Not cleared...... They will restart



Any way to fix it??
Try downloading ram expander(only for rooted devices). Don't create swap on your internal storage!!!

You can also try build.prop ram management tweaks(root)

You can look for a custom ROM with better ram management.
I'm very sorry for what u are facing bro. It is very frustrating cry
Re: Infinix Hot 5/5 Lite Discussion Thread by Olamyyde(m): 11:31am On Mar 24, 2018
The only issue I've had with this hot 5 is memory management.
If I delete a 2gb file from my mmc or internal storage, it will take like 3 hrs for the phone to update the storage that the file has been deleted(it can still be showing memory full in that period angry)

Another issue I have is how the heck did they partition the 16gb ROM?
The gave the internal storage about 8gb and the device storage 8gb too. But if my internal storage is full, I can't install apps? angry
Shouldn't they have partitioned a special internal memory for installing apps like all those other android devices?

PLEASE HOW DO I GET TO KNOW A CLONE INFINIX HOT 5 PHONE BEFORE PAYING FOR IT AT THE SHOP. I DONT WANT STORY AFTER BUYING. PLEASE HELP ME URGENTLY



Hhenryy:


Screen ON time is the amount of time your screen is ON. Whenever your display is active, your screen is ON.

for example if you want to make settings, watch movies, browse the Internet, make a music selection etc...in short any activity that involves using your screen.

Screen ON time is the greatest battery consumer in smartphones. If you are playing music or just sharing your wifi connection with your screen OFF, it may take about 30 mins before you lose 1%.

For the part of apps not responding, I don't usually get such notifications, so far, it's only the old operamini that crashes frequently and pops up "app not responding" i guess it's not compatible with Android 7.0 because I also experienced similar crashes on a Tecno device running 7.0. The opera is outdated & no longer on playstore. I sent it from an old android 4.4kit kat.

At times my mx player stops responding too when running the seek function. You have the option of closing the app or waiting. If you select wait., Your device maybe forced to reboot after some time.

If you are constantly getting the notification especially when starting an app, check your RAM usage and clear most background applications. And alway ensure not to install apps from unknown sources.

The best thing is to buy from reputable sellers to avoid stories that touch. If possible, goto infinix office if it's close. or other reputable sellers like SLOT, 3C-HUB, etc. you may also try other phone sellers in your area that are popular but I won't advice you to patronize those road side sellers. I'm not saying they sell fake or trying to spoil their market, but patronize them at your own risk.

I don't know the type you want to buy, 1GB lite version or the 2GB variant? But which ever variant, try to check out the specs online, you may watch a video review/unboxing video of it on YouTube take note of the specs and price. When you get to where you want to purchase it, confirm all the details you already have. Once they match, you can go ahead to pay for it.
But all this stress is not necessary if you are buying from reputable sellers.

Four Things Your Infinix Smartphone CAMERA can do, apart from Taking selfies

1)Translate foreign text
You can work this trick on any phone with the free Google Translate app. Once you download the program, open it and choose the languages you’ll require—the one to be translating from and the one to be translated to—from the drop-down menus at the top of the screen. Then tap the Instant translate button, which looks like a camera with a little plus sign inside. Now point your phone’s camera at foreign text, from road signs to paper documents, and the screen will display the translated words as if by magic.
2) Explore the night sky
Gazing up at the stars on a clear night is dreamy, but you can make that experience even better by identifying which dot of light is which. With the right app, your phone’s camera will act as a star guide. Point it at the heavens, and visual overlays will tell you whether the object you’ve spotted is the International Space Station or the star Polaris.
Our top app for star gazing is Star Walk 2 which offers a nice design and more features than similar apps. It relies on your location and input from the phone’s internal gyroscope to pinpoint constellations, passing satellites, and other objects. You can also use it to see how the night sky changes as you move forward or backward in time, read up on the cosmos, and view 3-D models of constellations.
3) Access websites
Photographing a QR code—those squares filled with a random-looking mosaic of black and white tiles—gives you a shortcut to open a relevant website. You’ll find QR codes on menus, package, posters, brochures, stationery, and other items. For example, scanning one of these boxes on a magazine advertisement can lead you to a website with more information about the item or open a special online discount.
4) Act as watchdog
Your phone can do double duty as a security camera that keeps an eye on your property, pets, or even kids. For this task, you’ll need two devices, one to film the video feed and another to tune into it. An old device that’s been gather dust would be perfect for the job.
One of the best apps for this purpose is called Manything. It lets you tap into the livestream from afar at any time, and it can send alerts when it detects motion in front of the camera. A subscription adds the abilities to save footage to the cloud or set up more than one camera.

I presume you are trying to login via your Gmail app.... If that is the case, clear your Gmail app cache and data then login afresh.

(hope you don't have too many messages in your inbox? Like 500 & above?)

If problem persist, You can login from one of your browsers. And like I said earlier, if the messages in your inbox is running to thousands, you can free up some space, and try the app again (i have one abandoned mail with thousands of inbox messages mostly from the sites I subscribed to)
