Its the closest thing he has to solving his "problem" or what he would easily be able to use.
taskiller or something else dont kills services and selfstarting background apps, you can try with startup auditor which has an option to prevent apps to start again but i want an app which can really disable this ****, hope somone knows a better solution

Well you can simply uninstall the app/system app then.
If its a system app you want removing use "SystemApp Remover".
I don't see what's the big deal ! this is not something new, it doesn't kill your battery any faster if you kill them, use advanced task killer, set auto kill level to safe, set auto kill frequency to When screen off, only leave important apps on the ap list unchecked, add the auto kill widget to your homescreen, and every time you want just hit that widget killing all apps and go on with your day!!
Try Autostarts: http://www.androidpit.de/de/android/market/apps/app/com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts/Autostarts
With this app you have not only control of the startup programms, you also can disable apps, that would starts if different events happens. gl

of course it can kill your battery faster,like an update service witch activates your data, a music player which is watching if ur headset is plugged or things like that and its not enough to kill them with taskiller cause they can restart from them selve!
try multitasking from royerd, its a taskmanger which start when u press homebutton twice,there u can kill apps and u have a tab where u can see active services and kill them trough a shortcut

1. The ones running in the background are normally services or any apps which are not closed.
2. You can see service/apps run status using any task manager tool from market.
3. The services are installed as part of the app installed on your machine.
4. They are more often than not harmless as far as battery is concerned but can
be problematic if you have limited RAM on your phone
5. The best bet is to un-install the apps themselves, if you want to get rid of the services.
6. The normal task managers don't kill services running in background as that is what they are meant to do,otherwise the apps they are linking will not work properly.
7. Some apps on market claim to kill services/apps automatically as and when they are started by system, but this counterproductive as a service once installed will always attempt to start at frequent intervals and then the task manager killing them resulting in higher battery drain anyway.
Also, this means the task manager will always be running in the background.
So in short, the best bet for now is to un-install the apps which have background services running if you dont use them much.
Hope this helps.

This may sound like a stupid question... but here it goes lol
Does task manager APPLICATION have to be running (blue icon in top left corner) for the auto terminate to work? or is there a separate PROCESS or something that allows it to kill tasks...
For completeness sake i don't exclude task manager ... am i defeating the whole purpose ?

NO you don't have the app to be running for auto terminate to work. I use it all the time and I set auto terminate for 30 min and it works like a charm.
Advanced task memory
Hey thanks a lot!!!
Another question, my memory is not displaying anymore, i have seen someone else talk about this but im not sure if its a general issue with the program...
Does anyone have their memory displayed ? im using 4.0.1

do you see a drain in your battery from the autokill?
Hi,
I'm using TasKiller to kill all tasks occasionally when the memory get low or the responsiveness of the phone getting slow, I have place the TasKiller widget on the home screen and when I click on that icon it will kill all tasks and free up memory, sometimes the radio will lost for a while, after about 15-20 seconds, the radio will come up again, however, this behavior may not happen everytime.
Is there any tasks on Galaxy S which is not recommend to kill ? I just ignore the browser for now and kill every other tasks.
Any clues to avoid this? Thanks.
You need to add things like the cell radio, touchwiz, stuff like that to a safelist.
I'm not aware of any task name which might related to cell signal, anyone know the name of the task?

After a few days of use and I have finally find out that which process cause the signal lost --- it's named."Call Setting". You can try to open Settings>Call Settings, then go back to the home screen, try to use Kill all function of TasKiller, you should see the signal lost for a while. It won't if you added that to the ignore list. However this only happen when I use TasKiller, I'm now trying Advanced Task Killer and I didn't found such "Call Setting" task in it.

ignore samsung default "Dialer" in list of your task killer. When you kill dialer u ll loose radio for few seconds and then again it ll come.
The proximity sensor doesn't work. Ive tested it in the "secret menu" and it does work but when its actually in a call it doesnt (Yes, I know its only supposed to turn of the touch which it doesnt) Its getting really annoying since the call volume is already low and I can't put the phone up against my face.

R2BA024
I think it might be a problem with the R2BA024 Phone.apk or Phonebook.apk because I recall that it used to work (Either when I had stock or R2BA022 cause thats the only versions ive had). Maybe someone (Who knows what theyre doing) could try to push the old Phone.apk and/or Phonebook.apk into their rooted phone?
Or maybe is there an app that can make it work?
Thanks
Are you using a task killer??? I've seen others have problems with task killers causing the screen to re-activate when on a call.. effectively overriding the proximity sensor.. If you are then try switching the task killer off (it's better without anyway - search for other threads on this!!)...

I am using a task killer. Do you know if its a specific app or process that cannot be closed or is it just the task killer itself? The reason I use task killer is because
1) Sometimes apps will crash or lag and I want to close it and
2) I want to autoend apps to save battery (IDK if it works)
Is it ok if I disable autokill or should I remove the task killer as well?
Thanks

You're better off removing it all together. Auto ending apps doesn't really work with saving battery life since they are (Obviously) restarting later on, making the battery you 'saved' from killing it null.
I'm sure you have an app with a built in task manager (Like Astro), so just use that when you want to close a lagging/crashed app.

Personally - I (along with a fair few more recent converts!) have found that my phone runs much better without any task killer - autokilling seems to make battery life worse for most people - but if you want to keep the option to manually kill stuff then try just switching autokill off first.. I don't use one at all though now.
So I tried disabling task killer and it still doesnt work. But I found out something weird. I found out that the sensor actually works in the dialpad after making a call. You know how after you punch in your number and press cal you can drag out a dialpad for extensions, etc. It actually kinda works there (not as good as in test mode but with a 5s delay which is still no good) It might have to do with my Phonebook.apk or Phone.apk that is custom skinned. Which one do you think it is? Cause the drag out dialpad with a sensor that kinda worked actually was gray whereas the call scree with a sensor that did not work was black. IDK if I even made sense... I will now look for other Phonebook.apk or Phone.apk replacements.
And the custom Phone.apk and Phonebook.apk are from the theme repo.
Heya is there any way to closed programs throw the side bar on android 3.2.1?
I cant closed it and it too many apps running on background and it make my tab too slow.
Please help me out
Thanks
When you are done with an app use the back button to close it, the ones that show in the bar are recent, it doesn't necessarily mean they are running.

I echo his sentiment; you usually close applications by pressing the back button several times or selecting "Quit" or similar from menu. Pressing home button or switching to another application via the recent-menu leaves the app still running. Ie. try to use the back button more often.
Also, if you wish to see actual list of running applications and be able to force quit them, then I could suggest Advanced Task Manager ( https://market.android.com/details?...1bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5hcnJvbi50YXNrTWFuYWdlciJd ) on Android Market; I have that one installed myself and it works just peachy.

this is exactly as how things should be done.. Only difference i use Advanced task killer Widget. But i set its settings to all off.. Especially Auto kill. and when ever i see there are things that decided on there own to run i just tap the widget on home screen and they are gone.You can also long tap and select what you wish to Kill. Its preference to use as to what one you use.. Just be sure it does not run in background. or it will become one of the things your trying to prevent .
Read this to understand why closing these is not unnecessary (other than for privacy reasons)
Task Killers... The Answer from Google & Developers
There are some ROMs that allow for this. However as the person above me pointed ot, its unnecessary. ICS has the built in ability to remove appps from the multitasking menu. I don't know if this suspends the app or something like that, or not.

Not neccesary with ICS
In ICS you just have to slide the aplications on the lists to the sides and they will dissapear.

anyone else noticed that even if you slide to close the app in ics if you go to running services you find the app is in fact still running? and to clarify i am talking apps that are not using outside services like updates/wifi

This is correct. Swiping away the app simply removes it from the list. I learned this when I Home buttoned out of Grand Theft Auto III, swiped to the right and it was still running in the background. Pretty much, it takes a task-killer to absolutely, positively stop an app. But, unless it's effecting your battery life, using wifi, or Bluetooth, there's not a huge need to kill apps. Android has some pretty smart algorithms to manage resources...making task killers unnecessary. You should only kill apps if you're sure they're effecting overall performance.

Going to the recents bar, and closing all from there should be enough. You don't need to kill apps.
You could also use an app called Greenify, that puts to hibernation any running app.
Task killers are useless, and they slow down the phone rather than speed it up. You shouldn't use one.
I BELIEVE HE MEAN HOW TO CLOSE all idle apps taking ram and cpu in the task manager at once without sliding one by one
Yess. You are right

fast reboot pro(theres a free version too) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.greatbytes.fastrebootpro&hl=en
Description
- Select processes that should be excluded from being restarted/closed!
- Schedule automatic fast reboots (e.g. every day at 4am)
- Option to automatically fast reboot when you unlock your device (from standby)
- Comes with a widget and a direct shortcut to instantly start a reboot
Simulates a reboot by closing/restarting all core and user processes (configurable) and thus frees up memory. Your phone should be much snappier after using Fast Reboot Pro.
Fast Reboot Pro now includes an option to automatically perform a "fast reboot" every time you unlock your device (i.e. when you turn it back on from sleep and "slide" to unlock). This way, your phone will _always_ be as fast and responsive as possible! In addition, you can now schedule a fast reboot so that your phone is fast rebooted automatically at a certain time each day (configured by you, e.g. 4am when you're least likely to be using your phone)
Want to perform a fast reboot when your battery drops below 30%, or when you leave work? Download the free Fast Reboot plugin to integrate the app with Locale / Tasker: http://goo.gl/FlgLA
