Can you make a video on how to transfer files using smart switch but when the old phone screen is burnt and gone full white its accessible but you cant see nothing on it. I would really appreciate if you do that because my S20 Ultra 5G had this issue as many S20 Ultras and now I dont know how to get my data from it using this method, I would really appreciate your help.
I’m brand new to the Samsung game (coming from iPhone). Thank you SO much for the detailed walk through & suggestions throughout your video!! Can’t tell you how helpful this was for me ❤
@@sukhmanbal7057 oh absolutely!! My opinion only, but Samsung is far superior to iPhone in almost every way. I've been an iPhone user since it first launched. Couldn't be happier with this switch! Don't get me wrong, there is a definite learning curve as Android and Apple are polar opposites. If you're ready to step out of that comfort zone - Galaxy S23 Ultra I highly recommend.
@@jadddean it was pretty seamless for me! I used Smart Switch & followed this videos walk though. Worked perfectly. All my apps (the ones that had an Android equivalent anyway), photos, texts, voicemails, voice memos. contacts, notes, reminders - everything came over to my Galaxy. The only thing I'd recommend is to get a password manager and save all your login information. I didn't do that and had to physically log in with User/Passwords to every single app again. That was a pain but everything else, very easy! Loving this Galaxy so much more than iphone
I see an incredible amount of people switching from Apple to the S23 Ultra, and I’M doing it too…I’m receiving my S23 Ultra tomorrow and I’m confident I can transfer my data from my iPhone 13 Pro Max, because of this FANTASTIC VIDEO! Oh, I just subscribed and I don’t do that often. Keep up the good work. ✔️
All I can say is damn good info. I set up my S22U the old fashioned way, and since I'm pretty sure in a year I'll be getting an S24; I am going to give this a try for setting up my S23 Ultra. Sure appears to work ok, and the info from this video sure makes it easy to do. Thanks. UPDATE: Info was slightly off with steps, but NOT a problem. Pretty much the system walks you through the procedure. However, not as easy as shown when going from an S22U to a S23U. Kept disconnecting when using cables; had to restart a few time. Tried two different cables (one from S22, other from S23) same problem. Cannot believe either port was bad since the S22 port was very seldom used, and only used for data transfer. Phone has always been wirelessly charged. S23 was initially charged with a cord, but would assume it was ok. It did finally work, just took a few times to get it to remain working while plugged in. (Both phones started at 100% charge.)
this very helpful. the only thing I found was using a generic cable didn't work for iPhone. once I used the cable that came from the iPhone icy worked a treat.
Great video. Is there any way to COMPLETELY copy everything across? Seems that various customisation things are not included as well as various settings?
Yes! I transferred data with smartswitch from note 20 to s23 ultra. Everything transferred without any issue! You only need to take a backup off wattsapp data in Google drive if you use the app.
As of today I returned back to Android squad. Upgraded from my I Phone 12 Pro Max to the Galaxy S23. Will all of my videos, pics and documents transfer? I have A LOT of stuff on my phone. 5 yrs worth of stuff. I can’t wait to get my hands on this beast known as the Galaxy S23
By installing the "Smart Switch" I wonder if the app will also download your files to the company as well as transferring them to the new phone? Can't you just transfer the files without a software install?
When you transfer the photos from Android to Samsung, is all the information about the photos saved? Including when the photos were taken and where were they taken? And when I copy the information of the messages, is it only on SMS or also on WhatsApp or only on WhatsApp? Does it copy all messages from WhatsApp?
@ViralCompile I ordered phantom black yesterday and the order came today looks good sometimes being slow probably my broadband Internet is bad dont know
@ViralCompile alot of people are going for the green, but green colors are delayed until March now e Iarliest available color for next day delivery is phantom black
Hi, thank for the video, quick question. Is the data includes the bio metrics data????, as the apps will be installed again, but what about apps that I used my finger print to log in
My question is will the pics be in the same folders that they were on the old phone? I just transferred all my pics after initial setup and they're all now together in one folder which is very inconvenient. Thanks in advance
I think if it's encrypted you have to decrypt it before you transfer. I hate transferring info when getting a new phone. I find not everything gets transferred. Iam going to have to do this next week transferring my note 20 to s23. Which I know is going to be an issue as s23 doesn't have sd card and I have one in the note.
I got my new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra couple of days ago & had to go through the tiresome process of transferring all my data from my old Sony Xperia + setting up all my accounts again. I did find that around 100 of my holiday pics did not transfer over from the gallery in my old phone, although they are still available in google photos?
Bought a new Samsung device with the Smart Switch app will it transfer my WhatsApp data, including images and videos, from my iPhone? Or would you like me to back up my WhatsApp before transferring?
whenever i try to factory reset my phone it deletes everything but then it just starts back up without going to the set up screen. just straight to the homepage.
Can if transfer key setting like games like call of duty which i set accordingly to my liking from huawei phone, which the setting had been save to the phone and when using Samsung transfer will transfer all data?
As long as you have your progress saved on your old phone. For example I play Solitaire Grand Harvest on my phone and have my progress saved by way of Facebook link with the game. So if I transfer the game to my new phone I just have to link the game on the new phone back to Facebook and I get my saved progress from game on my old phone
Ok these phones have both their own sim card. But what if you need to take the old sim card and put in the new phone. Then how do you do the transfer as the sim card needs to go to the new phone and now you don't have it in the old one?
Im waiting for my Samsung S23/Ultra to come in the mail when I get it do I have to bring it back to at&t for them to transfer from my s21 ultra or can I do it my self?
Well it looks easy for you but for me just checking off the things i dont want will take forever and you then had to choose samsung things also, got to be an easier way, will i be able to keep my passwords the same, or will every app. Need to be set up? Eeks i have a galaxy phone but people that have apple like my son, it's so easy and everything stays the same, but I want another galaxy
so i just spent 4 hours setting up the phone just to have to reset the thing again. I did the backup from icloud already but it only put like 20 photos on
when you transfer apps do they install to the new phone with passwords already setup along with previous preferences or do you have to redo all those options. like fingerprint access to certain apps along with security settings ? adding my router to my S10 was a process that i would like to avoid doing again. also i have expandable memory . does it transfer that or should i remove before the transfer?
Is it REALLY this easy? Quickish question, I will be t-terring my s9+ to my s23 Ultra. The last time I signed into my Samsung account it started putting the large white rectangular Samsung Pass box in the sign in area of my important apps so signing in became a nightmare. I tried EVERYTHING to stop it. Signing OUT worked. So, during the initial transfer should I wait for everything to finish and then sign in to my Samsung account later, or should I sign in when prompted to do so during set up?. I just don't want to start off w Samsung taking over everything. It was infuriating when I needed to sign into something quickly and have to guess what was behind that Samsung pass box. Yes I know this is an odd question n I hope I explained it clearly. Thank you for your time n help w this matter. I will be sharing this vid w anyone I know who is going to t-fer to the s23Ultra n will be recommending this channel. You've taken the nightmare out of the process unlike other channels. So glad you popped up on my feed a few days ago. Blessings.
This is probably a dumb question, but how do I start receiving calls and text on my new phone, instead of the old. I've always upgraded in store, so I've never had to do this myself.
@@TechnicallyAlex I figured this was it, but one of the first instructions I was given when I received the new phone, was to use the Sim card that came with it.
My Razer phone 2 doesn't have a qr scanner and the USB -C charging port is not working. Can I skip the qr scan and continue by using another method? Thanks
Hey is there a way to transfer all of your data without erasing data from your old phone? I am trying to transfer but its saying i need to deselect or erase 26gb before transferring data
OK I did this and successfully transfered all the files. Then after i put in the simcard I lost all the files I transfered. Unfortunately I already factory reset the old phone. Is there any way to recover my files? I think you should have a caution in this video.
Hi..i want to transfer my S7 Edge data / apps etc to an S23 Ultra but the S23 wont have a SIM card . I was just going to put the SIM from my S7 Edge into the S23...will this cause an issue only having the 1 SIM while transferring the data as I think the S23 will also need a SIM to turn on . (S23 just ordered from Samsung)
@melloniek730 Turns out it didn't matter. I transferred data using Samsungs Smartswitch app from my old S7 Edge to the new S23 Ultra with the SIM card in the S7 Edge. Once the data had transferred I put the S7 Edges SIM card into the S23 Ultra and all worked fine.
samsung when they have a feature, it always work flawlessly. its not like microsoft where things always have compatible issue. feature never work as it intended to be. for example like in microsoft window, finding network storage or other share folder on network either takes a long time to find it or never find it. sometime window version compatible issue. or it ask you for password to login but it doesnt work. if samsung make their own operation, it would works so smoothly.
i tried the smart switch years ago and i had to redownload EVERYTHING and RESET alll my passwords and fingerprint logins and it sucks!!! im getting the s23 ultra with 16gb and 1TB and i would like to know HOW can i transfer EVERYTHING, apps, data, login settings and my 500 songs on my sd card without losing everything again!?? everytime i would have to use my computer for the sd card to transfer my data😢😢😢😢

Depends on the app, but for security reasons, usually you will need to re-login
When you transfer everything over, is that stuff still on the original phone, or is it removed during transfer?
Everything stays on the old one, you’re just making a copy
