The anker 10,000s are 40 on amazon now if you decide you aren't happy with it. I just bought one and I'm really happy. It lasts FOREVER
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Yep, Anker makes a fantastic Astro series of external battery packs. The problem, once you get into a higher capacity ones - they become heavy and bulky to carry around. If you are away from a power source for awhile, it's great to keep 8k/10k/20k mAh power station for charging overnight. But for a portable use without carrying bulk/weight and extra wires - Astro Slim would be the way to go, thought those are in 3k-4k mAh capacity range.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Manipur:
It does feel a bit bulky though at 250 gms. I travel a lot in buses and trains. And not all buses have charging points. Trains do have but I'll be lucky to get a seat next to a charging point. Will be lugging it along and checking out it's charge holding capacity for the next few months. Seller has given me a 3 months warranty, being a Chinese make. They say they can't afford to give a 1 year warranty since sending this product all the way to China for replacement doesn't make much sense.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Note_2:
Let us know if it is infact 20, 000 mah. Seems promising.

So far I've charged my phone twice from this and the charge on the power bank is now at 75%.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Based from OP link, this battery was $48. I have seen a lot of CH retailers and even on ebay for a lot cheaper. You can get the same 20k mAh for $21.99 shipped to US: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-20000mA...External-Battery-Mobile-Charger-/230957180801
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Manipur:
Ah... I wish I'd seen it earlier. Then again the problem is the seller doesn't ship to India. Even if he had, shipping charges would be around $20 by UPS. And last I heard they don't ship anything with a battery in it.

Good find though. I'd be quite happy if this thing can last me just 18 months.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nerys71:
if its $21.99 let me be very clear on this

IT IS VERY LIKELY NO 20,000 MAH !!!

I seriously question if that battery is even 10,000 mah maybe 12,000 (and even then it won't be $22)

be very careful. on a lot of things like this they flat out LIE about actual capacity.

has anyone actually tested capacity in one of these? how many charges did you get and from "what level" if discharge on your phone?

2 charges from say 50% taking it down to 75% is not saying a lot for its capacity :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
No argument about it. At this price, I would consider capacity to be over exaggerated. But so does all other no-brand external battery banks. So relatively speaking this one has the highest capacity :) And it's pretty heavy, so it kind of justifies more cells. I just provided link, can't speak from a personal experience since I don't have one. But even with brand names, I wouldn't trust too many companies except for Anker, Seidio, and Mugen and few others.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] benjieming:
it takes 18hrs to charger and not chage full ,how come like that ?Do it have 2.1A or 2A usb charging port ?Try to charge faster.

Got this for $50 out the door, AT&T store.:thumbup: Manger discount :D:D

I'll say this while in Vegas and on the way there! I charged mine once on the road. Then changed 2 CRAPPLE phones, another S2, and another 2 full cycles for my phone...

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
But you are talking about quality brand name 16k mAh battery purchased from reputable AT&T store, not cheap part from ebay with a questionable capacity label and quality ;) I just got Astro 3E from Anker, 10k mAh capacity. Will review it in a day or two. Between Anker and New Trent I'm amazed how they are able to have such a compact and pocket friendly quality designs with 4.5k, 7k, and 10k capacities. And those actually deliver as they state, either 1+ charge or 2+ charge or 3 charges according to total rating.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] JimSmith94:
Glad to hear that. I bought the same one a couple weeks ago for an upcoming two week tour of Canada. Now I feel confident that the massive 16,000 mAh battery size and five USB ports will keep my Note 2, camera, and three electronic cigarette batteries going all day. :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] dharmil007:
The same thing is available for 1600INR

So can u pls tell me how long did it last ??

was it truly 20000mAh ?

is it worth a buy ? at 1600INR ?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Manipur:
For that price it is definitely worth a buy. It is not 20000 mah per se...but what the heck. I can get around 4 charges from the thing. So it's reasonable.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] dharmil007:
So u have 3100mAh battery.

Which is giving 4 charges so around 12000mAh ?

thats too low for as advertised of 20000mAh :eek: :eek: :( :(
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Manipur:
Well, u have to consider the price factor also. Then again, if you'd like to get an all day battery from your phone, it's better you buy the 3100 mah battery with flip cover that you can just put in your phone..no hassles for cable and lugging around the battery pack.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] vectron:
Battery with flip covers are not good :( I don't even think they go in capacity above 4500 mAh because it has to be thin. Plus, their charging supply is only 500 mA which is going to take you FOREVER to charge up the battery. Just factor in that 2A wall charger gets your battery full in 2-3 hours, while 500mA will take at least 4 times that long. And the biggest factor - you guys have to realize that actual capacity of ANY external battery will be 30% lower than it's label. You loose a lot of energy during the conversion due to efficiency of the electronics, thus at least 30% will be lost. Now, if you are dealing with HK no-name batteries - they have another 30%-40% label mark up just to make it look good.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Aman27deep:
I got the same battery for rupees 1350 (25$). Haven't tried it out yet. Will do.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
You should very read the reviews on this product, seems like a fire Hazzard with minimal warranty.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ypatios:
its even more bad reviews for the product ,:Failed To Charge,Three Dead Batteries,Quality of product does not meet expectations or price!!,Claim on box of 240 hours is a JOKE,DOA,two units defective, no support,I.Sound Failed Me,So much potential followed with great disappointment,Good til it leaked. ,Product Faulty-Leaking,SAVE YOUR MONEY AND THE HEADACHE, RETURNING MINE SOON...

omg all this reviews look so funny althouth those people kind of suffer ^^
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Manipur:
I'm still lucky I guess. It's been almost 2 months that I've been using this product. And I'm using it quite frequently because the place I live has a perpetual power problem. I charge the thing twice in a week and use it almost every alternate day. A full charge reduces the power level by about 25%.

It's not definitely an anker or a muigen. And I'm not endorsing the product in any way. It's a cheap product I got from eBay on the cheap and it's serving me well till now. If it last me a year, I'll be happy.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] one80oneday:
Couple questions as I'm looking for my first external battery. How do you charge the battery pack itself usually? (USB, mUSB, etc...) Can you charge the battery pack while it's charging your devices?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] nerys71:
Mind you I do not have this particular unit but similar units.

Typically they charge via USB

so far in 100% of cases (I have over a dozen different battery packs) NOT ONE can charge "AND" power something else at the same time. none.

when charging it changes "modes" and charges only. disabling the outbound usb ports.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] one80oneday:
Dang, thanks for the info. Hopefully they’ll make one that has swivel outlet plugs that can double as wall charger and battery backup.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
I don't get why companies have to lie or exaggerate capacity?? Why not just rate the battery at its total capacity and let the chips fall where they may. I won't buy a product, from any company, if I know they are doing this.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] one80oneday:
Have you tried New Trent Travelpak?

Seems to have everything I'm looking for

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] workerantDroid:
I wouldn't mind if they come with an outlet plug charger to charge directly. Instead of limiting to the USB standard.

IMO USB power standard is safe, but for charging battery pack it's too safe. They need to regulate temperature and current to make sure the battery doesn't explode, but instead of regulate they just reduce the charge to a crawl.

To cheat, to get more sell, to make un-earn money. Need I say more? As consumer we need to keep an eye out and educate ourselves, that's why I'm here to read what you guy say about this product.

Also, last I heard there is no standard on how to rate capacity of batteries.

I'm debating if I need this 20Ah power bank. My Nexus 10 has 9Ah battery and it run for about 6hrs with my normal use. This will give another 12hr of use. Oh well, I'll get one when I find a good sale on this. Just saw it for $25 but oos now.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] workerantDroid:
thanks nerys71 for the reply. Wow a lot to read and I appreciate it, but......... do you have one of this 20Ah pack? If you do, how much extra did it extend? I also ordered a pogo cable for less limitation on the power transfer.

Only time I think I will actually use this is the international flight to the other side of the planet. Those flights are so long that even movies are not enough to fill the time.

awesome... I think newegg was having the same thing for $25. I waited too long and now it's OOS. Still not sure I have any use for it. :D
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] fourpointsix:
Silly question: If all you;re doing is using this to charge your phone battery after a long day, why not just carry an extra Note 2 battery or two? It's MUCH smaller in size than the external power packs.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] workerantDroid:
idk if the Note 2 have removable battery, but I know my Nexus 10 doesn't have removable battery. It'd require an operation to replace the battery.

I got the ankers astro 3 ...its 12,000 mAh

It has 3 charging port 2 standard and one smart port..the smart port is for ipad and tablets...it reads the maximum amps allowed ..you can charge 3 devices at once it charges at a max of 4amps. ..its pretty sweet
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Henryboban:
First one i bought the charger on ebay before without brand,the capacity isn't enough as it listed, so i suggest to buy a charger with more cetificates to ensure safe and enough capacity,the best is enough capacity and intelligent output control system, it can Compatible with all Apple and Android smartphones, Tablets, GoPro Cameras, MP3 Players, Mobile Gaming Devices, Bluetooth Devices, and other USB charged devices.just like the new one i bought from google:KINKOO,this brand could offer 1 year + extra 3 months warranty.i uesd it 3 months,can charge my phone 5 times at least one week.i find they have discount now,maybe you could check it.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] serenacurry91:
I'm disgusted those companies exaggerate the capacity,i won't buy it if i know even the price is competitive.And i think you can test for the real capacity,there's some formula to calculate the conversion rate,i bought a kinkoo infinite one 8000mah on amazon three months ago with 50 bucks,i test the charging for two weeks with my iphone 5 and ipad, full charge my iphone 5 4.6 times, and the last time is from 0% to 60%.I think it's reasonable ,considering the conversion rate and wastage during transmission...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Scoosch:
The Note 2 does have a removable battery, and while replacement batteries are cheaper, you would need to sell your old spare battery and then buy a new one when you upgrade your phone. If you buy an external battery it's good for lots of things, not just your phone/tablet you have right now.

[HTC One S] csoki80:
Hi everyone, I just bought a HTC Car V100 second hand. It should work perfectly the seller said. But I have no manual for it so I can't deal with some things. Someone could tell me where can I download a manual for it? Or someone could load up one? My problem is the phone disconnects the speaker after a few minutes. But just in the car. It seems (for me!) if the wifi is on and searching, disconnects the thing. If it does I have to turn off the bluetooth on the phone turn off the speaker than back again both and than the two thing connect again. Sometimes I have to search with the phone the device and pair them again. But when I tried at home and in work it was on all day and work perfectly! Because is second hand I have no manual for it. I tried to press some buttons on the speaker and now I cant use the voice dialling neither. I don't want to throw in the bin but if I cant work out what is the problem I will. I have a HTC OneS phone and so fare I'm satisfied with the HTC. I would be very pleased if someone could help me to solve this problem. Thx. Peter

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tokaimetro:
Hi,

My name is poor noobie. I used to play with xperia X10 rooting it and intaling new roms. So I thought that I know "howto" but I was wrong.

I want to had access to system files so i have deiced to do root . I didn't install Cwm so i don't have now back up and no boot menu. So what I did, step by step :

1) I had downloaded flashtool drivers (adb), flashtool 0.9.6.0 and this one kernel - lt18i_4.1.B.0.431_kernelDowngrade

2) Then turned on debugUSB mode.

3) I have also installed all programs on my computer and paste kernel into the correct folder.

4) Then I have run flashtool. (It has found my phone, and done what I think it's suppose to done).

5) And after all of that stuff I wanted to use this rooting toolkit - but when I turned on my phone the bootlop has started - it is starting with Sony logo (even not Sony Ericsson) goes to this starting animation and than rebooting

It's killing me and I really can't find an answer, I will be glad for any help i don't what to experiment by myself to not let things go any more worse, and if it's popular problem maybe you could just give me some links (?)

Thank you once again !

To be honest, I can't just deal with Sense 4.1 Full, it takes so much of my device that I prefer to use Sense 4.1 Lite.

Can anyone extract it from a ROM (ex. Sabsa Prime 8.0) so I (or anyone else) can flash it or install it on my device?

Thx guys.
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] BADroid-z:
hope this be possible
[Desire HD Themes and Apps] -SmOgER:
Its Not something that can be easily flashed, full sense consists of many additional/enhanced widgets and files. So if you want sense lite just simply use older roms, but personally I don't feel like SP16 is much slower than SP8, unless you are comparing it to trickdroid4 or viperdhd, where full sense is clearly not the main thing slowing it down.

Hi all

My Droid 4 starts downloading updates automatically as soon as I connect to a WiFi network

But when the update reaches 28%, the phone hangs, reboots, then update starts from 0% all over again, reaches 28%, reboots... & so on.

I'm not in the US, & so not using Verizon network & dont have an account. And I cant use mobile data here, so basically there is noway that I can use the internet with my phone, because its just consumption of bandwidth & allowance for nothing.

Please give me a way to either stop updates or a solution so the phone doesn't reboot during up update.

[Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E] Dragoboss:
I believe it means you do NOT have a simlock or network lock. Else the status would probably be "1" at atlease one of them.

About your signal, have you recently flashed another firmware or ROM? Your baseband might be damaged.

Or did it NOT work when you got it in the first place? In that case you need to take it to support (probably to the company where you bought it, else to a Sony Service Center).
