Quick question, is there a way I could transfer my texts from my old phone (Motorola Cliq 2) to my new phone (S5). I have some important messages that I might need on my new phone.

There's an app I used to use to back up texts...can't remember the name but it should definitely be in the play store

s5 has a built in transfer system

Invites should be easier to get after the 1st batch goes out in a few days. In June availability picks up. I'm on a list on xda where they're sharing invites. If I get one I'll share mine here.

Good looks fam. Appreciate it.

SMS backup and restore.

Aight, i got a little dilema. The S5 has a micro sim & my whole phone's sim doesn't fit. My brother was telling me to cut it. (He did it on his phone). Any other suggestions?

 

[Mac071415]

Cut it. Easy shyt. Use a template. Or you can find a microsim from another carrier n use that.

 

[Diondon]

Just get a scissors and cut it. Or buy one of these

It's just another Android flagship phone. The only thing garbage on it is the speaker on the back.

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

I hate to be a pain in the ass with my questions, but if I cut down my sim card, it still not might not fit. The top is the S5 microsim & the bottom is my current sim.

 

[Supa]

order a micro sim from your carrier. i know for tmobile you can walk into a store and they will swap sims for you.

anyone here have a G2? waiting for the OPO is driving me crazy. I love the tiny bezels.

It will fit. I've cut them using a microsim put on top of the regular one and cutting around it.

 

[Mac071415]

Just make sure both middle sections of the Sim line up and cut around the microsim.
