Help Upgraded to Charge, how did u transfer data?

So for all u who upgraded to the Charge, how did u transfer apps, contacts, calendar?

I backed up my apps with Titanium, then transfered the backup file to my Charge via USB and a computer. Unfortunately only 35 out of the 86 apps I tried to restore would successfully restore for some reason. If anyone has a better suggestion I'm all ears.

Contacts and calendar will automatically transfer over if you used gmail contacts and calendar. Never use the phone setting, it doesnt sync with anything and stays on the phone.

as mentioned above, (on a computer not the phone) log into your google account, go to gmail, go to contacts, make sure all the contacts you want are in there, if not add them there. then when you set up your google account on the charge they will all come back, and if you add a contact on the phone later, make sure you choose the type as "google" instead of "phone" or anything else, then you will always have your contacts no matter what

as far as apps, you are better off just making a list of what apps you really wanted to keep and just reinstall from the market, using Titanium Backup to go across phones can lead to problems and is not advised by me and i use it regularly.....it's not a big deal, spend a couple hours with your new phone installing what you want. it will help you get to know your new phone better anyways. if you go to the market and hit the menu button on your phone and go to "my apps" you will get at least a partial list of apps you have installed before or purchased before, it's a good place to start
