Or I guess its a technical type question.

I have a HTC Inspire cell phone and just upgraded to a Iphone 4 , my question is can I down load the info from my HTC to my PC then upload to my new phone or sync them? I don't what you would call it.

Thanks

Gordie

Am I the ONLY one on the planet who thinks this I-phone 5 is JUNK. Got

one 2 months ago and been battling with T-Mobile ever since. It does all

kind of stuff like e-mail, text, weather but just try to make a PHONE

CALL,,,sounds like a tin can on a string with someone gargling on the

other end.Goes from 1 bar to 3 bars then to no service and this is 1 mi.

from a tower, so they're telling me. The last tech I talked to said that

because of a storm that happened 100 mi. north of me LAST YEAR it's

causing my problems. madcrazy

I think the sound on the iphone 5 is second to none, my work truck is has loud exhaust where it would be tough to hear me if I was on the highway. With the iphone 5 it blocks background noise. As for the original question, your provider should be swap everything except the apps for you.

I have the 5, and it sounds clear and crisp. I go through ATT, I would be calling your provider, and complaining to them about your service. I also dont have any issues with reception bouncing around.

Tried talking to T-mobile, in fact I've spent HOURS trying to resolve

the problem, they're finally after 2 months of back and forth going to

send out a new phone. I really can't believe I let myself get sucked

into their scam again. Lousy service lousy coverage just like talking

to a Carney when you're dealing with them.

Used upnorths advise and found out that there is a app for that grin really I had to email my contacts to my new phone then the apt downloaded them into my contact list.

The guy at AT&T told me to text them but he was talking about my new phone so when I turned it on I de-activated my old sim card and most of my stuff can not be transferred but my contacts could be. I only had one app that I really used and it was Navionics so I will purchase that again for my iphone crazy

Oh well up and running and that's what counts.

I tried Verizon and it was junk in my area, I had no luck with it at all. No service with Verizon at my house and ATT does.

T-Mobile is a joke. I finally got out of my contract with them, and have not had a problem since. I wouldn't get service from my house when every other carrier would get full service. Also it seemed like I would drop every other call because of them. Then you factor in there terrible customer service and it was an easy decision.

Like with most things, you get what you pay for. I've had Tmo for years and get bad reception at home too. The cool thing is I can use wifi calling, so no big deal. They also roam on AT&T up north so I can use my phone there. I can create a wireless hotspot for my ipad for free too.

I save a bunch each month and so for now I will be sticking with them a while longer. Though not perfect, I'm able to work through the issues and it works for me... at least for now.

I dumped T-Mobile and went to AT&T, problem solved. The people at AT&T

said the lease on their towers with T-Mobile ran out and they refused to

renew, so there lies the problem I was having with my I-Phone.

There is a good reason why Verizon costs the most.

iPhone 5 user here with Verizon and no problems whatsoever.

The problem is not the phone, it is the carrier.

No, I do not work for Verizon, I just make my monthly payment to them. laugh

Verizon is worthless on the lakes here up north.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
