If you are looking for a phone without gps to stay off grid or something, I hope you know your location can be triangulated by comparing signal strength and direction of different towers
Can always spoof though
please educate me a bit, why do you need a phone without gps?
Берете любой на андройде. В сервисе выпиливаете чип. Потом в конфиге под рутом гасите обращения к нему. Но смысл, если половина программ по слежению не использует gps. А элементарно устанавливает положение по триангуляции с базовых станций.
Value village / salvation army usually has old flip phones. Find something from 2000 and see if you can activate it with your provider.
Just use a burner phone and they do the job but obviously some of them do have GPS and also when you connect your sim card you do sort of reveal your location so is best to purchase a burner phone with also what's called ghost simcard (other names as well) where you just tweak with your sim card and disable it's location function but still connect to your provider.
The provider always knows where your phone is. The only way out is an anonymous SIM (or issued to another person). In this case, your phone is better to leave all in another place as the sample by phone 20 meters from the location of your room is very easy to get.Quote:

phones are for CIA, use carrier pigeons

Doesn't matter if it has GPS or not. In any somewhat populated area, you can be located within 50meters with pure tower data. Often a lot closer.
What are you trying to do
If you want to be cool that no one is watching you, the best option is a cheap button phone like siemens, sony ericsson or nokia.
just get an cheap ass Android root it and play something like lineage OS or some other kind of open source OS on it and remove the code for the GPS chip
It all depends on your goals. You can buy either old models without GPS or you can programmatically disable the GPS adapter. Please describe in more detail what you will do.
As far as I know, a cellphone can be tracked without GPS.
I don't have many details, but the basic principle is that two different towers of the mobile phone company receive your normal signal from different directions.
With this, you can easily get your position by constructing a triangle.
Yes, the lack of GPS chip will not protect you from tracking!
Agree with the post above. A few days ago I've read about this.
A good phone without gps: Nokia 3310. You can even break stuff with it.
you could get almost any phone tbh. Find one that can be rooted and has a rom for LineageOS or ubuntu touch, or buy a predone degoogled phone.
After install a good gps spoofer app and set it to always use the mock location for gps.
Only downside is E911 will be pissed
Yea, the only way to stop tracking is by turning it off/ pulling battery.
They can see your location by the towers your cell phone hits. It will give them a general area but if you are between multiple towers (3+) they can triangulate your position by checking signal strength to the 3+ towers pretty accurately.
Triangulation has been used for a long time (Ancient Egypt) and is pretty accurate
