Description

The listing, HTC G1 DREAM CELL PHONE has ended.

I won this phone in Jan of this year, this was the original listing--
G1 phone No battery Takes sim card. Just the phone Working very well Jailbroken and unlocked for any network. White in color.
------------------------------------------------------------
After receiving this phone, I had to buy not only the battery. but also a charger, usb data cord, and back cover. After all that I found that the phone wasn't unlocked.. I've waited 6 months for the original seller to send me the money for shipping to send this phone back after receiving a refund on my credits. KevinListia has told me I can now list it. A couple days ago I came across an AT&T SIM card. The phone accepts this card. When I put my Longlines Wireless SIM card in the phone told me to put in an unlock code. I put a SIM card unlocker in the phone and was able to make and receive calls with my SIM card, but, my service provider wouldn't allow any texting with the unlocker.
Phone calls are very clear, the sound quality is fantastic. The touch screen works perfect and the scroll ball works just as well. For all the specs on the phone please go to this link---
http://www.phonedog.com/products/htc-g1/specs/

If the winner wishes I will leave the AT&T SIM card in the phone. If the credits go above 5000 I will even send the SIM card unlocker along with the phone. From what little I've used the phone I do believe you have to have a micro SD card to make the phone work.
This new charger and new USB data cord will be sent with the phone.
I will do my best to answer any and all questions regarding this phone. But please bear with me, it came to me with no instruction book, everything I've learned about this phone I found on the link I provided.

Does Us cellular use SIM cards? If they do this will work for you regardless of contract or prepay. And just to make sure I will send along the sim card unlocker with the phone. But this is a gsm phone and it does have to have a SIM card to work. Make sure your dads company uses the sim cards...

Someone asked if this will work with US Cellular... No it will not. I used to work for them. They are CDMA just like Verizon and Sprint, this will work with T Mobile and AT&T and perhaps some obscure provider I am unaware of that uses sim cards.

thank you THRISTE... I have offered my sim card unlocker to the winner of my auction if they wish to have it...And when I got the phone I called t-mobile to try and get the unlock code myself, but since I didn't have an account with them they refused to help me.. I can only assume other phone companies will do the same...

Wish I could give you a positive answer on that. When the phone turns on it says Tmoblile. So it should work quite well. Hope that helps and I'm sorry I don't have a positive answer for you

I have a question I have 2 cell phones........that we are no longer going to use.
We will no longer have them under our sprint contract.
Can I sell on Listia just as they are
I sure don't want to give to someone and be charged more money
already being charged to get out of a contract

If you own the phones and if the ESN is clear then I assume you can. I'm not sure how the contract phones work, I've always had prepay. If anyone has any suggestions we would really appreciate any advice for Takenoteofthis...

I do have an AT&T SIM card I can send along with the phone if the winner wants that. Other than that all you need is a micro SD card and you're all set to go... I'll even make sure the battery has a full charge before sending this phone out so it can be used as soon as the winner receives it...

Was this originally a TMobile phone? You said you had to put an unlocker in it to get it to work on AT&T's network so by default was it a TMobile phone? I am asking because I cannot NOT have texting enabled and right now the future of TMo and how the new owner will make provisions for all of the TMo enabled phones is uncertain so just wondering. Beautiful phone!!

I had to use the unlocked to get it to work with Longlines wireless. Longlines is the service ghat wouldn't allow me to text. The phone accepts the AT&T sim card I found. Also check out the comment bellow by sexypuhalo, lots of info there.

"that was from the original listing. the correct term in rooted. which just means that it can get the latest updates and software without cost", actually rooting allows you to do a number of things that the original maker (HTC) does not want you doing because they break the warranty, usually people will install a custom rom and overclock their phone after rooting and from the pictures your phone is running Cyanogen Mod.

well I don't know about the original owner, but I didn't overclock this phone. I was lucky to make phone calls... and yes it is running Cyanogen Mod... As you can tell I'm lucky to know how to use a cell phone at all.....Thank you for your info!!!
