I have a LG flip phone using prepaid Tracfone. It's NOT a smartphone, just a basic phone for calls, texts, and has a basic browser built in. I dont really want or need a smartphone. But I used to use the browser to get weather reports and a few other basic online things.
Several months ago, the browser just began rejecting most websites, even weather.com. All I get are error messages. Bu I know it still works for some stuff, for example I can still access Google. I believe the phone needs a browser upgrade. I called Tracfone but their customer service it terrible. I got some foreign person who could barely speak english, and did not understand my problem. After wasting close to an hour, nothing was solved. But Tracfone is affordable, so I stick with it. I have a landline anyhow, but when I'm away from home, I need a cell.
I cant find anything about upgrading it using google. Maybe one of you knows a place to get upgrades. If not, I either have to live with it as-is, or buy a newer phone. These phones are only $25 to $40, but retyping my whole addressbook is something I prefer to avoid, when I have around 200 names in it.
Thanks in advance.
