Tracfone LG800G Unboxing (LG 800G)

[fReEmOnTx23]

Where can I buy this Phone?

[zekromisawesome]

I have a problem with mine, the touchscreen. Like when I tap games it goes to a different shortcut instead. When I try to calibrate the screen, and try to tap the dots, it won't work!

[mistystarice]

is this a good phone?

its in my budget and i dont really talk so much i pretty much only talk to my friends or emergencys really because im young but i would maybe get on the internet once in awhile so... can anybody tell be the good this about this phone and the bad things? I will subscribe to you if you would reply :)

[oWONTEKo]

@mistystarice It is a cheap phone, you're going to love it or hate it. You can't compare it to a Android or a iPhone. You can't watch youtube and the phone is not only 2G for data. They did have issues with text messages, but this was fixed. check out Wontek.com for more reviews... this is where you will get the best reviews.

[mistystarice]

@oWONTEKo Oh. It looks like an okay phone though.. but im not really looking for Android or iPhone type of phones because im seriously not into contracts and bills and my mom has an LG flip phone from tracfone and its ok. Is there like an app store or something similar to buy apps? if they do, what kind of apps do they have? Im sorry if im bothering you at all.. its just i want to becareful before i buy

[oWONTEKo]

@mistystarice the apps are few and pretty boring, the apps are $5 each as well. there is no games like angry birds.

[fReEmOnTx23]

How much is this Touchscreen Phone? looks Cool and Expensive

[oWONTEKo]

@fReEmOnTx23 it is a really cheap phone actually, you can get one from $39 to $50 dollars read more about the phone on wontek.com there are a few issues with the phone.

[hoboturkey777]

how would you compare this phone's touchscreen to the lg rumor touch?

thanks again

[oWONTEKo]

@hoboturkey777 The touch screen on the LG rumor is more responsive. What is your phone budget? there might be a better phone out there for you.

[hoboturkey777]

@oWONTEKo well, im stuck on tracfone. I cant switch to net10, straight talk, or anything else. im tired of my samsung t404g and the only other "cool" phones tracfone has are the lg 800g and the Motorola EX124G.

my budget is basically $70 dollars at the most

[oWONTEKo]

@hoboturkey777 yeah, unfortunately this really is a limiting factor, if you interest in other plans in the future we have lots of info on wontek.com

[hoboturkey777]

@oWONTEKo also, one last thing, i saw on your website that the lg 505c was rumored...

do you have any further information on when and if this phone might be coming out?

because i think that that phone would be the PERFECT one for me.

and have you been able to actually use the lg 505c?

because how else would you do a review on it if you didn't get to use it?

im sorry for all of the trouble, and thank you for all the help

[oWONTEKo]

@hoboturkey777 still hasn't been released, no more info at this stage.

[jovannylua]

this phone sucks id rather get a htc free style:)

[hoboturkey777]

@jovannylua they dont make that for tracfone though...

[fays29]

This seems to be a really cool phone. I am needing an upgrade as my Tracfone is getting a little long in the tooth. Triple minutes has sold the phone to me

[bdeyle]

I have net10 900g that I am useing

[bdeyle]

I am geting this phone for net10

[HaloKittycat3]

DOES IT COME WTH A MEMORY CARD OF ANY KIND?

[dagdogg]

My LG 800G was bought at Target and has TRIPLE Minutes feature instead of Double.

[Anon5K]

How do you put in asims card tracfone sent us to activate out former ATT cell phone number?

[YHBhomie4life2]

@Anon5K i cant remove back cover,can some help

[MacsCanfly]

Iphone 4s = rapes this micky mouse phone

[cellur111]

@MacsCanfly Well obviously..this is only a tracphone

[travis3286]

i have this phone it is ausome

[xxMelissa7890]

i have this phone and i saw that on other views, it can take that stupid prepaid icon on the main page off . does it need extra memory for that ?

[xxbasketballdudexx]

@jd122197 they hav it in my area now

[xxbasketballdudexx]

does it hav a regular headphone jack?

[MsClarissa86]

does this phone have fb twitter and email

[ConnorMarc]

Damn good music. If nothing else.

[cejay100]

Same with mine, the phone has the music button on it and it only says play lists, recently played, and genres, I want to add music but i dont know how

[whosbaddlillyc09]

how do i get music i have no memory card and i have unlimited minutes. :/

[BiancaHerrada]

@whosbaddlillyc09 you have to go to a store ask for a SD card first make sure you have a USB computer charger and you stick that SD card in you phone and you plug it in to the computer with your SD card in your phone and you put music onto your phone :D

[ghrpdx]

Thanks for the video but the music was rather annoying.

[lovablereborns]

Is this phone prepaid?

[MrSilvagunner]

seems like a decent phone

[TGxInFaMoUs]

Can This Phone Stream Videos At All From A Downloaded App???

[suicidepunch]

What's really gay, other than this music, is there's a youtube video about this phone but u can't watch youtube on the phone. Lame!

[xAanesaCutiex]

Does Tracfone charge you if you receive a text ??

[NicNacPTac01]

@xAanesaCutiex yes

[ChickensRawsoome]

is the touch screen the presure kind, or the finger kind(like the iphone or ipod touch)? please reply

[Pr0udDragon]

@ChickensRawsoome The pressure kind. I can't give you an example of how well it works because I'm getting the phone today.

[JoshuaCalcano]

do you get 250 minutes free every month like the other tracfones?

[NicNacPTac01]

@JoshuaCalcano yes

[kron1270]

if i give you my brand new nexus s 4g with accessories would you give me one you dont need to give me a charger or battery?

[cookiemonsta5546]

[BroadcastMyself97531]

[ThePeopleWannaKnow01]

[tyreba]

[dWeezy200]

@tyreba Do you like it !? I might get it in a couple weeks but im not sure if i still want it

[tyreba]

@dWeezy200 its good it didnt work in my area :)

[Zachb15064]

I hate gay people that only have music in there videos it's so stupid!

[mskatrinastepeny]

i wish i had dat kind of fone i got the stupid flip cuz im 11

[XxWilliam14xX]

@mskatrinastepeny i had a flip when i was 12, im 14 now and my dad bought me this phone :) prove your parents worthy and just do stuff to go from a Flip to a Touch :D

[toshman3]

does it stream videos??? and wtf? it says it has wifi??

[3113evan]

this phone sucks if u want to put a lot of music on it... takes a very long (and annoying) time to load the music.... i haven't even bothered trying to watch movies/videos on it... all in all, its just a crappy phone in disguise as a good one... just get a real phone or don't expect this one to be awesome and show it off to your friends...

[DarthCharlie22497]

i was messing around with it and it asked me for some codes. i didnt know what to do so i randomly typed in codes and now it says SIM blocked and will not let me do anything. WHAT DO I DO!?!

[Nekojin]

@DarthCharlie22497 DON'T ENTER ANYMORE CODES! -_-

Call Tracfone/Net10 tech support, and have them unlock it for you.

That's an anti-fraud feature. If you continue to enter random codes, it's meant to FRY the SIM card.

[sassygur15]

Love it 10.00

[ZombiesAnnihilation]

Hi i just got this phone today i don't know how to protect my cell phone from the recordings i have record i need help please!

[lyoko1994]

does anybody know how to use the videos on youtube when you go on the web with this phone ? And when you record a song can you use it for a ringtone ?

[Smilezofdoom]

Aggh the music is stuck in my head!!

[djyaken]

hi that phone has wifi and full internet acces?

[dezziraybyfield]

Is It Really Small

[PeterjohnsonLAWL]

Just got this phone through tracfone, I broke my last trackfone, so I called them up when I got this phone, it took them a total of 4mins to transfer my left over minutes and days of service, and guess what? no contract. I fucking love tracfone.

[jbasketballgirl16]

@DemonXtar if your computer doesnt have bluetooth, you need a usb data cable or a microsd card with adapter

[LE550N]

can i use my free minutes tracfon sim card and use it whit this phone? because i dont like the free phone they gave me yea the free minutes are great but a better phone would be awesome ( goverment free phone samsung )

[dkapinga]

@LE550N You might have to call Tracfone and ask them about this.

[lleirrad]

Thumbs up if you recently seen this phone available at Family Dollar for $50.00 & Radio Shack for 39.99!

[mindfoself]

Is the video capture any good?

[jbasketballgirl16]

@mindfoself its decent, but obviously an iPod nano or iTouch does it better.

[oWONTEKo]

@dannyboy21623 you need to put them on a microSD card. you have to put on mp3 files. You can find lots of free mp3 files on the internet to test it.

[mcflurry50]

just get virgin mobile. it has a much better plan and better phones. thumbs up so let people can see

[falcopunch94]

@mcflurry50 its always cool to see someone like you ask for thumbs up and not get any, owned

[vista120]

Okay, im not really on a budget here, i have some crappy TracFone, i just bought it maybe 2 days ago, i hate it. I want a new one, should i get this phone or the Motorola EX124G? And can i just switch SIM cards and continue my minutes? And is there a plan/contract thingy where i can just buy unlimited Texting and talking for 30 days? If so how much is it? And sorry for the questions, im new to TracFone, being a college student doesnt help.

[jbasketballgirl16]

@vista120 from what ive seen and heard, the motorola ex124g has a reeeaaaalllllyyyy bad touchscreen. watch this user's review of the motorola ex124g and in the comments, the user says that the lg800g is better. i have this phone so please watch my review.

[MrDC5354]

Yea I hope in the future they will but thanks for answering my question

[MrDC5354]

Ok just asking because Ian looking for a phone from tracfone that can do that

[oWONTEKo]

@MrDC5354 Yeah they don't have any phones with WiFi.

[surrynet]

@oWONTEKo They most certainly do have phones that have wifi. Check out the Net 10 LG Optimus Net Android Prepaid Cell Phone. You can get the phone at walmart for around $149.00

[MrDC5354]

Is it possablie for this phone to give off wifi

[oWONTEKo]

@MrDC5354 This phone has no WiFi sorry.

[sportsboycomedy75]

@oWONTEKo do u need wifi for like the internet?

[supersonicsaiyan1]

@oWONTEKo if it has no wifi, how do you get apps and ringtones?

[MrAnderson528]

@MrDC5354 Give off wifi? lol

[NextBlazeEx]

@MrAnderson528 wifi hotspot that is what he means

[edmmman]

Which is better this or the motorola ex124g?

[jbasketballgirl16]

@edmmman this. look at the review of the ex124g on this user's channel. the user commented that the lg800g is better. please check out my review on this phone

[edmmman]

@jbasketballgirl16 You're right the LG800G is better. :-)

[URINEMEWHA]

how do u add songs to this

[oWONTEKo]

@URINEMEWHA put them on the SD-card

[stickwalker]

This video would be much better if you turned off the music and talked your way through it.

That way you could tell us what you are opening up in and what you are doing with the phone.

Just my two cents..

[bleedingredrose3]

its...its...beautiful O.o

[IfHelloKittyWasEmo]

Update 2011

Now they are selling this phone again.if don't believe me go on tracfone.com

[cocabacon1134]

idk about this phone, I have other options. But if i had a choice it would be a 75% that i'd get this phone.

[traviscockstrongfamb]

how can you get free airtime

[millapeed1]

they are selling them at walmart, i almost got one.

[rachet529]

Is the lg500g good.I was going to get it.plus it has a music player

[supernintendo98]

i saw that its not on tracfone anymore, its on net 10

[derekjun2008]

They're having problem with the SMS.



[LosAngeles902101]

DONT BUY THIS PHONE IT SUCKS!!!!

[MrYASHI0]

dos it come with minutes

[paradisemiles232]

@MrYASHI0 no

[paradisemiles232]

anybody respond i need to kno if you have to hav a pc in order to dowload music to this fone frm umnet.com

[Lalalandgirl5611]

Where did u get this phone i cant find it at walmart but i havrnt checked target yet

[oWONTEKo]

@Lalalandgirl5611 they had some problems with this phone, it may be hard to find it as I think it was recalled.

[counkev]

@oWONTEKo Yea I think the phone was recalled buy I see them for sale online and I hear if you buy this phone for like ($40.00) and if you call Tracfone they will send you the EX124G ($80.00). I want to do that but I think it is a just a hassle with shipping and everything.

[Jwalker8998]

@oWONTEKo aw mann! i just ordered it on net 10 too ! D:

[paradisemiles232]

@Lalalandgirl5611 i just got mine yesterday at walmart they also have it at best buy and target 

[Crazysmiter1]

@Lalalandgirl5611 Bestbuy still sells it

[cellomoon]

@Lalalandgirl5611 They have it at Target but It is cheeper at amazon.com Target: 49.99 $ Amazon: 34.99$ It has some Texting problems so Tracfone took it off their Website. But I think you can call customer service and they will hopefully fix your texting problems if you even have any. I just don't like their customer service because they are hard to understand and I keep going "what??" one time they even got mad at me and hung up!

[sugadew]

chat style messaging.....??????



[paradisemiles232]

two questions 1 can I use regular earphones and 2 where is the port for them

[oWONTEKo]

@paradisemiles232 yes, and at the top of the phone.

[oWONTEKo]

@oWONTEKo not that I have seen.

[paradisemiles232]

sorry to keep buggin you but if i get this by net10 will my web browsing be slower than if i got it with tracfone

[oWONTEKo]

@paradisemiles232 it will be the same as they use the same network.

[ihatesunlight54]

@oWONTEKo it still uses munites for the mobile web correct?



[oWONTEKo]

@ihatesunlight54 i believe so.

[menofat1]

its true tracfone stopped selling it because some of the lg 800g's had problems with texting were they couldnt recieve or send texts but if u get an 800g and the texting doesnt work they will send u a motorola ex124g or whatever it called, i forgot, for free.

[paradisemiles232]

could i get ANGRY BIRDS as an app for this fone yes or no

[oWONTEKo]

@paradisemiles232 Not that we know of.

[paradisemiles232]

which fone would u prefer this one or the Motorola EX124G

[oWONTEKo]

@paradisemiles232 I think this one is far better, it just feels better to use.

[paradisemiles232]

this music is so groovie



[SkyWalkerNoah]

I had the samsung t401g and the lg 900g and I WANTED this 1 but I went on ebay and found a lg rumor touch with virgin mobile for 50$ so idgaf bout this fone anymore lol and there plans suck the 25$ a month plan for unlimted text web and 300 talk min is great its better than there's it 750 mins and text is 1 min WTF

[BelieveindaBieber]

Did you know that they make silicone and hard cover cases for this phone now?? it is pretty amazing, that people are catching on :)

[atownbopsosama]

Did you guys know that they took away this phone and no one can buy it because there was to many problems?? Yeah, I went to buy it last night but it was gone. We called TracFone and they took it away because there was TOO many problems and it wasnot a good phone. Thumbs up to let everyone know.

[oWONTEKo]

@atownbopsosama I haven't heard anything about that, I believe it is still be sold. What have you heard?

[atownbopsosama]

[judd6200]

@oWONTEKo yes 39.99 at FRED'S

[Tuckle]

@atownbopsosama Oh wow, it is off the Tracfone site, but still at Target. I guess I am glad I did not get it?

[atownbopsosama]

@Tuckle yeah, I guess you should be glad you dudn't get it because people said there was just WAY to many problems and that they didn't like it. So what I got was a LG500G. I'm glad I got that instead of the LG800G

[paradisemiles232]

@atownbopsosama listen osama asssssssshhhhholllllleeeee i plan to get this phone it is still sold by net10 at target smart ass terrorist

[oWONTEKo]

@bigdaddykurt thank you :)

[MrSean1022]

[malikawesomemartin12]

how much was it?

[oWONTEKo]

@malikawesomemartin12 like $30

[TheJokerfan95]

can it play youtube vids?

[oWONTEKo]

@TheJokerfan95 technically it is possible, but the phone lacks a connection fast enough to watch them. If anyone has found they can, let us know...

[21boxhead]

how is the touch response? smooth like the iphone or slow?

[oWONTEKo]

@21boxhead fast but not very accurate.

[leekrumnow80]

does it have a sims card

[oWONTEKo]

@leekrumnow80 yes it does.

[ReiMidorikawa]

How difficult is texting on this phone? Have you typed on an Iphone/Itouch? If so, is the typing comparable?

[thestineyshow]

I am getting this phone in 2 weeks and cannot wait, it looks awesome :)

[superfishman123]

[coco4561000]

[LosAngeles902101]

do you know how to set the phone on vibrate so that I dont have to keep looking at the phone to check for txts?

[Danceforeverx201]

@oWONTEKo does this phone have a plastic or glass screen, and does it have a plastic or metal backing? (I assume it's all plastic since it's from tracfone but I hope not) please get back to me :) thanks

[oWONTEKo]

@Danceforeverx201 Plastic backing, the screen appears to be glass underneath and but the sensor skin over the glass is a thin plastic.

[rachelsOne]

@Danceforeverx201 Jesus Christ can't you find out for yourself?
