HTC EVO 4G : Task Killers / Special Calls
Jul 25, 2010I understand the concept behind not needing to use them when it comes to ram usage; if a program isn't active its ram can be released so it can be used by other applications.however, how does the android OS deal with cpu use by applications not active? this is the only reason i would think apps should be killed; there's nothing preventing them from using up cpu cycles while in the background.do they need to make special api calls to use cycles if not active?

May 25, 2010How do you know which ones to kill and which to keep going? If I kill say a running app like smooth calendar will it restart automatically again when needed?

View 10 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Close Activity Hierarchy In Droid / Show New Not Present In Current Task?
Sep 26, 2010How do I close a whole hierarchy of activities and show a new activity not present in the current task?
Context
Consider a FTP browser that resumes the previous session on launch. Each folder is displayed in its own activity. When I click on a folder, a new activity is started for the folder. If I press the back button, the app returns to the previous activity, which corresponds to the the parent folder.
I can logoff from the menu at any time. Logging off should bring me to the login activity (not present the current task when the app has resumed the session), and close all the other activities. How can I do this?
From what I've read, if the activity were in the current task I could use FLAG_ACTIVITY_CLEAR_TOP in the intent, but this is not my case.
General :: How To Close All Apps / Is There A Task Manager
Mar 16, 2012I've been with my Droid 4 for about a week, but it has slowed down for some reason.I'm suspecting that it's due to all those open apps, which I don't know how to close.How do you close all apps? Is there task manager? I come from the Windows Mobile world, and, as archaic as the OS was, it was very easy to bring up the task manager, just like in the Desktop Windows OS, and close any or all apps to reclaim memory and speed.

Apr 6, 2014I'm looking for something that will close apps (and the commands that make them relaunch) in an automatic way (i.e every time the said app is beign activated).

HTC Desire :: Close Programs To Save Battery Life - Task Manager?
Jun 11, 2010Just got an HTC Desire through O2 in the UK as an upgrade to my old SE P1i. Happy with it so far, still going through it trying to turn off and disable loads of stuff though. Here's some initial questions:
1) I got the Force Close Button program from the marketplace. Should I be using that to close programs to save battery life?
Or should I just leave everything running in the background? Camera, web browser, email, calendar and whatever else I've ever used since I last cycled the power.
2) Is there a particular Task Manager program I should look at? I've got ES File Manager and notice they do a Task Manager as well but didn't know if there's any others that people recommend.
3) Is there a way to disable the SMS threaded/conversation view in the stock SMS program?
4) And to supress the deletion prompt in SMS?...........

Nov 7, 2009I've been using Task Panel X and Advanced Task manager to kill unneeded tasks and keep memory at a maximum.
Recently, every time I open Task Panel X and then revert back to Home screen I get the HTC logo and then a loading screen while the device sets itself. This happens even if I kill NO tasks.
So my solution was to uninstall Task Panel X and then use just Advanced Task Manager. All the sudden, same result.
Everytime I open either of these apps and then go back to home screen I get a BLACK SCREEN WITH HTC LOGO, THEN A BRIEF (10 SECONDS) LOADING SCREEN. THEN ALL IS NORMAL.
HTC Droid Eris :: Task Killer - Task Manager
Dec 11, 2009I know this was talked about before at different times but I still have 3 questions.
1. what is the difference between a task killer and a task manager?
2. should we be using one of these apps or not?
3. when you look at the awake time if it is like 70% or 80% and you aren't using the phone a bunch I take it that means something is running,how can you find what is running.and is the awake time that big of deal?
Sprint HTC Hero :: How To Use - Task Manager - Task Killer App
Oct 15, 2009Looking for a guide on how to use task killer. I had task killer on and deleted it. I think I was killing tasks that were needed to keep certain functions running that I use frequently. If someone would take the time to help me understand how to use one, I think I would be much more successful with it.
example - text messaging just stopped ( werrent receiving them ) . Once I took task killer off, everything started working again.
Android :: Transforming Some Special Characters
Jul 9, 2010I have a list with some Belgian cities with accentued ( is that the right english word?) characters: (Liège,Quiévrain,Franière, etc.) and I would like to transform these special characters to compare with a list containing the same names in upper case, but without these characters ( LIEGE, QUIEVRAIN, FRANIERE) What i first tried to do was to use the upper case: LIEGE.contentEqual(Liège.toUpperCase()) but that doesn't fit because the Upper case of Liège is LIÉGE and not LIEGE. I have some complicated ideas like replacing each characters, but that sound stupid and a long process.

Sep 11, 2009I have a ListView, and I want to do something special with the first item in the listview.
So, I setup an adapter, an item in separate xml a java wrapper for the item and I have a "render()" method.
Inside my render method, I realized that I can't do something like "findViewById(R.id.test)" because all the items in the listview have the same id. How can I get just the first item?
Android :: Handle Special Directories ?
Jul 28, 2010I see that as of API Level 8, you can request a handle to special directories with Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory. This takes a type such as DIRECTORY_MUSIC, DIRECTORY_PICTURES, etc.
I'm looking for an equivalent directory for other media types such as documents (Word docs, PDFs, etc.). My HTC Desire has a "/sdcard/My Documents/" folder which looks like exactly what I want, but it has no DIRECTORY_ specifier for use with the above method. Is this a standard Android directory which I can rely on?
If I can't use getExternalStoragePublicDirectory, I have to use getExternalStorageDirectory instead which just points me to the root of the SD card. I can explicitly check for the presence of "My Documents" under the root and use it if it's there.
This is what I have:

Android :: Favorite Task Killer - Manager - Advanced Task Killer Free
Aug 22, 2009Anyway, I just wanted for everyone to post their favorite Task Manager/Killer, and why, and if there are any flaws. I personally use Advanced Task Killer Free. It has a simple UI, and the when you select or unselect apps it remebers it so next time you launch the app you can only remove the apps that you usually do, and keep ones that always run. It doesn't slow down or break the system.

Feb 13, 2009I do not have a device. I am testing on the emulator. When I send a message(problematically and through the device) with special characters I am not able to view them properly. For Example: When I send a message from one emulator to another say "~Ha". I see only the character "~" in the other emulator.
But when I send the same message from the DDMS, I do not see the problem. Is this a problem with the emulator or am i missing somthing. sm.sendTextMessage("5556", null, "~Ha", null, null);
Android :: Application To Manage Special Events?
Nov 16, 2010I'm a college student, and there's daily specials at bars, salsa dance nights, special meetings, lectures, etc. And all these things happen around me.

Anyone know what I can use that isn't my default so I can retain my personal schedule and, if I want to do extra, can see this app's contents?

View 3 Replies View RelatedAndroid :: Do Intents Get Some Special Treatment By System?
Feb 19, 2010I've developed an appWidget by inheriting AppWidgetProvider and adding it to the manifest as a receiver with the appwidget-metatag. Works fine. Two questions though: 1. It seems that the only reason to add APPWIDGET_UPDATE to the intentfilter of the receiver is to let the widgetpicker recognize it as an appwidget? The intents (update/enable/disable) it received no matter if they are included in the intentfilter or not. How come? 2. When adding a permission to the receiver to disable spoofed intents, I actually expected the APPWIDGET_XXX intents not to be received since they are(?) sent from a sender without the permission. Not so, they arrived just as before. How is this possible? Do these intents get some special treatment by the system?
