All I can think of is that you're doing some wonky memory intensive crap. I can't remember, on any of my devices, having my browser take a dump because of other things I'm doing in the background. I do know the stock Chrome browser on the N7 seems to pause pages, but that's why I use Dolphin and I haven't had an issue like you describe. Maybe you could start a new thread and make a video showing what you're doing and what happens so others could recreate it and maybe figure something out that works for you? Then this thread can get back to WebOS talk...
[Nexus 7 General] gwhickman:
Sweet

I would love to see webos on th n7 i love using it on my touchpad. Someone needs to get to work
[Nexus 7 General] zim2dive:
Only b/c of the lack of apps.... don't get me wrong, I do like android.. but WebOS was slick too... it was a shame to see it halted.... I haven't used Windows 8, but I can say that WebOS seemed to be worthy to survive had HP done a better job with it. It was a pleasure to use, for the limited apps it had :) (and the Android ports just weren't stable enough.... at least not for me.. tho I do greatly appreciate the efforts that the various devs made).
[Nexus 7 General] I Am Marino:
WebOS was a joy to use, apps were it's only downfall.
[Nexus 7 General] eburgess4:
I also had a touchpad that I bought on day 1 of the fire sale. I used webOS for a while until Android (cm7) was released. Overall I was pleasantly surprised by webOS. The lack of apps was probably the biggest reason I quit using it. The other thing I really missed with webOS was Widgets. I would love to see webOS development continue and become a viable phone/tablet OS.
[Nexus 7 General] edscholl:
webos rocked. There were other downfalls though, such as slow release of (crappy) phones after the og pre, slow app launching, limited api, and the late release of the ndk.

Let's face it. Nothing will compare to the true multitasking of the Nokia 3390! Play snake, and use it as an anvil all at the same time!
[Nexus 7 General] filipathtc:
I like android and i'm using it for over three years now but i have to agree with you.I hate it when my phone/tablet keeps closing my unsaved data and apps.If android just had "true multitasking" it would be the ultimate operating system.Otherwise i still think android is the best operating system you can get
[Nexus 7 General] phillip1953:
Is your "true multitasking" definition preemptive or cooperative? :)

[Nexus 7 General] downwiththebanksters:
I loved my WebOS and would love to see it on my SGSII, or anything for that matter, loved synergy but hated the non-existent app ecosystem . One negative no one ever mentions is that it takes about 3 minutes to boot. I hope Open WebOS cures that.

Thanks

Maybe damage? As long as it has an imei intact I the About Phone under status you are good to go.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] risqu3:
turn the phone of, hold volume down, home button and power it up.

check if its been flashed and what firmware its on. look for water damage, etc etc.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:
Aside from physical damage, take your sim card with you and take it for a test ride. Surf the net, make a phone call, even to voicemail. And like ready mentioned check to see if the flash counter is tripped although not a failsafe as triangle away will reset it anyway.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] FirstNoobToBrickHisPhone:
Make sure the headset jack works.

I once sold an S2 with a faulty headset jack for $450.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Sp_Ark:
You have to give more details. Probably with bootmenu? First system? I think the only way back is rsd. Flash the sbf of your region. Hope you have a backup of your data. Look at the stickies you'll find all the info.

Weighs at only 8.9oz, it pack's 12,000 mAh battery in a small package, enough to charge your mobile phones and more. Perfect for everyday use, longer trips and emergency situations.

Features:

Highest quality Li-Pol battery with capacity of 12,000mAh (LTE battery is rated as ~2,000mAh)

Dual USB outputs to charger 2 devices at the same time

Give your smartphone up to 95 hours of extra talk, internet, and video time, so you can truly enjoy what your phone can offer

2.1A output to charge your lte or tablet efficiently

Compatible with all cell phones with micro USB connection, such as Blackberry, HTC, Samsung, Motorola, LG, etc.

the battery comes with a number of different tips. This ensures that it is as universal as possible. In addition to a wall adapter and a cable for charging the battery the system includes tips for Sony PSP, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Nokia, miniUSB, microUSB and, of course, Apple mobile devices. Last year this nice array of tips would have been important. Yes, we’ve all become a bit boring with regard to what we actually carry day in and day out, but something tells me this won’t last for long. I’m not sure what new device will woo each of us, but I have no doubt there will be something.

Input:

DC 5V/1A

Output: USB1: DC 5V/1A; USB2: DC 5V/2.1A

Battery capacity: 12,000 mAh

Dimension: 5″ x 3″ x 0.92″ (127mm x 76mm x 23mm)

Weight: 8.9oz (250gram)

this battery is a beast. It has a huge charge capacity and yet it is fairly compact and light. It is also simple to use. There is one button on the top that, when depressed, shows you how much charge is available and begins the flow of current.

On one end you will see the microUSB charging port that will make sure the battery is up to a long, grueling day of use. To the left of it is a 1A USB port. This will charge your lte as ac. On the other side is the 2A USB this charges as a dc current.

And, of course, the battery can be used as a flashlight. The first time I saw an external battery with this feature I was like “Why?” Then I actually started using it and discovered that it comes in rather handy. The light on this one is bright. That, combined with the capacity a fully charged Power Bank will offer would likely mean this light could be turned on at the start of CES 2012 and still be going when it comes time for CES 2013. (Okay not so much, but you get the point.)

This Power Bank 12,000 mAh Battery is a huge battery in a small package. It is well made, feels quite sturdy, packs a punch and has pretty much all the tips you are going to need

I bought mine off ebay for 25 bucks. best 25 i have ever spent. my self with my lte. My wife with her 3D down to my ics tablets. all have fully charged and still it had juice. i leave it laying around all the time. i hardly ever have to charge it up fully.

see pics.

comes in white and black . here is link to black i bought..

Thanks for the great review man! I've been looking at other varieties of these on amazon, but the cost was just a bit too high. Can you link us to the ebay seller you got yours from?

Honestly I don't really need this since the LTE battery is so great. But I might get one for emergencies just in case! Great review!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kaos420:
the battery is great. i initially bought mine for when i went to the bronx zoo. i knew my camera was going to be on the whole time. was nice to have a power source while walking around.

Just an fyi, looks like the ebay seller OP mentioned is beginning to update the listing to $50 (which is more on par with most other battery packs in that mah range.

If you click on his auction lists, there are still some listed at ~ $25, gett'em while you can at that price.

Thanks again OP, just ordered mine.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gm2racer:
It appears that while the black unit is now $53, the white one is only $23.55. Just ordered one.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gm2racer:
Received email from the seller that there are issues with their remaining stock of these. She said that a new shipment will be getting in on Oct 16, or she offered to send a different model (10,000mAh) and a $3 refund for the price difference. I'm opting to wait for the 12,000mAh battery. I'll let everyone know how this works out...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
Ditto for me, I just wanted to add that the email was fairly apologetic and seemed genuinely interested in providing a quality product.

Also, all the listings are marked to ~$50 now. Glad we got in for half the price!

it does any usb device as long as you have the adapters. i use my mini usb cable that came with my phone with mine.but it came with a few. shoot i use my phone charger to charge the power bank as well. lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] couragedragon:
Great Value

I received mine today even though I didn't get a shipping notice so that was a nice surprise.

I'm really surprised at the build quality of the actual PowerBank. A pleasant surprise, feels nice and solid, ports are easily accessible and well placed.

The LED Flashlight is the perfect brightness for late night rummaging. It's not too bright where it would disturb someone else in the room, and bright enough to find what you need in your immediate area.

I love that I'll be able to throw this in my backpack with my phone to recharge on the go if need be.

The microUSB port attachment did break on me right away which was disappointing, you can use any standard cables to charge the Powerbank as well as from the Powerbank to your device so I'm not worried about it. All the other attachments seemed solid. I've attached a few photos for size comparison.

The seller also included a free bag of bells.... :laugh: No idea why, but there's photo of those too :D

EDIT: Holy crap, sorry about the image size, I thought they would resize to the column. Here's the link to the gallery: http://imgur.com/a/7173b#0

Mine came with bells too!?!? Just a little warning for those that may be stumbling onto this thread, I posted this over on slickdeals (with a link back here). A couple of those guys have pointed out that the cells that make up this pack may be previously used, so this may not be as good of a deal as it seems if the pack does not last or doesn't have the capacity advertised.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kaos420:
idk man ive had mine like 2 months now. it holds the charge for awhile. As i said the wifes phone and both our tablets also my phone all have charged off a single charge. for what i paid. well worth it. i think the true output figures out to 11400mAh

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigMosley:
Hope it didn't mess you up to bad! My power didn't even go out (DC). I was thinking about getting another one just because it's so cheap so I'll have 24000mah for the zombie apocalypse.

Not too bad here in WV (south of Hagerstown), but we did lose power for about 5 hrs. It just was more of a wake up call. We had a lot of wind and rain. A bunch of trees came down, and the neighborhood had siding and shingles scattered around. It could have been a lot worse; nothing like the coast though.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] raclimja:
the output says 5.3V

evo 4g lte charger is 5.0V

if the output rating of that power bank is true, that would be very damaging and dangerous for your phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigMosley:
Is this true? Anyone want to weigh in on it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kaos420:

I have the note 2 not the evo 4g lte. But when i googled this powerbank i found this thread so i decided to post and share.

Well my phone has a 3100mah battery and this battery pack can only charge the note 2 1.5 times before it completely dies. That is not right knowing the battery pack holds 12000mah. I would be happy if I can charge the phone 3 times but no. I think it doesn't hold near 6000mah capacity. Anyway, i returned the unit and it will be replaced. I hope the replacement is going to be better.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Honusnap:
There are some basics concepts in electricity that you need to understand, imagine that the pack is 12000mah (3.7V), that possible since these so called "AA" batteries are in fact 18650 batteries that are rated ... let's say between 1600mah and 3000mah => four 3000mah 18650 give you 12000 mah (3.7V)... ok for that.

Now the LTE got a 1500mah (3.7V) battery.... the mistake is to imagine that your "Power bank" can charge 12000/1500 = 8 times, this is simply not possible....

Power Bank : 12000mah (3.7V) (let's it is the real capacity)

LTE : 1500mah (3.7V) (let's say they are spot on too)

Best case :

1 - Energy : 12Ah * 3.7V = 44.4Wh <= Energy stored in the power bank

2 - You loose 10% in the conversion from 3.7V ( internal batteries ) to 5V ( USB port ) => 44.4Wh * 0.9 = 39,96Wh

3 - You loose 10% in the conversion from 5V ( USB port ) to 3.7V (internal battery of the phone, iThink.. whatever) => 39,96Wh*0.9 = 35.96Wh

4 - The LTE battery energy : 1,5Ah*3.7V = 5,55Wh

Times recharging : 35,96Wh/5.55Wh = a little less than 6.5 Times

Worst case :

1 - Energy : 11Ah * 3.7V = 40,7Wh <= let's say they overestimate their batteries

2 - You loose 20% in the conversion from 3.7V to 5V => 40,7Wh * 0.8 = 32,56Wh ( low efficiency convertor)

3 - You loose 15% in the conversion from 5V to 3.7V => 32,56Wh*0.85 = 27,68Wh (****ty device..:) )

4 - The LTE battery energy : 1,5Ah*3.7V = 5,55Wh (lets say this one is ok)

Times recharging : 27,68Wh/5.55Wh = a little less more than 5 Times

==> General conclusion, with a 12Ah (3.7V) powerbank you can recharge a fully depleted 1500mah (3.7V) between 5 and 6.5 times.

To be fair... the capacity of these banks should be rated under 5V and not 3.7V, the 12Ah (3.7V) would become a 8Ah (5V). To be more efficient the batteries inside these pack should be 5V... but they are not as common as the 3.7 (18650 is really everywhere now)

PS : If the device that needs to be charged got a 5V battery... the second conversion take near no energy (modern convertors).

About the note 2... its battery is 3100mah (3.7V)

Best case : 35,96Wh/(3,1*3.7) = 3,13 times

Worst case : 27,68Wh/(3,1*3.7) = 2,4 times

==> So your experience of a 2,5 times recharge times sounds pretty normal to me.

Question

Can someone help me I'm confused. Are these type of products battery chargers, external batteries, or both? I was looking for one today and because of the description I couldn't figure it out. I'm looking for something to plug my phone into while it is fully charged and have that thing deplete its battery before my battery is touched. Does that make sense?
