What to do if the phone starts to slow down and freeze? How to clear the internal memory of Android and unload the RAM? Such questions are very relevant, because now many have an Android phone or tablet. But there is a way out, and it is below.

Why is there not enough memory?

The memory on the phone and tablet, as well as on the computer, is divided into 2 types: for data storage and operational. Do not confuse them, as they are different types and they perform different tasks.

RAM is temporary memory that stores temporary data and commands. If the device is turned off, this information will be deleted. Also, the amount of simultaneously processed data, or in a simple way - speed, depends on the RAM. Each user must have noticed that the phone sometimes starts to think for a long time and freeze. This means that the RAM is overloaded, and it is not enough for normal operation. To avoid this, you need to clear the RAM. Android will work better from this.

The reasons for the lack of RAM are as follows:

• many heavy applications are open;
• a large number of unnecessary temporary files have accumulated;
• programs that run in the background.

Memory for data storage is designed to store information. Physically, it is presented as an internal memory of the phone or as an external one - on a flash card. The reason for the lack of such is banal: there is too much information on the media (not necessarily necessary).

How to clean the internal and phone?

The answer to this question is very simple: just delete unnecessary files, pictures, videos, music, etc. But before clearing the internal memory of Android, you need to find these files. A file manager, for example, or Total Commander will help us with this. We go, select files, delete. If there is no such program, then you must definitely download it, since it will definitely not be superfluous. The easiest way to download from the Play Market.

If the location of unnecessary data is unknown, and such a problem as clearing the internal memory of Android has not gone away, then you can use a specialized program, for example, CCleaner. We turn it on, click "Analyze" and wait for the results, after which we delete everything unnecessary.

It will also be right to move all unimportant applications from the phone's memory to the memory card. Go to settings\applications\downloaded, click on options and sort by size. Next, select the desired application, click "Move to SD card".

Clean up RAM

Such a problem as clearing the phone's memory is much more serious than clearing space on a flash drive, since the RAM is responsible for the speed of the system, and therefore for the normal operation of the device as a whole. Therefore, you need to clean it much more often. You can do this in several ways:

• First of all, you need a specialized program, at least the same CCleaner. The order is the same: we start, click "Analysis", after "Cleaning", but at the same time we do not mark the data from the memory card. This program removes the cache and temporary files that interfere with normal operation.
• Go to settings\applications\all, sort by size. Then select the application, click "Erase data" and "Clear cache". It’s not worth cleaning everything in a row, because after that not only temporary files are deleted, but also saved passwords, saves in games, etc.

• Close unnecessary running programs. We press the house, after which a list of previously launched and running programs appears. With a slight movement of your finger to the side, close those that are not needed.

Cleaning programs

There are a lot of programs that are designed to deal with issues such as clearing the memory of an Android tablet or smartphone, optimizing the device and speeding up its work. As elsewhere, there are favorites, here, too, there are the most effective utilities.

It will easily clear the cache, unnecessary garbage, clear the RAM and increase the speed of the device. In addition, it can be used to remove applications, clean up entries in contacts and SMS.

Close background programs

Quite a lot of RAM is consumed by programs running in the background. It is not difficult to solve this problem, since special utilities will again help to clear the phone's memory to save battery power.

One of the most popular battery saving tool. It is useful in that it closes background programs that load the RAM and thereby slow down the mobile device.

An application with the same function - save battery power by closing unnecessary background programs. It has a simple and pleasant widget, on which cleaning will be launched by clicking on the silver circle with arrows.

However, these utilities do not close all unnecessary background processes, and if they do, then temporarily. There are such completely unnecessary pre-installed services as Facebook, Gmail, navigators and others. But you can't delete or disable them. To do this, you need to get the rights of a super administrator, or But you should not take off and run to get them. Because by negligence or ignorance, you can demolish important files that are responsible for the normal operation of the operating system, after which only flashing will remain or Therefore, you need to be careful with this.
