Trading phones? (Keeping current plan)
TheCheapGamer
Newbie

Long story short, I broke my Droid X screen, bought an iPhone 4S a few months back.

Now that I see the Galaxy S3, I want it.
If all goes right, I'll trade for one.


I have a few questions though...
Does my unlimited plan I kept apply to 4G?
Do warranties transfer?

Is Verizon going to care if I change out phones? (Although I'm pretty sure I did this before while still under my last contract)

Thanks.

Does my unlimited plan I kept apply to 4G?  At this point in time, yes.  That policy can change at any time though.
Do warranties transfer? No.

(Although I'm pretty sure I did this before while still under my last contract) No - you can activate any Verizon branded phone with a clear ESN (meaning it's not active on another line or reported as lost or stolen, or has an outstanding balance form the last owner) on your line.  Your contract terms depend on the phone you purchased at a discount; that doesn't necessarily have to be the one active on your line.

Thanks.
