I used my ID once and it never let me use it again for another deal, it seems the ID quota is only one.

Reps to who can tell me the best way to get a new phone number to port in for this deal.

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!

Can this TW phone be used by Visible or Tracfone without unlocking? And if you use this TW phone on a Visible plan for 60 days, will it be unlocked by Visible or Verizon? Thanks!
I don't know about Visible. This TW phone can be used with TF without unlocking, but you will need to use a BYOP SIM with it, and TF won't unlock a BYOP phone. If you ask a TF rep to rebrand it as a TF phone (removing its SIM number/IMEI from TW database then add them to TF database) then TF will unlock it after 60 days of paid service.

How hard to do the rebranding: "ask a TF rep to rebrand it as a TF phone (removing its SIM number/IMEI from TW database then add them to TF database)"? Why TF rep would do that for us? Is it a common practice or does it depends on the rep?
Thanks again.

Definitely depends on the rep, some automatically say no and you have to keep trying til you get someone that will help. Be aware the plan that you had to purchase with the phone will not transfer if you rebrand.

It's a common practice although you might get a new, poorly trained rep who doesn't know how to do it. Why do TF reps do it for us? Basically TW, ST, TF, Net10, etc are sub-brands of TF, they will get your business regardless of which sub-brand the phone is used with, although some sub-brands have cheaper plans than others.

This one is way better than G Power. This phone is the high end version of the Motorola phone. It has a POLED screen compared to the LCD screen from the G Power version.
But cpu - 7s is even slower than snapdragon 865 which was used for s20 more than 5 years ago ...

Can, and SHOULD be disabled. You never want to use storage as ram, it's just a bad idea all around and will slow down your phone.
It's standard thing for Android as all Linux systems use swap and it doesn't slow ur phone

If they rebrand from Total to TF, what would be the cheapest TF plan for 60 days to fulfill unlocking?

It's fine for most people. Still have fast RAM and adequate I/O performance. The main issue is that the 7s is inefficient, and that's where you see poor drain compared to other midrange chips. The Edge has much worse battery than my S23U, despite comparable capacity.

You can go here and check out the TF plans: https://www.tracfone.com/phone-service-plans
The cheapest is the $15/month for 30 days of service, Unlimited Talk/text, 1GB per month. TF plans are for people who don't use much data. If you do a lot of streaming, TF is not a good choice.

I have the same question. I activated in February and now my phone is still unlocked. I spoke to their customer care and they said I need to do 2 months of service. Can anyone confirm ? Thanks.
