Reduce Lag In Android [ROOT/NON-ROOT]

Hi , smartphone users or should i say Android users ?

• You probably would have purchased your smartphone after doing hours of research in the internet about its specs , performance and i can say that you've read more than 50 user reviews about the phone , Right ?

• One of your main concern would be RAM (2 GB min) as it is directly related to your phone's performance speed .At first you can't find a lag or glitch in your smartphone it will be smooth as butter . Well , it's manufactured that way.

When the Problem Starts

• It would be 5 - 8 months since your purchase and now you will be starting to experience performance degradation and there will be lags here and there while you swipe through the menu or when you dial a number .

• Here's the problem , android is all about background tasks just visit your running apps section in your settings . You would probably find a bunch of apps running and using the RAM without your permission . Damn , that's bad right ?

Some apps that you haven't used in decades , even those guys will be running behind the screen and eating your RAM/Memory .

Solution 1:

> Uninstall unused apps(Rarely Used) or useless apps that you won't need right now
(You can always download it from playstore when you need it )

> Stop using RAM cleaners like Cleaner Master etc , they are actually ineffective as the apps tend to restart immediately after it is closed which probably increases the CPU load.

> I'll tell you more about how RAM cleaners are ineffective in my next post.

Solution 2 [For both Non-Rooted & Rooted devices] :

> Use Greenify (PlayStore Link)

What Greenify does ?

Greenify is actually a battery saver but it saves your RAM too.

• Please note that fstrim output depends on kernel and device. It works fine unless you see errors. You might see big amounts of bytes, zero amount or repeating amount. All are fine! Read fstrim manual to understand why all these outputs are valid.
