post by user:

Upgraded to iOS 15.2.1 and checked for Parts and Service History under Settings > General > About. As there was no Parts and Service History, the battery is not a replacement. Any battery replacement, whether genuine Apple or third-party, would show up in the history.

For XRs (unlike 12s or 13s), screen replacements will not show up in the history. A visual examination of my XR doesn't show any obvious evidence of screen replacement.


Posted by another user, FYI: For those who are wondering if you want to do a return, Yes you do have to pay return shipping if it was delivered to you. If you refuse the package you will not have to pay return shipping. For returning, USPS(Postal Service) First Class with tracking or Priority mail recommended but UPS and Fedex should work as well. (ALWAYS make sure you get tracking on your package or it can complicate your return and or cause a return to "have no evidence of arriving")

(Updated)Total Wireless/Tracfone brand Unlock Policy:

For Customers with Apple devices:

- TracFone will automatically unlock the device when it becomes eligible for unlocking.

- For all Apple devices activated with TracFone prior(Before) November 23, 2021, the device will be automatically unlocked after 12 months of active TracFone service.

- For Apple devices activated with new TracFone service on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, the device will be automatically unlocked 60 days after activation in the absence of an indication of fraud.


For Customers with non-Apple(ie: Google Android/other devices) devices

- TracFone will provide an unlocking code to customers who request unlocking, provided they meet the following conditions:

- If the TracFone device was activated with TracFone service prior to November 23, 2021, then the device must have been active on TracFone Service for no fewer than 12 months with Service Plans redeemed in no fewer than 12 months, and not have had their telephone number recycled or ported.

- If the TracFone device was activated with new service on the Verizon network on or after November 23, 2021, then at least 60 days must have elapsed since the device was activated.

- The device must be in working condition.

- The device has not been reported stolen or lost, and there are no indicators of fraud.


Deployed Military Personnel:

- If you are a TracFone customer in the military and receive relocation orders outside of the TracFone Coverage Area, we will unlock your device at your request, even during the applicable lock period following the activation of your device.

- All other eligibility criteria apply to TracFone's customers who are deployed military personnel.

- Customers are eligible for this program only once every twelve months.

**Note: Not every device unlocked from Tracfone/Tracfone brands are 100% compatible with other carriers(iPhones typically but not always being an exception). Make sure and check with people here and or Tracfone for info.

Trade-in Options (From asianman35, Post 1156):
1. trade in to best buy for $190 gift card
2. trade in to apple for $200 gift card
3. trade in to gamestop for $210 credit or $168 cash
4. use to trade in with your carrier (sprint seems to be a great deal right now)
5. activate and hope that it unlocks after 60 days? some people are saying this wont happen since these have been activated on totalwireless already (hence theyre refurbs).

Your comment cannot be blank.

WARNING: I have been trying to get Total to release my sons cell number to transfer to another carrier since mid-December 2021. We finally gave up and activated his phone with another carrier and got a new number. Several emails, phone calls, and chat sessions have gotten me nowhere, no real person ever returns the call and messages to cancel the service are not fulfilled. I have resorted to deciding to just report the charges as fraud on my credit card and documented the contact attempts. If you want to keep your number, I'd stay away from them. The service was marginally okay for a teenager for the price but personally I would have been very upset to have to change my number. The service is still active and not cancelled.
Return shipping is free if you pay via Paypal.
I do see many people asking about unlocking policy.

Well as per the new policy after take over from Verizon in November,Tracphone has updated its unlocking policy for apple devices to be 60 days post activation if activated after Nov 23rd-2021

That said,I have reached to multiple customer care rep and have even called and the fact that it gets unlocked after 60 days is something they all echoed but there was difference on if it active service or just first month of activation.There is no proven way until Jan 23rd to see when this first set of deals got launched to see how it goes.

The unlocking policy does mention it will automatically unlock after 60 days - But if some one or most of the folks trading in should not have a problem .If you plan to keep this phone for a longer run and use it I would activate the service for the second month to avoid any hassle in pushing Customer rep to unlock .As i did call out we will have to wait to see how it actually works.Its an additional $20-$22 to get some total wireless prepadi cards on sale or deals.

In the worst case if this not does not get honored we can still encash for trade in or other options to sell this for cash.

Any one with still having doubts on the unlock policy can contact customer care for their satisfaction before they jump in - however as i mentioned its more of waiting game as I did realize it was not consistent reply.

The Xrs might be the ones that got returned by people from previous deal and got too beat up ones. Don't forget that the imei will be also in the label outside the box so it's possible to check the age of the phone without opening the box (you still won't see the physical condition but if it's old age the chance that it will have replacement parts is much higher).

I see they have added a new set of models. As per the customer rep these go through reprogramming and inspection. Most of the phone folks received had Apple warranty and looked like new. There are some who had bad experiences but we cannot generalize it. Those who want to try it this is still there

I got a refurb from totalwireless once and it was bad... If I had to grade it myself it would have to be a C.

The side aluminum frame was all scratched up and the battery health was 85%. Def. was not worth it...

Might be worth the risk for some, but personally I'd get a refurb of a newer phone or a new older model phone than this.

File an FCC complaint. That gets their attention.

Choose number portability.

Huh? I thought you initiate the port from your new carrier and there's nothing your old carrier has to do as long as you have your security code or what not.

I never once had to ask the old carrier to "release" the number.
