    Galaxy J3 Sky won't receive calls or texts when powered up

    Thanks for your reply. Calls were definitely not coming through. When I called from other phones it went straight to voicemail. I messed with the phone all night. Called Samsung. They blamed network issues. But my other phone was fine. A factory reset seems to have fixed the problem. Don't...

    Galaxy J3 Sky won't receive calls or texts when powered up

    Sorry to post this twice. I couldn't find the Samsung forum. A couple weeks ago I changed my Straight Talk phone from a Moto E to the new Samsung Galaxy J3 Sky. Sometimes I turn my phone off at night so I'm not disturbed. I noticed that when I turn it back on in the morning, it won't receive...

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Re: Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straigh Talk I activated mine without a problem back in December, however they've since blacklisted all the IMEI numbers so you have to activate it with Verizon for at least a month in order to use it with another CDMA carrier.

    "10 attempts remain before device data is deleted"?

    I think it's bad idea. If someone can't get into the phone then why delete the data?

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Re: Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straigh Talk BTW, is there a reason you chose 16GB SD card and not 32GB or 64GB? Just cost? Don't need capacity? Thanks

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Re: Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straigh Talk Thanks for your opinion. I did notice it has the same chip set and screen resolution as the Moto E 2nd Gen. I just ordered 2 of the Moto E from Best Buy BF sale online for $9.98. I may go for the BF sale at WM for the Straight talk Grand Prime and...

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Re: Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straigh Talk Some reviewers said the call quality on the Grand Prime wasn't the best. Some say it's okay. Who Knows? My Galaxy Proclaim has always had good audio quality for talking and listening. The Walmart BF ad shows the Straight talk Grand Prime runs Lollipop...

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Re: Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straigh Talk Very interesting! Walmart BF ad also has the Straight Talk Grand Prime on Verizon Network for $49 which has Lollipop. But seemed like the reviews were just so-so. One reviewer said the LTE speed was slow. Display was washed out. Low pixel count...

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Re: Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straigh Talk Thanks for your reply. I'm glad it worked out. I'm actually looking at the Straight Talk S5 and the Verizon Moto E gen2. Both are on sale Black Friday. I've been on ST for 6 years and like the Verizon network phones. Have used a Galaxy Proclaim for the...

    Verizon Moto E 2nd gen on Straight Talk

    Can the Verizon Moto E 2nd Gen be activated on Straight Talk with the ST Verizon CDMA LTE sim? If so are there instructions on how to activate so it will work flawlessly. I read that the MMS messaging doesn't work? APN settings or something. Is there a work around for this? Or does it now...
