Keep your Android optimized

Posted by ctitanic on October 7, 2009 – 11:03 am  Share

AndroidGuys has put together a list of tips to keep your Android phone optimized. 

This is simply a general list of things that I notice on new users’ phones that really brings them to a stand-still. (Especially when you are guilty of all of them at once!)  I understand that everyone’s experience of their Android phone and what they use it for is different; however, the more you give your droid to think about at once, the less efficiently it thinks.  If you remember this very general rule, you are most likely going to be able to trouble shoot or tweak things on your own to be back in tip-top shape in no time.

He is absolutely right. I have seen this a few times already, phones overloaded with applications that I call vampires because they suck all the resources available in the phone.

  • A lot of those tips could apply equally well to Windows Mobile (and possibly other smart phones). Multi-tasking overload is one of the reasons why Apple disallows third-party multi-tasking.

    Personally, I think learning how to exit (or kill) apps is better, but that has a little learning curve.
