Android running slow or Saying Low space? Simple things to do to fix-

By: Mr Guru

So you have either your new Handset (Cell Phone) and it snaps right on, websites run fast, apps pop right up and no low space warnings right?- or you are already a step ahead in the problem at hand with your phone blasting with low space warnings or your android is just completely functioning with errors. Whichever your case may be its a simple fix and can be done in no time.To give you an understanding of your problem and how to always prevent it ill explain a few things in brief detail.

• What is Cache?-A collection of items of the same type stored in a hidden or inaccessible place.  Over time, your programs write to the app cache on your phone and eat up precious system resources while slowing everything down.

*It is perfectly OK and will not damage your system as these are not system files**In simple form these are like cookies or build up files from your history of actions on devices or computers.

• How to delete Cache?- 

1. One main way to access and clean cache manually: Go to your settings on your smart phone scroll until you see applications/application manager select that. Now you should see all of your apps installed on your phone, click one and scroll a tad bit down you will see the stats of the app and cache stats. Anything usually over 2.0Mb is more than enough space being taking up by multiple apps so id say to test it out press clear cache button. Walla, one way to manually clean cache as you if you choose you may go back and select each one and do same for. (Time consuming) But this will surely help you run your smart phone like new!
2. THE BEST, simplest way is to visit your Android market and search for a Cache cleaner. I recommend Cache Cleaner Pro which of coarse is not free on market. But if you cant get it grab any cache cleaner with 4 or more star ratings. Be sure to set up schedules to clean your cache so that you do not have to manually do them.
3. The more technical way is to have your phone rooted which allow full access and privileges to files and to control your android speeds. With rooting your phone you will be able to find kernels that give add-ins to cleaning cache and dalivik cache.

• Does Deleting Apps help?- Yes, deleting unused apps or large apps also help. If you have not done so already moving apps to your SD cards helps tremendously also. Simply go back to settings and apps and if possible (If allowed) move it to the SD. Most user files can be moved and system files cannot unless your phone is rooted. Move as many as possible but remember, this will take up space where you most likely save your music which are some of the most biggest files you will access.

Most likely by the time you have completed those simple steps your warning of low space has cleared if not, I have a few more steps that are a little more advance but simple all in same.

First go to android market and download Astro File manager (I use most its simple). Once downloaded select Sdcard1 usually title in that format. Afterwards you shall see all files on your Android be careful in this place this is where your at risk of damaging your android (OK though I'M HERE 4 U). Select Downloads and delete anything you don't use or old music and so forth. I like Astro as it gives you ability to multi- select and many more. Once done go back and select your photo location and delete any old photo you can bare not keeping most likely if you use social networking for personal use you almost delete them all as its OK because most of your pictures are already backed up on the sites.

I am more than sure at this point your phone shall be running smooth with enough space to operate like normal. If still having problems email me as i respond within 2-3 hours and can troubleshoot you myself 5epmgllc@Gmail.com "Title" (Android problems)
