Yes, it's like your PC. Basically, if the virtual memory is use more, then you phone will start to face some performance issue.

Sometimes, some process might have "hang" and hogging the processor or ram, best is to install the "System Info Widget" which allows you to monitor the processor and ram usage in percentage in your Desktop. You can also use "Conky" to view in details. If you know how you can manually kill the process or use HTOP app. Basically if you're using Windows, it's like killing monitoring and killing processes in the Task Manager (CTRL+ALT+DEL).

For easier way, just restart the phone.

The DC-11 description/manual mentioned it can only fully charge a 900mah battery. So, it cannot fully charge the N900.

Source from the web mentioned that the DC-11 is packed with a 1500mah battery.

MY personal advice: Try NOT to drain the DC-11 battery completely. Let's say you know the DC-11 took about 2 hours before it run out of battery, try to stop using it earlier. It should be a Li-Ion or Li-Poly battery, so it's safer not to drain it completely, altough I think it should have some prevention in place (e.g. will not charge if the battery is below say 10%?). Just my personal advice to be safe.

i also faced the problem of restart. especially when i open few browsers, conky, a total of 5-6 programs running behind. one of the browser will be youtube, then if feel warm and suddenly will restart itself. i am wondering issit loading too much and out of memory.. but if open 1-2 browser only then it will not happen. and this only happen occasionally not everything like tis..

may i know for the rubberised case, is it a soft type or hard rubber type? cos if hard type, and its not very covenient for swapping battery. i got one crystal case. i don use it as if i always take out and put back the case to swap the battery. it will scratch the phone especially the holding part of the case... but for those who never open the back cover, then hard case will be fine.. just my opinion..

another way u can do this is to make your phone as mass storage and reformat it using your computer

by using that way, all the data like history, bookmark, setting, everything will gone? how abt the firmware? need to reflash again after reformat using tat way?

http://cgi.ebay.com.my/Protech-Full-Body-S...=item439d3aa17e

i got another type 'imask' which abt rm70+ but not yet use.keep as spare in case i wan change it... i l ike abt protech because it cover side of the phone and not like some brand only top and bottom part..but some part of the sticker got like not so accurate and one of the side sticker i think the hole they forgot to cut also lol..
