How to Use an Android Phone Without a Two Year Contract
You can use an Android phone without having to be on a two-year contract and without having to pay for an expensive data plan. The Benefits Inexpensive monthly cost for an Android phone. The Drawbacks You have to pay more to buy a phone outright. You don't get as much data. No nights/weekends. The Steps Purchase a Verizon Android phone without a contract. I suggest getting a used one on an auction website or find one on a classified ads website. Register with PagePlusCellular . Sign up for a prepaid plan that fits your needs. (There are many pricing options available, but there is no yearly contract.) As far as I know, PagePlus doesn't officially provide support for people who use Android phones on their service, but I have used successfully used the following with their service: Droid 1, Droid Eris, Droid Incredible, Droid 2 and Samsung Fascinate. I was not able to get the HTC Thunderbolt (which is a 4G phone with a SIM card) to work on PagePlus.
