So my phone just voice activated and texted my new gf everything I was saying to a friend.

We were talking about cooking pork tenderloin over an open fire, lol, so not a big deal but still.

It's never done that before, and I have no reason to think I pressed anything, it was in my normal pocket.

Need to figure out how to make that never happen again!
 
I wasn't like that. My husband had more freedom to come and go as he pleases. Go to concerts and spend the night at a friend's. No problem.

But, he abused it. What an idiot both of us are. Too bad I'm so old. I could go get me some rich man that was getting ready to die and keep all of his money. Just kidding. It would be too much trouble to date. I don't have it in me.
 
A woman that knows very little about phone settings,came to me.saying her keeps telling her.that she has messages. So i got into the settings.and finally found the correct settings.in which i turned off for her.now she's a happy camper.
Got a sister on law who can't get her messages. so now no one leaves her any. She can however read a text. My phone has many capabilities but I don't learn them because I would not use them and don't want to. I have a sister that photos, sends, makes movies, crazy. she's always on the damn thing.
 
I hung on to mine as long as I could. But I had to also have an Android phone because I was doing Android development. Yes you read that right...a genuine Luddite Android developer, that's me, LOL. I was also a genuine Luddite IT Director before I retired. (Migrate to Windows 8??? OVER MY DEAD BODY!!!)

It was my wife who finally got me to ditch the flip phone by buying me a top of the line Droid Turbo 2. My son, who is a Java developer for a defense contractor, held out even longer than I did.
 
I have a pretty cheap phone. My days of carrying a $800 phone are over. Now, I don't like to pay more than $80 for one. I just don't need it. I do get a case for it, but still...they always end up cracked and scratched at some point. I'm hell on my phones.
 
my phone is a $30 cheapo ATT and I treat it like what it is crap,,,,it rides in the truck almost everywhere I go on airplane mode ,signal around here is piss poor so I put it in that mode to conserve the battery,,,$27.00 and change for unlimited talk and text,,,,I don't text and I make maybe 10 calls a month on it,,,,,,ans no one has my number
 
I don't make phone calls and I don't answer calls if I can help it, my mobile is for emergency calls only, the landline is for general use but the wife is in charge of that as most/all the calls are for her, (she is doing research).
 
So yesterday me and the mutt were sitting on top of the ridge enjoying the view. My cell phone was sitting on the ground next to me and the dog put his nose on the phone and called my wife in Alaska. I've yet to figure out how he did it.

Wait until he figures out your password... boy is your dog going to spill the beans on you!
 
I like Apple. It was made for dummies and I’m not ashamed to admit I’m technologically illiterate. I was able to figure out how to use it without instructions, which they don’t come with by the way. Really, the main reason I got an iPhone was they work with my Resound hearing aids. It automatically rings and talks in my ears wirelessly. Without this I probably could not work any more with being so deaf now. I would probably have a blackberry if it was all my hearing aids could work with!
I liked what I heard recently. In America you can tell how poor someone is by how old their iPhone model is.....
