How is the experience of heavy users with Keyone? Does the device lags?
- You can experience lags at times, but that's no different from any other Android device, especially when you have a ton of services installed like me. Mine has gone quite laggy 2 or 3 times and a reboot entirely brought things back to normal in all cases. I have nearly 2 hundred apps running, including 3 separate WhatsApp accounts, 3 separate calling apps, and several with location services.FF22 likes this.09-05-17 08:59 AMLike 1
- Heck, I just turned off animations. You should search the forum and YouTube for PRIV vs KeyOne, and you will see other's experience with lag and performance. The PRIV has LOTS of lag and poor performance (I have 170+ apps installed), but as per many users coming from the Android PRIV to the KeyOne, it seems to be MUCH better. If you turn on Developer options and remove animations, I gather it should have great performance.09-05-17 10:29 AMLike 0

I would prefer an app or a toggle in the OS to do this in the background. Someone just mentioned CC in this post, any more users/feedback on CC? Is there any other well known app that is available for clearing cache?

The reality is, BlackBerry needs to simply add something to the OS or launcher which advises the user on when it is needed and is a simply a click away. But it is not something that needs to be done daily or even weekly. That's just Conite preference. It does however need to be done to avoid issues and lag. And it does not take a "few minutes" its literally takes less then 20 seconds.09-05-17 11:19 AMLike 0 - I thought that the frequency of cache cleaning would be a function of how much you use your device and that once a week for one person may be everyday for someone else... maybe I am wrong on this but I don't understand why everyone is against using a dedicated or multifunction utility for this. Do all apps like this have ulterior motives, isn't there a lean paid app that can do just this?
Posted via CB1009-05-17 11:25 AMLike 0 - There's no denial that the device has a lag. And at times it can get bad.
I guess over months I got used to it but it doesn't mean the refresh of apps isn't there.
For eg the other day I had a Live Chat session open waiting for my turn in the queue. I just minimised it and checked a message or two. When I returned to the browser it reloaded the page and I not only lost my number in the queue but also the form I filled before it.
I think the extra RAM will be helpful in my case however I don't expect miracles from it since the processor is a mediocre one.FF22 likes this.09-05-17 03:32 PMLike 1 -

When I'm logged in to work using AFW, the whole phone slows down. You type and letters appear slowly, the apps open slowly and at times freezes.
Another example is in the phone app. You use it a few times in the day, and you'll see how laggy it gets. At times it starts dialing when you don't want to.
A quick reboot some times helps. I have also tried clearing the cache. Also played around with dev options to make it appear fast.
Oh yeah, try creating another profile / user. Then see how the secondary profile behaves.
I had been using the phone since April and been on Android and since HTC Dream, so am pretty sure what lag is.09-05-17 03:51 PMLike 0 - It's not that Ccleaner is a bad app or the developer shady. The cache is there to lessen the load on the system. The OS and apps store everything that's being drawn and downloaded to use in apps there so it doesn't have to repeatedly redraw and re-download content that gets reused. If the cache gets too large or has corrupted data, then it's a good time to delete it so it can refresh the content. My own rule of thumb is as long as the cache stays under 4GB and there's no problems I leave it alone.09-05-17 03:53 PMLike 0
- No there is lag. Just install Android for Work and you'll see it. I was just giving example of issues with multitasking / productivity.

And sadly, there will be no Android for work, as our new and super dooper smart CFO has decided our company no longer needs phones or even real computers.FF22 likes this.09-05-17 04:03 PMLike 1 - Having to wait for the keyboard is lag, yes. Losing content in unfocused apps is not, developers need to add that code. Otherwise things like the clipboard wouldn't work.

Oreo is supposed to be faster and more efficient. So hopefully our yet to be updated CDMA K1's will get a real benefit as I imagine the GSM will too.09-05-17 07:35 PMLike 0 -

I am very with KEYone. It is a major step up from BlackBerry PRIV. I am not sure if it hardware or Android 7.1.1 or something else but I know that keyone works much better. I special edition will be even more battery smooth.09-07-17 08:07 PMLike 0
