Chicken's revenge.

[V8Ian]

Chasing a chook yesterday I dropped my phone, breaking the screen. I can no longer do anything with the phone and all my contacts are on the phone, not the SIM.
To all you good people with whom I have exchanged phone numbers, could you please text, email or PM me your number and name.
Insurance will cover the damage but a factory reset is part of the repair process.
On a brighter note, the chook will be on somebody's dinner plate next week.

Cant you hook it up to a pc and access your contacts etc ?

[V8Ian]

No :(, I need to unlock the phone first but cannot do so with a broken screen.

[jerryd]

Don't you ever answer your phone or reply to messages :tease:

[Ausfree]

Serves you right for going around chasing chicks...oops, I mean chooks. Poor thing probably knew what devious plans you had for it.:p

ps....PM sent.

[V8Ian]

Only to select callers. :p

I assume it's not a smart phone? One of the great things about Android (and I would think Apple) is they synchronise all your contacts. Get a new phone, put in your credentials, and within minutes all your contacts are back!

Mind you, one could debate about the whole privacy issue... :eek:

[Hall]

So your phone was a victim of fowl play :)

Top of the range Sony Z5, but you need to unlock the phone before you can download the contents.

[Pedro_The_Swift]

My $$$ is on it was an iphone ;)

There may be a chance you're mistaken in thinking the contacts are only on the phone.

Log in to Gmail, and go to contacts - anything there will be automatically downloaded to any new Android phone.

Mind you, I recently sorted out my mum's android phone - half her contacts were on the sim, and half on the device, and bugger all on her gmail account :(

I've had an iPhone, never again.

[jerryd]

This phone is "chic"................

[jerryd]

It could get silly now Ian :D

Chicken Selfies :cool:

[bob10]

Not a Mitchell Pearce moment?

[V8Ian]

Your sympathy is appreciated, Jerry. :mad:

Bob, that's too kinky for me, I prefer erotic.......that only needs a feather. ;)

Only if it is not still attached to the chicken :p

I think the RSPCA would frown on you doing that to a chook! :eek:

It didn't escape from the trailer, they're more secure than a black mariah, she snuck out of the shed.
You're dragging the chain with your details Andy, I'll be over there in a couple of months. Might have to drop in unannounced if I can't ring you. ;)

[LandyAndy]

will txt you.

I know, right? ... the cheek! :D

[V8Ian]

It's winging its way to Sydney for a new screen, I have requested that a factory reset is NOT done but I lack faith that my instructions will be heeded. In the meantime I have bought a $50 special, smart phone.

So did you try logging in to Gmail on a computer to see what contact details you have?

[V8Ian]

I've never used Gmail :(

[Ranga]

I've never used Gmail :(

but... but... you have a Google (Android, gmail, etc) phone?! :eek: Didn't you ever create a Google account?

[V8Ian]

Yes, but never did anything with it.

[Ranga]

Yes, but never did anything with it.

When you create a Gmail account, you get a gmail account. On most Android phones, it automatically synchronises your contacts and mail.

Go to gmail.com, and try putting in your user name and password that you used on your phone.

[V8Ian]

It says the last sync was January 29 at 18.44, that was 12 hours after I dropped it. :confused:
What do I do next?

[digger]

I assume its a good thing..

I had a phone that wouldn't sync at all not matter what.
I was told I had to change the name..
So I changed it to Titanic and now it syncs every time. :D

You don't need to thank me :-)
