So I called my sister phone and put my phone together with hers and put it on speaker and it both started making weird noises when I talked into it why is that? And could you potentially break your phone by doing that or is it fine because I don't want my phone to break thankyou .

So I've been thinking about restricting backround data on my Samsung grand prime but does it mess up anything I heard it saves battery on your phone is that true? Could you guys specify what it does and tell me if it saves battery thankyou and should I turn it on or leave it off

Guys I've been using this sunglasses lens cleaner to clean my phone screen / camera I'm wondering is it safe to use that and am I still able to use it ? It's a sunglasses lens cleaner and it comes with a spray and a cloth and i spray the spray on my phone and camera and wipe it could you guys tell me if its same to use ?

So my Samsung grand prime has been dying quite fast lately I've been using it at 3:04 pm on 97% and by 3:49-3:50pm it was on 91%-90% and I didn't even do much stuff I just went on the Internet and in the setting and on some built in phone apps from my carrier and the battery just goes down could you guys tell me if its going down normal or if its going down to fast thanks

I would try to do a factory data reset and don't install any apps to see if you still have the same problem

Re: Samsung grand prime device dying fast help !

I highly doubt that feature drains battery. It's simply a notification that gets triggered when an app update is ready.

Is it fine if I use this to delete unessesary files and cache because it's unable to disable or uninstall I won't clear ram with it I'll only clean up my storage space is it safe to use our should I just take the app away and not use it the app is called " Smart Manager "

Guys How Frequently Should I Be Clearing Cache On My Phone Should I Be Doing it Everyday / Every Week / Every Month / OR every Year how Frequently Should I be clearing it?

Re: How Frequently Should I Clear Cache

What phone model do you have?

Most of the newer phones do not require cache clearing. There are some rare instances where you might- such as if you have a very old phone with little memory

Don't install any 3rd party cache clearing apps either. If you do need to clear cache, it is already built in Android/your phone.

Re: How Frequently Should I Clear Cache

Using Android since v1.0 one gradually learns what works and what doesn't no matter how thick-headed one may be. Using Linux for 15 years helps, too. But someone posts a learning experience for me almost everyday. And thanks for that!

Google play services wasted 10% of my battery is that normal? My screen on time is 5hr and 22 min and my phone hasn't been charged for 15hr and all I notice is Google play services using 10% of my battery is that normal.

Guys is it safe to use smart manager just to clean uncessary data or is it not safe like I'm not gonna clean ram or anything I'm only gonna clean my storage should I do it or should I not use it?

Guys I still have no clue what miscellaneous Files are and I have been clearing them back to back should I keep clearing it or should I leave it here a picture of what I usually clear and crappie is it safe to delete this crap

You have a TMO Samsung?

I don't use Smart Manager. It is really clean master and that stuff is evil.

What phone do you have and why do you feel you need to clean anything? Are you experiencing some problems?

I wouldn't worry about it, I don't ever clear any files on my phone.

Are you experiencing some kind of issue?
