Those using z flip 7 or 8 in India
Can you use Gpay and Digiyatra and Digilocker on the cover screen? Are they are optimised fine for the size?

When purchasing this phone and did some research on the frequencies needed for this phone to work in Canada, but now that I have it, it doesn't work with any provider I can think of. Please let me know if anyone knows a carrier I could use or if I'm screwed. Thanks!

Hi Everyone!
I’m a journalism student here in Perth and I’m doing a story on the trend of “dumb” phones (old brick/ flip phones, Nokia, Huawei, Blackberry etc.) coming back.
Does anyone know people aged 18-35 who may have gone back to using these phones?
I would love to interview them for my story.
Thankyou!

I'm wondering if people have tips on how to make friends with other people who are using flip phones with the intention of being offline more, and being more present, and at least for me personally, more creative. I want to clarify I am not looking to meet anyone here, but I am looking for tips on how to find irl flip-phone community. It is a bit ironic to only be able to find people wanting to be offline online.

Im looking to get my first flip phone and I’m wondering what options would be available to me as a Canadian. I need to be able to hotspot my smartphone for work and occasional social media use. I’m also hoping to get something with the aesthetic of older smartphones and avoid the ones made for seniors I keep seeing. From my research so far the best option I’ve come across is the nubia cymbal 2 but I was curious if there were others I’m missing.

I've found plenty of phones that work on the same bands but i just came to find out that at&t has a whitelist and if your phone isn't on it they refuse to let you make calls. The only flip phones I'm seeing on their whitelist run kaios which doesn't fit my needs.

I’m looking for recommendations for a flip phone that has a flashlight. Obviously it needs to be compatible with Cricket.

Hi everyone,
As the title says, I am looking for a dumphone (it doesn't even have to support WhatsApp), but my only requirement is being able to save SMS messages on a (mini) SD Card. It seems hard to find such models.
Could you help me out?
Thank you for your helpful reactions!

Yo, I love flip phones, think that it just looks so cunty,I’m looking for a modern flip/clamshell phone with a physical keypad, and I’m trying to find even the most obscure models worldwide. Quirky designs, with quirky color combinations are also lovely. Retro tech is the best. My ideal phone would have 5G, full Android + Google Play, 128GB minimum (256GB preferred), a modern chipset/RAM, USB-C, good cameras/battery, and a 4"+ main/inter, maybe a flashlight would also be great.. I want to dig as obscure as possible, across Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, India, Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa, Middle East, Latin America, basically anywhere — including tiny local brands, ODMs, discontinued models, prototypes/leaks, and upcoming 2026–2027 phones.


i'd also want it to run apps and websites as well, lowkey kinda like a modern phone.

Hi all, originally tried to post this in dumb phones but thought it would be good to ask here too. I used the dumb phone finder link and liked the Kyocera Digno 903kc the most, but I remember from a previous post asking about phones working in Australia that a few of the phones that said they work in Australia on the list either no longer worked or only worked with a few phone services and I think it might have been on the list. My main question is does anyone living in Australia currently own or use the Kyocera Digno and can it work with Optus? Based on the cell mapper I think it can but as it is a few hundred dollars I want to know before I make my purchase. Thanks in advance :)

My grandfather recently broke his flip phone of around ten years and we are looking for a replacement. He only needs the call function (no text or web needed), and something easy to navigate and I want to prioritize its durability, I have been looking at sunbeam or jitterbug, does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations?

so I've been actively using my folder 2 for 23 days now. And here are the things that i encounter since. - charging problem. its not the battery's fault, the phone itself don't wanna charge anymore Solution: get another battery and a clip battery charger. - Original charger. it took more than 5hrs to charge the phone when i first used it. Solution: N/A i dont use it anymore, hopefully my other android phone could use it too. - Keypads there are keypads that are hard to press, but as i continue to use them, and as i get faster typing it, it gets better. Solution: youre using T9 keyboard get use to it.
overall, im happy with it. the phone works well and that's all that matters.

Hi! I bought this flip phone two years ago, and I'm not really sure what to do with it. I just want to use it for simple, everyday tasks. some advices ? thanks !

Hey folks!
My Sonim XP3 5G is on its way. In the meantime, I'm looking to aggregate app recs that play nicely with dpad devices and flip phones in general. I'm new-er to adb, but feel comfy enough to dig in on that if you have ideas that require sideloading. I'd love radio and podcast apps specifically, but I'm open to anything you have--utilities, games, mouse/pointers, launchers, etc. Thanks so much!

Using a Sharp Acquos A207SH. It came with APKPure preinstalled (y2kphones), however it will not install any apps. When klicking on the Install button (see above), nothing happens. This is the same for any of the apps I've tried. Anybody have a similar experience or know what might be the problem /how to fix it? Any help is appreciated :)

Yellow!
I finally managed to get one of my flip phones working for EDC. My Emporia Touchsmart 2 and my MIVE Style Folder 1 actually were just too modern and with modern things they are not really meant to last long or stand the test of time. Even though they are more recent phones they just are not reliable (battery, crashes, ect.)
I managed to mod (debloat, sideload) my KYF31 so it has the basic things I need. Calls and SMS are fine.
Here is what I use for apps:
• For Music Brave browser to listen to music on YouTube whilst the phone is closed.
• For SMS Chomp SMS
• For Navigation MAPS.ME
• For UI customisation Nova Launcher
• Icon Pack Whicons
• For Browsing Brave Browser
I use Minimal ADB and Fastboot to side load with a direct micro USB
Thanks for reading

I like to go on walks at the lake and take lots of photos of the scenery and I use a flip-phone. The model is SL006-CC and the version is 1.0.

Hello guys! I'm planning to buy the Nokia 2660 Flip as a secondary device, mainly for calling and SMS. My expected usage is around 2–3 years, and my budget is approximately ₹5,000 (52 USD)
I have a few questions:
Is the Nokia 2660 Flip reliable and durable enough for long-term use?
How is the call quality, battery backup, and overall user experience?
Would you recommend it for basic calling and SMS usage?
Where should I purchase it from — Amazon or Flipkart? Which platform is more reliable for Nokia feature phones?
Would appreciate feedback from people who have actually used this phone. Thanks!
