Are people getting the texts from T-Mobile or do you have to go into the app for updates?

My T-Mobile still shows being processed not shipped but my tracking says it will be here tomorrow.

[me23brown]

Now that we all have arrival dates/times, may i ask how best to transfer everything from old phone (S9+) to new phone (S10+) please?

during the past one or two new phone transfers, i was able to use the Smart Transfer app on the phone to do this. i used one of their included double headed plugs (in the box), and plugged the charging cable from the old phone to the new phone.

the Smart Transfer app says press this if this is the old phone, and press that if this is the new phone.

is this the best way to do this transfer, please?

btw, i already bought another new microSD card for the S10+. my feeling is that if i left the old card in the S9+ during the transfer, and put the new card in the S10+ phone, the chances of the transfer going smoothly and getting as much as possible fully transferred is higher. if i pulled the old card out of the S9+ before the transfer and put it into the S10+ before the transfer, and THEN doing the Smart Transfer, i'm concerned that the filing structure of the two phones might be different and the Smart Transfer might get confused and the result might not be ideal.

any advice would be most appreciated. thanks.

[durandetto]

My ups scan was just updated as well but the expected delivery date is NOT visible.

I have 2nd day air. For those of you who have an expected delivery date of tomorrow, do you have the upgraded next day air?

I have 2nd day air and it shows delivery tomorrow. That's why I believe shipping method doesn't mean much for the pre-orders.

My phone backs up to Samsung every night so I just log into my Samsung account on my new phone and restore it that way.

That is how I've done my last several phones and never had a problem. Some people like to do a fresh install and decide what items to backup off of the old phone and put onto the new one but that's a personal choice.

@wookiee2cu:

may i ask if you buy a new sd card every year in order to have the new sd card in the new phone, and leave the old sd card in the old phone DURING the Smart Transfer?

i do that (buy a new sd card every year) in hopes that by leaving the old phone alone, everything intact, including the sd card, that the Smart Transfer might work out the most smoothly with the least issues.

i figure that having fewer issues ultimately after the Smart Transfer is worth the cost of an sd card.

wondering what others do? thx.
