I activated a Samsung galaxy precedent and kept my phone number. Same provider, and it is a straight phone. The only problem I am having is receiving phone call. Friends say that it rings once and straight to voice mail. I am not computer nor droid savvy. I don't have another phone to call straight talk and they cant walk me though it with me on this one. I went though the call settings and the volume is up and everything. As far as I know I am receiving text ok. Can someone please help out this old lady that wishes she still had a rotary phone. They were not confusing at all. This new phone is gonna take a lot of learning for me.
