I switched to Android sometime back. The real problem i faced was with the transfer of Contacts and Memos. I might not have had to go through a lot of Google'ing if i had sometime or from the beginning had synced to an gmail ac as well. I always had it syncd to my desktop.
I am very average knowledged person when it comes to computers and all this. And in times of crisis or when i somehow make a mistake, the option i have to read and read on the internet to somehow find a way out.
The nice little program from Samsung, Smart Switch, did most of the work from itunes backup. It transfered
- Contacts (without the contact photo, i dont know why so happened.)
- music
- vids
- calender
- bookmarks
But this program didnt get the work done for the iphone memos.
Again i could not fogure out why.
I always had a picture for every contact. But the exported file from ms outlook didnt get along that part. And as hadnt ever synced with gmail, even when i turned the proper setting ON, no contacts would show up in gmail. A thus after looking for a long time i found this app
Group Contacts! by Qbix, Inc.
https://itunes.apple.com/in/app/group-contacts!/id488704737?mt=8&at=10l3Vy
Got the work done.
Its free
Works wonderfully. You look around and you will find it all. Export as an excel file and send it to the proper gmail id, and gmail does the rest.....i got all the contacts and all the associated pictures as well !
.
And the memo. God know what happened. Surely i know less to figure out the cause of not getting the proper results from a software.
After no way to import the memoa into S Notes, i now use Evernote, a cross platform memo/note keeping and backup cloud based app. That way all my iphone momes are in one place in this app on my Note 2.....
I hope my experience of a troubled beginning with Note 2 will save you some time and stress. I acted foolishly when started with iphone and also when with Android...
But i am liking Note 2 every bit...so user friendly and easy to use...and the proper screen size has relieved me of constant eye stress that used to have while using iphone....
Thanks
God Bless
