"Hey,let's go download some files over the wifi,"Nijo tells me."Great Idea,i really need to furnish my playlist,lets go."I tell him. So we take seats and activate our browsing mode.5 minutes later.."Oh no!The progress bar has stuck on 99% !Nijo is Clearly getting impatient.I tell him to exercise patience.10 minutes later,his phone progress bar is still stuck at 99%.I advice him to Cancel the file,but as he's just about to press the cancel button,he gets a FILE DOWNLOADED SUCCESSFUL notification.Nijo sighs with heavy relief.I bet this has occurred to you.I know of people who smashed their phones because of the 99% .So why 99%??
