rural community at&t; had no reception

I bought this phone and actually is working in 4g with Digitel (Venezuela). I dont know if the phone works in that way with At&t.

How does an unlocked phone work. I have ATT and have no contract. Will this phone work?

It is a GSM phone, so it is currently operating off the AT&T; network. If you look up AT&T;'s service area, you'll know if it will work in your area.

These phones are getting harder to find. The seller must clearly state that the phone is designed to work with only AT&T or all of the functions will not work. Steer clear of the phones that are "compatible" with multiple carriers, because functions like texting pictures will not work.

I live in the US and had the same problem. I have AT&Tand; they told me it is because the phone is not assigned to a specific carrier. So there is no guarantee your data plan will work with an unlocked phone. They told me to call Samsung which got me no where. Samsung told me to call AT&T; and they were able to fix it.

First the phone is not unlocked. It is an AT&T.; I tried to unlock it myself with no luck. Then payed forty dollars to unlock it. It would not work on T-mobile. I can not recommend buying this phone

Hello, this model is locked on AT&T you have to jailbreak & unlock it first to make it work with any other operator (it's easy ask google). Then usually there's no problem with iTunes. Problems comes when you start installing apps, it's an old phone and not every app is compatible. I hope it helps. Good luck. Christophe

NO!!!!! It won't work on AT&T; either! If you buy a Straight Talk Activation Kit those Sim Cards will not work! They didn't for us. I ended up trading this phone to Walmart and purchased a VERIZON STRAIGHT TALK GALAXY 3, and it works everywhere! If you bought this phone send it back!

My parents had AT&T and we switched the SIM card with no issues. It's lightweight very basic good for my senior parents. They have been happy with it. I called their provider to see if it was compatible before we bought, I had to give them the phone info to check. You could probably call your phone company to verify. Hope that helps :)

When I put a sim card in my phone, it didn't show it was locked, but it did have a problem with it wanting to use att menu not consumer cellular, is t and t compatible with at and t USA? I found this phone was made for ATT service and you need to find someone with your system at your providers office they sould be able to make it work..

Hello, and thank you for your interest! However, this phone is LOCKED to the AT&T; Network, therefore it will not currently work on the T-Mobile Network. We hope this helps!

The phone is locked with at &t. So when i went to one at&t store, they told it will work with any at&t sim... but i unlocked the phone paying money and i am using it now in a different country with a different service provider...

is it prepaid? AT&T; T-Mobile...is the sim compatible. I have two and both accepted the prepaid sims with no problem. walmart straight talk wont work on an unlocked phone. and then you could have defective phone
