Samsung Galaxy S22, I didn't buy it my boss upgraded me as I was the only one in the office who has kept the same phone for 5 years. Now I know why !!! Anyway, check out the price. I won't be able to take it out of my bag in public for fear of getting mugged

[Gina M]

I must sharpen my fingers and check before I post reply

However it does get a smiley

Happens to me all the time. I have said some of the most stupid things on here then tried to delete, then just say "who did that, it wasn't me"

I am getting a charger delivered to me on Monday from the phone company. All I know is I can't charge it and I am sitting here in miserable city as I am missing out on all my WhatsApp conversations. One of two things will happen on Monday evening. I will get 60 messages asking me where I have been OR I will have none as nobody has noticed

Only one lost and I was left with 2 dodgy ones. So I've bought a supply of spare ones now so I don't have that problem again

I bought these so we could use our new iPhone cables

They are the wrong way around for what she needs, the male part needs to be USB type C

 

[Beltie]

No, because the cable which comes with the phone is USB-C to USB-C. I have the same adapters.

Yes, because the phone requires a male end to the charge cable, I'm guessing her old charge cable has the older USB micro b at the phone end.

I have a solar charger which has 5 different ports need to remember to take it with me tomorrow.
I have numerous leads, set upstairs, set in my snug a set in my 'power lead bag' and a set in the motorhome, still had to borrow John's Iphone lead when we were away as phone needed to update and i only had a generic lead in the van oops.

 

[Northernraider]

Been up on the roof this morning cleaning solar panels and putting conduit up to tidy up the mass of cables .. looks a bit better now

Where can I get a cheap portable USB powered router to connect to my WiFi aerial?

I got one of those Lebara mobile Sims for my tablet but if I had a router I'd get another for that to give me extra data when travelling

The problem with buying a UK sourced mifi is the difficulty getting a unit with external antenna connections.

I bought this off AliExpress
https://m.aliexpress.com/item/40012...c06ea6040ed8de2a0f630a7b4db&afSmartRedirect=y

Cheaper than UK version and guaranteed antenna connections.

Better, faster models are now available but my point is buying from China/AliExpress is ok.

 

[Gina M]

And is that a work phone with all personal stuff on it….

Yes. I get your point. Every time someone leaves they have to obviously return the phone (mostly male) you would not believe some of the stuff I have seen on those phones
