You’re best bet for a new battery is to look on eBay or just buy a new phone if you have a cheaper model. You shouldn’t keep the phone plugged in all the time, that’s probably what killed your battery.

If you kept active service you will have the same number. If not, it depends after 2.5 months you will probably be issued a new number.

My straighttalk phone lasted for 2 1/2 months and the battery went completely dead. Wouldn’t take a charge.

Where do I get another bettery?

How do I keep it from going permanently dead? (I kept the phone charged)

Will I still have the same phone number?

I’m going traveling again in a few months.

Unlock the phone by hitting the left soft key and the Ok button then navigate to the prepaid menu.

I have gmail and used in on my old LG flip phone that served me well for more than a year. When I switched to the Samsung $98 phone (LG was $39) I can sign in to google mail and I can download the app. Can’t get in through web direct. I was easily able to check my e-mail Gmail&yahoo, but I am stranded with the new phone. LG screen is dark (broken switch on hinge) or I’d switch back.

You need to put the card in your phone first and let it read it then take it out and it should work after that. I did and had the same problem.

Hi Claudia. I’m pretty much the same here. A majority of what I do is text and calling a few times per week.

Straight Talk does offer international calling though it appears to be a dial through setup. https://www.straighttalkild.com/straighttalk/straighttalk.asp

I also own this phone and yeah it does the work. I mean all i do is text and talk so it’s good for me. However in all these months i have been using the service i have a question why does straighttalk not offer international calling? I though they were part of a big international company? Aside from that the service has not failed me, descent reception for what i pay, so no complaints.
