Hi, I'm Rob and I have to switch from my Windows phone. Sorry this is a long post. I'm not exactly a newb as I'm in the tech field but I'm new to Android. I picked a Amazon Renewed S7 based on specs, OS version, and price. I've been setting it up bit by bit. I have set up 4 e-mail accounts in Outlook, 2 of which hold my home and business contacts lists.
What do you all suggest for cases? I'm partial to the gel or jelly cases as they are usually thin and seemed to protect my Lumia pretty well.
I prefer MS services so I use Cortana and MS Launcher but can't get MS services to respond to a button push on my eabuds. I get "Complete action using Google or S Voice" but would like to use MS services. Also it won't activate when the screen is locked. Any idea where I configure something like this?
I'd like to backup phone state for restoration to a new phone. My Windows phones did this excellently. However I don't want my photos, contacts, or calendar synced as I host them in Outlook.com. Looks like I can use Google or Samsung services. Which do you prefer and can you give some details on the setup?
Is there an easy way to remove "unremovable" apps like DirecTV or Uber?
Thanks in advance for your advice and suggestions!!
