I have an Asus Zenfone 2 and can't seem to get hooked up with cricket. When I do the network scan in settings, it only shows T-Mobile and AT&T 2/3/4G networks. I went to the cricket store to use their test sim and no dice. I assumed any unlocked phone would work. I have been using it on t Mobile for a while now. Is there a setting or something I need to change?

However when I got a Cricket phone I popped that SIM card into my ZenFone 2 and it worked fine immediately. No settings trickery needed.

If you have an unlocked device with hotspot capability, you can set up a hotspot using a cricket sim without paying the $10/month. I have done this on an Asus Zenfone 2 multiple times with zero issues.

I have 2 lines at 10G/mo each with a 20G data pool per line on T-Mobile and it's a hair under $120/mo. Even streaming youtube on the bus every day I never ran out, and speedtest.net gives me double or triple the speed of Cricket depending on location. If you're going to pay top dollar, get top dollar speeds. Conversely, Cricket gets infinity times the speed of T-Mobile when I visit my folks out in the sticks.

The 2nd Gen Moto X is $200 and is a steal compared to the Moto G. https://www.motorola.com/us/motomaker?pid=FLEXR2 Since it's unlocked and pre-6.0, it may be able to tether on Cricket too.

So Motorola is selling 2nd-gen Moto X's for $200 and my mom got one for her birthday. Unfortunately, she can't get Cricket support on the phone to set it up with a new nano-sim because the whole nation was calling in for statement credits because of last week's outage.

Conceivably yes, but Mom is new to smartphones in general, and has never even paid a bill online before Cricket. It not even a huge deal because she still primarily uses the landline. She does love Cricket support when she can get through. They've always been super helpful.

As I recall, I couldn't tether on my Cricket branded device unless I paid $10/month extra. I swapped my Cricket SIM into an unlocked phone and I could tether fine. YMMV
