Can this phone be used as a replacement for a broken phone on a verizon contract (swap out SIM)?

Yes you might have to go to a Verizon store to transfer every thing from your old phone to the thunderbolt.
1273202
Yes. This phone was different from my last and Verizon gave me a sim that fit this phone at mo charge.
1273203
Yes it can. That's what I used it as. I don't know if I got a bad phone but I wouldn't recommend it. It has not worked correctly since I received it.
1273204
Yes, it can. I swapped it out when I destroyed my Galaxy Samsung. Thank you.

Yes, it can. But This phone is a piece of junk - dont get it. It is slower than even 3G phones with pathetic battery life and comes with just a 30day warranty. Touch screen in my phone went bad within 2 months.

I don't see why not. I switched from a Pantech Ease with a broken screen to another I bought on amazon. All I had to do was swap the sim. You should make sure that the phone is from the same carrier (ie. AT&T) in case your original one came from another carrier like T-Mobile.

Yes, you should be able to transfer it. We replaced broken phones with this phone, on our Verizon plan. It is a good value, inexpensive and provides the basics of talk, text, and pictures. Plus, by buying it from Amazon, you are not extending your contract!

If it is the same sized sim card that this phone takes then you sure can! That's what I did. I was in the same situation as you, just wanted something to hold me over until my upgrade.

Yes it's possible but you so need the at and t Sim card. Without the sim card is not possible. At and t should provide you a replacement sim

Yes. The phone you use doesn't matter as long as it's a Verizon phone, of course. Verizon wants to make sure they keep providing you phone service, that's the real reason for the contract. Good luck if you purchase the phone:-)

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.

If you have the same phone under your contract, then verizon will just swap the phone, if its different they may be an issue but the serial number or IMEI number they get when they program the phone for you at the Verizon store.

As long as it specifies that it is a virgin mobile phone, you shoukd have no problem. You should be able to do it on their site, just have the serial numbers available. Best of luck...btw, love the phone!

As long as this phone has a clean ESN ( meaning it wasn't stolen or part of an unpaid contract) then yes pop in your sim card and it should be fine

Yes. I believe it can only be out under a Verizon contract since it's a Verizon phone. If it is an "unlocked" phone, then it can be put under contracts with providers other than Verizon.

It should be able to be used with Verizon, even with a contract. I went through something similar and this phone worked just fine.

This is to replace a cracked or broken screen for Asus Nexus 7 that has also lost it's touch screen functionality. I don't think the the sim bought from Verizon would be an issue.
2197993
yes, and if y ou are using verizon you should be able to even switch the phones on line - I chose to go in. Just be careful, the phone I just purchased is already suffering from some of the same problems that began just before the phone completely went out of service.

Not sure if it can be used as a prepaid phone, but you can use this phone with Verizon without having to get a contract with them.

It probably can serve as a replacement. Suggest you call AT&T; service with your model number to be sure.

You can just buy it and swap it out for a phone on your line. I purchased mine and replaced my droid the day I recieved it with no change to my plan and no upgrade availible.
