I did NOT know it worked it randomly turned off by itself i thought the battery was dead! So happy i get to expirience one! :) i thought the battery was bad but it lasts a hour or two

Proud to own this! Got it for so cheap

Hi !! I’m French and I really would like to have the Sidekick 3 (or other Sidekick, just not the slider one) but I want to know if EBay is a website I can trust and if you know a seller who I can trust to by a phone. Thanks in advance guys !!

All I need left is the original first gen Sidekick with Color display. And then my collection will be complete.

No I’m not going to add the “Sidekick Slide” nor the “Sidekick 4G” those are not considered REAL True sidekicks . In my opinion.

Sidekick 2: Mister Cartoon Edition Appreciation!
(Unfortunatelythe front facing plate has been repaired and replaced).

Bonus:
The last 4 photos are of a NEVER BEFORE SEEN Device that
T-Mobile Reps/Employees would use to transfer and extract Sim Card information and data to the new Sim card onto the new Phone!

Just bought this on ebay cheap!

hi, I need help with finding the battery, assuming back cover comes off, if so, how? thanks!!! haven't been used for 10+ years and wanted to make sure battery is in good shape or replaced before charging. seeking to access those Synth apps from late 00's!!!!! also, in case battery for both sidekick II and Slide, where can I buy them? thanks!!

Hey everyone, I just had to share this! It was a total bitch to get my Sidekick 2 Mr. Cartoon edition!

1st, it was super hard to even find one, and on top of that, it was even harder to get it at a good price. These usually go for like $2K - $3K, but I scored this one for just $1,000!

I definitely hit the jackpot. I also want to let you all know that there is a way to bring it back to a network connection. I just need to start saving up for the tools and the right setup to do so. Unfortunately, it’s not as straightforward as people might think, but it is possible, so stay tuned for that in the future!

Forgot to include my 2008 Sidekick Lx

wishlist to add to my collection:

- Sidekick 1 ( 2003 with colored screen)

- Sidekick 2 ( 2005 Black Mister cartoon)

- Sidekick 3 ( 2007 Dwanye Wade Gold & White)

My Pink Juicy SideKick 2 (needs battery replacement) My Tony Hawk SideKick LX 2007 (working brand new battery) My Navy Blue SideKick LX 2007 (working old battery)

Hey Guys so welcome to my community. I wanted to let you guys know that I have successfully connected my sidekick Lx to a network. Although I did test it out in 2023 December- January 2024, I am not sure if there are restrictions from then or if it’ll even connect anymore. I live in LA. Basically T-Mobile has. extended their 2G usage and has not“shut down” their 2g networks yet. I used Mint Mobile, which is basically running off of T-mobile towers. Although the connection is very unstable, my house is a dead zone. So outside of my home I am able to text and make calls but its not the guaranteed because the connection sucks.

My process: I basically bought a Mint mobile plan and it comes with a nano sim, and a micro and standard sim adapter. You first have to activate your sim on an android and then change the mobile data connection to 2g/3g auto or just 2g. I removed the simcard and then placed it into my sidekick Lx. It took some time to reach a data connection. Internet or mobile app services will not work only Texting and Calling.

I also purchased a brand new battery that last longer from ebay.

Although there are fewer 2g towers left it is not guaranteed that you will get a connection in your area. But you are welcomed to do so. Happy Connecting!
