My cable company just terminated our land phones, and supplied us with an android 16 smart phone. I was told it takes a week before my original phone number is fully activated in their system for the change over. I can make calls out, but no one can call me back for a week. WTF??
All I was told welcome to the 21st century given an online site to load how to use my phone. I'll be fertilizer before learning all the bs this phone does.

I never used any type of camera in my lifetime...why do you think I should I start taking pictures now? This phone talks, but doesn't tell me how to work it. It keeps saying.... hello moto, hello moto, hello moto. I'm on the verge of chucking it against a wall to shut it up. I want my land line phones back!
 
The one-week wait is standard for "wireline to wireless" transfers because the old landline infrastructure doesn't sync instantly with the mobile network. It's frustrating, but it's basically an automated hand-off between two completely different types of tech. Just keep the old landline plugged in if you can, sometimes the calls still go there until the very last second when the port completes.
 
Well I guess thats all bs I've been told. As of last night I was able to get my old land line phone number transferred to my cell phone. Total time was about 30 hrs....not a week. Phone is working more normal...I can call out, and people have been calling me using my old land line number.
I still get this ai voice greeting me ''hello moto'' several times when the phone rings.
 
Raining right now, but still about a foot of snow here, but expecting 3'' more this weekend. Been around 40 degrees for a few days.
I can finally get my trailer out as it's been buried big time under a snowdrift. About a week ago I got out the tractor, and dug around it creating a 7' wide path to the driveway so I can eventually tow it out.
