Q: QuestionCan this be used with AT&T NVMO's like Puretalk?

Asked 5 years ago by DaveM.

• A:Answer To use an AT&T branded phone on one of the MVNOs, you should search for the info at the website of the provider (look up PureTalk on Google). They usually have the info listed under phone requirements. It may say unlocked phones are required. A locked phone means it's locked to a pad service provider such as AT&T. Some MVNO providers let you use locked phones but it's not common. H20 used to allow locked AT&T phones on their network but to port a number in, you may need an unlocked AT&T phone. To unlock an AT&T prepaid phone, they usually have to be on the AT&T service for six months, then you request an unlock. Look up request unlock at AT&T website or on Google for info.

Q: QuestionDo the phone have WhatsApp

Asked 5 years ago by Mike.

• A:Answer I was just in the KaiOS store on the AT&T Smartflip again and found WhatsApp, Facebook, Tweetfit (Twitter for KaiOS), and Zap Podcasts. There are a lot of interesting little apps including a world radio app that streams music over WiFi from around the world as well as USA and Canada. I hope that helps.

Q: QuestionCan I use this phone on my Safelink plan? And transfer all my info?

Asked 5 years ago by Pat.

• A:Answer To use an AT&T phone on SafeLink you have to unlock it. Locked phones usually don't work on other services providers' networks. To unlock an AT&T prepaid phone you can request an unlock from AT&T. Visit the AT&T website to look it up. Usually they will unlock after 6 months on AT&T service but you can try to request an unlock as a non AT&T customer. Search "AT&T phone unlock request" on Google. To IMMEDIATELY use a flip phone on SafeLink, you should consider that SafeLink runs on the TracFone family brand of Net10. You may be able to buy a TracFone and get it rebranded to SafeLink like I did with a TF Stylo 3. You have to make sure it runs on the same network as your current service if you have to have an AT&T based phone (AT&T is GSM). Most TracFones run on Verizon. A few are T-Mobile. There are Alcatel MyFlip phones model A405DL or TFALA405DC that are very similar to this AT&T Alcatel Smartflip 4052R model. I have both Alcatel flips. You can buy the Alcatel MyFlip at Best Buy, and at the TracFone website for less than the AT&T Smartflip. But DON'T buy the phone until you verify with SafeLink that you can transfer your service to the TracFone MyFlip. I did transfer service from a GSM ZTE zFiveG that SafeLink gave me, to a Verizon based TracFone SIM that came with my LG Stylo 3. It took a long time by phonecall and it worked.
