I will be scrolling...

    I observed that when I charge my phone, the battery percent stuck. I pull out from plug then I connect the charger to the laptop and it shows correctly (for examble it stuck at 95% but the battery seems completely charged and so it is when I connect it to the laptop). What's the problem? o_O

    iPhone SE vs 5S: Which One to Choose?

    I'd say I have no interest to switch iPhone 6S back to smaller iPhone SE/5S, but can deny that it's good choice for iPhone starter. One of my friends is really sick of using Android phones, and she's going to have her first iPhone. NOT considering 6 or 6S, so SE or 5S? Appreciate you guys advice.

    AT&T Unlock Question

    I am now eligible to unlock my 5S through AT&T. If I do go through the hassle of unlocking my phone, will I continue to receive carrier upgrades as AT&T makes them available? I plan on keeping the phone active on the AT&T network on a monthly basis.
