Looking for how to fix Nexus 7 lag? Is your Google Nexus 7 lagging after Kit Kat update? Is your Nexus 7 exhibiting lag after an update in general? Is your Nexus having slow battery charging problem? Then read on!
In this post you’ll see how to speed things up a bit with a short and simple trick to speed up your Nexus 7. The steps below can be a bit tricky/finicky to get right so I suggest you read through them a couple of times first before attempting them.
1. Power off your tablet.
2. Now press and hold Power + Volume Down until you see this screen:
3. Now use the Volume keys to select Recovery (press Volume Down twice), until your screen looks like below and then press Power to select.
4. You should now see the Google logo for 5-10 seconds before you see an otherwise blank screen with our little Android buddy looking worse for wear and the text “No command.”
5. Now you will press Power + Volume Up for about 3 seconds before releasing Volume Up (keeping Power pressed). That should land you at the screen below:
6. Again here, use the Volume buttons to move the cursor up or down. Press Volume Down 3 times to highlight “wipe cache partition” then press Power to select. (Be careful not to select “wipe data/factory reset”).
7. By now your cache should have been wiped clean, it took about 1~2 seconds on my Nexus. You will then have a confirmation message in the bottom left of the screen like the screen below:
8. Press the Power button with “reboot system now” selected (which should be selected by default) and your Nexus will boot up and hopefully be much more responsive and snappy!
Disclaimer: This is not guaranteed to make your device faster, nor do I take any liability whatsoever for any issues that arise from following the procedure which is here purely as a suggested solution to fix Nexus 7 lag.
