    I have a LG K8V that sad was on page plus which I understand uses verizon networks. With the next-gen settings it works fine other than I can’t receive pictures with my normal text messaging service. I didn’t have that problem with my first cheap ZTE but I’m in a fringe area and like AT&T and the LG receives a better signal for normal cell service or wireless internet. I have no problem going on line or anything else. Any thoughts?

  4. Haley

    I too am experiencing issues Very similar to Timothys situation. I purchased a Verizon s7 from a friend. after calling at&t customer service to confirm its compatible and verify it will infact work after installing my at&t sim which It does work for the most part. My calls, internet, and text msging works. My only issue is it will NOT allow me to send picture messaging.. But I do receive them without a problem..
