How to make Android faster, more productive and safer than the iPhone! Smartphone for pumping. We turn an inexpensive buggy Android device into a great smartphone How to make your phone more powerful

Each of us knows the effect of novelty. For the first days and even weeks, you adore the thing you bought. You handle it carefully, you blow off dust particles from it. But over time, the thing gets boring and sometimes even annoying.

The same goes for our smartphones. But a smartphone, as a rule, is a rather expensive thing, and very often only rich people can change it. If you do not consider yourself to be such, then you can return the effect of novelty with the help. You can also bring back the joy of using your phone by dramatically changing its settings and the look of the system.

You've probably already heard that for serious changes in the smartphone, you need to get root access, that is, full access to all system settings. But this is not the case! Let's see how you can change your smartphone without losing your warranty.

Changing the home screen

Most often, you see exactly the home screen of your smartphone. After all, this is where the icons of the programs that you often need are located. Also, most likely, there are widgets that are important to you. This means that you should start changing the appearance of your smartphone's system from this screen.

There are dozens of different launchers out there that will change your home screen beyond recognition. Got an Android smartphone but want to try Windows? No problem, there is. In addition, there are very many that are not at all similar to any of the systems. There are also options for your requirements, but not once when setting up, but at every moment when you use your phone. I also advise you to pay attention to from our author Dmitry Gorchakov.


Although most launchers also provide their own set of icons, it is not a fact that you will like it. But you have the opportunity to choose the icons that you like. We have already introduced you to the Lifehacker s pages for your smartphone.

Install new widgets. It's also a good way to refresh your home screen. Most likely you have a clock widget installed on your home screen. Change it to a more functional one. You will have access to more information from the home screen. For example, one widget displays the time, weather and the next alarm.

And the final touch of changing your home screen is, of course, installing a new screensaver. If you have Android 5 with Material Design, then the best choice would be. You also have the option to place. They will change depending on what the weather is outside the window.

And now a little about harmful, but beautiful. This is me about live wallpapers. Harmful to your smartphone's battery, but beautiful to your eyes. On Lifehacker you can how to make live wallpapers yourself.

Change the lock screen

The second step to changing the look of your smartphone's system is changing the lock screen. This is exactly the screen that you see when you turn on your smartphone. You can start by installing a new lockscreen screensaver.

There are also a large number of special applications for this screen. They will drastically change the look of your smartphone's lock screen. Just like changing the home screen, you can style the lockscreen with a different operating system. For example, put, which is made in the style of the iPhone. There are more that are able to display the weather and other information.

Installing a new keyboard

When using a smartphone, we almost constantly enter some text. For example, we write messages to friends, we type emails for work, we are looking for some information. And every time we use the keyboard.

Are you exclusively using the default keyboard? Or maybe you have been using a single keyboard for a long time? Try something new. Fortunately for Android, there are a huge number of them.

There are some that are very different from others, even in their approach to typing. There are real bison in this area - Swype and. Swype is, in my opinion, the best Android keyboard there is.

In addition to replacing the keyboard, home screen, and lock screen, you can try replacing your favorite apps with something new. For example, instead of the default music player, start using. In general, there are dozens, if not hundreds, of ways to change your smartphone. Which one to choose is up to you. We just set the direction. Who knows, maybe this article will save your budget from unnecessary expenses.

For some time, the new smartphone pleases its owner with the capabilities and functions that are available "out of the box". But sooner or later, each user thinks about how to improve his gadget on Android? In this article, we'll show you how to make your mobile device more comfortable, functional and productive.

But the interface changes should not be limited. You can replace many standard ones: select, download, install, set more informative, and even.

Do not forget regularly: a fresh update will not only fix OS bugs and improve smartphone performance, but also make changes to the interface and add new customization options.

Making your smartphone faster

Android is ahead of iOS in terms of customization, but loses in optimization. Therefore, freezes and brakes are a common problem for this operating system, especially among budget devices. There are several ways to speed up your smartphone.

There are a number of applications designed to improve the performance of your gadget -. With their help, you can optimize the operation of your smartphone, unload unused applications from memory, and clear the system of accumulated garbage.

The phone problem will be solved by disabling the synchronization of services. Do not forget about disabling unnecessary "decorations": widgets, "live" wallpapers, animated transitions between windows. Of course, every user wants to simultaneously get a visually attractive interface and good performance of the operating system, but if your smartphone does not belong to the "" category, then you have to make compromises.

Conclusion

A wide range of Android OS capabilities and applications allows each user to customize their smartphone according to their individual preferences. We hope that the articles on our site will help make the gadget even more convenient to use.

The essence

If not for technical progress, our phones would have remained like this:

Modern telephones are used not only for communication. Many useful programs can be installed on them. Unfortunately, due to the curvature of some developers, phones start to slow down. Because of the cunning ... other developers live and flourish a lot of programs supposedly speeding up the phone. Don't be fooled by promises!

Programs work on modern phones not the same as on desktops. Instead of running optimizers, delete unnecessary programs and the phone will be fine:

  • will work faster;
  • live longer without recharging;

And you will feel better - less distracting garbage in your information space.

In detail

What causes PC programs to slow down

Because of what programs on computer can slow down:

  • there is not enough speed of the processor, video card, hard disk;
  • overheat;
  • no free space in RAM.

In order:

  1. The first is obvious: the slower the processor counts, the slower the programs run.
  2. Overheating is the scourge of not only laptops, but any computers in general. When the processor overheats, the computation speed is forcibly reduced to reduce heat generation.
  3. Working memory is a victim of marketing. For some reason, everyone is sure that the speed of calculations depends on the size of the RAM. But memory is not a computing device; it stupidly stores data.

Members of the cult of fans to clear RAM are sure that the reason for the brakes is a lack free random access memory. Like, the program clogs up the whole place, that's why it slows down. Their mantra is: "The more free memory, the higher the speed"... However, logic is alien to such people. You and I know that:

  • Each cell of the RAM must be used. Free space from programs is taken up by the cache for instant access to files. The bottleneck is the hard drive, the brakes because of it, the cache partly saves the situation.
  • If a program takes up a lot of memory space, you need to close the rest that are not currently being used to make room first. In no case should you run any optimizers, they stupidly dump the software into a swap file.

Why does the program slow down when there is not enough RAM? Why doesn't it crash with an error, because there is no memory left? It's all about the swap file - the contents of the RAM begin to be unloaded to the hard disk, at this moment making it difficult to access the last all running programs. Everything will slow down, but nothing will close.In Windows 10, they decided to fix this moment by creating intermediate compressed memory - a kind of swap file in RAM and compressed to save space - but again this applies only to the problems of desktops and tablets with Windows.

How Android works

(I can't say anything about iPhone and iOS, because no.)

In the middle of the two thousandth, at the very beginning of the life of the Android operating system, mobile devices were:

  • with a scanty amount of RAM,
  • slow flash memory,
  • leisurely processors.

On a computer, if there is not enough memory, you can dump some of the data to the hard disk, the user may suffer brakes. This is not possible on phones and tablets - flash memory cells tend to die after several (tens) thousands of write cycles, the device will quickly break down.

And why such a crutch with a swap file, if you can do it differently. In Android, the concept of how programs work is different:

  1. Programs are made up of components that can be closed individually.
  2. No swap (but you can enable it). There is not enough memory - the "extra" programs will be unloaded into zRam - the area of \u200b\u200bcompressed data in the RAM itself - or will close correctly, without errors.
  3. Programs are launched not only by clicking on a shortcut, but also by an event. The installed program can be considered constantly running, because the user does not control this moment.

For example, the core of the program for reading SMS is running all the time. If the user wants to read the SMS, the component responsible for displaying the correspondence will be loaded. If there is very little RAM on the phone, then the program will close and then start only to receive a new SMS.

What happens when memory is cleaned up by alleged optimizers

Programs crash instead of unloading unnecessary components. It doesn't make sense, because when an event occurs that the program reacts to, it will start again.

Programs in the phone are launched not only at the behest of your finger - they react to thousands of different events and live their own life as long as they are installed.

A program closed by optimizers may start in a second or an hour, but it will definitely happen. It turns out the Sisyphean work:

The phone is slow > The user starts cleaning up memory > All programs are closed > The phone is responsive for a few minutes > Brakes due to background running of closed programs > Again "optimization" > … > …

Starting from scratch is slow and resource-intensive. Why kill programs and devices?

What you really need to do

Determine which programs are using the processor and uninstall.

The phone can slow down due to frequent access to flash memory, but this is difficult to track down.

What needs to be done to optimize:

1. Go to Settings - Battery:

And see the list. Above - potential culprits for the brakes of the phone.

What does the use of a battery have to do with it? Frequent load on the processor - the battery is consumed faster. Android keeps track of these.

If in the first four points there is some kind of non-system program that should not use the network and GPS, think about it - do you really need it?

Do not forget that the list will include programs that actively use the network and GPS, these also actively exploit the battery, but do not cause brakes.

2. Go to Settings - About the system and press seven time string Build number... Return to a higher level - a new item will appear For developers:

There is a new item - "For developers"

In it, click the switch in the upper right, which turns on the developer mode. Then work for half an hour with the phone as usual, return to the developer menu and click the item

The higher the program, the more often it is launched. In the screenshot above, Viber, Google Play Services and WhatsApp are ok. If you have software there that you run once a month, the culprit has been found and must be removed.

Do not forget to turn off developer mode later with the toggle in the menu.

3. Another way to find the cause of the brakes is in the same menu item Show CPU usage... When enabled, a list of processes will appear in which you will see internal name of the culprit only at the moment when the phone slows down:

In the first places will be an open program and other processes that load the processor

Having caught the moment of brakes and carefully looking at the line, you will understand what kind of program it is. In extreme cases, google it.

System processes are also displayed in the list, you cannot do anything with them.

When the display of the processor load is turned on, the battery is quickly consumed, do not forget to turn it off.

4. Have you deleted everything you can, but the phone slows down? Just reboot. In space probes, programs can work for years without failures, on the devices of ordinary earthlings, programs are often buggy. Turning off and on your phone (not the screen!) Will help you live up to the time when you can get a phone faster.

What Android Optimization Programs Do

Optimization is a business. Like fortune telling, pyramid schemes and more. People believe and pay with money, personal time that could be spent on useful things.

The authors of most programs on Google Play make money from advertising. Optimizer cleaners play on the user's fear by reporting contrived problems with their device. The user should open their creation as often as possible and see the ad, even better - point a finger at it.

All optimizers do at least two things, both of which are useless in their own way:

  1. Forcibly close all running programs.
  2. Cleans program caches.

The first, as I explained above, only heals symptoms... The second can be done manually by going through all the programs in Settings - Applications - Everything. But they need program caches to work quickly, they will create them again.

User confidence in these optimization techniques is so strong that they are willing to put up with anything, even the most insolent form of advertising. Take a look at the comments about one of the optimizers installed on more than million devices:

Fortunately, there are SEOs out there who do their job honestly. They just work differently:

Greenify (I wrote about it in the post) disables the reaction of programs to external events, because of which they lose functionality, but they do not load the processor in the background - the phone does not slow down and saves battery power.

Amplify Battery Extender acts more cunningly: it turns off the reaction of programs to events only for most of the time, so that the programs start, do their thing, but less often. Battery power is saved - the phone itself will wake up less often.

Various system tweaks stand apart. For example, regulating work with RAM. Everything here is purely individual for each version of Android, drivers, available hardware resources. This kind of optimization has the right to life, but it takes time to find the right values.

Why programs cause freezes

Because not all programmers are equally good. Due to a lack of experience or a banal oversight, programs may wake up too often, have an ill-conceived structure or use algorithms that require a lot of resources.

I believe that there is a separate cauldron in hell of those who have decided that showing ads in notifications is a good idea. Such ads are very annoying and make the program / game run over and over again.

Outcome

Look for the culprit of the brakes and remove. This advice applies to iPhones as well.

The first step is to pay attention to the characteristics of your phone. Is it a powerful processor? How much RAM? If your phone is weak, upgrading can cost you dearly - the phone will simply fail, which is not good. If everything is fine, and you still want to make a beast out of your phone, then go ahead with the song! : 3

Step 2

GO launcher EX
The program is quite well-known, and many of my friends put it on. How is GO launcher convenient? You can stop unnecessary processes without downloading extraneous programs (for example, widgets such as DX Battery Saver), select various menu scrolling transitions, the program has a lot of advantages, and you can customize the phone as you need. Another advantage, I believe, is that you can safely hide applications (without deleting them) from other users. The menu itself pleases the eye. See for yourself. Now turn on the menu from a regular android. Judge, but as for me, the menu from GO Launcher EX is better :)

Now about the cons: After using the program for some time, I noticed that my phone began to jam, and the system itself took a long time to load. My phone is LG P970, the phone is not weak, but due to jams I had to delete the program. It eats a lot of RAM.

For those who have a lot of RAM on the phone, and they do not want to mess with the firmware, but want to make the android better, then you can safely put GO launcher EX
Now let's talk about a similar program.

Step 3

Yandex.Shell
Like GO Launcher EX, it consumes a lot of memory, but this program is too messy.
At this point in more detail. Disadvantages:
When you unlock a smart, the main table appears randomly.
I would also like to be able to move the button applications in the middle.
Previously, Yandex.Shell could boast of its unrepeatability - it had its own 3D settings, a beautiful carousel, a sequence of panels. Now all this has been removed.
Those who follow Yandex.Shell managed to notice that with each updated version the program is getting better somewhere, and somewhere on the contrary, worse. Which alarms many.

Step 4

Faced with GO Launcher EX and Yandex.Shell, having tried it all on my own skin, I continued to look for something new. And I stopped at http://w3bsit3-dns.com/. There are many firmwares for your phone. After I found the firmware I needed for my phone, I downloaded it, installed it. It was android 4.0.4. (Of course, you can have a version older or younger, you can find everything on this site). And the new version of android made me very happy! 4.0 is better than GO Launcher EX and Yandex.Shell at times! My phone no longer dulls, there are a lot of convenient buns such as:
- Cool unlock screen
- Normal status bar
- Quick Memo function
- Create folders, advanced settings.
- The phone began to work faster

Disadvantages: Raw version, there are still many not improvements, but they are not visible in the general plan, except that you cannot fail to notice the fast discharge of the battery. But this problem will be solved in the future.

And lastly. A couple of programs to help make your android phone better!
1. ES Task Manager (Allows you to save battery power, free up RAM, manage applications and processes, and speed up your communicator!)
2. Android Assistant (18 features) - Top 18 features to help you manage your Android mobile easily and efficiently.
3. Shazam - Perhaps the best program for recognizing different tracks.
4. DX Battery Saver (It really saves battery power, I use it myself. With it you can create your own mode for the phone. That is, turn off everything that you do not use. Deletes all unnecessary processes.)

Step 5

And so, to summarize.
You should not install programs like GO launcher EX and Yandex Shell if you have weak phones (and it will slow down, and if you also put live wallpapers, it will be a hassle)). They eat a lot of RAM - that's their main disadvantage. So if you still have android 2.3.4., Then flash your phone to android version 4.0 and higher. But! If you are afraid of flashing the phone yourself, afraid of losing root rights to the phone, then you better do not. Try all of the above programs on yourself, look, maybe there is some kind of firmware for your phone (as in my example Zeus), and if you still rummage in the market, then you can find a couple more similar programs that you most fit. Use a widget like DX Battery Saver if you want your phone battery to last longer. There is also a program for overclocking the RAM on the phone - AnTuTu Benchmark. I myself do not use it, but I think for those who want to make their phone faster, this program will be necessary.

Try, experiment and discover your phone in a new way. Good luck! : 3

One of the strengths of Android (or weaknesses, depending on your point of view) is the ability to relatively easily change almost any component of the appearance of the system, applications, widgets, etc. The user can get as deep under the hood of the operating system as it is not possible with Apple after any jailbreak. The home screen can be radically redesigned to give you a unique, one-of-a-kind device.

The tips here for customizing smartphones and tablets do not require rooting Android. But if you decide to take this step, then the possibilities will be even wider.

Here's a quick guide to customizing your Android home screen.

The new launcher is the first step towards transforming the Android home screen, covered in many tutorials. The launcher is essentially an alternative way to perform various operations with the system. It starts when you press the Home button, replacing the default action.

It can use resized icons, a different screen and application folder template, show or hide interface elements (for example, a search bar or notifications).

After installing the new launcher from Google Play, you will be asked if you want to use it as default. You can return to the original settings with a few taps on the screen.

Apex Launcher and Nova Launcher are two of the most popular and fairly functional launchers. Both apps have limited free versions. If you want to take full advantage of these developments, you will have to fork out a little. To install them, you need Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich or a later version of the mobile operating system. Both of these apps are constantly being updated with amazing new features.

SSLauncher is another popular choice for Android home screen customization lovers. It doesn't use grid-based layouts like Apex or Nova. Another nice thing is that this solution is compatible with Android versions starting from 2.2, which means that it can be used on old devices.

If the capabilities of these launchers are not enough for you, then I recommend you also pay attention to ADW.Launcher, Go Launcher EX and Lightning Launcher. Which is right for you depends on the characteristics of the device and the style of work.

2. Arrange shortcuts and widgets

You can stop at installing the launcher by accepting its suggested icon size, home screen appearance, widgets and hidden / appeared elements. But you can go one step further. In accordance with your needs, you can build your own system of widgets and icons, as well as download interesting themes created by other users.

Ultimate Custom Widget (UCCW) is an excellent set of tools that allows you to combine images and text with hotspots, customizing their response to touch.

You can create your own icon for Gmail or make one of the screens one big button to launch Facebook. Mastering UCCW can take some time, but once you understand this set, you can create completely unique things. For example, you can place the display of date, time, current location, remaining battery power and much more anywhere on the screen.

On MyColorScreen and similar sites, you can find many themes in .uzip files. Open them in UCCW and modify them. These files can be transferred to Android smartphones and tablets through cloud storage (for example, Dropbox), as well as through the good old USB cable.

You can also try out tools for customizing the appearance of Android, such as Desktop VisualizeR, which allows you to create any shortcuts and icons, or WidgetLocker, which has a great arsenal of tools for changing the lock screen. With the help of "Simple Text" you can turn application icons into plain text,
and Missed It! great tool for customizing the notification system.

3. Putting It All Together

Use the launcher to change general settings and the look of your home screen, and use a widget tool like UCCW to perfect the interface for you.

In addition to this, keep in mind that many interesting themes and icons can be found on Google Play, as well as on some specialized sites, such as MyColorScreen and DeviantArt.

I recommend that you try out the Minimal UI icon set, which is compatible with most launchers, Power Toggles, which replaces the standard widget for turning on wireless, 3G, etc., and Beautiful Widgets Free, which contains a very interesting clock and weather widget.

Can an android phone be improved? This question is of interest to almost all owners of smartphones or tablets.

Usually they try to improve performance in games, camera, sound, internet, gps reception, graphics, microphone, speaker, video, battery, photo, wifi reception, location, color rendition, antenna, phone recorder recording, processor, charger, multitasking and so on Further.

It does not depend on the phone model: chinese, prestigio, samsung, nokia, fly, mts, lenovo, as well as on android 5.1, android 4.4 2, android 6.0, android 4.1 2 and all the rest.

Here, from the very beginning, it should be noted that the android is initially well optimized, and of course not everything can be improved, but there are still some developments.

NOTE: in this post I will be referring more to the latest android 6.0 and 7.0, so not everything may match your interface.

I applied three parameters to improve my samsung galaxy smartphone with android 7.0 (for android 6, these changes are available for sure, I have not tested on others).

First, I applied the "Simple Mode" screen and removed all the lock screens, which increased the performance and reduced the load on the battery.

This can be done in the settings (and android 6 - go to the "Simple mode" section, on android 7 in the "display" section).

There are 6 large most used icons left on the main screen, which can be replaced with another and large clock with weather and date.

Three times what I did was forbid all background processes to work (section developer options), which undoubtedly added speed to my smartphone and increased battery life.

The third thing I did was turn on the "Energy Saving" mode. Not maximum, when the battery lasts a very long time, but a bad interface, but average (you can turn it on right on the main screen).

How to improve camera quality in Android smartphone or tablet - photo and video

If you have a cheap phone, the camera quality is certainly not good.

Something can sometimes be improved through the engineering menu, but not much, but the quality of the front camera can be significantly improved if you just wipe the lens, which is always forgotten.

To improve the captured video and photo quality, be sure to set the maximum resolution in the settings.

The amount of MB will certainly increase, but the quality of photos from the front camera will be much better.

Also, to improve the quality of pictures and videos, I recommend trying to install the "HD Camera for Android" program.

There are many settings in it to improve the graphics - it's best to experiment with them yourself.

How to improve sound quality on Android

Many people wonder how to improve the volume of sound playback on an android phone - the volume during a conversation (this is also affected by the sensitivity of the interlocutor's microphone), the sound of the speaker, headphones, or recording from a voice recorder.

Fortunately, the solution is quite simple and perhaps the only one, but only with the help of root rights, although manufacturers often underestimate it on their own, then you can increase the sound through the engineering menu.

If your phone has a poor audio system, then this will lead to quite significant distortion, since the output signal power is too low to make the audio stream louder.

Let's get down to specifics and see what happens. To do this, install any file manager that allows you to go to the SDCard directory.

I use "Es File Explorer" (free on the play market). Then go to your system root and open the Mixer_paths.xml file.

After that, just change the value of the parameter in each of them. I set myself to 93 instead of the standard 84.

Save the file and reboot the system. The sound volume and audibility should now improve.

NOTE: you can also improve the sound on the video taken by the phone, but for this you need a computer and this program.

How to improve internet signal on android

The speed of 3g, 4g, mobile Internet or wifi reception practically depends on the provider, therefore, for example, in the country, in the village, it is almost impossible to improve the Internet - providers in these places are in no hurry to update the network and the Internet speed almost always wants the best.

You can try to improve the reception of the Internet signal by installing the "Signal Booster" application, but if the network is bad, then this idea is unlikely to work.

If you receive a network signal through the mobile Internet, then you can improve the connection (connection to the Internet) by reconfiguring to another antenna, which allows you to make the "Signal Booster" application.

How to improve signal reception on android in gps navigator

If you want to improve the work of the gps navigator on your android smartphone, then there is a way, or rather even several.

If you notice a GPS malfunction, you should diagnose the problem. One of the best solutions for this purpose is the free GPS Status & ToolBox application.

This tool helps to improve the search for satellites and allows you to view information about possible errors and problems.

"GPS Status & ToolBox" allows you to delete all data from your smartphone and reset GPS to factory settings.

So the gps signal, after reboot, should work much faster.

Of course, the application will not be able to improve the built-in antenna, but it is quite possible to improve the signal level and positioning.

How to improve battery performance on Android

Regardless of the android version, battery life is a misfortune for all owners of mobile devices, even the most recent ones.

Even flagship smartphones that have a battery saving mode don't last long on a single charge.

If you use the mobile Internet on your phone, browse social media, and want to receive all notifications, then you must take into account that the phone will work no longer than one day on one battery charge.

To improve the battery, you need to reduce its functionality. To do this, when not using, turn off the Internet, Bluetooth, GPS, NFC, Wi-Fi, data transmission.
