Suddenly my tablet is showing a vibrate icon for a phone (upper right corner). Of course, I don't use my tablet for a phone. Not sure why the icon appeared. I looked in settings for sound, don't see anything to help get rid of the icon. Any ideas?

Second question. I got my first cellphone this year....an Android. Just wondering ... whenever I need to get a new Android cellphone, will my contacts automatically transfer over to the new cellphone?

Thanks for any help.

I believe if you saved your contacts onto the SIM card not the mobile everything will automatically transfer. If you saved contacts on phone they will not transfer. Jesus transfers His ability onto our SIM card (our soul)

I don't have a sim card. Not really familiar with it or how you place stuff on it. I know there is a little tray that will open, apparently with a thin silver tool they give with the phone.

It seems there are various sizes of sim cards and you cut out the size you need?

My phone might outlast me...just got the phone and I don't have to charge it much, maybe every five or so days.

Thanks for replying.

Thankfully it's not vibrating...so far anyhow! Just wondering why the symbol appeared...at first I didn't even know what it meant!
