[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] Vinsi95:
I am gonna disclose some of the useless myths about such a great Android OS. I collected them from various sources and have put it in a single post. It has took me hours to create this. Press thanks to support me,(This post is not made to criticize/promote any brand)

1) ANDROID TASK KILLERS IMPROVE

BATTERY LIFE AND PERFORMANCE

Does your Android

smartphone regularly run out of

RAM? Not likely. Are your apps

draining battery life while running

in the background? No, because

that’s not how Android is built. Task

killers solve both of these non-

existent problems, which means they

provide a non-existent performance

boost to your existent Android.

There are a limited number of cases

where Android task killers do boost

performance.

If you kill a poorly-written app that

has a memory leak, then you might

notice a bump to your performance.

You might also notice better

performance if you kill a task that

has experienced a critical error, in

which case it will continue running

in the background even after you

switch apps.

The first problem can be solved by

uninstalling the problematic app,

while the second problem can be

solved by restarting your Android.

2) ROOTING YOUR ANDROID IS

ILLEGAL

This myth began after Apple started

getting mad at iPhone users for

jailbreaking their devices. Various

courts stepped in to determine

whether or not jailbreaking an

iPhone represented unlawful use of

the device, and the end result was

that jailbreaking an iPhone or

rooting an Android was not declared

to be illegal.

More recently, the folks who control

and enforce the Digital Millennium

Copyright Act (DMCA) stepped in to

offer their opinion on the matter,

and they declared that Android

rooting was perfectly legal on smartphones.

Remember: to date, nobody has

been ‘convicted’ of jailbreaking their

iPhone or rooting their Android.

Although there is no official law

about Android tablet rooting,

Android smartphone rooting is

perfectly legal. In fact, it can

actually be healthy for your

Android.

3) EVERYBODY USES THE SAME

VERSION OF ANDROID MADE BY

GOOGLE

Android is an open-source operating

system. That means anybody –

including you and I – is free to use

it however they want. Before releasing a

device, companies like Samsung

might install various Samsung-

related apps, like a music player or

browser, for example. Meanwhile, Amazon has changed Android to a point where it’s

virtually unrecognizable on its line of

Kindles. But yes, Kindles run

Android.

In short, just about every Android

device is different. Some are

different in minor ways, while others

completely change the look and feel

of the operating system.

4) ANDROID ISN’T AS GOOD AS IOS

ioS devices are incredibly

popular but some people have the mistaken

impression that iOS is superior to

Android in every way. Here are a few

reasons why that’s simply not true:

-The basic iOS interface hasn’t been

updated since the first release of

iPhone in 2007.

-Apple and its carrier partners use

iOS to spy on their users.

-You can’t customize iOS

-iOS doesn’t have widgets.

-iOS only supports products from

Apple.

5) CLEANING BATTERYSTATS.BIN INCREASES BATTERY LIFE

The batterystats.bin just holds the values of which app is using how much battery and displays it in the settings menu, under Battery usage. It is not at all related to the performance of the battery life.

6) ANDROID PHONE/TABLET NEED ANTIVIRUS software

Its not compulsory that every android phone must have antivirus. Most of the phones Will be non-rooted when bought, restricting super user access. So, antivirus is only needed when you have rooted your phone, to prevent the virus from gettin super user access from root.
