Did this help you? Are there any other issues you usually face when moving to a new phone?
Tech With Brett can you pls link your wallpaper ?
@@timr3255 ⁶⁶⁶
My apps didn't go to the same layout my apps were. My wallpaper did stay the same but apps weren't how my old phone was.
Yes, im trying to move from old to new. Samsung galaxy Luna Pro to> LG better type phone. Is there a switch that will work together "smart switch" & LG app. ??
Will this change over the phone number?
Best all inclusive step-by-step process I have watched yet. I'll be using this video next week to move from my old S20+ to the new S22+. I have also backed everything up to the Google and Samsung Cloud just to be OCD.
Also for anybody starting out on a new Android phone, ALWAYS move your SIM card over first before doing the initial startup or transferring data. Samsung phones automatically erase the entire phone when it detects a new SIM card, so if you transfer over all your data then input the SIM card, it will erase everything and you will have to redo the whole process again.
Source: I work with cellphones and carriers
You must have worked at Sprint... Not sure why this happens sometimes, I have never seen it.
@@TechWithBrett No, it happens in Canada as well.
Oops! I swapped the SIM after the transfer and not a hiccup with AT&T S10 note =>> S22 Ultra
Ya but what if your phone is dead and won't turn and want to transfer the SIM from that phone to the new phone ?
Really great instructions. Thanks for assembling this. I get a new phone today and plan to follow this process to move everything over from the old one.
Thank you so much. Because of your video I did not need to go to my carrier’s store front for help. I did it on my own.
Much appreciated.
Peace to all
The "Fastest way" 28.18+ min later lol...Here let me save you 28 minutes: "use smart switch, its literally made so a 5 year old could follow and understand." done.
You cant install smartswitch without setting up an acct, which requires a credit card. I dont want to give them a credit card number. Also the old sim card will not fit in the new phone
This is not true. Not sure where you are trying to get SmartSwitch. It is in the Galaxy Store.
Problem I have 2 active samsung phones in service and my newest 1 said I had 15 days to backup my old 1 so I started doing it on my newest phone despite both phones being in use. Now I stopped it because my texts are changing, fonts screen etc. I'm afraid the old data is transferring to my newest phone and deleting all my texts and call logs on my newest phone which happened last time I had 2 samsung phones. I use both phones and can't lose any texts on either phone. There's no option to backup texts on new phone. Now my newest phone has changed. I wasn't transferring data I was backing up to samsung cloud. It was hitting backup on samsung cloud. I never went to smartswitch which I disabled on my phone.
I transferred from Galaxy s9 to Galaxy s21. It said that everything transferred fine but I can't find the apps I was using. I need to find my Notepad app bc it contains important info. Help😔
Thanks Brett. Can I use this method to transfer info from my S10 to TabS7 so they are setup identically?
how do I get my google duo to transfer over. I have a Samsung A02S. i had pictures ect
what if the screen is shatter on your old phone and you can not set the permissions you need to to start the transfer prosses
kind of stuck. can 't seem to switch info from old phone to new one
so are apps / folders and the way our home screen looks supposed to copy over? i just copied everything from note 10+ to S22 Ultra and it dosnt seem to have copied everything over.
Excellent video - very thorough. If you are not already using an Autofill app on your old phone, is there a way to retroactively do something on the old phone so one would not need to sign in and enter userid and password for every app on the new phone? I noticed that Google has a developer option that allows app developers to store credentials to Google drive but it appears only a very small percentage of the apps I have work in that fashion?
What if the new phone is the Xcover pro and it’s got a work profile installed with the “hub” restrictions?
Wil it overwrite the knox lock and clone the old device?
My old device is the Samsung Galaxy A11.
So I’m wondering if I could do this and bypass any security blocks from knox and/or HUB ??
What would keep it from arranging the apps icons like they were before on my phone? I followed this protocol and am transferring s10 to s10.
How do you transfer your saved wallpapers and themes on your note 10+ to another samsung phone?
Hi Brett, I am trying to move from a S8 to a S21. I am getting a notice like you did that is requiring me to remove from the transfer 256gb of data from my apps, messages, settings or contacts. In order to do this I would have to eliminate all my contacts and apps. Ugh! If i was to do this is there an easy way to get all my contacts and apps transfered after the phone is set up? TIA 🙂
Will i still be able to transfer all my stuff to new s22 ultra from my s8 once i activate new phone(which says it deactivates my old phone first...
,this video helps, but I want to know what kind of cable used and where to get it? Because I don't have enough space on old phone (J3 Luna Pro) to download smart switch.
How much longer would it take if you pick wireless instead of cable?
Must I remove the sim card on the "old" phone first if they both have sim cards? What's a quick check to see if sim card exists without popping it out?
how do you transfer all the signed accounts from your old Samsung phone to a new one? you know in settings there an option called "accounts" The option does show in the smart switch but it doesn't transfer any accounts except Samsung and google, that too you have to end the credentials so whats the point of giving an option of accounts to transfer
This didn't work for me. Should I've moved my memory card first?
Best video on data transfer ..thank you!
Thank you , exellent ! Explained it so well 😊
Great video. Easiest new phone update ever!!!
Hi! I know you may not see this but, my mum is getting a new phone but she cannot transfer data via smart switch as she won’t have access to her old phone- only her new phone. So can she just back up the Samsung cloud and then sign in on the new phone? How would this work? Thank you
Thanks so much! Very informative. I might have to do this in the near future. I have subscribed . 👍🌹
so, i can D/L everything even the icons on the new from old s6 plus to s21 plus phone
Thankyou for the video. I am moving from Motorola to a Samsung a32 and keeping the same sim card, Am I right in assuming I can switch data by preparing Motorola, moving Sim card to new phone then transferring it with Smart Switch. As I am an a real Oldie, I want to make sure before I do anything. Just 1 thing more would it include Whats app in the transfer.
Thankyou you have helped me.
How to transfer mob to Android tablet. I want to have the same wallpaper and themes that I bought?
Worked perfectly! Thank you!
Is there a way to transfer bluetooth devices?
Hi. I’ve moved my stuff from my old Samsung phone to my new one BUT there’s 10 days of WhatsApp chats missing! I had to put a new sim in the new phone as it was a nano…not sure how to get my chats back…no teenagers to ask, either. Any ideas? Cheers, xxx
After I switch everything, and try to download app in galaxy. they sent the code to my old phone and nothing happen. Very Frustrated. 🤬
Very thorough, thanks!
Thanks for the help, thanks for the printed index.
It says Samsung Smart switches in available for my Galaxies Android OS 11's update!
Yes. I'm restoring some contacts on my old phone but I dont know where to send it. Phone or Google Account?
Tech with Brett can you pls link your wallpaper?
What was the name of that cable that you used??
Will it work if one phone is micro USB and the new one is Type-C?
Does the old one have to support OTG?
thanks for your video and taking the time to explain this
Amazing!! Thank you very much!!!
Thank you for telling
Why did Samsung get rid of the expandable memory?
Can you transfer data without screen access to the old phone?
Hey Brett what's that wallpaper again?
Excellent video! Thank you Brett.
Question with the calendar not transferring over. This happened to me when I used Smart Switch from my S10+ to my S20 Ultra. Do you recommend using Samsung Cloud to transfer over the calendar?
I did that exact smart switch a s10+ to a s20 ultra and everything was fine.
Sorry to hear that.
This is an Excellent Presentation. Thank you. I have configured my gmail account with 2 levlel verification. and unable to turn it off. If I will do the migration with 2 level verification for gmail, will it cause me issues?
Love you tech with Brett
Is it free. Smart switch is being crap for me. I'm transferring galaxy s20 to Sony Xperia mark 1 4
Why is there no video on transferring sd card memory to newer phones where the pictures/videos sync in according to time when they were taken
Whatsapp beta is full. How do I fix this please?
That's nice info.👍
have you seen or heard of it getting stuck at a percentage for a long period of time?
What if my other phone screen is broken and will not let me do anything on it?
Thank you
I got the note 20 ultra, can I use this same method to transfer to my tab s7 plus? I want them to operate the same as this will be my first tablet in a long time and want to make that learning curve easier.
Yes you can use this method to move data from your phone to your tablet. I will be getting the Tab S7+ as well and plan to make a video of some further ways they can link together.
I'm going from an S8 to an 22Ultra when it arrives. My question is can I still transfer data from my s8 to my new phone when the old phone will no longer have an SD card from Tmobile. I purchased an unlocked S22.
Yes you can. It will give you an option to copy all Micro SD card into to the new phone.
@@TechWithBrett, yes, I saw that in the video. But my question is, will the information (photos, etc.) return to the same location as the old device, or will the SD info be in its own file?
I wanna move my samsung s9 to z flip
Yes great video ty 👍👍
I tell it to bring over settings. Doesn't bring over settings.
Actually, even worse. This smartswitch is useless.
Same steps with tab to tab right??...however tab has no sim card because it's just wifi correct?
Thanks for a great, helpful video👍👏
That correct.
I know this video is a year old, but I have a question about transferring the SIM card. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and about to transfer the data to a Galaxy Note 20 ultra. I've watched another one of your videos that states to insert the SIM card in the new phone AFTER the transfer of data. However, there is a comment below that states (not direct quote): to insert the SIM card BEFORE transferring data, because once the new SIM card is detected in the new phone Samsung erases the phone's data. I don't know which statement is true -I'm very reluctant to activate and transfer data to my new phone because of the fear of losing anything during the transfer. (By the way, Sprint is now T-Mobile - I think my SIM card is a T-Mobile one.) PLEASE HELP! Thanks in advance!
After many years I may have changed my preferred way to do this, and this has worked well for me, this is what I would do now. Take the SIM out of the Note 9 and place it in the Note 20 Ultra. Then turn on the Note 20 Ultra and during the setup do the Smart Switch transfer, setup email and whatever else you want to set up. Then when that completes your phone will be ready to go, and if you received any text messages while the transfer was going, they will all be on your new phone. Hope that helps!
@@TechWithBrett OMG Thank you so very much. I like clear, concise information and you definitely delivered!! 😘
what if your old phone screen is broken
Smart switch is very intrusive and wouldn't let you download phone data from google one
About iPhone
At minute 6:58 says since was not able to put a micro sd card in the new phone that the old micro sd card data would get copied to the internal storage of the new phone instead. However, if I am able to put a new micro-sd card in the new phone, and I select this option, would it copy the old micro sd card data to the new micro sd card or would it default to the internal storage during the transfer?
If your new phone has a Micro SD card capability then you should not be concerned about coping what you have saved on the card. You can simply eject the card out of your old phone and insert it in the new phone so you are going to transfer or copy the stuff you have on the phone device only.
@@Revolutionized Would be true, except (I should have been more specific) the old phone's micro sd card support maximum limit is lower than the new phone's maximum supported limit and I got the newer/bigger card as a result to take advantage of that.
@@jasons7461 yes and please consider the fact that this is only one way of handling this as with cloud storage popularity, you could have at least one service like Google cloud (Google one), or Microsoft one drive or .... Dropbox etc. You can forget about SD card physically and have everything you need on the cloud 24/7 accessible to every device you permit.
Another question I only want certain stuff. Will it allow me to pick and choose
Sort of. You can choose different albums and such.
My husband has a Note 5 and I know sooner or later he will need to upgrade. Is it possible with an older phone like Note 5? He doesn’t have a ton of apps or photos just a ton of contacts and texts.
Works on every device, i remember switching from my s5 to my s10
Yep! This will still work as long as the new phone is a Samsung.
After doing the setup and smart switch from my gaaxy s20 ultra 5g over to my new galaxy s22ultra , I have to go back to each a and resign in right? Meaning username and password. What if I don't have all my passwords written down? Also wanna keep all my bookmarks?
What do you think.
Also excellent video!!!!
Best one yet.
Great question. For Bookmarks if you used Chrome you can sync them to your Google account. For your accounts, yes you will need to sign back in. Some apps give you the option to sign in with your Google account so I would choose that option. If not, you will have to try to remember your username and password or you will need to use the reset password option.
@@TechWithBrett Thanks Brett for answering. This is a good video for what I'm wanting to do....best yet and I've looked at a lot.
Concerning saving my bookmarks I know I can sync them because I am using chrome.
But, it won't work that way with wifi and usernames?
I think that's like protection in a way cuz if I lost my phone and someone got in without a reset or data transfer or smart switch, then they'd have total access to all your apps and info to all your stuff...banking and other important stuff....am I right? I haven't done my transfer yet....I ahould go through and write them all down but like 63! Or is there a way I can save them to a usb drive or something?
Thanks, your videos are awesome!
My Old Cp is broken but it's working
I'm nervous if I buy new phone and recover my all social medias account specially my Gmail account😫😭😭
Thanks
This worked great Brett transferring everything over from my Samsung S10e to my Samsung S22+......however none of my music will play on my new phone. Did I do something wrong? Thanks
Do you have just the music files on the phone? What app are you trying to play with?
@@TechWithBrett I figured it out. My music file were all .wma and I was trying to play my music with Samsung Music on my new phone. I tried using VLC and now I'm good to go. Thanks
Perfectttt!!
yes
What if I am going to be keeping my old phone too so I want both phones to have everything
When you do the transfer everything still stays on the old phone.
Hello there Brett, still use my galaxy s8😍
I am just upgrading my Galaxy S4!
Ya but what if your phone is dead and won't turn and want to transfer the SIM from that phone to the new phone ?
I used smart switch..it did not move my apps, messages..etc help! Note 10 to a galaxy ultra
Did it eventually work? You can try doing the transfer again.
@@TechWithBrett YES!!!! ❤️
NOOOOOTHING TRANSFERED AT ALLAND HALF THIS VIDEO DIDN'T APPEAR I MY PROCESS TO SWITCH FROMAN S9 PLUS TO S22 ULTRA
Nice
Most of us don't have a USB-C to USB-C cord, so the wireless transfer is the only option.
S20 to S24Ultra, Let's go.
Nobody gonna ask what's up with that MKBHD frame in the screenshots folder?
I've tried everything I can think of and they still won't connect! The old phone says to pull down from top and change the USB source but then it wants to transfer from the NEW phone to the OLD one. I'm at my wits end!
What are your phones? Have you tried the wireless version?
@@TechWithBrett - Old phone is A10e and new phone is AO3s. They're Tracfones from HSN. And yes, I've tried copying wireless.
@@TechWithBrett Question: when copying wireless, do I connect phones to my Wi-Fi or do I turn the Wi-Fi off?
When doing it wireless it will turn on the WiFi and make a connection between the two phones and stop using your home wifi until the transfer is done.
@@TechWithBrett - Thank you.
So I've got smart switch, but does that bring over all my apps especially my pintrest which I have so much saved?
It will just bring over the app, you will need to sign into your account to see all your pins.
@@TechWithBrett thanks so much.
@TechWithBrett, what if u have more than one google accounts? If u sign into ur samsung account, will ur other google accounts also be there or sync?
Yes it usually transfers over my other Google accounts after I verify the first one. If they don't come over you can add them at the end of the transfer or later in the settings.
@TechWithBrett can u please give a sumsung account tutorial and see if the other google accounts are also there? There r other people who also have more than one google account, and I just want to make sure that the other google accounts go through, and hopefully, u won't have to sign to anything.
Hello😊 my galaxy Note 10 plus the screen is broken how I can transfer everything from my old phone to y new phone? My old broken phone the screen isn't working and I have password on it. Please help anyone?
In this video, you never actually tried to open the Files On the new phone.
If u want have smart switch on your old phone
Mine keeps freezing on 99% when searching for data to transfer
(Brett, your email is showing on 12:37 on the Note20)
Thanks, I let that one go since you can find it on CZcams.
@@TechWithBrett uP
@@TechWithBrett Ohh alright, was just making sure you were aware of that.
Keep up the great work!
Watching a 28 minute video probably aint gonna help..
Do I need wifi connedction when I do transfer
No you don't. They create their own wifi connection between the 2 phones. You possibly need some data to download the SmartSwitch update.
@@TechWithBrett Then we need to first connect the new phone to WIFI!!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Why did you downgrade your Note 10+ to Note 20?
Haha! I like to try out newer devices and since the Note 20 Ultra was too big and cost too much I wanted to give the Note 20 a chance because I like the size and the flat screen. So far it is working great.
@@TechWithBrett put you did not Note 20 enough internal storage to match you S10 Note. if you got Note 20 Ultra which supports microSD memory cards it would match the S10 Note storage since it supports microSD memory cards.
Google is not make me sign in
Unmmmunmmumm1
Mmmmmn
