What to do with old phone when Upgrading (NE2 plan) ?

I have an LG DARE that is 20 months old and still works perfectly - screen in excellent (non-scratched) shape; had had a "protector" on it ...
What do people do with these older phones? Is there a Market to sell them some place? Or do I just recycle via the VZN store?
Thanks

You can donate your cell phone to Cell Phones for Soldiers.  Cell Phones for Soldiers hopes to turn old cell phones into more than 12 million minutes of prepaid calling cards for U.S. troops stationed overseas. The phones are sent to ReCellular, which pays Cell Phones for Soldiers for each donated phone – enough to provide an hour of talk time to soldiers abroad.
Using a padded envelope, you can mail your unwanted cell phone to The National Coalition Against Domestic Violence,  which collects and distributes working cell phones to victims of domestic violence so that they may call 911 for help in emergencies.
Phones For Life gives seniors a lifeline by providing them with a 911-capable working mobile phone, enabling them to call for emergency help should they suffer an accident or emergency.  Their drop-off locations are in a number of states, or you can donate your phone by mail.

  • Upgrading.. what to do with old phone?

    I am upgrading to the iPhone 5 and this is my first ever upgrade. I currently have a 3GS. Once I transfer my apps/pics etc to the new phone do I restore the old phone to its orig settings? I may give it to someone I know to use so obviously I don't want any trace of what I had on it there anymore. Thanks !

    You restore it by going to Settngs > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings

  • What to Do with Old iPhone When a New One Comes Out

    What do you do with your old iPhone when a new one comes out? Is there some trade-in thing or something? Do I just pay full price for the new iPhone? Does AT&T have a trade-in policy or something?

    No trade-in. I just sell mine [on ebay] a few weeks before the newer version comes out, or right after. they go for quite a bit if they are in nice condition.

  • What is wrong with my phone?

    In October I dropped my phone down the toilet, this was sent off to be fixed which cost me £100. After it was fixed I had no problems with it at all. In December I managed to drop my phone on the pavement and the screen smashed, apart from a crack in the corner the phone was otherwise fine and I had no issues with it. I decided that it would be time to get the screen fixed, so the other week I gave it to a friend of a friend to fix it. Now my phone looks brand new, but it doesn't work. The screen on my phone constantly shakes and it is very distracting and makes my phone impossible to use. Another issue is that I can see small red lines all over the screen. The camera is the worst effected, and shakes violently when I attempt to use it. The man who fixed it recommended that I back up everything on my phone and reset it, which I have just done. Unfortunately it will no longer turn on, even though I know it has full charge. It will vibrate and make sounds whilst on charge but will not turn on.
    Does anybody know what is wrong with my phone, and what I can do to atleast turn it on. The man can't look at it until the weekend, but I desperately need my phone to work asap.
    Thanks.

    not sure who you sent it off the first time to have your phone fixed, but looks like your friend's friend, might have damage your phone when they repaired the screen.
    Send it back to them and have them fix it.
    Since you took it to a 3rd party to fix your phone, Apple won't touch it.
    YOu might be lucky and be able to buy an out of warranty 4S at the Apple store.

    I get a error message "To charge faster, use the cable and device that were provided with this phone" when charging my Samsung Galaxy note 3. I took it to a store last week and they said it has something to do with the last software update.  They tried charging it at the store and got the same message. I was given another phone, I still get the same error with the new phone.

    Wowuor, 
    Thank you so much for reaching to us today. I want to make sure that we get the device charging the correct way. There is no physical or liquid damage to the phone or to the power cord correct? Did this error just start to appear as of last week? Please keep us posted.

  • HT1212 my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone

    my iphone 5's screen blacks out every now and then. the phone is turned on but the screen is black and i can receive calls. what is wrong with my phone?

    I have to believe this has something to do with iOS 7 issues. I have taken my screen blacked out 5s twice to the Genius Bar and the found a bunch of system apps had crashed.  So if this is the case, is iOS7 the problem?

  • TS1372 does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reported during the restore mode?

    does anybody know what is wrong with the ipod when error 1437 is reportedduring the restore cycle?

    Double check the connections on each end to make sure they are nice and snug. If possible, plug the Nano into another existing USB 2.0 port. 
    Also, with the iPod still connected, try resetting it. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons (or the Volume Down and Sleep/Wake buttons on the 6G Nano) long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    Then try restoring the iPod again.

    You can turn it into the police. You can sell it as a parts phone if you are going to be ethical be sure to list it as a blacklisted phone.
    Have you enquired as to whether the blacklist is for non-payment or the device is stolen?

    Hi there,
    What is wrong with old <applet> tag? It will stop displaying java applet in the new browsers? What do we gain by using <embed>?
    Thanks.
    Mike

    The applet element was deprecated in HTML 4.01 but still works. Continue to use it to display AWT applets in NE else if using SWING applets must to use EMBED. See Java documentation for details, in special the OBJECT tag chapter..better reading about HTML converter.
