Feels slow after update

[nov654]

Am I the only one or does the phone feel slower and laggier when performing simple tasks such as opening app groups or checking open apps?

Haven't noticed anything of note other than Samsung Members was down for a few minutes.

Have you tried "wipe partition cache" as you've updated your device? Clears out temporary files that may be impacting your device performance.

1. Turn off the device.
2. Connect To Computer or plug in USB-C Headphones , Press and hold the Volume Up key and then press and hold the Power key
3. When the Android logo displays, release all three keys.
4. Wait until the Android system recovery menu options appear.
5. Press the Volume down key several times to highlight wipe cache partition.
6. Press Power key to select.
7. Press the Volume down key to highlight yes, them and press the Power key to select.
8. When the wipe cache partition is complete, Reboot system now is highlighted.
9. Press the Power key to restart the device.
You can also Repair apps via the Recovery Menu.

May i ask why you need a computer or usb headphones? what does it do?

[KP_76]

I agree. It does feel more heavier when using the One UI Launcher. I've gone back to using Nova, which makes it feel super fast but the animations are broken on Nova now. So it's a choice.

It enables you to access Recovery Menu.

Won't work without it although I found just plugging in usb c headphones was enough, didn't actually need the laptop 👍

Unfortunately I don't have USB C earphones. Does it work with a dongle?

[Piper123]

As far as I'm aware (but don't quote me as I haven't tried it), anything plugged into the device USB c port may be enough.

[UNKNOWNUSERNAME]

Why do you think it requires something plugged into the usb c port?

[Piper123]

Because it won't work otherwise.

I have given the instructions on how to do it above.
