Ah another thing I do NOT like about Android phones

I had the notice of you need to upgrade. Well, given the Win machine is in the shop... I downloaded the app to the mac. It essentially took over the computer while it did that. You cannot do nothing! I am spoiled I admit. I am used to using my computer while the I stuff does it's thing.

And the phone is doing it's thing and the Software is asking where are though? I say funny.

Next thing needed to be upgraded is MY PHONE, and it will be an IPhone.

Eventually I'll upgrade, but it still fills all my needs (thought the camera is dated)

first my Macbook of 9 years bit the dust. Then my husband's Iphone 3 finally gave up the ghost, ok it was still working sort off, and two days later, his computer. I will need to hold off before I upgrade my phone.



So I did the update on the OS. Let's see if that leads to less freezes.

When my android needs an update, I hit one button on the screen and it's done.

And then using the USB update it puts it into the phone.

Reality is that next year I am getting rid of it...
