Cellphone Default Replacement is a modern smartphone override with 17 screen options and 14 cover options, so you can switch up both parts of the phone. The Sims 4 phone replacement adds the smartphone to the Buy catalog under Small Electronics for §300, and you can place it on community lots. You’ll need Discover University to use this replacement, and you should only have one default phone override installed at a time. It’s also incompatible with the CEP-extra file named CEP-EXTRA_Cellphone, so delete this file before installing the replacement. The December 2023 update fixed an issue where the phone sometimes wouldn’t appear as recolorable with the Design Tool. If you want to personalize the phone further, the creator also provides a PSD file. You can use it to create custom screen backgrounds using pictures of loved ones, pets, or anything else you want displayed on your Sim’s phone.
Follow these steps to install Cellphone Default Replacement on your Sims 4 game:
Download the mod file from the link above. Sims 4 mods typically come as .package or .ts4script files.
Open your Sims 4 Mods folder. The default location is: Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods
Place the downloaded file directly into the Mods folder. You can organize mods into subfolders up to one level deep.
Launch The Sims 4 and go to Game Options > Other. Make sure "Enable Custom Content and Mods" is checked.
Restart the game if it was already running. The mod should now appear in your game.
Important: Always back up your save files before installing new mods. After Sims 4 updates, mods may need to be re-downloaded or updated by the creator.
Platform
The Sims 4 (PC/Mac)
Pro tip: If a mod stops working after a game update, check the creator's page for an updated version. Broken mods can cause the game to behave unexpectedly.
