Having A Slow Android Phone?: Here Is What You Should Do by MayorVal: 6:46pm On Mar 30, 2019
A slow android phone performance can sometimes be frustrating. Somtimes, you just want to smash the device. Well, don’t. Solutions to that are in this article.

There are some basic common reasons why Android phones become slow. Let’s take a look at them: both the hardware and software issues alike. Having a slow android phone? Here are the causes and what you need to do to fix them.

1. Insufficient Internal Storage (ROM)
It is an irrefutable fact that android makes use of all available storage within the device. Which includes ROM (Internal storage), RAM (Memory storage), and SD Card (External storage).

So, insufficient internal storage causes for a slow android phone performance. And when this happens, your phone will start using it’s RAM (secondary storage) or SD Card (external storage). If this occurs, you’re device starts switching between primary and secondary storages run various programs which results in a drastic slow android phone performance.

2. Android Phone Update – Firmware
If your phone becomes slow after an update, the manufacturer of your phone is to blame for releasing a purely optimized update. If this occurs here’s what to do to fix it:

Perform a factory reset. Sometimes apps and configurations that you’ve done before an update gets messed up. Factory resetting a phone can potentially fix this problem.
Root your android phone and remove unnecessary bloatware apps (system apps). Usually, you can’t remove pre-installed apps. The only way to remove these apps it’s by rooting your phone. However, do remember that rooting an android comes with various risks.

3. Insufficient Memory (RAM)
The RAM, mainly used up by both the OS and application software. Android phones that come with bigger RAM capacity can run more complex software and multiple applications at the same time. Though phone RAM is probably the least component that would make you have a slowandroid phone, you will suffer from the following issues if your phone’s RAM is low:

>Random app crash
>Laggy app performance
>Phone fully closes an app running at the background when running another app
