Hi, this was already done as far as I remember, make sure you have the latest version and lemme know

So, first: I adore you and your mods. Is there any way you can make it so teen sims who live independently are able to buy a phone of their own? x_x I like to start with teens in rags to riches, but they have no parents to ask for a phone from, and the landline phone doesn't let the sim interact with certain "apps" x_x.

Hi, you might have a broken mod which is interfering with Toolbox, the most commonly known is helenae preference plus which is broken in and off itself. What zee it is we can help you find it on the discord by checking file logs

Hi, I'm having some issues with the functional mobile mod. Whenever i put it in my game i get stuck on an infinite loading screen when loading into a household. I removed my phone overrides and placed the model file back in and it still has this issue. The toolbox mod is also up to date. I hope you can help me, thank you!

i love you

Hi, you can make battery last 4 days or turn off battery drain altogether in settings

Lumpinou

Hi, did you make sure you have the very latest files as this had a fix some time ago

Hi! I have run into a problem with the parental controls feature not clearing properly. My current sim was given his phone as a child, so parental controls were enabled. Upon aging up to Teen, I had his mom use the interaction to disable them, as she was about to die of old age and he'd need full access to the phone system as the only remaining sim in the household (his father was already an elder when he was born and died a few days later). However, controls remain enabled, locking out important items (notably the entire Home menu, which almost got him killed when a fire started while cooking since he couldn't call the fire department) Choosing to opt out of the system did not fix the issue. To regain full phone access I had to remove the mod, load and save with it gone to clear the mod's data, then put it back in. The new phone purchased after doing this is properly unlocked and gives full access. If you want to follow up on this feel free to ping me on discord - I'm not posting this there because I'm on a friend's computer and can't get on there atm. You know me there as Jaylow7

Nice, sometimes i would like to have more battery time, it is almost forgotten in charge battery every day

Hi, what do you mean exactly 'using the regular ea phones'? Am a bit confused because this uses the same phone as the game

Katia

Would like to see a version using the regular EA phones. Would like to use the snooping features in my game.

Lumpinou

I like the idea I'll think about implementations

Lumpinou

Hi click your sim then phone management to purchase phone

Sabbysims

hi I cannot find the cellphone, its not in my inventory.

Royalty

Would it be possible to add a functional alarm clock system to it? That would be so cool!!

Lumpinou

Hi, I'd need to see the error report to inform. Regarding last update date, check under the 'important edit' section of the download post (since it's an early access mod) ; for public mods the best way to check that is mod Hound

SailorGoon

I got an exception and it says its from you mobile phone, dies it need to be updated?

syria thompson

hey so i fixed the problem new problem omg nothing is showing up when i click on preg/family nothing is showing up

Lumpinou

Hi, that would be an installation problem, check that you have the right toolbox version and no duplicate

syria thompson

so everytime i put this mod in my game never load my household

Lumpinou

Hi, what do you mean exactly

Rasheedah Crosby

I can't find the updated toolbox link it keeps sending me to the old one

Lumpinou

Hi, thanks! would need to see the error report to say

Tyesha McAskill

hey I love your mods. I just installed your mod and I keep getting a last exception. I really don't know what the problem is.

Lumpinou

Hi, probably installation problem; no matter what, I can help you with it if you send the error report on the discord server https://www.discord.gg/AEAsRvn

Kelly-Marie

I keep getting a last exception no matter what, ive no idea what's going wrong with it.

Lumpinou

Hi, dunno yet. There is the extra problem of half the files being optional - CF is very not practical with handling optional files

Lumpinou

Hi first check your Toolbox versions then if still not finding the problem we can find it for you on the discord

lele1102

hey i keep getting a last exception error installing this mod. I used the up to date toolbox and put it in the mods folder extracted it , im not sure why when i remove it the error goes away. I really do want to try this mod you created.

Djoww

Will this mod be available on CF too once public?

Lumpinou

Hi, to buy a phone, click your sim and go in the phone menu

Mia

What is the name of the object again, i can't find it in build mode lol.

Lumpinou

Hi, sounds like an installation problem, can help you with it on the discord 😃

Hello, when I add it, it just keeps making my game stay on the loading screen. When I take it out my game works. :(

Salt

Tiffany Crystal

I am sooo stoked right now... This is so dope of a mod and I haven't even played with it yet. I've been hoping someone would create a mod like this to add to simrealest bills mod. So excited right now... Had to post twice lol
