iPhone Troubles

Went to the LA fitness and dropped my iPhone and now it has a cracked screen as a result.

I searched for a Screen repair in the neighborhood on Yelp.

But because all the reviews were different, per Repair center, I couldn’t decide where I needed to go.

So I thought about waiting until I was back in Belgium and bring it to IHEAL.

But then I wanted to download an app, but I couldn’t, because it didn’t have enough capacity.

So it was time for a new one and went to the Apple Store in Santa Monica.

Such a beautiful store!!

Even at 9PM you can follow some free sessions.
That night it was a video editing session

But it wasn’t interesting, so i went to an Apple “genius”, to get an Iphone 6.

After wandering around, I went home, synced it and “play” with it.

After syncing it and installing some extra apps, it still has enough capacity for extra’s.
Lovin it!

Bought a battery solution

The battery of my phone died on the way to the Air + Style event.

And that was a problem because:
– I had to use my phone as a GPS, because I didn’t know the direction to get to the event.
– It was my only way communicate with the people I was going to meet at the event.
– I didn’t know how to get home, after the event.

So I had to get a backup solution, for the next time.

This is what I eventually bought:

  • A Sim card adapter
    so i could use my American Sim card in my other phone.

  • Backup charger with build in lightning- and micro USB cable.
    So I could charge my phone everywhere or in case of emergency.

  • And a Car charger

Like all Americans, I bought it all on Amazon for a quick delivery.
You can select what ever you want, deliver today, deliver tomorrow and so on.

I wasn’t in a hurry so I selected the normal delivery option.

But one day later FedEx arrived, with my order.
