#1: Keep Your Drive Half Filled

Whenever you use most apps, they will feel sluggish and suffer from “stutter”. Avoid filling the drive beyond 50% capacity (you can get away with 25% free space).

#2: Uninstall Crappy Software

Keeping a minimal number of installed software and media remains one of the cornerstones of a fast device. Fewer apps also means fewer demands on data and a longer battery life. Keep the drive clean of unneeded files.

#3: Leave the Device Idle While Plugged In For 24 Hours

Charging your battery for extended periods of time will cause some battery wear. However, provided you don’t charge overnight on a regular basis, you shouldn’t cause any battery issues. Let the device sit idle for 24 hours. If you’re lucky, this should activate its internal optimization feature.

It is also important not to use a lot of custom software meant to replace built-in software.

You may have several games installed without slowing down your phone (but be wary of those that automatically connect to the internet in order to bombard you with ads :D). However, if you install a launcher, a custom keyboard and a custom lock screen, for example, you will feel quite some serious lag.

So, remember it also matters WHAT you install and WHAT you use :)
[General Topics] aarish1:
if your phone is rooted, you can use apps like greenify and seeder to reduce lag and to improve your device's performance.
[General Topics] pixel7474:
yup

Simple things make a big difference. Totally agree with this. :good:
[General Topics] riteish08:
Yeah :cowboy:, Well said.... :good:
[General Topics] Alfanoid:
I use that too!
[General Topics] Alfanoid:
oh, I restart my Nexus 4 about once a week.

Restarting is useful!
[General Topics] drumst1x:
I've just recently started using Greenify and I think I like it, though i'm not sure if the improvement is just in my head. Will have to check out seeder.

Also will agree that reboots are nice. I'd even go so far as to suggest a full power-down/battery pull leaving the battery out for a minute, maybe once a week? But a nightly/daily reboot helps.

There is also app called LagFix (fstrim) for rooted users with 4.2.2 and under. This uses Linux command fstrim to TRIM block no longer required in SSD, more info at http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1971852. This may not work with all phone. worth a try. Android 4.3 and later already runs this command automatically when your phone is charging and ideal.

Install and remove?

About keeping the device clean.

Is it ok to install apps and then remove them? (so the device doesnt get saturated).

Or will the device eventually slow down just like Windows does?

Is just that I like to test apps and if I like them I keep them, but that involves a lot of testing and installing and removing.

Thanks in advance.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benzmar:
Hi all, I exchanged my Galaxy Note 2 for Galaxy Note 3. It's slim and fast. Few frustrating things if you guys can help me to get it resolved.

1. In app drawer when I hit menu button I could see disable optionwhi ch is greyed ou. I wo uld definitely like to see the feature of Note 2 where it gave the option to hide apps.

2. When I connect my earphones there is no bass. Is it my unit issue or all facing the same problem.

3. I got 32 GB model for 47,990 here in Chennai showroom. Is this the base model? Don't we have 16 GB model anymore?

4. What's the best casing for this unit? I want togive up the flip covers.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gupta_arth:
Hey man I also got this phone about 3 days back and it works like a charm. About the base issue its probably your phone because it's perfectly fine here . And yes this is the basic model. Only 2 variants are out - 32gb and 64gb. Casing wise I'd suggest u should buy something hard to protect the phone
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benzmar:
Thanks for the update. So do you get proper bass sounds in your earphones?

And are you able to hide apps in all apps window?

I may in that case replace my phone.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gupta_arth:
Yes proper base sound but can't hide applications
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benzmar:
Great. I tried adjusting amplifier and seems okay now. Thanks.

Just let me know if anyone cracked on hiding apps. 2

Hi,

When i play mkv's trough hdmi i keep getting audio interuptions Evert 2 seconds. Ive already installed the latest armv7 neon codec and it even worked for a short time. I don't have these probleem without hdmi.

Does anyone have thee issues too?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dibblebill:
I'll check for you when I get home tonight. Are you playing 720p, 1080p, or other video files?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XxLordxX:
Hi,

I personally don't use the HDMI on my nexus due to the screen bug, however I think your problem is with the audio decoder, try checking it in the settings of the app. It's located in Settings - Decoder, then try using the SW audio decoder, if it doesn't work you may try with another player to see if the problem really relies on the device or the app itself.

All the best,

[HTC One X+] surfatwork:
I user Insertcoin, and Swype as the default keyboard. A small niggle is that the swype keypad is also displayed for unlocking using a PIN. Entering the PIN on the Swype kaypad is a bit painful, since it is quite small.

Is there a way to make it display a different/larger keypad for PIN entry?
[HTC One X+] FreakeSport:
there are no options for changing the keyboard input settings on the lockscreen on ANY room.

That feature is yet to be implemented, either by the developers of the rom or nuance communications.

Googling your issue did not help you, did it?
[HTC One X+] surfatwork:
Unfortunately it seems to be an issue with Swiftkey taking over the lockscreen keyboard, but using a calculator layout, instead of a keypad layout. Just needs a bug fix from swiftkey, and there's a bunch of people asking for it. Until then, the only way out seems to be to revert to the HTC keyboard - I was just wondering if any of the wizards here had figured out an alternate solution.

[MENTION=5257701]FreakeSport[/MENTION], I always do my searching before asking for help here. So if I had found something, I wouldn't have posted a question. But thanks for replying - appreciate it.

No idea who ported it. It's the note app from the Galaxy Note. Good app. More responsive than the sketch app from Sony.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] nickfar2000:
Don't know when the last time you used touchwiz but as far as companies custom versions of android goes Samsung and Touchwiz is not "laggy", now if you are talking about bloat, I don't consider a actual app made by the manufacturer as part of the stock firmware and incorporated into the UI as "bloat", just as I don't consider the "small apps" in Sony's Stock firmware as bloat. Bloat is an app made by another company that's not part of the actual stock firmware such as all the apps loaded on by Verizon, At&t, etc.... SMemo is a really useful app that is VERY friendly with ram use and system resources.

Tapatalk sig: Don't cry because because it's over, smile because it happened.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Never tried it myself.

Used to connect between devices directly not through a network.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
Something like apple airdrop?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Niks151:
It is the fastest way(faster than Bluetooth) of file transfer between devices connected through Wifi direct.

But it never worked on my Xperia P :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
I never tried it :P

SIGNATURE OUTDATED. I now use honami moonwalker 4.2
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Kaushik.Vapiwala:
Basically, it's a new way to send file through phones. Samsung gives specific wifi-like menu for wifi direct but sony has given wifi direct for namesake though it works.

1. Download --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floriandraschbacher.fastfiletransfer&hl=en

2. Enable Wifi - direct

3. Select any file and send it via fast file transfer, just as you do for bluetooth.

4. It will tell you create a wifi tethering network. Don't worry it won't let other users use your internet even if they know its password.

5. Go to receiver's device and put on wifi and let it connect to your network.

6. After successfully connecting it go to the receiver device's browser and enter 192.168.43.1:8080

7. Whoa! Download would start. It takes just 5-7 minutes to send 500 mb file. This is my personal experience.

This is how I can define wifi direct ;)

Helped?? Press Thanks. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Wind07:
Whoa sounds like apple airdrop on my mac :P just that its more complex. Sounds good. Maybe a bit troublesome :p but will try

SIGNATURE OUTDATED. I now use honami moonwalker 4.2

My father has recently visited Taiwan and picked up a Dopod 900 from a street shop for a pretty cheap price. Now, I'm wondering whether it's possible to change the ROM to *any* English ROM, since I'm not that great at reading Chinese. I'd also prefer not to have a brick after the process.

Input, anyone? Thanks.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Jackson8r:
So last night I was using my phone when it froze, so I rebooted it and it got stuck on the boot animation. I tried restarting it and no luck. I then decided to go into recovery mode, and I backed up my data before wiping it to see if that was the problem. I then flashed some roms. One was the Ajk kernel, and another was gapps. Still no luck. I then began to search for a system rom to flash so I could at least boot it. I tried a few I had downloaded before, but I always received a getprop error (status 7) . Then I tried flashing an old version of JellyBam and for some reason, recovery mode didn't show any code or signs of progress nor failure, so I rebooted it and tried going back to my backup I made earlier, and it told me I had no backup data. I then went to browse for a zip to flash,and found that that JellyBam rom had completely wiped both my sd card and internal memory completely. So long story short, I lost all of my data. Also when I try to boot up normally, I'm not able to type anything because AOSP keyboard is not responding, so I cannot work on anything with my google account. I might just go back to stock and go into AT&T to see if they can do anything about it, because I needed to get it replaced anyway for some cosmetic damage. Is there anything I can do about this? Can I get my data back?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] SteveMurphy:
Practically everything in your post screams of confusion: AJK is a kernel, not a rom, and gapps are system app packages for AOSP-based ROM's, not ROM's themselves.

Stay away from Jellybam because they have been banned from XDA and are NOT supported by anyone here.

Because you've somehow jacked up your system, your best bet is probably to ODIN back to stock and start all over again. You could grab a ROM from Development and factory reset/wipe caches in a proper recovery (ie. one of the kernels packaged with an i777 ROM) and be fine, but in your case I would suggest the ODIN method to avoid any holdovers, and start again with a guaranteed clean system.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] votinh:
Buddy, I wish you a lot of luck.

Based on what you said, you've screwed it up pretty bad. I don't know how to recover your data but first, care to bring up your phone.

You should start from SCRATCH and before that, do some research of which ROM you want to use and which gapps should go along with it. Ignore the kernel for now.

since you have already used recovery software and failed to get back your lost data. As per my knowledge I suggest one utility named as Remo Recover because I have already used this utility. Hope it will be helpful for you to recover your data. Just go for this utility.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Suman_Auddy:
Hi Guys, I tried to upgrade my bro's phone from ICS to JB. It was a stock all the way through. I unlocked the BL,rooted it, install CWM and then tried to flash a JB kernel using fastboot in flashtool.

But i am getting stuck in the logo screen only,nothing after that. I have tried with almost all the available JB kernel out there without any success, finally had to give up and revert back to stock using ftf file.

Any idea why is it happening? Is there any JB rom out there which does not include flashing a JB kernel before installing the ROM?

I hate to give up now so please guys help me out.
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Attitude.SSJ:
That's because ics can't boot in jb kernel... Flash kernel... Turn off turn on... Keep pressing volume down button... You will go to recovery... From there install rom...
[Samsung Captivate Glide] davidpartay:
Well, it has come time for me to replace the phone as I feel the boot loops that I frequently encounter when restarting the phone are likely to cause me trouble.

So I have ordered a S4 Mini LTE at quite a reasonable price, and as thus I bid farewell to you guys!

Thank you again to all the guys who've worked so hard on the ROM and have provided me with the fun and games of flashing and experimenting :)

I'll try and remember everyone, but I'll probably forget, so here goes!

Bubor, TheGreaterGood, Kick Buttowski, Spyke555, Dman - you've all done great work and it is much appreciated by myself and I'm sure many of the other members on here, even if there are a few 'needy' people :D

I apologise again if I've missed anyone as I'm sure I have!

So as such... when the phone arrives hopefully by mid next week, I will be bidding you all a farewell and moving on to hopefully greater things. When I discovered Swype I effectively eliminated my desire for a slide-out keyboard, and I don't MUD or do terminal related things on the phone anymore so it's really not a necessity for me anymore. It's funny, I spent years wanting phones with full QWERTY (since at least 2006) and now I guess it's finally run its course for me. It's a pity that the market for QWERTY phones isn't bigger.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Laugher19:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] xtacb4:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] davidpartay:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] xtacb4:
I think you gonna be back to a physical keyboard, Swype is good, but it is not the same.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] davidpartay:
That's exactly the thing, I don't even remember the last time I used the physical keyboard. Maybe if I started playing the gameboy emulator again I'd miss it but probably not for long!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LaizureBoy:
I agree

I find myself hardly ever needing or using the hardware keyboard. SwiftKey works great for me
[Samsung Captivate Glide] AndyYan:
I've been using quite a variety of non-QWERTY phones but still hates either keypad being either too small or phone being too big, that's why I purchased a Glide just a month ago :) But sadly, QWERTYs are being pushed to death not only by manufacturers but also by software devs. More and more softwares today lack proper landscape support or will malfunction when doing certain interactions on QWERTY. And I'm in China where almost no one uses a QWERTY even back then, so I can feel this desperately :( :( :( Just wanna fsck Samsung who started all this big screen trend...

[Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antok.tm:
I believe that it means set cpu governor. Basically you can set how your CPU act based on various parameter.

About these parameters, I'm afraid I can't give you any advice, because everyone has different needs, and me myself, I prefer the default setting. :p
