I have noticed on my phone which i use most of the time that if I minimize the browser, go to another screen and let the forums sit in the back ground without being the active window the server reads it as the window is closed and logs me out but I think that is normal
It really seems to vary from phone to phone. On my phone (Android) I just opened Google Chrome, logged in, and surfed the site. I switched tabs, came back, and I was still logged in. Then I closed Chrome, opened Firefox, surfed a bit, closed Firefox, opened Chrome up again and I was still logged in.
So there's no hard and fast rule about it. There are standards that are set for the way things are supposed to be done by browsers but browsers famously make up their own rules.
