11-13-11 03:14 PMLike 0 - Yea I don't blame you. I definitely backed up. I'm sticking with iTunes also. It NEVER asked me to do a restored after logging in as new phone

My wp apps I can re dwld and replace them so that's really not a big deal. And I'll get my ringtones off of my iTunes when I hook up now. I'm not really worried about not having music on my iPhone right now either.
I just need to get my necessities back. Notes and keeper info. I just hope through all this my battery does improve.

After which you did a restore as new, then you should have been able to restore your backup...11-13-11 05:34 PMLike 0 - Accidental PostSlayer of MisinformationPink when you restored your phone at that point your phone should have a screen that say iPhone and you begin the setup there.
You turn on location etc and then it will ask you to restore from iCloud. That when you check iCloud.

I thought that when you restore it through your back up if there was anything previously 'corrupt' it isnt a good idea to throw that back up back onto the phone.

through the set up process, it never asked me to restore from icloud. idk why. also, it took a few minutes before it actually finally activated with VzW.
Any way, i'm not upset like i was before, i'm just baffled as to why icloud didnt work right. the really strange thing about it is--it saved my contacts, photo stream(217 pix) and calendar. But i know i had the ON for apps etc.
right now, i got all of my keeper info entered back in, i've synced back from itunes my 3 ringtones, music, few wps apps, BOA, and map quest. I have some of my wps on my laptop that i can email myself again. And i just need to enter in my 'notes' info again. So all is almost back to normal.
I purchased 'tap-a-talk' today so i'm hoping when i go back into the app store from iphone, it'll recognize ive purchased it and it'll just re-dwld it.
Once i get everything back right, i'm going to do a back up tomorrow so i have everything current again.11-13-11 06:33 PMLike 0 -
i'm just gonna stick to the old fashion was and back up thru itunes from now on. I can't handle the stress of worrying about icloud backing up or if it didn't lol11-13-11 06:35 PMLike 0 - ok, so right now since i've restored and charged to full 100%, my stats are: usage: 40m/ standby 1h 12m and i'm at 94%.
i hope that sounds good now. i've also changed my email to fetch only, every hour now. (push is only set for yahoo)11-13-11 06:36 PMLike 0 - Accidental PostSlayer of MisinformationAs a good measure reset your network settings I did and it helped11-13-11 06:39 PMLike 0
