2. Mobile services in your Smart phone
Many times we have to switch on some services like Wi-Fi, GPS, Mobile Data and Bluetooth and forget to disconnect or turn off these services after using them.If you kept on these services then it can hamper the Smartphone's performance drastically and drain the battery rapidly.
My suggestion is that always turn of these services after using them. However, if you fail to keep track of these thing or find it hard to remember to turn off these services , apps are available on the Google Store that can take care of such a small but trivial issues.
Note: Turn off the services of your Android phone rapidly after use.
3. Browser Caches and Cookies of your Android Phone.
When you're surfing internet on your Smartphone, a lot of data stored in the phone's active memory. The cache's memory clogging up the active memory of device and slows down its ability to surf.
Your Smartphone also has a ability to storing cookies. You may not realize it, but cookies can hinder the ability to browse internet quickly. Clear the caches and cookies at regular intervals, depending on your usage.
Note: Clear out the browser cache and cookies on regular intervals of time to free up the memory space.
4. Software and Apps in your Smartphone
Smartphone users are notorious for installing lots and lots of apps, even if they do not use them at all or they all perform a same task. There must be some old apps on your phone that you haven't used from a long time and probably will not going to used it in the future either. There might be some apps that run constantly in the background, decreasing your phone's performance and speed and eating up your battery life.
Review your apps and do away with the ones you are not using at all and use once in a blue moon. There could be some heavy apps that consume a lot of space and are a burden on your phone's memory and battery. Look for an alternative for these apps, and pickup something lighter than that app.. There may be a number of options out there, you only have to look.
Note: Uninstall some unused apps or find lighter app and give your phone some space to breathe.
5. Reboot Your Smartphone
It's my advice to reboot your smartphone regularly and your phone is good as new. Rebooting closes all the apps and processes running in the background and helps in improving the performance of your Smartphone.
Rebooting your Smartphone is like a fresh morning to you, it not only replenishes your energy levels but also refreshes and rejuvenates your sense. Once you reboot your phone it is refreshed, free from error and automatically solve all significant issues.
Note: Reboot your daily or when you realize that it is slow, and run your phone like a brand new device.

Using airplane mode is also a good option to extend battery life, when you don't need your Smartphone, say in an office meeting or in college time. GPS requires more power. So, it's a good idea to turn of location services.
Remember is your phone's battery is low, the performance to goes for a toss, so it is always a good thing to keep your phone fully charged and avoid the unnecessary draining the battery.
Note: Turn down your phone's communication systems when not required.
7. Live Wallpapers on Home Screen
Live wallpapers are nice looks attractive with lot of fun, some uses them to impress their friend and some uses only for fun.
The bad is, Live Wallpapers are not good for your Smartphone, they decreases your phone's performance, they also drain lot off power rapidly due to which your battery backup goes down. They kill your battery by displaying bright images and demanding continuous resources from phone's processor and RAM, especially when your phone has becomes old and is already gives low performance. It only adds to your performance woes.
Note: Don't use live wallpapers, avoid them for faster and better performance and for good battery backup.
8. Clean Your Smartphone Periodically
Apart from these technical methods, make sure the screen and buttons are shiny. If you have mobile cover or case, it's good practice to take it off and give it a nice cleaning. My advice is always use flip cover because it protects your smartphone's screen as well as keep it safe.
There is no need of heave solvents, clean water should suffice. Besides, chemical and solvent might do more harm than benefit.
