I don't understand something:
I search the web fro some answers and what I found is that Android effectively manages RAM on the phone, meaning that when it is almost full, the phone will kill some apps to free up space automatically without any human intervention. But what I experience is today I played glu mobile game which is DEATH DOME, which is graphically demanding. I thought with a 2Gb RAM, the Note 2's RAM would be sufficient for games. But after 15 minutes in the game, the app shuts down to the home page. So if android claims to handle RAM efficiently, clearly this is not the case. I then downloaded shortcut task manager Note 2 from google play and then I clear memory, and I have more than 1 Gb free RAM. I started the game and I played more than 1 hour without any shutdown of apps. So my question is whether is it a good practice to end apps from task manager, or just let the phone manages the RAM for us?
*
maybe is the game itself got problem?

I don’t trust Android system can effectively clear the RAM for you. If yes, there wont be having so many RAM booster apps, manager, task killer, apps killer, task manager etc etc.

btw, Note 2 itself has task killer, no need go play store install...

bro, read properly, he downloaded the SHORCUT for Task Killer not the app. In Note 2 we have to long press Menu button then click on Task Killer icon to get into the Task Killer app. The shortcut is cool but it annoys me with the pop up and I ended uninstall it.

Install SwitchPro widget. if you dont want annoy pop ups, one tap clean memory. smile.gif Besides that, shortcut to on flash light, nfc, lock screen, scan media, all in one. Very nice widgets.

Some 3rd party launcher like nova and tsf shell can make a direct shortcut to the task manager. No need for the shortcut app.  icon_rolleyes.gif

haha thats right no need download shortcut...

noobs question...


Note 2 out of box is Android version 4.1.1 but then updated to 4.1.2.

would like to confirm ... what is factory reset?
Is it just wipe off all data and files stored on the phone and reset to the earlier state of the phone?
Or just wipe off all data and remain on latest android version 4.1.2?
and what is the difference between hard reset (reset via home + volume ^ button) and soft reset (reset via setting)?

factory reset IMHO : phone is like new out of box, wipe all internal storage and default all applications (stock). installed apps will be deleted.

hard reset is really, recovery mode LOL
