Can I get pics without card from old phone

Connect it to a PC and go into the settings. Find the Build Number and tap it seven times. That opens up the Developer Options which also gives you the chance to set "USB Debugging" when connected to a computer. That should give you all the access you need to move the photos but the messages might be difficult.

I'll mess around wit that problem later and post again if no-one else gets in first.

if the old phone is an android one. Just connect it to a PC and you can find your old pics in the pictures folder. Other os such as blackberry and ios wud just need you to download their desktop app.
