How to speed up your Android ICS or Jelly Bean phone

Things that do not help in correcting the problem
 
  1. The most common advice that you will get when you ask how to make your android phone run faster ? is to do a factory reset. While this seems to fix the issue, please understand that its only a temporary solution, the moment you install the apps back the problem of sluggishness and lags will reappear. So factory reset is not the solution. 
  2. Second advice is to install a Task Killer . Again the problem is that its temporary for few minutes, the tasks again start and you have to keep killing them. So this option also did not work for me. Although i used it for many months without any results. Task Killer on the other hand, may be the problem in itself. Task killers aren't needed in Android. Android manages tasks by itself. Killing tasks may actually be slowing the system down. Killing a task before its done just causes it to respawn, sucking up CPU cycles.
  3. Installing so called "RAM Booster" or Memory Booster apps. There are tons of them. But they are also not much different from Task killers. People try to package same things under different names to make money. I dont know where the get 5 star ratings. but believe me its not a solution to sluggishness or slowness.

There are instances like Jellybean update for Samsung Galaxy Note made the phones lot slower. Why is that ?. Its because of Android RAM management and cleanup is not as superior. But to enjoy other goodies that Android offers you must solve the problem.

What may work. Try one of the below.


1. You may have downloaded lot of applications and it must be hogging your device memory. Goto Application manager and move all the applications to SD Card. You can transform you rom on a Bareboned Rom to make it as fast as possible, e.i. deleting all useless apps!! . 
 
2. Invest in a faster SD Card. Class 10 is preferred, this way you will see some improvement when loading apps or data from SD Card
 
*** Do simple things like replacing live wallpaper with normal wallpaper as live wallpapers consume more resources.
 
After you have done the above, the next thing for you is to ROOT your phone. Once you have rooted the phone you can get access to some amazing apps that will create real impact and will make your phone much faster.  Read this page ---  How to Root ICS/JB for all phones: link . 
 
If you have ROOTED your phone, you can use following methods
 
3. Clearing up your RAM is very important. Root your phone and install Greenify. Greenify help you identify and put the bad behaving apps into hibernation when you are not using them, to stop them from lagging your device and leeching the battery, in an unique way! They can do nothing without explicit launch by you or other apps, while still preserving full functionality when running in foreground, similar to iOS apps!
 
4. You can also use the Seeder app. Many Android tasks run slower than they should for one simple, yet not-so-obvious reason: they consume large amounts of random data from a limited source. Random data is used to generate session keys and unique identifiers, in SSL and wifi, while starting processes, and during inter-process communication.
This data (entropy) runs out frequently, and that causes processes reading from the blocking device (if any) to temporarily stop responding (lag). These processes cannot continue until the Linux kernel repopulates the entropy pool, which takes time. In addition, input events are pulled from the user interface (to refill the pool), which may also contribute to the problem.
Seeder is a service for root users. It assists the kernel in "topping off" the entropy pool by re-seeding it with data from the non-blocking (high performance) random device. Optionally, it can also help alleviate MMC I/O contention by extending the I/O queue, allowing the I/O scheduler to make better decisions, and combine more writes.
 
5. Use Lagfix (fstrim) LagFix is a user-friendly implementation of fstrim utility. It allows you to select which partitions to trim (you should leave defaults unless you know what you are doing) and run the process easily. Scheduled auto-trim is also available.
Please note that fstrim output depends on kernel and device. It works fine unless you see errors. You might see big amounts of bytes, zero amount or repeating amount. All are fine! Read fstrim manual to understand why all these outputs are valid
 
 
6. Manage Autostart Programs: For Rooted android phones, you can download apps like Autostarts to manage which apps have permission to automatically start with your device. This can speed up your boot process.
 
7. Use setcpu app to throttle down your cpu when the screen turns off
