Very slow to download mail and other functions, and not sensitive to touch, really have to poke an app or any other function such as phone or menu for it to respond. Has problem picking up wi-fi . Has a flash lite but not able to find out how to use it. Get a doorbell sound every 15 minutes that ...

Had this for 3 weeks now and it is almost un-useable. Have to repeatedly remove and re-insert the battery for it to work.

Here are various ways to keep track of your balance:

You can also display your service's remaining balance on your phone's screen:

  • For Android customers:
  1. From the home screen, open the My Account Downloader.
  2. Install the Tracfone My Account App.
  3. Tap Open.
  4. From the home screen press and hold any clear area until the Widgets icon appears at the bottom of the screen. (You may need to install your Balance Display on another page or move some icons to another page if you do not have enough room.)
  5. Tap on the Widgets icon and select the My Account widget.
  6. Hold and drag the widget to the desired location. Your balance will now be displayed.

  • For iPhone customers:
  1. From the App Store, install the Tracfone My Account App.
  2. Tap Open.
  3. Go to the Home or Lock screen and swipe right.
  4. Go to the bottom of the screen and tap Edit.
  5. Tap the plus sign next to the Tracfone widget to add it.
  6. Go to the top of the screen to see the order of the widgets.
  7. If you would like your Balance Display to appear at the top of the screen, tap, hold and drag the horizontal lines located to the right of the widget to the top.
  8. Tap Done when finished. Your balance will now be displayed.

Note: For some phones, these steps may not work. Please visit Tracfone's Interactive Tutorials for more information on how to find your balance.

I just put money on my trac phone, then want to check how many months I have to use this amount... when I check my balance, it says my phone is not registered. What website or number can I check ? Thank you

I saw this on another forum. I was having problems with the blank or black screen during a phone call but the normal screen would not come back as it should. First thing I saw that I tried was to wipe/clean off the screen where the Proximity Sensor was located(that is is just below the left side of the speaker/ear). The other thing suggested which fixed it entirely is an app on Google Play by ZTE. It is called Proximity Sensor Calibration. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.zte.ProximeitySensorClib&hl=en

There is another one there now.... look up
Proximity Sensor Repair. Seems to have repaired the constant black
screen over and over when turning it on/removing battery etc over and
over and eventually it would come on... but often when screen turned off
after 5 minutes .... it was black again with only the backlit part on
(can see only in ambient  light).

Just open Google Play store, search for Facebook, and then install it. :)

Go to Settings > Accounts > choose account > press Menu key > Remove account.

You can't remove the main Google Account in your phone.

Hope that helps!

Hi there! Please try this:

Go to Settings > Accessibility > TalkBack, turn it off

I'm pretty sure you're having a hard time navigating in your phone.

Use 2 fingers when scrolling or swiping and double tap to choose an option.

Let me know if that works. :)

This phone use CDMA technology which is only compatible with the Sprint and Verizon networks, so all Tracfone ZTE Valet phones will be on one of these two networks. Verizon has much better nationwide coverage than Sprint. It may be possible to tell which SIM is installed (either Sprint of Verizon) based on the numbers on the package. You may need to Google to find out about this.

Hi Becky. That depends upon where you buy your phone or SIM card. Straight Talk phones can use AT&T, T-mobile, Verizon, or Sprint, depending upon where you purchase your phone, the ZIP code entered before you shop for a phone on Straight Talk’s web-site, and the specific model phone that you select. source

Hi Mara. Please try restarting your phone. The problem may just be because you're not getting network signal.
