Have pity on an olde pharte just entering the mysterious universe of the "smart phone."
I just gave up my old (very) flip phone and got a shiny new Samsung Galaxy SIII ('Droid) smart phone. Just got home with it, and I'm already in trouble.
Verizon transferred my contacts from the old phone. That was all there was on the old phone, so that was no big deal. But ... there's a problem: Several of my contacts include both a cell phone number and a home phone number. For whatever reason, the cell phone numbers all came in as the primary numbers (regardless of which was primary on the old phone) and I can call those numbers -- but there's no way to call the home phone numbers. There is no green handset icon on the lines with the home numbers. When I tap each of those, I am offered only the option of sending a text message or a G-Mail message.
Does anyone know how to set the home phone numbers so they can be called?
Second (dumb) question: How the [bleep] do I turn in Wi-Fi? I know it sucks battery life, but for things like adding apps I'd rather do it at home off my DSL Wi-Fi modem and then recharge the battery rather than use up data minutes, which are on a shared plan with me, my wife, and a music-hungry daughter.
