Help Samsung S2 unable to do anything

Hello Hello everyone,

In the last couple of months I started having problems with my not so old (7 months) samsung S2.
The camera opens once every 3-5 tries and to reopen it again, I have to force close it each time from the settings. I cannot take or see any video, even the ones I already installed, the ones on Instagram and the ones on Snapchat, the phone goes crazy and I have to force close the app. So I decided to use the factory reset that everyone tole me about, but after I reinstalled everything, the things got worse, in addition to all this shit that's still happening, I can't use Viber anymore, and I rarely get the opportunity to comment on something on Instagram or Facebook; the device usually freezes before I do that.

Help me I feel lost :S

Thank you!
 
Try factory resetting it, then installing only 5 apps at a time, and see which ones installed it starts to slow down. It may be a problem with that app's coding.
 
The S2 is about 5 years old, perhaps your OS needs updating. What version of Android are you running?

I have the following : Model number : GT-I9100G, Android version : 4.1.2 Baseband version: I9100GXXLSP

And yeah I know it's old but I lost my S4 one year ago, and my Iphone 3 before that, so I don't deserve a better one :)

I tried to factory resetting it, and the only apps I got now are Instagram Facebook Snapchat Whatsapp and Viber, do you think one of them may be causing the problem?
