I’d been using the Windows Phone for a while so as expected, there are teething pains between me and Android. The downside of Android being so customizable is the fact settings can be different from one OEM to the next, even though you have the same android version on it. I have asked great and… Continue reading My Unanswered Android Questions

Nokia Lumia 930 Hardware Woes
I recently sent my lumia 930 for repair because the screen was going blank intermittently whenever I made calls. This issue is apparently because of the loose proximity sensor.
