The Pixel 10 will have faster startup performance thanks to this Android change
Google is making a change to Android’s early boot process that speeds up how quickly modules are loaded, making the Pixel 10 boot faster.
TL;DR
- Google is working on a change to Android’s early boot process that improves how quickly kernel modules are loaded.
- This change has resulted in a 30% reduction in loading time for the Pixel 10, according to a Google engineer.
- As a result of this change, the Pixel 10 and other Android devices should boot up slightly faster, though it’s unclear how much of a difference it’ll make.

Ok but when was the last time you turned your phone off? Even reboots are few and far between
Weekly reboot is recommended to knock off some memory recident nasties and trackers and clean up memory.
Any references for that? First I hear of it.
Not that I don't believe you, but I'd like to read up about it. I basically never reboot my phone, never had issues.
I remember seeing a lot of reporting referring to an NSA best practices guide recommending to reboot your phone weekly. They do not really go into much detail though. Either way, it definitely does not hurt to reboot.
Here is one of the articles that I found: https://www.forbes.com/sites/daveywinder/2024/06/01/nsa-warns-iphone--android-users-to-turn-it-off-and-on-again/
I would also like to know! This seems like advice from the early days of Android when the software was way more buggy, everything seems very stable nowadays and I rarely find myself needing to reboot because something is in a bad state.
I rebooted mine yesterday for a security update.
About every 3 days or it gets wonky.
Newly setup too, about 2 months ago, Android 13
