whynot Letoeles Harabim the LG Classic is now available to buy on the Tracfone website for
$14.99 [Login to see the link]
after all you can get it for $35 that's great!
is there any way to get it without making a plan???
Nhaaps No, but its still worth it
how can i unlock the phone to other carriers?
kolelguy Get two month plan, then call TracFone for unlock
lgexalter1 I've heard that, but was afraid to take the risk.
lgexalter1 I used one plan to unlock one phone and called tracfone to transfer it to another phone and it worked for both (though I did unlock the first before I transferred the plan)
I'm using my new lg classic with slectel wireless and my mms doesn't work any one has a way to fix it?
I have the same problem' I'm able to send but not receive, I think it has to do with a setting called CDMA-less device provisioning, but I didn't have success with their representative's yet.
kolelguy Talmid_chochem Have you tried forcing the phone to only connect to LTE? It has to be done from the hidden menu (dial*#546368#*125#
). Under "Network Mode Selection > Network mode", change from "1x/ EvDo / LTE auto" to "LTE". Might require a restart to fully take effect.
This solved signal issues for me on a Verizon MVNO since the Verizon 3G shutdown. The phone seems to always look for a now non-existent 3G CDMA signal otherwise.
cross_stix I tried this and I chat with a rep at the same time and it started working so I'm not sure who gets the credit.
on my old phone I had the same problem and cellular for less fixed it for me but now he wanted to chare me so I tried myself.
cross_stix when you type two asterisks on either side of something they don’t show up unless you type it as code *#546368#*125#
kolelguy Well, glad you got it working. The hidden menu method fix I suggested may only apply if the account/SIM/device doesn't already have CDMA-less provisioning properly enabled. So indeed the rep could have fixed it as well.
Furthermore, for anyone else having signal and/or MMS/SMS issues on a Verizon MVNO, I just stumbled on something potentially useful. Not too long ago, I used to be able to choose between 3G and 3G/4G auto via the normal settings menu (however, forcing 4G/LTE only was never an option here). Anyway, this "System Select" menu option now seems to be missing for me, even after a factory reset. I'm guessing my account/SIM was automatically updated at some point not long ago for CDMA-less provisioning, either that or the phone finally recognized the change, after a recent factory reset, hence the now missing setting.
This may be a good way to check whether an account/SIM has CDMA-less provisioning working under a Verizon MVNO with this phone. So to walk through. Under "Settings > Wireless & networks > Cellular networks" if you see don't see "System Select" you probably have CDMA-less provisioning already. However, if you do see "System Select" you probably need to contact your provider and have them enable CDMA-less provisioning. If this fails, you can of course try the hidden menu method I previously suggested.
Regardless, personally, even with my account now seemly having CDMA-less provisioning. I'm going to leave it set to "LTE" in the hidden menu anyway, just to be safe.
Lastly, I'm guessing the hidden menu fix/workaround may also apply to other providers with defunct 2G/3G (GSM/UMTS/HSPA) networks as well, assuming the phone is still trying to connect to those defunct networks, instead of just LTE. Not sure if a similar GSM and/or UMTS-less type provisioning is available with "GSM" providers.
whynot Thanks for the tip, fixed.
