Selling My iPhone 4 - Help Me Transisition to Samsung Focus

I'd still say syncing with Google Account is the best. Then you never have to worry about backing them up or importing them. Or what if you lose your SIM card. (Plus I'm on Verizon and don't have SIM cards)

Plus, if you make a change to a contact or add a new one, it's instantly changed on the Google contacts site and will change between all your devices connected to your Google account.

Plus being able to manage and edit them on a website in bulk is very helpful sometimes.

I just got my phone. Just playing around with it now. I am waiting for my 32 SD card to come in from the mail. Screen is gorgeous.

Hi guys , Im new here (kinda , since I read\check always the Central , but this is my first post in the forms).....


My questions are :

- with the upcoming Mango (& Tango & WP8 after it) , can the current devices handle the upcoming updates , or they gonna be dropped from the Supported devices list (like the HD2 , which the HD7 is an updated version of) due to Hardware restrictions ?
I see it happens in Android all the time

All devices will get the updates. The only things they will not get is new hardware, so phones without front facing cameras or gyroscopes ect will not take advantage of that part of any updates to the software obviously.

- Can I transfer my iTunes music (DRM free) to zune without losing the "IDtags" (Title , Artist , album , track number , disk number , year , lyrics ...etc) & still get the background pictures in the Zune music app in the phone ?

yes

- Can I Play my mp4 music videos (160 of them , which I already converted to make em work on my iPod Touch) without reconverting them ... again ?

I believe that is one of the supported file types yes.

- With the upcoming Ringtones feature in Mango , can I use any file (mp3) or like the iPhone they have to be converted (M4r) to work & they have to be under 30 seconds long ?
I don't wanna hear my phone rings "Sexy back" or "Banana phone" , but still , its a nice thing to have (Like Android & Symbian)

You have to cut them down to under 30seconds like the iphone. For now at least (natively). There is also support with Mango for 3rd party developers to create applications that will make ringtones also so you will see some of that.

- Which one do you recommend (Trophy , HD7 or Atrix-android- )?

I recommend Windows Phone of coarse. The Focus is my favorite current phone but depends what your carrier supports. They all run very well.

Just a note on the artist pics/info. My music all plays fine, but some of my track artwork - mainly for files where I added the artwork myself - got screwed up via WP7 Connector on the Mac, so now I have tracks with the wrong artwork on my phone.

Not a major problem (and everything is still fine in iTunes, which is where everything is stored), but slightly annoying nonetheless.
