Is it possible to hack into a non-smart phone cell phone? : HowToHack
Learning about how phones work and can be attacked isn't an issue we have with people wanting to hack phones for knowledge, but I would suggest sticking to the learning side of things, and less on the "spying on my ex" and move on before you find yourself arrested. Depending on the flip phone, you'd need to intercept what it expects to transmit on and impersonate the towers, which means over powering them, and being closer to this phone than the persons network of towers. The equipment to do this is not cheap, although they've made a lot of progress in the SDR field of devices in past few years.
A flip phones is called a "feature phone" in the trade. It is not a "smart" phone, but it can do some of the things a smartphone can do. For example, a typical flip phones can receive email, SMS text messages, send photos, keep a calendar and use Bluetooth.
Is Hollywood Going Back to Flip Phones?
The big difference is in the Operating System and the fact that Feature Phones typically don't use high speed data connections such as 3G or 4G or WiFi. Feature phones also don't have operating systems like iPhone, Android or Windows, although some of them might have cut down versions of these systems.
Mostly they have semi-programmable software sets that support the phone's functions. For example, flip phones have GPS chips and your location can be tracked on a flip just as well as you can be tracked on a smartphone.

And SMS, email and pictures can be easily intercepted by government organizations as well as by hackers. What feature phones, or flips, generally don't have is much access to social media such as Facebook, which needs a data connection. Nor can you use programs like Skype. But you can access the Internet, although the connection is very slow. If the Hollywood types can live without high quality photos and social media, maybe the flip phone will work for them.
But it won't make them much more secure.
