    Sim Card Phones

    My phone is a LG Thrive which is rooted and unlocked and uses a T-Mobile pre-paid sim. I would like to get a used larger screen phone (Android)(~ 4.3" screen) which can use a pre-paid sim. I would like a SD slot and something around 1ghz processor. Any suggestions would be helpful.

    I don't know if this is a realistic request but when I see an App that I would like to try it's hard to know if it requires a data connection. I have a "Go Phone" and don't have one. I would like to see ICONs placed in the threads indicating if an APP requires a DATA link or if it works by way...

I have car/hand GPSs to do navigation. I...
