Speed up Android Smartphones


There are many ways out there in the market to speed up your android smartphone with different apps, just you have to install those apps from playstore or any other android market and after installing those application in your phone you have to press certain buttons (generally named OPTIMIZE) to speed up or optimise your android device.

 

Quiet simple!

 

But wait do they really speed up your device?

-The answer is up to a certain limit only.

As they generally freed up the RAM memory of the device by using the Low Memory Killer (LMK) which automatically frees memory by cleaning the least recently used list (LRU). These feature optimize your device by shutting down all the background apps running behind on your device but if you carefully observed the RAM memory after few minutes,(To see the Used RAM on your device, open the task manager which is operable on android smartphones by generally pressing the home button for a few second and then touch the RAM tab)

 

RAM tab

 

You can observe that for a certain time the RAM is freed up but after few minutes your device will be in the SAME condition, as it was.

Those apps only are the temporary solution of speeding up your Android smartphone, it is not the permanent solution to optimize or speed up your Android smartphone as they used the LRU list i.e. Least Recently Used List which is quite expected as the developers made there apps for all smartphone users.

There is another drawback of optimization through third part app is that the app itself uses certain amount RAM and Device memory to RUN itself on your Device.

NOTE: Each and every bit of RAM and Device memory is important, especially for those who have following memory configuration on their Android smartphone:

 

+ RAM - 1GB or Below

+ Device Internal Memory - 6GB or Below

 

But don't worry, as we are here with a solution with which you can permanently speed up your Android device by using your App Priority List (APL).

We can optimise our devices naturally or you can say manually without the help of any third party application.

As you know that there are many preinstalled apps in your device which are undeletable they can be only deleted when your device is rooted.

But there is a way to disable those pre-installed unused apps through a simple process.

3)     Tap on Application Manager

device memory

4)     Swipe three times towards the left to open ALL application manager on your device.

5)     You can see that all the apps which are installed on your device are listed here. So, our next step is to list out those apps which are not needed by you anymore.

6)     Take a pen and paper and write down those apps name which are known to you and you don’t need them (Do not open those apps from Application manager which are not known by you like the basic system apps)

Google search

7)     Let’s take an example app, say Google Search (Disabling these app can disable your google voice search and other google search features).

 

8)     Tap on Google Search.

force stop

 

9)     Tap on Force stop.

uninstall

 

10) Then Tap on Disable or Uninstall in case the app is Upgraded.
