I am a substitute teacher who relies on my phone for everything--getting jobs, gps (since mine was stolen), and keeping up with my life while working. Well, my phone has been somewhat on the blink, and I thought of doing a factory reset, but I decided I would put up with its issues since it basically worked.
Well, today I turned it off when I couldn't get a network connection. I turned it back on, and the screen went black. I took the battery out several times. I did my best to reset it, but to no avail. Well, I didn't despair. I figured I would get a new phone at Walmart. I have a G1 which of course is no longer made, But I figured it would be all right. I was so glad I was at a job where I did not have to rely on a GPS nor look for jobs--I have one for Wednesday.
I went to Walmart. Good prices, but after several minutes it was discovered that I was not eligible for an upgrade. It would cost 500 dollars! No thank you. They encouraged me to contact T-mobile. I hoped and prayed I could fix it. I did not panic like I often do. I knew it would be all right.
I came home and looked up how to factory reset my phone. I tried it, and I seriously doubted it worked. I was busy looking up the T-mobile website, and thank the Lord, my phone suddenly worked! God was so good!! I can't get a signal here so I have to wait till tomorrow until to get it going again, but it is like having a new phone. So I have to download everything again, but big deal.
So in the midst of several twilight moments, God truly answered prayer. I am so glad cares about every aspect of our lives!
Whew! That's such a blessing! Mobile phones are just so necessary these days- our grandparents would laugh at our need of them.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad it all worked out for you!!
