Hey! Only watched the first 4 minutes but in case you didn’t know: most android phones can be reset by getting into recovery mode, where you can wipe the phone completely. It differs from phone but you usually hold volume down and power at the same time, first volume down then both volume and power. Then you can use the volume buttons to scroll through the menu once it pops up and power to select. If you just see and android logo then you hold power and press volume up once to access the menu.
you can use an old sim card that dont even connect to a network. i read once that those phones need some of the computing power of the sim card.
Yk if you really think about it deeply, the reason some of these phones end up at goodwill are because the owners of the phones die
Damn
No kid
Yea I can imagine
This would be a good way to get a bunch of burner phones lol
This is so sad
I have always loved watching people unboxing phone lots! There's just this certain feeling to opening up these seemingly "obsolete" phones, and finding out they have a past on them. It's like being nostalgic for memories that aren't yours. Sometimes i wonder how the people in these pictures turned out, how are they doing in life nowadays, etc. Awesome video! Keep 'em up, especially these lots.
Thanks for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed! Planning to have plenty more lots like this in the future

Wow thanks for sharing this list, this is awesome 😎
@@SmokinSiliconpinn the comment
The phone at 3:10 is the one my grandma has. I'd place it around 2019-2022
@@firedragon-cute-13-nice13, Thanks for this info. I'm looking into it right now and it seems that the ZTE Z2336 was sold under a bunch of different names and colours, for example, the "Comsumer Celluar Link III" and the "Verve Snap". Are you able to confirm if your grandma exactly has the ZTE variant of the phone, or one of the other ones at the moment?
As for the year of the phone, the Z2336's FCC ID info seems to place it around 2022, so I'm entirely not sure if it was sold prior.
@@danielmcdonald9177 It's ZTE. I looked at the battery and it's ZTE branded.
Maybe that phone was used to shoot HUB footage and make homework
Something like that 😂
☻
@TeamUnstopable668 The smartphone duh
Ok why 😂
Can I have some of that "homework"
Imagine the corn phone was a guy who died in a car wreck because he was so addicted to looking at corn on his phone he did it while driving.
😂
😟
So he was coming and going at the same time? (sorry) XD
@@Wolfaroniget out
@@LoganSlager-qy3pi Bon voyage! XD
That one phone with the “corn” photos was likely a burner phone, and he donated it to get rid of evidence probably 😂
burner phone wouldn't have had internet access like this one did
That would be a good guess, but I honestly don’t think that’s what this was. This phone was definitely used by a grandpa (he took some selfies 😂😂) and I just think he didn’t know how to work things
@SmokinSilicon I have fixed many broken phones before (off ebay untested) and the majority have corn.. IM 12
@@TtechA-ml2judamn being traumatized by porn when you're 12?! WHEN YOU DIDNT EVEN EXPECT IT?! That's sad
@@Luna_moona457 And it doesn't end there. The texts, call records, and more usually have sad convros with people about not having money for stuff and people breaking up
I love those Grandpa phones with massive numbers pads
Phones/Tablets lot are really fun to explore, some older like Nokia N95 or Blackberry with classic games or musics from the era are really great to experience imo.
Yeah and that’s a good point about music and games - I completely forgot to check if any of these phones had music and games. Definitely gonna have to look for that in next week’s video
Wait i just got you on my recommended. You deserve more subs for these kind of videos!
Look up jacob r, this isn’t his main channel
If you sell or give away any. And I mean ANY phone, tablet, laptop, pc, etc. please!!! factory RESET the phone. This will remove the data as it can be sensitive data. Deleting photos and apps is not good enough as it can easily be recovered with data recovery methods like disk drill. But if you factory reset it, it overwrites the data so it cannot be recovered with any data recovery method, which in this case is exactly what you want.
Just a quick tip on that LG phone that's locked you can unlock it if you format data. Power off device then while powering on hold power button and volume up button and recovery menu should appear and using volume buttons select format data and using power button select and done.
it might get FRP locked in the process tho
@@gamecuber6 Something as old as that is very unlikely to have any kind of frp lock, that was introduced in later versions of android
@@brando12343 the third (?) lg phone was running at least android 5, which already had an FRP lock feature
Pretty interesting. I kept all my phones over the years even have my original pager from the 90s. Unfortunately I don’t have my very first 2 phones as they were supplied though my work, Nextel flip and Nextel brick. Still have my original roller ball blackberry, i still turn them on every year or so just to though all the old pictures
awesome video man!
When you unplug the Tracfone TCL, my phone said 10% battery low while watching this lol
That blue sony ericsson Cingular flip phone was my 2nd ever cell phone back in 2007
finally, i havent seen a video like this in years!
The funny thing is I just upgraded my phone at T-Mobile and someone Bought a Flip phone, I guess he just wanted something super basic.
ATTENTION: the at&t phones that don't without sims can have another at&t sim put in from the new-in-box phones, but tracfones require the sim they were activated with.
This guy needs more subscribers this video is very funny and entertaining 👌
Its hilarious looking through all those old phones seeing whats on there also was crazy when in the early 2010s or so people kept using boo and such when talking.
12:27 That LG is pretty cool, pretty sure it runs Android too.
11:22 I used to have that phone. I actually managed to successfully install a number of Android apps on that phone.
The GS4 PRO was hilarious 😂
Man exploring old phones are so damn fun
To get past the lock thing on the one with the cat background,you have to hold the off/on button until you shut it down. Once you hold it again,it should bypass it!
8:27 Silicon: *uses the TCL phone*
LG revere: Low Battery!
I buy tons of untested phones and a word of advice. Once you get into the phones immediately factory reset them lol
Going through old phones is fun
I need to find a way to reset new phones efficiently i used to resell them got some recently and they made it nearly impossible to reset apple or android phones unless their the cheap free phones.
10:16 I have a friend who only uses a flip phone, doesn't have a smartphone
With allot of Android phone models you can boot into a recovery mode by pressing the buttons when turning it on then factory reset the phone
You have the same phone as me too the TCL 😂😂😂😂
Good news, any of the android phones can easily be reset through the recovery menu! For most phones, it's power+volume up or volume down, and some also include the home button if it's a physical one
For samsungs, there's also a very easy to use script to get around the google account lock, my personal moral compass is that if the IMEI isn't blocked it isn't stolen and therefore fine to bypass
Also, TCL also made the later android blackberry phones under license, e.g. keyone, keytwo, etc.
also also, for the samsung phones like the note 8, i believe its bixby power and volume up for recovery mode!
also also also! you can use an un-activated prepaid sim to bypass the sim requirement, get one verizon and one att so it'll work with all the phones, along with using an old/expired sim card on them!
final also! about finding a still activated simcard in one of these phones, the odds of that are actually pretty high! i've found a few this year so far alone! one even had about.... 70gb of data left on it, which was impressive-
7:40 same happend to me with some untested phones there was an sd card full of...THAT kind of photos 😅😅😅
hey dude! i wanted to know if you knew where to find a charger for a sprint htc hero phone
i have a phone collection and i wish you could get phone lots like the one you just got there in italy too
Your video is very, very intertaining.Very, very entertaining.
oh no, choreography 😱
Bro pulled a smoorez and i like it
he forgot to play bfg division tho :/
You can reset the locked androids with a button presses you should look it up
and learn the extra task of FRP exploits
I always reset my phone before I get rid of it. I make sure all my pictures and apps have been moved and then reset it back to factory settings.
Any iPhone you somehow have, is guaranteed to be iCloud locked.
And the wifi logo is grayed out
Ikr
T9 was the fastest way to text on those flip phones
The last flip phone you used seems to have a similar OS to the LTE flip phones my dad acquired shortly after Verizon bought tracfone. He was offered up to $100 off a phone and he chose an LTE compatible flip phone. Verizon will eventually have to have a 5G flip phone with physical buttons available when migrating flip phone users off of LTE flip phones.
Just so you know most androids have a hard reset so even if it has a lock on it you can factory reset it. Google the phone and hard reset and it should tell you what buttons to push and what to do after.
Not going to lie the 3g era had some of the coolest phones.
When it comes to SIM card, most of these phones are likely tied to a carrier so buying the right carrier SIM card is important.
Except for that Tracfone LG flip on 2:44. Tracfone devices are effectively bricked if the original SIM card (a Tracfone card can only be used on one single device) is not present.
and that TCL is elegible to sim unlock if it was used at least 12 months (activated before 11/23/21) or used 2 months (activated after 11/23/21)
I loved this as someone who is a techoholic
MORGBORG Tech crying in a corner right now
I wonder how you get these good will phone lots I’ve always been curious about that
why does GW never put them in the stores?
It's really sad and shocking to know how many people don't factory reset their devices before giving them away or selling them.
crazy you didn’t clean any of those phones with some sort of cloth or something 😭😭
The "New" LG flip phone is called a smart feature phone... it was made in like 2020... it runs kaios
There are people who use flip phones still to this day.
you can easily factory reset every phone, just look up any tutorial on how to hard reset *model number*
I wasn’t trying to factory reset these phones. I was trying to get the passcode to get into them as is
I want one of thoes phones with the physical keyboard just for the clicky buttons
This is why I have never and never will....trade a phone in. If they want to steal your info....they will find a way....even after a factory reset.
tcl guy was freaky
My mom's friend still uses 1 & I want to get him the new modern version of the Nokia 3310
Plot twist he out the images on the phones
You can get assortments of old simcards online . They will get your phones booted up .
Oo thanks for the tip, I’ll take a look
@@SmokinSilicon you can also run a resistor between some of the contacts, i recently fired up one of my veeery old nokias and got stuck on the insert sim screen. I even went and bought a sim card and still could not get past the screen. Ill try to find the link and paste it here somehow
I have quite a few old music player phones like Sony Ericsson Walkman , Nokia XpressMusics , and Motorola ROKR and have never had one not boot to the main menu with an old compatible sim . That's why you need an assortment of carriers . Sprint , Verizon , AT&T of as many different styles as you can find .
they probaly used that phone to shoot footage for the hub which explains why thoose websites are in google
"Too many phonez" 🤣
Im curious for no reason at 3 am what do you with the "corn" photos lol
Probably deletes them.
@@Panzerlite77 or he keeps them for "special" purposes
@@CryoiX oh nah
Goodwill❌
Badwill✅
that phone def isn't from 2012 it looks like one of the k series phones from like 2017
I have that TCL phone, it was 40 bucks from Walmart and it came out in 2021 (phone name is TCL a3)
Just a fyi before you reset the phones make sure to check for google accounts under account if there is you can remove them before resetting them cause if you don’t remove the account it will become google locked
Google lock can be bypassed. icloud lock requires imei/serial changing
How do you bypass FRP?
Might wanna wash your hands after holding that phone 7:50
6:50 I have a similar phone with tracfone.
nugget dip!
This channel needs to be advertised more. I literally thought this was a knockoff video
Just go through and pull out any micro sd cards. That is where you find all the 'good' stuff.
You would think when the phones were donated the owners were obviously too lazy to delete photos and stuff off their phones
i feel like some of these might be stolen and then given/sold to goodwill?
This kinda reminds me of DankPod's Lucky Nuggs Dips
I got my current phone from a free site on Facebook. (As I wrote ‘free site’ it tried to autocorrect to ‘sit on face’). The autocorrect is so fucked up lol. It always autocorrects to the most sexual things… plus I’ve checked my autocorrect settings and they’re normal…
I bought a $8 Amazon Echo Show from a thrift store, it works but is locked into an account
You can try pressing the mute and volume down buttons at the same time for 15 seconds if you can't reset it from the settings .
You can put in a dummy or old non active sim card to bypass the message, this SHOULD work since the phones don't care if the sim is active or not.
not in tracfones tho
@@gabesmath105 never heard that those wouldn't just assume you don't have service, any phone I've ever worked on would assume the sim is active if service was not connecting
@@turtledude01 tracfones won't open the home screen without the sim it was activated with. that changed in 2017 when TF flip phones became AOSP/kai os
@@gabesmath105 oh interesting 🤔 never knew that cause I never ran into one without the original sim...
People need to factor reset there phone before taking it to places that re use stuff
Remember when he found corn on the Wii?
on the wii is CRAZYYYYY
Im pretty sure that the last phone runs Android, would be cool if to check it in settings ;)
I destroy all my old phones.
This is good!
The TCL phone that you had they’re pretty good phones they adapt to any type of usually nano card that you put in with cellular companies, these would be considered unlocked, track phone cannot be used with just any company. I think the company that you buy it from has their own lock on it and I don’t know if those can ever be removed or not usually on a regular cell phone you can get it unlocked after you paid the bill off on your device, and I was thinking as I was writing this to you if you can’t get the passcode, can’t you you could probably do a hard set but then again you’re you’d be getting rid of everything that’s on it that you when you found it that the previous people had put on it so that was a bad idea for me and anyways thank you for sharing your video and I am new to your channel. Thank you for sharing. God bless.
The lg phone is a pro premeire my mom used to have one
Got one I can buy good as hot spot and grafix
Factory reset the phones with the passwords
Same happened to me. It was an older phone at a goodwill and I was pretty new to cells and didn't know I could factory reset phone with one push so I deleted the messages and photos one by one there where some very xxx rated photos on there and lots of naughty messages. I felt embarrassed for her but I can't understand why she didn't clear out her phone. All I knew was that she was in business collage from one photo and the very 1st text said about her 22nd bday and getting the phone on that day so I guess she had some knowledge of phones being in school. I wanted to give it back to her honestly as no one but her partner should see that much. Now I honestly hope she backed them up or maybe that was the point and she no longer cared. I did know enough to sign her out of her Google at least. She's lucky some creep didn't find that phone and save and share those pics. Just imagine the damage especially if it was a jealous ex. So I look at the traumatic experience that way: at least I saved her from much worse.
Those 10 in 1 chargers are unsafe. Most phones with proprietary chargers can only handle a certain amount of watts. Meaning if you plug the 10 in 1 cable in the wrong charger it could fry your phone.
I would like my phone cooked medium rare😂😂😂
Most USB chargers are variable wattage and will work fine with that 10 in 1cable . They will charge at whatever the phone draws up to the maximum limits of the charger . The chances of finding a charger that would be incompatible with one of these phones is beyond low . More than likely at worst it just wouldn't charge at all .
A TCL phone with cracks!
To the guy phone i bought im scared
good thumbnail btw
Hope you washed your hands after touching thay TCL.
I am typing from my apple pen
This is so creepy!!!! I bet some of these phones belonged to people who have died. So sad to look into these peoples lives and you don’t know the person or the history. I hope these people and their friends and family are doing good in life. I still remember my first phone. It was the LG octane from 2012. I still have it and I hope you find or found one
JACOB NO!!!!
I need a newer smart phone
dankpods but american
