Sprint - Tribute 4G No-Contract Cell Phone - White/Black
LG Tribute No-Contract Cell Phone for Virgin Mobile: Simple yet powerful, this prepaid smartphone makes it easy to stay connected. Its 4G LTE network is great for streaming online content and browsing social media, while a 5.0MP camera captures crisp, vivid images on its 4.5" display.
This is a Tribute! Entry price, pro performance!
Customer Rating
4.0
After years of lemons, (Except for Apple SG when new) I bought the LG Tribute because it had other positive reviews and my budget was limited.After a month, I can say, I love it!
If you stream, do social networking, etc. this phone is a bargain. Even when my server lowers speed on my data (which would render streaming nearly impossible on other makes) it is fine...just adjust the quality rate to medium when watching tv or movies.It uses LTE most of the time, which is super fast. It has a big full screen picture; also has front/back cameras...It looks and acts like the much pricier Samsung Galaxy phones .The LG format is elegant and the keyboard is wonderfully fluid.
I would have given it 5 stars, but it has flaws: VERY difficult to activate, due to extra features it requires help...It has a voice activated function for the visually impaired, which is on when the new phone is first turned on, along with a SIM card, also optional.Since I had no need of those, I had trouble circumnavigating them, and I couldn't auto activate the phone. After my server also couldn't do it via tech support, I had it activated at Best Buy...their service was great. I know my way around devices, but I couldn't do it myself. Get it activated at Best Buy! This model is probably on sale because of that and its odd size (just a bit shorter than an Apple 5) there are no cases manufactured to fit it. I created one; so far, so good.
It doesn't have its own gallery (photos, etc), but just use Google and that covers extra editing as well as back up!Last is I have been able to use my SD card storage for just few items, though it has loads of unused space.The phone has a large memory and power on its own.
That said, I paid so little for this phone, I am amazed at how terrific it is.If you know how to use the inner functionings of a mobile phone, you will be very pleased with the LG Tribute and will probably sing its praises, too.

Tracfone - Alcatel A392G No-Contract Cell Phone
Easily stay in touch with friends and relatives with this Alcatel A392G no-contract cell phone that enables SMS, MMS and group messaging, calling and mobile Web access. An MP3 player offers on-the-go entertainment.
help me with the functions of my A392G that I purchased to use with TRACFONE .Not sure how to get the most out of the features .
Where might I locate more detailed instructions ? Plus I and not very good with tech devices in the first place. I kinda missed the whole computer era . Sure would appreciate any help I can get. I probably need a video or something?
Though not a TracPhone user, or familiar with the phone you have, I know you probably are missing out unless you have a manual. Ideally, you should go online and Google the name and model of phone you have. You should be able to download a detailed manual if you are using a computer and printer or have access to one. In your case, I recommend asking someone with a computer and printer to do that for you. If you have internet on your phone, you can look things up there by going to Google and typing in your phone model. You should also be able to call Tracfone and when prompted, punch the number for technical support. A real person should be available to answer your question! If you bought via Best Buy, they are very helpful , too. Good luck!
