Does Boost Support the email application on this phone? Or can email only be done through the web browser?

They do support e-mail, but there is no security. Whenever I checked my e-mail with the phone, my e-mail got hijacked by spammers. Once I stopped checking it with the phone, the spamming stopped. I would highly urge you to purchase a different phone. If Boost is giving you this one for free, you are not getting a bargain. It is a terrible phone! Choose something better. Hope this is helpful!

To my knowledge, only AT&T; & T Mobile provide international GSM service. The Boost Mobile phone I had was locked. I bought an unlocked Pantech Sky Vega II to replace it. You can buy the sim cards and download apps from the Google store that you need.

Hi, Actually no, Boost mobile uses CDMA so this phone will not work for them. You may want to contact Boost Mobile however, as they may have a boost mobile specific iphone but this specific phone will not work for Boost. Hope that helps! Thanks

I bought this phone a few months ago and I went to Boost Mobile and NO you can NOT use this phone with their service, you can only use this phone with Sprint!

No, Boost is a CDMA carrier like Sprint and this phone is GSM, good for T-mobile and AT&T network.

These phones are GSM, and will work with any carrier with provides GSM service. Boost is a resellar, and as such uses the cell systems of other carriers. You will need a Sim card from Boost for this to work, if they do provide GSM coverage. You might consider picking up a prepaid card if they offer one for a few dollars just to see if it works.

Hi, if it specifically states "Boost Mobile", it can only be used with Boost Mobile!!!However, sometimes you can find tech experts that can "unblock" the phone so that you can use other carriers!!!Don't buy one of these phones to unblock unless you know of someone who can do it!!!That being said, carriers that support this phone will usually have their name in the title when you're searching for these phones!!! If it's a Boost, it'll list Boost, if it's Verizon, it'll list Verizon, etc.!!! Good luck!!!

no it will not. Boost phones do not ise SIM cards like the other phones. they are CDMA. if youre not a Boost Mobole customer the phone is a brick.

Not sure, I don't use it for email or anything web related. There are web functions so I would assume you can get email from wherever but I don't use that feature so I can't verify. This kind of phone, while it CAN do those things, is not at all like a smart phone. That's why I wanted it. Sounds like you may prefer a smart phone if you want to do email

Yes, either u can call boost and follow the automtive agent or you can goo to boost mobile's website create or sign in to your account then activate the phone.

I have not used that option. I had to take my phone to a BOOST store and have it reset. I'm seriously considering sending it back because regardless of where I am I seldom have more than two bars for coverage. A friend has a Galaxy using BOOST service and has been very happy with it. This is the only reason I went with BOOST. Think seriously before mail ordering a phone. If I change phones I will now have the headache of dealing with Amazon to return it. Good luck with your choice!

I think so cause I used mine with net10 and it works just fine. It says it is compatible with any gsm network so if boost has a SIM card that is programmable to any phone then u should be good but check into it to be sure.

Yes it will text you to download it. I just updated to 5.1. Note going to 5.0. It pushes things deeper into thecgoogle ecosystem. I found all my emails combined under gmail. Not a huge deal, but a bit surprising. Nexus is not just a pure android experience, but more of a google/android experience

At the time it was just a boost phone however now most phone carrier's allow you to bring any phone to their service. It should not be a issue. I would check with the service provider prior just in case. though

This phone is currently listed as a supported device for Boost Mobile. I am unsure of what their "bring your own device" policies are, but if it's anything like Ting's (another Sprint-based virtual network operator) you should be OK.

You can call Boost Customer Service and ask, but I don't think so. When I purchased my phone and set it up I was not offered the unlimited everything plan.
