I don't plan on using the phone for actual cell service, so unlocking is not necessary. I just want a decent android device to use. Thanks in advance!
Update: I ordered a number for $5 from numberbarn, enabled SMS on it, then was able to port it to order this Motorola Edge for free + $55 the plan. Thanks FabulousStranger526!

1.) Unlocked GV number for $3 2.) Ordered free phone with $55 plan using unlocked GV number for port-in 3.) When phone arrived, activated IMEI on Total website, selecting get a new number instead of importing GV number
I am able to make calls & receive texts with the new number, and my GV account still has the same number, even though I left it unlocked. Is there a reason more people aren't using this method, will this somehow interfere with the phone being unlocked after 60 days? Thanks for any insight & apologies for any ignorance.

That means that the phones will never be unlocked, unless one goes on $55 plan for 2 months.
Any idea if the plan can be downgraded?

Classic bait and switch from Total Wireless
