    You deserve a collective hug from the entire community using the old Nexus 7. I have used many so-called solutions to the lag problem and yours is the only one that truly worked. THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH for this wonderful video and for bringing back my Nexus from the dead.

    thanks for this some good tips, what i found useful is disabling some of the google apps i never use for instance if you dont read books on your nexus just disable the google books app same with films etc this prevents them from running in the background, and starting up at boot. also get rid of old apps that you dont use cos they will run in memory as well. ive done this & my nexus runs alot smoother & cooler!

    Thanks. Very helpful.I have a 2012. Installed a replacement battery. My other devices register 30-65 Mbps. The N7 clocks in at 5Mbps. The other devices display a long list of internet networks but the N7 shows only two.With your suggestions, once an app is opened the transitions are faster, but it is opening an item that is annoyingly slow..Any suggestions?

    is it just this particular tablet (nexus 7 2012\13) that does this ,or do all smaller tabs do this? do I really need to purchase another small tablet (different brand)?? also I heard that 5.1 lolipop upgrade is suppose to fix this issue?? I hope this is true because I've been reluctant to download the next upgrade... For fear of having to clear out caches & shitt , and it still be slow or even slower

  • @imad7x

    don't mean to be rude but it's stupid that you make a vid to make the tab faster and more efficient and you have a live wallpaper on. That consumes thrice as much RAM as closing the applications (not force close)
