As far as I know u should be able to. We took the phone to our local Verizon store, and they did it all for us.... At no charge.

I think you'll have to call Verizon to make sure. I don't really know how SIM cards work regarding contracts and switching phones.

I was able to do so. Lost my smart phone. Bought this phone to use until I found it. No problem swapping phones after logging into my account on the Verizon website. Worked like a charm.

Just move your sim card from your old phone to the new one. If you get an error message then you may need to take the phone to an at&t; store to get a new sim card. But your number will stay the same

Yes, that's what my daughter did. She broke the phone she had, but was still under contract, so she just took the new phone to the Verizon store and had them swap it over.

If you have a SIM card from your previous phone, you should just be able to insert it and go-same number the original phone had. With no SIM card, you do need to go to Verizon for them to activate it but there usually isn't a charge.

Yes, the old sim card will work. You'll still need to get your mobile carrier to activate the phone, but it should be straightforward.

I would suggest going to a Verizon store and they can assist with changes involving the Sim card.

We tried our existing SIM card but it didn't work. Then we took it to AT&T and they couldn't make it work. AT&T told us we bought a defective phone. I contacted the company I purchased it from and they processed a refund for us. So buyer beware - a used phone may or may not work for any number of reasons. Ideally, the SIM should be transferable as long as the phone and the SIM are issued by the same carrier. Hope that helps.

Yes!!! I transfered my previous Verizon number to this phone. Just remember that you will have to purchase a smart phone plan for android....for example the $50 monthly prepaid plan

No, this isn't a pre-paid phone. You have to have it activated by Verizon. They'll assign it a new number or transfer an existing number you have on your old phone.

As long as your old phone was a tracfone, then you can move it over to the new one. I'm not sure about phones from a different plan.

This phone did not come with a sim card. It is for the Verizon network. To active the new phone:1. Enter *228 and press send. 2. Select option 13. Enter your cell number4. Enter your passwordThe phone will then activate to the number used on your old phone.

I did that by moving the SIM card from my old phone (which was also a T-Mobile prepaid phone) to the new one. If you have questions, call T-Mobile and they'll talk you through it. Any unused minutes you had can also be transferred.

Yes. Just remove the SIM card from your previous smart phone. (You will need to have a data plan on your current contract) Place your SIM card in the new phone. The device will run through a wizard set up, soon after it should connect to the Verizon services.

Yes, that is what I did. My existing phone was having issues so I bought this new one and had verizon transfer my contacts and number to it without having to renew my contract.
