hello experts,
first of all sorry for creating new thread, but cant able to locate the right place to pu my query.
i recently got Micromax A56 android phone.
I purchased it just for its awesome looks at such a low price and dont know much technicalities.
i am facing bit of problems, please help me
1. when playing music the music stops suddenly after playing for about 2minutes.
2.now the games like angry birds do not start, earlier it was working fine.
though both of the above prob are solved for the time being when i clear the app data in settings.
3. i installed the go launcher in phone memory. go launcher is working fine but now when i browse net with android browser or dolphin it seems to hang a lot, kinetics scrolling not working fine. plus when i type messages sometimes i cant get the keyboard popped up.
my phone memory shows 52mb free
and rom shows 25mb free
please help me to overcome these issues.
do i really need to root my phone to get over these issues or i can do without it?
please do reply.
Probably ur ram usage is high. Nd first of all remove the go launcher and install adw ex it uses very less ram. Go launcher is a memory hog. Use ram manager app from play store it works well. Remove every optimization app and task killers installed. Use advanced task killer.
Use sd maid app to clear up garbage in the system.
Heavy memory games will hang a alot.
Use boat browser mini instead of dolphin.
U will surely notice diffrence.
BEST OF LUCK

If u want to increase the ram u have to be rooted.
Sent from my A56 using xda premium
Yes that's right
For my opinion
Just use stock launcher app it will help.
Other use opera mini
If using any live wallpaper use simple image
If using go locker disable it use stock lock
If using Facebook app don't use it just use stock browser because it occupy more than 30mb ram
we all should be polite enough to press thanks for anyone who helped US.
@anshubham
thanks for replyn
i read ur thread in development section where u mentioned that u have go launcher installed on ur device, isnt it creating problems for u?
why u asking me to not to use it.?
the ram manager app you mentioned requires root access.
that means the root is the only solution for my problem?
moreover many rooting options are discussed between you and @imetal,
please tell me if in case i want to root my devise finally, what sure shot method i shud use.
i wud also request you to please guide me as what shud i do after rooting my device in order to free up more n more ram space.
i mean you already rooted ur devise and u r in a better position to tell all those stuff afterall i dont want to make that blunder of deleting MLABS LAUNCHER like u did...lol.
so i wud request you to:
1. tell me one sure shot method for rooting.
2. files and apps which i can delete safely in order to free up ram.
3. if i make go launcher as system app, does it make any difference imean will it work smoothly then?
thanks for patience reading.......dont forget to reply.
@anshubham
nd one more thing i wud like to ask.
u increased your ram using swapper app.
is it working fine for you, i mean is there any hang like problem sometime.
does this really harms sd card?
just share your opinion and experience.
how much memory is shared on sd card.
and finally i want to ask one last question which might seem foolish but still i will ask:
which brand of sd card are u using?
i mean i have to get a new one for my a56 and m confused between samsung and sandisk?
just asking for ur opinion.
thanks again
Newbies Help...

FIRST OF ALL BUY SANDISK sdcard 8 or 16gb not less than class 6 buy class 10 if available.:victory:
I'm not using Go Launcher(using it previously)..as i'm rooted i freezed those system app that restarts themselves continuosly like maps, talk, streetview, mlabslauncher, fmradio, etc.
I'm Currently Using ADW Launcher Ex(converted it to system app via Link2SD app) which is not causing any problem at all. I have used almost every launcher and found this one the most useful and it also does not require more RAM usage in A56(it uses about 8mb ram). The other one I like is Launcher Pro.
When using swapper it doesn't hang a bit. I'm Using 512mb extra RAM(sdcard space) After increasing RAM i'm able to play temple run and other heavy ram games. Like Road Warrior, etc. NFS SHIFT works without increasing RAM but sometimes Fore Closes.
Swapping method sure harms sdcard but the effect will be shown after a long time..(dont worry...we'll buy a new one then.)
U can delete stock apps "AFTER ROOTING" like facebook, TOI, teenpatti, mibuddy, etc...don't delete anything else.
After rooting u'll have alot of options available to make ur fone speedy and according to your style and needs like good ram management using root apps, titanium backup, overclocking(set cpu),,,etc etc etc.
For Rooting your device...search the net about rooting information its pros and cons. Then root your device (first learning is nessesary.)
for rooting follow this guide...by imetal1

For increasing RAM follow this...

To set up adb follow this.
http://androidforums.com/micromax-a56/603700-tutorial-how-set-up-adb.html
This time i have almost 40 apps installed on my fone and still having 70mb internal storage free and about 40mb RAM free.
BEST OF LUCK. :good: :good:
@anshubham
thanks again!!!!!
now that makes a complete rooting guide atleast at basic level for me and all other noobies.
one thing u mentioned about freezing ie "as i'm rooted i freezed those system app that restarts themselves continuosly like maps, talk, streetview, mlabslauncher, fmradio, etc. ", please explain how (procedure) can we freeze such apps when we r rooted?
also tell one last thing:
1. whats the problem if i decide to buy 4gb sandisk card?
2. where from did u get ur card, i mean did you got online, ebay......
is there any trusted seller who supply genuine sandisk cards as lot of fakes of sandisk are available we cant even differentiate them by looks.
thanks for all your support.....
U cn freeze apps by using link2sd app from play store its free. Just install it
Click(hold) on the app (like maps)
Select freeze.
Now its freezed..the freezed app will nt b shown in menu.
It will not restart again unless u unfreeze it and will nt eat up ram.
I buy sdcards from flipkart.
If u'll buy 4gb card u'll get less storage 8gb must be the starting sdcard as it will be gud enough to hold the data of apps. Lastly it depends on ur usage.
And cards dont come duplicated they are genuine buy from flipkart. They are cheap too.

I'll suggest you to buy 8gb class 6 or 10 sandisk mem.card
Higher the class, higher the speeds.

what is rom dump? is it the copy of rom?
can i flash the copy of rom of a56 available online to my device.
where wud i get the unrooted copy of rom for mmx a56.?
how can we flash those rom to my device?
am asking this so as to restore my device to factory settings whenever required say to claim warranty.
what are the other methods to backup or bring the devise to factory status when needed.?
will the factory reset function of my device wud be able to do that if suppose i delete few apps like teen patti etc after rooting. will the factory reset button bring back those deleted apps.
Deleted apps will nt be restored after factory reset...for rooted rom check the all things thread.
To get the warranty back just unroot via superoneclick.

Hey, can we replace stock apps for SMS, Contacts and Dialer? I think they are eating up much RAM even while not being used
I have Handcent SMS and GoSMS. Can I just freeze the stock mms.apk using link2sd? Would it crash my phone?
I think its only the same logic as replacing the launcher. Please help man.

hey someone pls reply to my query
if @anshubham is not available, some other expert pls reply.
Sorry for the late reply..
dont freeze any system service(dialer, sms, storage,etc)
we dont have any unrooted rom yet. u can just flash the rooted rom and unrrot it to get the unrooted rom.
u can freeze maps, streetview, mlabslauncher, fmradio, gtalk, gmail, email.( i've frozen these). USE ADW LAUNCHER EX as it will use very less ram because when u open running services it will not be shown there, when u'll go to background services it will be there eating up 7-8 mb which is very low as compared to others.
don't replace sms app i dont know what will happen..but don't do that becuz its a service too. It will not eat up more memory. First root ur device and use ADW LAUNCHER EX then u'll see the diffrence. i have always upto 40 mb free everytime from the day m using ADW.
After rooting u can remove Mibudy, mistore, TOI, FAcebook ,etc.
HOPE THIS HELPS...!!!

Hey buddy, I have replaced practically everything on this phone :laugh:
Installed GoLauncher to replace Mlabs.launcher
Contapps to replace Dialer, Contacts and SMS (huge savings) But mind you Contapps has some bug which eats away a lot of battery.
I froze every system app which I have installed replacements for. I have 50-60MB of free RAM at idle times beat that! Just make sure you backup them using Titanium. (Even tried uninstalling few but it went horribly wrong for the phone.apk)
One tip though, never fiddle with the launcher I lost control of the phone quite a few times, thankfully I had Advanced Task Killer to run on bootup. I managed to switch tasks and launch Titanium backup from there phew! saved my life!
thankyou guyz!!!!!
thanks for ur replies
tell me if i need to update the superuser app after i rooted using unlockroot.
also tell which app is best for its purpose RAM OPTIMISER,or SMART RAMBOOSTER, or ADVANCE TASK KILLER.
also pls help me choose between DROIDWALL, LBE SECURITY AND ENETTRAFFIC.
rest is fine
thanks

yes you should update the superuser app.
RAM OPTIMIZER is gud...but i dont use it though i use ATK.
Use LBE privacy guard...but beware that it uses a good amount of ram.

You will need to root your phone if you want to remove system apps / inbuilt apps.

To get a better RAM install a custom ROM .
About apps ,, remove every app that you do not need .
For me I can't keep google+ with my phone , I freeze it . But many people need it .
So you choose the apps . But do not forget a backup before playing with system files .

Ok Tanks!
One advice:
Use "Bloat Freezer" from Play Store, freeze apps you don't use, keep using you phone for a few days and delete those apps only if you don´t get any errors/problems.

Hi guys,
Quick question... I got this phone three days ago... I rooted it mostly to delete some of the bloatware... The thing is, I tried to delete the apps on the system folders, but it won't allow it... It returns an error message saying it is not possible to delete the files...
Anyone knows why this is happening and if there's a workaround?
Thanks!!!

why uninstall system applications,it is not recommended either one developers that is risky.
try this application work good.Make sure the app you are going to uninstall is not a system app.
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zsj.android.systemappremover&hl=en
install and Open Root app delete on your android phone and,Tap on System apps and tap on Pro when prompted to choose from Junior or Pro mode.
Scroll through the list of system apps and tap on any of the apps which you want to be removed from your phone.
Next tap on Uninstall to remove the unwanted app and again tap on OK to confirm your selection.
In case the app cannot be remove properly, you will see the following error. Tap on OK and then tap on #1 to force uninstall the app.
Now the unwanted app / bloatware will be removed from your android phone.

What version are you running? How did you get root?
Hi guys...
First of all, the "What???" wasn't meant for this post, for some strange reason when I replied on another forum post it did here... I'm really sorry about that...
Anyway... The phone was bugging and the root wasn't working right, that's why I wasn't able to delete the apps... I wasn't trying to delete system apps, but things like Google+ which I don't use at all...
Anyway, I'm on a D2306 from Brazil... I flashed the 4.4.2 global to get rid of the carrier apps, but I probably did something wrong while flashing and rooting it, so it was't working... I reflashed it yesterday and did the root again and it worked flawlessly...
I deleted the integrated apps I don't use and the phone is perfect now...
Thanks for all the help...
That's first thing I also do after rooting. There is so much delivered with the phone, and not few of it completely useless to me.
I think the advice not deleting system apps, hmmm .... what is a system app? Sony Home? SystemUI ? Or Google+, Gmail, Maps, Sony Select, ... all in system and unremovable without root. I understand that we need to be protected from doing harm to the phone we bought. But still I think the phone should come with a kind of admin function or semi-root to remove what is not needed. As it is it has more the smell of forcing people to using certain things.
For other apps I have different needs than what is supplied. I am lucky I can change things. As examples, for email I can use a normal email program such as K9, for sms I can use an sms messenger that actually does give repeat notifications, such as Evolve, QuicPic to me is the superior Album at 1/10 of the size, for navigation and maps I use Mapfactor bcs it has real offline navigation, and so on and on.
how to force stop all running apps at once I know it's possible by setting but to stop one by one needs too many times so I want an application which will work this job and yeah I have rooted jellybean 4.3
