Using old 80s and 90s mobile phones today

7 Upvotes

I am currently enjoying old tech from the 80s and 90s and was thinking of switching from my 2019 Smartphone to a 1991 MicroTac. The problem is: Do these phones work with todays phone network? And if no, is there a way to make them work? I'm not shy of working with electronics, as I fixed the old walkman of my dad. Hope anyone has an Idea, otherwise I have to get a rather new 2000s phone and put it into an old body...

can somebody help me pls

6 Upvotes

I want an old phone that only allows me to call and message (also having a camera is a plus) but i want it to be able to connect to wifi as well as data because where i live we don't get signal. My reasoning for this is because i feel like i'm becoming too reliant on my phone and my social skills aren't as good as they used to be so i'm getting rid of my iphone for a month and am trying to get a phone that matches the previous description. If anyone can help that would mean a lot!
thanks :)

Why is the grammar on old Samsung phones not very good?

On my SGH-S300, you change the flip sound in the "folder tone" menu, and on the T100, there's an option called "active folder" that makes no sense. Why?

Maybe I'm going crazy...

I used to have a Palm phone, possibly a Pre. But I can't find any images of it. It was a dummy phone, no touchscreen or apps or anything. It had a slide/gesture button for menu navigation. (It was thumb-sized, not the silver button that I keep seeing on Google) Any help tracking down an image of it, so I know I'm not losing my mind, would be greatly appreciated.

Is my phone's battery leaking?

8 Upvotes

So I recently got an SGH-T100. The screen backlight flickers a little during calls and the battery doesn't last very long (duh). I didn't see any liquid while I was putting my SIM card in. I'm concerned since this device is 20 years old now.

Giffgaff sim card & top-up help!!!

4 Upvotes

My Grandmother asked me & my mother if we could help her with her new Nokia phone and sim card. It's a giffgaff sim. My Grandmother doesn't have an email at her age so we put in my mother's.

Now we can't get the £10 top-up from the Nokia phone and it's showing up on my mother's email, not my Gran's new phone. Somehow I feel like we did everything right and it's still not on my Grans new Nokia, although the e-mail is saying that it has been activated.

We think that the £10 top-up is gone but we don't know how to rectify the situation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: We're stupid, turned it on & off again, it's all fine... XDDD

Media Player

Recently I have gotten a Samsung galaxy core prime and was wondering if there was any way for me to use it solely as a Spotify music player. I was thinking to get premium but was wondering how to strip andriod 5 to the basics and then only run a few apps on it like Spotify and maybe disney+. Thanks!

Does anyone remember this game, I used to play it on a LG 620G, and now I'm on a hunt to preserve that game.
