Now i have modded my phone i can see using the task manager for root how many programs automatically startup when i start the phone up.
Is this an issue? How can i change which apps startup when the phone starts up?
as far as i'm aware, you can't.
which does kinda suck, i must agree.
i can't imagine the apps will be much of an issue. most of them should be google apps anyway, so they should be fine left alone.

actually, a lot of apps on the market start at boot.

yeah, but as long as you don't have a stupid amount of apps installed, i can't see it causing much of a problem.
It could be very beneficial to control what starts at boot.
Hopefully we'll find a way quick.
Can't see it being too hard.
You should be able to append it to init.rc
Hi all, hope someone can help me.
I want Windows Live Messenger and Facebook IM to run continuously on my phone and be online permanently to receive messages.
But if i leave them running and go back to my phone later they appear to have closed down and i have to open them back up and sign in again, and more importantly may have missed an important message as i have been offline!
I have the 'X Closes The Application' option off so i can minimise them easy, and i know they do get minimised because i see them in the Task Manager, but almost everytime i go to look at my phone again they have closed themselves, and only very few times are they still running.
I am running 'udK Syrius Topaz R2' ROM
Anyone know why this is happening?
You have some memory hungry app which take their memory away.
And WinMo shuts them down when there is not enough memory left for them.
I heard that it should be possible to start them as a service but i dont know how that works. If you find the answer pls share it in this thread.
Thank you for your reply, i had a feeling this might be a reason.
I now wonder what programme it may be thats steeling all my memory away!
I will hunt around and see if i can find out how to run programmes as services, if i find out i will post the answer here.
In the mean time if anyone else knows how to do this please tell us?!
please check the following:
Open Advanced Config
go to HTC Task Manager
Set Auto Kill to Disabled if its not there already

Thanks for the tip. I have a problem with FingerKeyboard and ChangeScreen, they stop working after +24 hrs w/o soft reset... I'll try this and see if it helps.

Thank you! This did it! No more problems! =)
I was wondering if there is a way to keep all of these damn stock programs from auto starting and running in the background? I downloaded Advance task killer and I always seem tons of crap running I did not start.
Would the only fix be to flash a new ROM on it?
I dont mess too much with task killers, but I believe some can autokill apps that you specify when they start running. You can also remove apps completely via command line if you don't use them at all.
autostarts. it's .99 in the market.
Alright. But nothing free huh? haha. Even after I kill it, some of the programs will still start up in an hour or so.

are the programs that keep popping up necessary?
If not, remove via command line or be willing to taskkill it, if it bothers you.
also, autostarts has different environment variables (start up, connection changed, usb plugged in, etc.) to specify when to kill what apps (I'm not pimpin it, I'm just sayin its a good program)
Oh. Maybe I'll get it, I mean its only 99 cents I have to figure out how to buy apps. Thanks though.
autostarts I can not find

I looked on the net, but I can not find the program. Can you link it?
I now use "ProcessKiller alias HTCDlg_killer" on my HTC TP2, but I do not see any killing.
Thanx in advance.

Some applications are SUPPOSED to be running all the time. Others the phone starts up so that their response time is better.
Arbitrarily killing applications is a sure-fire way to crash the phone. If you can be bothered to provide a list of what you see, someone can advise you what to leave alone.

no prob
is there an app or a setting akin to windows' startup manager that anybody knows about and actually recommends?
would be nice to be able to decide which apps and widgets startup on boot, instead of having to go in and close things manually

I use Startup Auditor by vesperaNovus. It gives you the option to keep things from loading at Startup and/or force kill them always. No root access required.

Please see Google Android issue 14889
Hi,
Everytime I turn off this computer in 5pm, and open it in 8am it's changing the Language. please see attached picture.
please help.
Out of curiosity, is there some particular reason to restart the computer? Sleep uses basically no power and resumes far faster. If you leave the computer in sleep mode, does this happen? What about hibernate, if the machine supports it?
Please check with the Startup tab on Task Manager. If you have unwanted programs starting up automatically, uncheck them and restart.
Anyway, do you have to manually reset the language settings on control panel every morning?

this computer is for office, so if we go home, I need to shut down this computer,
and when I open it the next day its always changing the language.
and I always need to use the 'auto system backup/restore', and same the next day,
it's about 2weeks.

here's the starting programs (attached)
yes, I used the 'automatic system backup' and its 3/25/14 (attached)
Can you try disabling all the startup programs above and restart? I'm not sure it will help but if one startup program is not in English, maybe it's causing the system to change the language...
You can always revert back to your current startup settings by re-enabling the programs as on your screenshot.
Also, did you check your language settings on Control Panel?

this will not cause problems if I turn it all?
yes, and its by default. pictures attached
PS -
If I restart or shutdown my computer right now, It didn't change the language.
I think it's changing the next day.
No, it will just disable the auto-start of programs you unchecked. You can always enable it back anyway
Now I realize it may be a group policy because the language always changes on the morning. Is your company using it?

I'll try this. thanks
so... I disable the auto-start programs later, then I'll be back tomorrow to tell you what happen. thanks for helping
You're welcome
Btw, is one of your programs using a non-English language for its interface?
Also, is it the first time you get the problem? Did it happen suddenly or after installing something?

ahm no..and if yes, I don't know what program is that.
yes this is the first time, but I think it's happening about 2weeks changing language everyday, no nothing happen,
and before I start my work in the morning,
I need to System restoreback to 3/25/14
all apps/programs that I installed recently will be deleted in that date.
Well, I think you already know this solution : if you want the easy way, just reinstall Windows
It can be a pain if you have lots of programs to reinstall and a slow HDD but it always works!

By any chance, do you have something strange in your task scheduler?

The computer can run automated tasks at defined times, startup time or under triggers. Try to post a screenshot of what you have there (under Task Scheduler Library).

this?
Yeah you got it, but I don't see anything wrong.
I don't know what the first 2 tasks do, but they were not ran today so disabling them won't hurt more.
Then the last one runs everyday but not at 8 am, I wonder what it is. Can you select it and post another screenshot?
