2. And airplane mode isn’t just for airplanes.

Airplane mode has a number of fantastic benefits that go far beyond the runway. For example, if you’re having trouble with your 3/4G signal when you clearly shouldn’t, just switch airplane mode on and then off, and your signal should be restored. Also, if you’ve been on-the-go all day and have 4% battery when you get back to the office, turn your phone on airplane mode and it will charge much faster. Finally, if you’ve had a long day and send a text message to the wrong person, quickly turn on airplane mode and when the message fails to deliver, you can delete it and then actually send it to the correct person.

3.INCREASE YOUR PHONE RAM. Root your Android phone.

You can set your phone to automatically unlock when you're at home, though, removing this irritation while retaining your privacy when you want it
