If i swop my phone from my iphone 5 to my old galaxy s2 and search for it in the car

as you do and add it will i have to change my stored command as it will be the same sim.

Also can i just do the same back like never ending,search,add on blutooth over and over.

Cheers.

Good move going back to your S2 ;)

Totally agree :P

Your Bluetooth name I'll be different so it will likely recognise it as a whole new phone and need re setting up even if its the same sim

I have had enough with Itunes and stuff,all itunes this itunes that,good phone just Apple as a firm.

Give it a SD card.

Apple are money grabbing and my old s2 you can do anything with it.

So easy to do,remove one and add the other,job done and works great in my car.

I went from an S2 like you to iphone 5 lasted 4 weeks and hated it that I went back to S2 before finally upgrading to the nexus 5. Would never touch Apple with a bargepole again. So good choice, Vlad it was a sinche to get it switched over and working with the car.

I believe if you want to get photos that have been uploaded from your phone to your drive you wouldn't link the phone up to the PC, you would log into the Drive through your PC's interent browser using your accounts credentials, then you should be able to download them to the PC.

So if it's Google Drive (I'm assuming) login here on your PC with the same email and password you use for your phone and they should all be in there ready to download.

However if they are just stored on your phone sometimes android devices need you to unlock USB Debugging before they will connect to your PC through USB here's how, (no idea why this was introduced)
