The main reasons are often linked to:
1. CPU Overload
2. RAM Problems
3. Internal storage issues
Additionally, phone performance may be affected by:
1. Bad battery
2. Faulty motherboard
3. Incorrect OS Updates
Very old phones (more than 4 or 5 years old) will suffer from compatibility issues by default, as new operating systems and apps require phones with updated hardware to work properly. Applications have also evolved and become memory and processor intensive to run properly. As a result, very old Android phones may lag behind simply because the hardware isn't able to keep up with today's apps and operating systems.
However, the majority of problems encountered on phones only 2 to 4 years old can be fixed in several steps. Go through the video and see how identifying apps that are consuming a lot of RAM, storage, or processing and removing them can greatly affect performance.
Periodically deleting very old WhatsApp, SMS or Skype conversations containing many messages can significantly improve the rapid launch of applications.
Monitoring background activity and data consumption through various apps in the Play Store can also help uncover apps that are malicious and likely consuming memory and processing power, thereby slowing down your Android smartphone.
Free up your phone's storage space and make sure it's not clogged. Internal memory is often required by Android smartphones to launch applications quickly and perform tasks efficiently. Filling your smartphone with content will hamper your phone's performance. Use applications like ES Disk Analyzer to identify redundant content and remove it.
Install LITE versions of apps like Facebook, Facebook Messenger, etc. to save space. Use the Hermit app to create a lite version of some of the most popular smartphone apps and uninstall their current version to save space.
To improve the performance of your Android smartphone and make it faster, it is also imperative to keep your applications and operating system up to date. Sometimes this can also be the cause of the problem, but this is only if your smartphone is very old and has lost the ability to support new apps. Otherwise, always keep your operating system and applications up to date.
Additionally, keeping a clean and minimal home screen with a simple wallpaper can be a great tip to save money and speed things up.
Installing a third-party home screen replacement app like Nova, ADW, Aviate, Lawnchair, or CPL Launcher can significantly improve performance and at the same time provide you with tons of customization options.
If nothing works, last resort:
1. Factory reset your phone: Make sure to backup your phone with all its contents.
2. Replace your battery – sometimes old batteries start delivering faulty voltage or current that degrades performance.
3. Faulty motherboard or circuit problem – Bad luck! Buy a new phone instead.
