Can you use a at&t Medianet plan on this phone?

idk about medianet, but, you do not need a data plan to use all of the functions of this phone. For example, i bought this phone, downloaded google voice and voice plus to it, then downloaded gmail, and with a wifi connection, i can access all of the functions of this phone, including the ability to browse the internet and make calls for free. I have the 25 dollar plan, but have yet to use a single minute on that plan!

I am not aware of what the AT&T; Medianet plan consists of. I use my phone with the pay as you go plan. I just inserted my SIM card into this phone and it worked.

I was told that MediaNet is a non-HTML format designed for phones other than smartphones. As such it gives you preformatted options that do not apparently take advantage of a superior phone like the E71. Here is a link to a video discussion. Can anyone comment? http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/video-library/index.jsp?myVideo=medianetJay5050

Yes. The way around this is to go to consumercellular.com and get one of their plans. They re-sell att bandwidth, there is no contract and you don't need to buy a data plan.

You could use this phone as a prepaid plan. Also it does have wifi capability

Thank you, but I am not a GoPhone customer - I was wondering about being able to pay that price for a data plan for a non-go phone current at&t; customer.

Probably, I used it with AT&T's $40 plan and it was fine. Just give them a call.

Technically yes but I would consider a newer device. This is a much older device with an older OS, and a much slower processor. Its ATT support is also only on 3G networks and even that is limited to specific bands. Overall, you will be paying for a significantly gimped device given what is in the market.

No, the phone isn't unlocked. You will need to unlock it to use it on a different network other than AT&T.;

Just take the sim card to your preferred carrier and ask them to activate it for you. These sim cards are for pre-paid plans anyways...If you're going to AT&T; they have a site to activate the card. Follow the instructions carefully and you should be fine.

This is not an unlocked device. This device is specifically to use on AT&T; network. It is available for a prepaid or regular monthly plan service. For more information about AT&T; service, please contact AT&T.;

You will be able to make calls, as for your data plan, you may only get 2G - check which frequencies AT&T; uses for 3G in your calling area.

Yes if its unlocked but if its an original at&t; phone no- because at&t; locks their hotspot/tethering to only their service plans

I don't think so...it's a Verizon phone so am quite sure it doesn't work with the AT&T plan!

I don't think so. I only use it for calling and texting and not the internet, but we've had the plan for a while. Might be worth a quick call to AT&T; to see what is available.

yes u can ...but it would have to be the sim card from straight talk under at&t or tmobile ...im using net10 sim under at&t ....works good .

You should be able to. It is GSM and takes a SIM card. I am using it on Straight Talk, which takes AT&T phones.

Yes, you can use your At&t sim card in it. My works perfect with any sim card. Just make sure the phone is unlock.
