Experiencing slow android experience, response time. Why?

[nikhil1]

Hello guys, I have been using Xperia Neo with Android 2.3.4, build number 4.0.2.A.0.62. I have been facing slow android response and want to get rid of it. What can be the reason?

Slow in response for e.g. when I cut the call, it takes time to come back to normal.

When I run 2 apps, and press home key, it shows icons as boxes, and then loads thumbnails slowly one by one.

Also in some operations, it responses very slowly, what can be the reason?

I just want it to run smoothly like an iPhone.

My internal storage is 334MB used and 46MB free

RAM is 186MB used and 93MB free.

I have installed more than 20 apps, and have Avast anti virus. Apps which were movable to SD card, have been moved.

So now tell me. Is it Android's drawback or processor inside Neo?

Thank you so much!

thumbnails load one by one like this right..

this is a common issue in all xperias , bad memory managaement..

you cn do nothing , i have xperia arc and same slow response..

only thing you can do is update your phone , it will remove all the things but your phone will work smoothly but as soon as you download apps or do anything , it will start to slow again...

the memory management sucks...

you cannot do anything..

your ram total is very low...

you should switch off the phone once in 2-3 days , you can restart as soon as it switched off , but its better to waiy 5 minutes...

it clears all the cache and RAM consumption...

also download aaps2sd from android market , it will clear cache ( unwanted ) files which willl free up internal memory..

my free internal memory is 200mb but still it lags....

I do not think the great Avast on which millions rely will slow down my phone.

[slimshaddy]

i'm saying its not the antovirus..

i also have avast but the video above is months old...

well surely it will help a little atleast ?

[slimshaddy]

i know but i replied to you

Correct. Same happens which video shows. Btw I restart my phone once in a day or twicely if I find it too slow.

I know abt the app apps2sd, couldn't get the time to configure it. I ll do it soon. But Low Internal Memory does slow down response of phone? I can not get this logic.
