The receiving signal of this phone is great with all networks.. Try different locations and places and with no cases or covers.. Otherwise, there must be something wrong with your phone. Good luck.

When I traveled to the states, I tried T-Mobile. It is pretty good. But always double check with your area for local carrier apn setup. That makes a big difference when I switch between Canadian and us networks.

My cell is not working. I tried three cell phone carriers and it did not work. The reading is "No Sim Card" but the sim card is there. The phone is unlock but still does not work. Guess I was not lucky. To late to return it. Just hope others having the same phone works. Samsung phone are the best in clarity. Good Luck.

Verizon only means it works with Verizon as carrier. I purchased a Samsung that said it worked with PagePlus network specifically. Even then it had to be reprogrammed because it was 4G. It was a pain to do and cost $40 for the guy to program. Stick with a phone that matches your network carrier. Overall I'm disappointed with this phone.

What is the cell phone carrier? I believe it works with all carriers that require a sim card because it is unlocked. Call the cell phone company that you want to go with and ask just to be sure.

Well it won't load if you do not have any signal or if it is not in your contract. I don't have the phone now because it was not good for me to use. Contact your service provider if this doesn't help. Not the best phone. Never go knockoff.

Sorry to have to tell you, but it is the one downfall of this phone. I have Consumers Cellular and mine does not work either. When you bring an unlocked phone over to a carrier there is always the possibility of loss of some functionality. It is probably that the frequencies are off. This is a common problem. My son just bought a Nexus 5 and brought if over to Consumers Cellular and it work great. It is just the chance you take. Other than this problem, I love the phone.

I don't believe Tracfone has just one carrier. It picks up signals. Best people to answer your question would be Tracfone.

This phone won´t work in any part of the universe... as SUBLboyIME stated previously, it is slow. But even worst, it will reboot every time you´ll try to make a call, send a message, connect to internet, etc. You can´t even look at it, because the little piece of junk will reboot as well. WORST phone ever....

I never had the 3G. I'm sorry. Verizon has been good, though. I've never had a problem connecting, even when I was in some tiny towns in the middle of nowhere. I wouldn't recommend verizon if you plan on using lots of data...videos, gaming, etc...because of the cost of data used. However, if you aren't a netflix junkie and just want to surf the net or whatever, it may be a good option for you.

I use Tmobile on mine. Ive seen complaints on this phone about 4G not showing on the phone, that it has hspa+ which is basically the same thing, at least in my area. we dont have "true" 4G here, but it works great on the 3G network we get.

U need to check the bands that your phone provider uses. And compare then with the ones that this phone uses. But IMO this phone its soo bad build and breakable that its not worth even the search... still its your choice but ill try to get a ZTE android or other similar... hope this help :D

It works with any brand of phone / carrier as long at there is a signal. If you do not have a signal it will not give you one. I have used it with a 4 year old "dumb phone" to boost text in and out. My wife used it for data in and out on 3G last year from a campground that barely had a signal on SPRINT. Then 4G when she went with VERIZON and fast. A friend of ours was using it with VERIZON 2 years ago at the same campground. Used his old 3G phone as a wireless hotspot to connect to a computer. Do some research to make sure the connectors are right on the cradle / antenna / phone. There are different ones. Do your homework before you buy relative to the cables.

I was told by NET 10, it depending on the SIM, etc. My Net 10 Salaxy S3 was Sprint also and I had poor service. Now I have a S4 and same thing...it is T-Moble and VERY POOR Service! I'm thinking about leaving Net10 for this reason & I've been a customer for over 15 years.

T-Mobile has the cheapest plans, best customer service (in my experience) and decent reception but, unfortunately, the worst selection of phones. They are always behind the other big GSM carrier, Cingular. But everyone I know with Cingular has terrible reception. So what I do is get an unlocked GSM phone of my choice (usually from Europe or Asia via ebay - overseas phones are always light years ahead of us anyway) and put my US T-mobile SIM card in it. That is what I have done and now am enjoying the awesome blue new Motorola Krzr!! Works PERFECTLY. So, I wouldn't wait if I were you - by the time T-mobile carries the Krzr, there will be something else newer and better on the market.

This phone is giving me hell. It doesn't have good network at all. It goes off most of the time while talking. It tells you that there is no network while the strength on the sim card is full and then goes off. It is a hell phone. The manufactureres need do something.

It probably does not have the correct APN for your area. Also this phone has one sim slot that is 2g and 3g in the other. We ended up getting a different phone cause it wouldn't work with 4g in our area. To much down time for a nice phone. They need to change to a 4g or lte to make it work around here. As my husband would say "it works better after you bounce it off the floor".
