How is the ballistic nylon holding up?

Pretty painless & simple. I backed up all my pics, music & important files to my laptop. I turned off the Backup Apps & Data option on the old phone and then turned it off. Popped my SIM in the new phone & activated....with no Google account. As soon as it activated I downloaded 5.1 and let it update, then did a FDR and activated a second time with my Google account and started downloading & setting up my apps a few at a time. Pretty smooth. Battery life is not as good as I expected, but that's probably because of 5.1.....and using the phone quite a bit to get used to it.

I personally like it better that way. takes longer to set up, but I pick & choose which apps I want. I normally find that I don't need all of the apps I had on the previous phone...at least not right away. I add them over time if I do have a need. That's just me though, if you want them to automatically download & they don't then that would be a bummer. Hope you have fun!
I always do a premptive uninstall of any apps I don't want to carry over.
That ONE time I did an FDR for my Gallery issues and every app reinstalled...I was ecstatic. Nice bragging point for the iTunes crowd. Backup and Restore with a computer?!?! We don't need no stinking computer!
