COMMON ANDROID PROBLEMS & SUGGESTIONS (1-5) 1/ How do I stop my Android phone using data when abroad? One option is a third party app called APNdroid, from the Android Market, which lets you turn off all data connections via a widget on the home screen. It makes changing these settings much quicker than using the standard Android settings screen and is more likely to act as a reminder for when you next travel abroad. 2/ My Android phone has frozen. A soft reset will usually do the trick, but there are different methods for different phones. Fast Reboot is an app that will do the job for you by simulating the soft reset process and closing running processes with one tap. 3/ Why can I not download every Android app from the Android Market? Some apps are designed for specific screen resolutions and thus are not available on all phones. The high-endAndroid phones tend to support more apps, but landscape screened phones sometimes have problems with particular games and apps. There are other reasons why some apps will not be available, such as compatibility only with specific manufacturer’s devices, but the vast majority of apps should be available for all phones so you need not worry too much. 4/ My smartphone Wi-Fi does not stay connected? Go to Wireless & Networks / Wi-Fi Settings and press the menu key. Choose ‘Advanced’ and change the sleep policy to ‘Never’. This seems to solve the problem for most people who have issues keeping a Wi-Fi connection alive. 5/ Why do I keep running out of memory? There are many reasons for this problem, but the cache can often get too full to allow the efficient running of apps. Apps like Cache Cleaner, from the Android Market, let you clean the cache for specific apps to free up memory. You will also need to either uninstall or move apps to an expansion card to free up more physical memory. (Source: littlegreenrobot.co.uk/tips/53-common-android-problems-solved/ )
