This too... We’ve donated old cellphones in the past.

Some shelters accept old phones to give to those housed in the shelter for use in case of emergencies. My local Domestic Violence shelter accepts old phones that is how I know. The phones need to be functional of course. Donna I’ve got a 5S that I’m using for my second business line. I grabbed it off of eBay for something like $130 at the time. I did change the battery a few months ago since it was dropping from 90% to 20% almost in the blink of an eye (exaggerating just a little), but the camera doesn’t work for scanning, the volume up button is now touchy and touch ID doesn’t want to work. But it’s still chugging along for incoming and outgoing calls and everything else. I pay between $10 and $19 a month with my MVNO for this line. I only have a couple of extra non-native apps on it like Pandora, MLB @Bat, the Ultra Trainer app for workout timers, etc. Even if I wanted to consider seling it, it would probably not be worth it. Maybe $50 cash on Craigslist, but who wants to go through that hassle? I’ll use this bad boy until it finally gives up the ghost or if I find its performance with iOS 12 is too slow, then maybe just keep it for streaming music on my home wifi and workout/food timers.

Maybe he can upgrade to a 4S in a year or two *smile*. I think if he upgraded to an iPhone 8 or iPhone X it would be too much of a shock for him.

I know of a blind man in Kentucky who is still hanging on to an iPhone 4. ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill Outman <mailto:wout...@earthlink.net> To: viphone@googlegroups.com <mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Friday, May 11, 2018 10:39 AM Subject: Disposing of my old iPhone 5S Good day. I have my new 8 Plus and am going through some shakedown with it. I still have to deal with some settings issues and need to learn the new features I have. It appears all the data transferred successfully. Now what I need is a way to dispose of my old 5S, which is possibly salvageable for someone needing an old phone, though it has some broken parts. I have no idea how best to go about taking care of this, and would like to bring back some cash I can use for other expenses, if possible. Please advise me on a good course of action.
