A:AnswerSounds like you are not getting a good signal for sending MMS (group texts are sent via MMS). Try connecting to Wi-fi or waiting until you are within a reliable 3 or 4G signal.
A:AnswerNo, but there is an application in the Google Play store called, Smart Wifi. It will switch on your wifi signal when it determines that you are connected to a specific cell tower (at home) and then automatically turn on your wifi. This approach is better since it uses less battery power to monitor your location based upon cell towers vs using the GPS.
A:AnswerYes...I have no faith in the HTC products. I had a Thunderbolt and after 2 weeks I realized it was a piece of garbage, but I was locked into it for 18 months....thanks Verizon! This phone is great and I have had no battery issues at all. A good days use and I still have 70+% left.
A:AnswerCan't stop them. Some of these apps can be deleted to be stopped, but others are inherent to the phone and you are stuck with them. They should not be running down your battery anyway.

A:AnswerIf you buy the phone from any big box store, there most likely will be a contract or some sort of agreement required. Since you just want a phone to put the SIM card into, I would go to one of those discount phone shops and buy one there. Just call Verizon before you buy it with the IMEI number so they can verify it is clean.
A:AnswerWhen your contract is complete with Verizon you can do want you want with it...you can even use walmart just buy their Sim card..Verizon will tell you there is no unlocking their phones, just complete your contract and do what you want...you would have to change Sim cards
A:AnswerYes ... if you buy data from your ISP you can wirelessly connect your PC/Laptop/Tablet using the wireless Hotspot connection. The downside is that you must keep your cellphone connected to a power outlet as it drains the battery quickly.
