Speed up a Slow Nexus 7

If you’ve picked up a Nexus 7 like myself and have found that it seems to lag then you might want to give this a shot.

It seems that Google Currents can slow things down a bit so you can disable its background syncing to see if that improves your tablet’s performance as follows:

  1. Open Google Currents,
  2. Tap the three dots in the top-right corner,
  3. Tap Settings,
  4. Untick Enable background sync,
  5. Restart your tablet.

At least initially this seems to have helped on my Nexus 7 but I’ll keep track of this and report how things are going in a week.
