Now the world is now becoming a technological world and everything is changing gradually as new things happen each and every day. Now there are so many things that you can do with your Android device but only few are familiar to us. Due to this, I found it a pleasure to share with you these few tricks and hacks that you can use your android device for.

You may already be familiar with some of them or they may be new to you. Regardless of your level of tech knowledge, you can use these tricks. So let’s head on to our main article of today:

• FIND YOUR LOST ANDROID PHONE

GOOGLE FIND MY DEVICE

Have you lost your Android phone before? Did you wonder if you can get it back? if yes, then you might have had the same experience that I went through when I first lost my phone at a party. At times, we misplace our phones and the bitter part of it is that we normally put our phone on silence, and if that occurs, then there’s no other way you can get it back except using an app and the most popular one is; Google Find My Device.

The good news is that, if you have added google account to your device;in other words if you have sign-in with your google account, then Find My Device is automatically turned on. So in case your phone get lost, all you have to do is go to this link android.com/find in any browser and log in with the same google account that you use to log-on on your phone. Now, you can see the location of your device and can further erase all the data remotely, lock it down with a message or make it ring loud (even if it’s in silent mode), provided that your lost device has access to the internet and location is on.

• TWEAK YOUR STATUS BAR USING SYSTEM UI TURNER

NOTIFICATION PANEL

Sometimes you become bored with the way your notification bar looks and you find it difficult to change thinking is only third party apps which can do that. Here I present to you the easiest way to do that without any app.

 First of all you have to enable the hidden settings menu called “System UI Tuner” which can be done by holding the settings gear present in the Notification toggle menu. On doing this process, the gear icon will start rotating followed by a toast message confirming that System UI tuner has been enabled.

Now, you will be able to see the System UI tuner menu in the settings app where you can specify what sort of icons you want to appear in the status bar like indication for orientation, networks, headphones (this isn’t enabled by default on some phones), etc. You can further tweak extra settings for Do Not Disturb mode, notifications and Always on Display (if supported).

However, this hidden setting may not be present on phones with custom UI like EMUI/MIUI and older android versions.

• LOWER THE DISPLAY RESOLUTION OF YOUR DEVICE

RESOLUTION CHANGER

Is your battery always eaten up by some apps or pixels? Does your device lags or overheat? Sometimes this may due to the fact that your device display resolution is high and causes the device to overheat especially when playing high intensive games.

Due to this, then there is the need to lower the display resolution of your device, and doing this we have two methods; one requires root permissions while other doesn’t. If you’re already rooted then simply install the Resolution Changer app from Play Store and tweak the resolution and pixel density.

But if you are hesitant towards rooting your device then there’s another method too which requires a computer (Windows, Linux, or Mac) and allows you to change the pixel density and resolution using ADB commands (without root).

Note: Some manufacturers like Samsung and Huawei provide an inbuilt option to do this without any third party software.

• INSTALL LINUX ON ANDROID PHONE WITHOUT ROOT

LINUX ON ANDROID

Would you be surprised if I tell you that you can open the Linux command prompt and interface on you’re a Android device? Installing a Linux on Android has always been a tedious task and often requires root but here, we do have a way to do that without root or any special knowledge and skills.

By using Debian Noroot app, you can install Linux distribution Debian on your Android phone to get a few utilitarian things done. It is basically an operating system based on Linux which allows the user to install LibreOffice, GIMP, and other open source software through APT (Advanced Package Tool) and make use of the same.

To do this, you just have to install the Debian Noroot app from the PlayStore, then just open it like any other application and allow it to download the full package for complete installation. Once loaded fully, you will be welcomed by a mouse-oriented desktop interface where you can download and install certain programs or games just like on any other version of Linux. Nonetheless, there are endless possibilities to be explored in case if you’re bored with your Android.

• MONITOR YOUR HEART RATE ON YOUR ANDROID DEVICE

HEART RATE MONITOR

Do you know that you can monitor/ check your pulse rate on your Android phone with ease? This might sound stupid to you but it actually works like a magic.

Now, there are many apps available which let you track your pulse rate. The ones which actually work require your finger to be placed on the LED flash after which the app uses the camera to track color changes under your skin to monitor the amount of blood passing through.

Also you have to consider the fact that this is software and sometimes it can fail in accuracy but having the best app like Instant Heart Rate app   will do the work efficiently with just your LED flash. You can download this from the play store with the link provided and try it for yourself.    

• REDUCE LAG AND DELAYS ON ANDROID

CPU TURNER

Does your Android phone Freezes or Face Lags due to the fact that you have old and low-end device? This problem occurs in the process of making a call or trying to open your Whatsapp app. Sometimes you thought is due to the fact that the device is old but this situation can be rectified with just a simple workaround.

Technically, Android draws from a predefined set of random data for performing most of the operations. When the device runs out of this entropy pool, it has to rebuild itself causing delays in opening apps.

This issue can be solved by using the Seeder app which takes the process that generates data and performs it every second. Then it feeds that info to a new random data pool and keeps refreshing it regularly and further uses that data to keep the system pool juiced up so that it never runs out. This result in faster app launches, lag-free animations, and reduced navigation lag.

Note that this app requires ROOT and isn’t compatible with the newer versions of Android. In such case, you can also try the L Speed app for speeding up your Android phone.

For people who are not willing to root their smartphones can enable developer options by tapping 7 times on the build number in About device section, after which you can reduce the animations speed by 0.5X or even disable them completely. This will significantly reduce animation lag and make your device faster.

NOTE: Developer Options must be used with caution as it can cause damage to your device.

That's all for today and i hope you enjoy it.
