I fly with the latest Firmware updates installed and the latest version of Go4 App for Android. My phone is a Samsung Note 5, running Android V 7.0 which isn't on the approved list. The only problems that I've had with my setup have been MINOR and corrected by usually replacing my usb cable. But I have a set routine that I go through every time I fly.
1. Close all running apps
2. Go to Settings, Device Maintainance
3. Let it scan the phone for a few seconds. It will return a percentage of how loaded your phone is. Click on Optimize. (There is no harm done) Closing the apps in step #1 will not close ALL the apps running.
4. Click on the Battery button on the bottom of this screen. This will give you a list of apps THAT ARE STILL running in the background. (Closing the apps in Step #1 DOES NOT CLOSE ALL THE APPS. Click on "Save Power" and shut them off.
This takes ALL the load off your android device. Nothing running in the background, nothing using computing power. If you don't have your phone in Airplane mode (which will reduce the load even further) you'll still get your email notifications, your text messages will still come through.
I do this every single time that I fly and I've never had a single instance of video lag or Pixelation. |
