Questions about my new Samsung Galaxy 5

[GPIDEAL]

Upgraded from my old BB.

These are my questions for now:

1. Is there a way to export/import/transfer the contents of my Password Keeper & Memos from my BB to my Galaxy phone?

2. Do I need to install an AV and/or MW app? Which one? (Comments about such apps are from opposite sides of the spectrum. Critics don't like the permissions but one would think that free, big name apps have been endorsed by Samsung as safe.)

3. 30 minutes is the longest screen lock re-set time. Or can I set a longer one but don't know how?


Thank you all for your help.

I can answer #3. Go into your settings, display, then to screen timeout. You can choose the different time lengths there.

For #2 you don't need to. IF you tend to download all sorts of random things, you may want to though. I havn't had AV on any of my phones.


For #1, there may be an app that does it. No guarantees though

#1 is just another reason I chose to stay with BB and get the Z30. I have so many Memos and entries in my Password Keeper it would take forever to transfer them manually.

Screen timeout is different than screen lock my dear.

I want a longer auto screen lock than 30 minutes. (I do have option of locking on demand by pressing the power key).

I run Clean Master on my phone. Don't know if it's the same people (Piriform) who does Ccleaner for Windows, but the icon and functionality are similar. Basically, it scans for junk files on your Android and in memory, and gets rid of them. I also notice that when I download a new app now, Clean Master will scan it and declare it safe before it installs.

Wecome to the Android ecosystem!

Another good app is the Zedge app for changing your ringtones/wallpapers/notifications. You find that like the BB, there are 3 levels of notifications. There's the default/system assigned, there's the app leve, and there's contact level.

Thank you, however, does Clean Master delete your saved usernames for online banking or other websites? I wouldn't want that.
