[Electronics-talk] Wanting to know if anyone has any idea about an android list like the phone questions list or knows anything about android phones

I went through the same dilemma but after spending a week on the android
list and seeing all of the trouble shooting and work arounds that blind
people had to use for basic functions that I can complete on the I phone, I
just went and upgraded to the I phone 6 and don't really have any regrets.
The list averages about a hundred posts a day and I was pretty overwhelmed.
My wife upgraded her contract at the same time and got the galaxy S5 so I
can compare, for me, at this point I will have to Waite till the android
talk back becomes a little more functional for my taste. If you Google the
Eyes free android list you should be able to find the subscribe information
or be able to read through the archives.

What software and hardware models of iPhone have you got now?  I have a 4s
with 32mb and the last version that started with a 7. on it now.  I read
about many problems with 8.0 and 8.0.1 and 8.0.2 so didn't update to those
operating systems.  I have heard a major version upgrade will be available
by October 20, 2014 and this should have some and maybe more than some
VoiceOver bug fixes in it.  The best way to handle an upgrade for you will
be to erase your phone after October 20, 2014 then reinstall and if you get
the same operating system version check under general software and do the
upgrade before going to the app store and hitting that purchases button to
restore your purchases.  One you've told the phone to erase and yes you're
sure, have it plugged in and leave it alone for 4 hours.  Then return and
start the reinstall process.
Some people are impatient about the erase operating so the phones don't get
cleanly erased and whatever operating system they install then is going to
run into trouble for as long as it's on the phone.

Iowa State is horrible. Including the O2 thing. And I'm not putting up with
it anymore.
