General :: Kill App Doesn't Close It Completely
Aug 26, 2012
I'm having problem using "Kill App" from Tasker.
I'm trying to kill apps like Google Music and Navigation (while GPS connected and Navigating).
Tasker can kill it for a moment (~3 seconds) but the app relauches.
I'm using the workaround:
Google Music:
- Disconnect BT (which pauses the music)
- Goto Home
Nav: - Macro (it messes all up when Nav is not running, i.e. I've closed manually)

I cannot leave it running in the background as it kills my battery. is there another app that is a good IM program that is more gentle on the battery and allows the phone to sleep? I cannot understand why developers don't allow the phone to go into a sleep state, using IM to wake it up and reactivate the IM application, much like PDAApps Verichat used to do.

I have the startup auditor and Task Panel apps. I want to try and setup the phone to always have as much memory available as possible. Most of them are pretty obvious but there are a few I'm not sure of. Does anyone have a comprehensive list of services/processes/etc. that we can safely kill off and/or set for auto-kill/disable at startup? Edit: One I was curious about is Google Partner Setup. I have killed it off without any issues through Task Panel. But would having it on the auto-kill list be OK?

the problem is that this button doesn't exit of my app... it simply closes the current intent ant returns to the previous intent (window) of my app.... how i can do a real exit/close button? i tryed with this:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_HOME);
intent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);
but it doesn't works, because when i turn back into my app, the app comes in the last opened window, and not in the first window of the app, how i can do that? i need that when i re-open my app it starts on the first window of my app

I have a simple list view with some check boxes in an alert dialog. I need to option to add a select all/none but you can't bring up the menu in an alert dialog, and I want to do this function from a button. From what I've seen any kind of button (positive, neutral, and negative) all close the dialog regardless.
So, is this possible? If no, what alternatives do I have? My last mitigation is to simply create a new view and recreate everything. Is a new view the best solution?

Ok, I have had a Motorola Droid since they released the phone and my battery has been great. I could charge it overnight and take it off the charger around 6:30 am and when I put it back on the charger around 9 - 10 pm at night I would still have anywhere from 50% to higher battery life and this is after very heavy usage.
Beginning a few days ago I noticed that my Droid battery indicator is showing almost completely drained out by 6 pm and I really used my phone lightly yesterday and today. Today and yesterday both, the red LED was blinking and the battery indicator was showing almost completely dead by 6 pm. I pulled up the battery usage on the phone and it is showing the 'browser' as the biggest battery hog for some reason. Today it was showing 81% of the battery usage was from the browser. I hardly, if at all, used the browser today. I also checked the firmware version and it is showing 2.0.1, which I never updated it myself.
Are there any suggestions about why the browser would be draining the battery down so bad, when the browser has not even been used? Is there a way to close out the browser so it doesn't continue sucking the battery dry, besides using an app killer program?I did search the forum and did not see a specific question/answer to my question. I know I had read that some people were seeing battery issues after upgrading to 2.0.1, but I did not upgrade my phone, it must have done it.

What I'm trying to do is call-forward my number to Dell VOIP when connected to WiFI, but I want to kill the Dell Voice app when I'm not connected to wifi because it's a battery drainer. So far I have everything setup so that when I'm on WiFi, all calls get routed through WiFi into the Dell Voice app.. what I cannot figure out how to do is kill the app once I disconnect from WiFI. I tried searching but couldn't find an answer.

As we all know, Android doesn't like Task Managers. Android likes to handle the apps by himself. But sometimes he just can't know what apps I need and which not.
So I need a way to tell Android not to kill an app, for example a gesture app or a "App Lock" App. I haven't rooted my Device yet, because I've got a new Nexus 4 (there's still my Xperia P in my signature), but I can if it's necessary for that cause.
The App I want to give these rights to is "Glovebox".

I've been trying to find a decent terminal with many netstat options, but havn't had much luck. So any app that has netstat ability with the ability to select and kill established processes linked to certain connections.
If not, do you know of a terminal that includes all the netstat options?

So now I fully optimized my galaxy mini, and I have cyanogenmod 7 mebitek slim, I did everything to optimize it, installed V6, overclock 825 Mhz, killed every unnecessary task, even killed launcher by THIS way, have 230 MB free RAM of 279(true free about 205 MB) and now in RAM when I play a game there is just android system task and dialer task, and I was wondering, is there a way to kill dialer, because when I kill it with Task Killer ProMax Mini and select root kill, it kills dialer, but it auto-restart all the time...
So, is there a way to kill it without after killing auto-restart?

I made a tasker profile to scan face in every 15 seconds by using another plugin (smart stay). Some situations it gives "unable connect camera" error. When I run restart camera app I can fix this issue.
How do I fix "unable connect camera" error by using terminal command. Because I planned to run that command right after (after 5 seconds delay) tasker trigger face scan action.

One of the feature on cyanogenmod most useful to me was the ability to kill any app via the long press of the back button..
Now I'm using a (beta) rom of Ice Cream and missing this feature so much.
Is there any app or other way to add this? obviously the phone (HTC Desire) is rooted and s-off.

Recently I've ordered a Cube U9GT5 tablet and so far it's great, however I miss a small feature and really makes the life easier, and that is the button to kill all apps in Recent Apps window. I have this feature on my I9000 running GamerzROM (4.2.2) and I really miss it on my tablet.
The Cube is also running on 4.2.2 and is rooted. Is there any tweak or an app that can add this button?

I want to change my theme. However, I want to change ALL themes, so this includes everything about the phone. What I mean is:
- HomeScreen
- Settings
- Dialog Boxes / Buttons
- Messaging
- Contacts / Phone
- etc.
I have GoLauncher EX, GoSMS, GoContacts downloaded on my phone. But I've yet to find something that I can use as replacement for the Settings screen as well as how to change the Dialog boxes button colors, toggle switch colors, etc.
I'm running Xperia P on ICS.

I can't completely erase data. Yes I've wiped in cwm installed different ROMs cleared everything restored from RUU but using the app Diskdigger I can always find files & everything that I've already deleted. I have tried force running the TRIM action which was successful but I'm always able to recover deleted files.

One day I installed a beta firmware for the G2/vision. The beta gave my phone a weird glitch where any apps that I installed would instantly force close afted I restarted the phone, but it would work fine if it was uninstalled and reinstalled. I installed the new firmware and now newly installed apps work. The problem is that apps that were installed while the beta firmware was installed still do not work after I restart my phone, even after I unintall and reinstall the app. There must be something left from the app even after

And everything I mean every rom's contents, busybox, scripts, etc. I once use one GB rom and it can run NFS Most Wanted very smooth, but after playing with scripts/tweaks too much, it turn out that the game lag more than before. So, I want to completely wipe everything and start over. Does the "Full Wipe" (Wipe data/factory reset+Wipe Cache+Wipe Dalvik cache+Format system+data+cache) do the job? Or maybe there is something more?

My Galaxy S4 screen is just completely black. I can turn on my phone and even put in my pattern code on the screen, but it remains black. I have tried to reset it multiple times and I don't really know what to do. Any possible fix without having to get a repair.
