The Android device uses cache memory to store instructions that are repeatedly required to run programs, improving overall system speed. The advantage of cache memory is that the CPU does not have to use the boards system bus for data transfer.

   By root on your smartphone, all to be easy and we can control. Because it is still based on Android 2.2 Froyo I prefer to use version 1.3.0 Z4ROOT.Please remember, before copying the apk file to your sd card , turn off the antivirus because z4root regarded as a worm / virus,Then install z4root, wait for while until you see menu options say “ Temporary Root and Permanent Root”. Just press Permanent Root, wait until it’s finished, and now you get your A1 fully rooted.

2. Install App2SD
   App2sd is very usefull to be applied on your A1, because only equipped with 256Mb ROM, if you install too many applications would not be enough.
3. Use SD Card Class 10
   By using the SD Card Class 10 will help the process of opening a file pictures / movies / music I recommend to use the brand like transcends/sandisks.
4. Install Advance Task Killer
   With this application to shut down running applications will be very easy, so we'll save the memory consumption.
5. LINE and Whatsapp
   If you like to send a message other than SMS, can use the LINE from naver and WhatsApp. With both of these applications, send messages would be more fun.
