make your android phone snappy and smoother

One of the most common complaints about Android is “lagginess.” For whatever reason Google has never been able to get Android on the same buttery smooth level as iOS or even Windows Phone. In the last few versions they have made some serious improvements, but if you still feel like your phone is a little laggy there is a trick for speeding things up. Google has hidden some secret developer options inside the Settings. Inside the secret developer options is settings for animation and transition speed. Here’s how to speed things up.

  1. first you go to settings>developer option. if your phone not show developer option read my post   how to show developer options in android mobile settings.
  2. now open developer option.
     
  3. after open developer option you see two headings window animation scale and transition animation scale  so set these animation scale  .5x or animatin off.
  4. after set the animation scale animation off or .5x you feel your phone is more smoother and snappy.
  5. if you face any problem please comment below.
      

how to speed up android phone

1. check the internal memory space.

A low internal memory might be the reason behind any severe lag that your phone is experiencing.
  1. Move your media (pictures, mp3 files, videos, and so forth) to the external memory, usually an SD card.
  2. Some low-end and mid-range smartphones might already have low internal memories, in which case, moving your files to the SD card won't help that much.

 2. install the usefull apps by play store

  1. install the clean master by google play. this is a really good app.
  2. For older phones, an auto task killer: Kills chosen applications every 'n' seconds or minutes. This frees up some RAM memory, thus the phone will run faster.
  3.  An Apps to SD card application: Allows you to move some applications to the SD card (if you have one inserted). This also speeds up the phone.
  4.  Spare parts application: Gives you some more settings to configure in your phone, such as a faster window and transition animation.
  5.  A start up manager: Allows you to stop number of applications from starting up automatically when the phone boots up.

3. restart your phone

  1.   This is a temporary option, but it works! 


4. reset your android phone

  1.  Resetting erases everything and brings your phone back to its original, "as new" condition. This is a temporary option, because as you use your phone again, it will lag as it used to do.
  2.  Back up your contacts, memos, and any important information (such as saved passwords in browser) before doing this step.



5. root your phone

  Rooting gives you additional options to do with your phone. Although rooting is a risky solution, it is not as risky as it used to be. Unsuccessful rooting process might brick your phone (i.e., it will malfunction). In addition, a successful root will void your warranty. However, you can always unroot the phone (and you will restore your warranty, as the manufacturers cannot tell if you rooted your phone before or not). Here's a list of things that you can do after rooting your phone: 
  1.  Overclocking your phone's processor. This will ultimately speed up your phone, but will eat up more battery juice than before.
  2.  You can also install a custom ROM. The ROM is basically the version of android installed on your phone. A custom ROM is not an official one, but some of them are better. While this might solve many of your android smartphone problems, including lag and having a newer version of android, it is a very advanced, risky and not a recommended solution, because sometimes the custom ROM might not be stable, or might contain bugs and missing features that are found in the official ROM.
  3.  The ability to delete unwanted pre-installed applications. In case you wanted to delete some applications, notice two things here
             * Download a backup application, such as Titanium Backup to back up the application before deleting it (in case you wanted to restore it later).
              * Be careful not to delete any system application, like the launcher or the status bar.


 Rooting also gives you access to more advanced applications, like root call blockers, normal and notification ads blockers and root memory managers. The root memory manager is usually better than the auto task killer application.

download paid apps free(legally) by amazon app store and getjar

amazon app store


To entice users to use Amazon Appstore, Amazon gives away a paid app for free every day. Each app is given away for 24-hours and you must grab it during this time frame. Once you get an app from Free App of the Day, it is like you own it: You can install/reinstall it whenever you want, you can install it on all Android devices you have connected to your Amazon account (you can install Amazon Appstore on multiple different devices, all connected to the same Amazon account), and you get free updates (updates available from Amazon Appstore — not Android Marketplace). so follow these steps to use amazon app store.

  1. first downlod the  amazon app store apk. so click here to download the apk.
  2. now go to settings>security>unknown sources and check unknown sourcec .Once you check the checkbox for Unknown sources you will get a warning message similar to the following so you click ok.and install the apk file(use a file manager to install Amazon Appstore after you have downloaded it)
     
  3. after installing the apk open the app and sign up and you recieve one paid app per day free
  4. so injoy free app of the day.

Getjar Gold


GetJar is a third-party app store that has been providing mobile app downloads since 2004. As the name may imply, it primarily focused on Java apps in the past but has since expanded to smartphone platforms of BlackBerry, Symbian, Windows Mobile, and – drum roll please – Android. (And you thought Apply invented the app store.)
Recently, just today actually, GetJar launched their GetJar Gold service. GetJar Gold is a service that allows Android users to download paid/premium apps for free. Unlike Amazon Appstore – which runs 24-hour app giveaways – GetJar Gold apps don’t have a specific time limit and there are multiple apps available at a time. Since there are no specific time limits, there is no specific time frame for when new apps are added: GetJar simply states new apps are added to GetJar Gold “every week”.
While the name may imply otherwise, GetJar Gold is a free service that does not require any registration. That means no credit card required; and it appears GetJar Gold is available globally, not just in the USA. (Note: GetJar does not officially state if GetJar Gold is available in the USA only or internationally, also. I claiming global support based on some investigative work; I have not personally tried GetJar Gold outside the USA. If you get GetJar Gold working outside the USA, please share with us in the comment below!)
While it may be a positive that you don’t need to register to use GetJar Gold, there is a downside to it. With Amazon Appstore, apps from Free App of the Day are owned by you; it is just like you purchase them. Since GetJar Gold is brand new I cannot confirm this, but I am 99% sure the apps from GetJar Gold are not “owned” by you. When I say “not ‘owned’ by you” I don’t mean you will have to stop using them at a certain date nor do I mean these apps are trials. (They are full versions.) What I mean is: Yes you can get the apps for free right now from GetJar Gold but you may not be able to re-download them or re-install them from GetJar Gold in the future if the apps are removed; and it doesn’t appear like you will get free updates like you do via Amazon Appstore. However, for what it is worth, GetJar states the apps in GetJar Gold will “remain on the store”. This presumably means you can download them at any time in the future and future downloads may be of updated versions. Hey, nothing in life is perfect, right?
That said, getting apps from GetJar Gold is as easy as look and tap. First;y, you need to download GetJar from Android Market. Secondly, make sure you have sideloading enabled — just like shown above for Amazon Appstore. Thirdly, run GetJar. Fourthly, browse to the GetJar Gold section:

  1. Disable App Notifications


Bugged by annoying app notifications that just keep coming? If you don’t know already, these app notifications also drain your phone’s battery. If you want to turn them off, and you are on Jelly Bean 4.1 and above, here’s how:

    2.  Disable Mobile data by toggling the setting from ON to OFF.

3. Set Mobile Data Limit

 Want to keep track of how far your usage is from your monthly mobile data limit? If you have ICS and above, there is a feature which lets you keep track of how much of the quota you have left.


  1. Head over to Settings > Data Usage.
  2. Set your data limit by dragging the orange line to reflect your monthly quota.
  3. Set your data usage cycle based on when your "month" starts and ends, and you’re done.

You will be alerted once you hit the limit you have set. Note that the tracked data usage of your phone may vary slightly than your carrier’s tracking.

  1. Go to Settings > Add account.
  2. Select Google and setup your New or Existing Google account.
  3. Once added, choose what you want to sync with the account.

Repeat all the steps above if you want to add more accounts.

  1. Open Play Store and head over to Settings.
  2. Tap on Auto-update apps.
  3. Choose Do not auto-update apps.
If you want to enable the auto updates, follow the same path and choose Auto-update apps at any time or via Wi-Fi (available for certain Android devices only).

Disable automatic Apps Updates

To update your apps manually, just open Play Store, and on the main page swipe in from the left and tap on My apps. You can tap on apps with pending updates and update them manually, or if you like to update them all at once, just tap on Update All.

8. Organize Homescreen Shortcuts With Folders

Once you have a lot of apps installed, your homescreen might be filled with app shortcuts. Unlike the app drawer, the apps on your home screen are not arranged alphabetically. So, you might want to create some folders for your homescreen shortcuts.
  1. Assuming you have more than a handful of shortcuts already on your homescreen, long press on any of the shortcuts and drag it onto another shortcut.
  2. A circle should now appear around the apps, indicating that a folder has been created.
  3. By tapping on the newly created folder, a mini window will pop up with your apps in it.
  4. You can drag and drop additional apps into the folder if you like. You can also rename the folder by tapping on the text area at the bottom of the mini window.

9. Disable Animations

Here’s a tip on how to make your Android device run a bit smoother: disable its animations. You will need to have access to Developer Options which can be found under Settings or About device.
Note: For some phones, you may need to go to Build number and tap on it repeatedly until you see "You are now a developer!". Developer options are now enabled.
Under enabled Developer options, look for Window animation scale, Transition animation scale, and Animator duration scale. Then, turn them off (disable) them one at a time.
