Yeah, that's what I did (though the first time I didn't hold it long enough and so was being driven batty because it SEEMED to restart, but then still showed up with the changed-not-factory network names!). It's late, so I'll have to figure out where I went wrong later (I think it was in the trying to set up the USB drive to be Time Machine, which is SUPPOSE to work/be easy, but I think screwed everything up). As long as it's working for the next week while I'm gone, otherwise I'd feel awful leaving my roommate with no internet!
Mal: You tell me right now, little Kaylee, you really think you can do this? Kaylee: Sure. Yeah. I think so. 'Sides, if I mess up, not like you'll be able to yell at me.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I've got my iPhone 6 all set up with everything that was on my old 4s, except for one large video. I suspect I may have accidentally deleted it from the new one.
How can I get the video over to the new phone without starting over? I did upload the video from the old phone onto iCloud, and now I can see it in the "Shared" tab on Photos, but I want to download it onto the phone. Even just getting it so that I could use it as a source in the iMovie app would be great.

I think I found a workaround. I used the new iCloud program on my PC to grab the video, then I copied it into iTunes and included it in the Movies sync. Ideally, I wanted it to show up in the photos app, but at least I can edit it with iMovie.

Quisp: Actually, that didn't quite work. I could watch the video in the Videos app, but it still wasn't available in iMovie for editing. I copied it into the iMovie folder under the iCloud Drive on my PC, and that did the trick.

BTW, Jon, thanks for suggest pyTivo to me. I found a forum with a page that took me by the hand through the installation, and it's working like a charm! (I just have to remember to not let the computer go to sleep while I'm transferring.)

Great! I've got pyTivo on my Synology server now, and I couldn't be happier.

So I'm selling our old iPhone 4s's on eBay and someone has asked me, "Could you send me the MEID number so I can see if will work on my service?" This thread on eBay makes me nervous to give out this information. Anyone have any knowledge on this subject?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

But then the answer just talks about not sharing your ESN number.
eta:
I really don't know about this stuff--I just googled. The link looks similar to what people on the eBay thread are saying.

Eh, I just told him I'm not comfortable giving out the MEID number, but if he tells me what service he has, I'll check for him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I just looked at the new Note in Best Buy and I'm still drooling - even the 10"one.
