Auto stop app?

Is there any app that can stop apps from auto running. In background I tried rom toolbox but it sucks when I disable apps in auto manager.
Any help?

I think this should be on Q&A, not sure.
Anyway, try Autostarts from Play Store.

You must search here:

Autostarts
Autostarts, it's a paid app in the play store. Amazing app! After a flash its my first app downloaded right after titanium backup

I also use Autostart, it is a great way to stop apps from auto-running in the background!

But wich Autostart ? On Google Playstore we have two apk: One from Michael Elsdörfer, and other from Cyberhorse.
Wich is right ?

i recommand using app called "fast reboot" its not auto but its a 1 click thing
also u can use the go launcher task manager
it has n auto stop option and also the one click thing that stops all running apps.
its great and im using it
no u dont need go launcher 2 run it

in my opinion u must not force close apps as it restarts and drain more battery.
android manages the background apps very efficiently

strange thing when disabling apps after new update.

So I Odined the new full stock ROM, cleared data/cache to start over fresh, bone stock. Now when I disable apps from the settings/applications menu, they used disappear from the apps list. Now in there place is a generic picture for all the disabled apps with the app name. I hit them and they just say app not found, or something like that.
Anyone else run in to this?

This is what Im talking about.

Press menu while in app drawer and then hide apps. That should remove them from the drawer.

Thanks, I realise I can do that, Im just wondering if its caused by the new update, or if its something with my phone itself.

If anyone has a few minutes to kill, and you've updated and stock, not rooted or anything with a lot of apps disabled, would you mind enabling them all, then rebooting the phone, and disabling them again? I know it's a PITA, so thank you very much.

I'm kinda new to Touchwiz, so I don't know if this would have any side effects, but you could try to clear data for the launcher then reboot.

Cant uninstall apps quickly :(

Am using cm 10.1 build 18, i cant get into 'Apps' section in settings panel, whenever i click on Apps the phones performnce is utter slow. Cant even select the uninstall button, but other than this issue all is well. Any recommends for this?

If you have many apps installed it may take a while to load them after you select apps in the menu. You can also use titanium backup to uninstall apps.

thanks for the suggestion. let me try it ...

Prompted to select launcher after each restart

Hello All,
I'm prompted to select a launcher after each restart. I've completely reset my phone and the same thing still happens. Is this happening to anyone else? I'm using TouchWiz, not a third party app, but it does happen with third party launchers too.

The best solution is to only have one launcher installed.
You can either uninstall the launches you don't use or
if you have titanium backup you can FREEZE the launchers
which are not being used.
That way the launcher of your choice will load automatically
each and every time without prompting you to choose.
Good luck!

Do you use multi window?

I rooted my note 3 last night and installed the mods to add other apps to multi window. That was my main drive to rooting. But I don't seem to use it that much. I find it easier just to use one app and then click the home button swipe up on nova which gives me my recent apps and then use the other apps. That works better for me and is really fast. I was just wondering do you guys use multi window? And if so is there a certain way you use it? With any specific apps?

I use it from time to time when I'm on the go and I have to open a spreadsheet as well as my email for example, where I have to take certain figures from a worksheet and use them in my email to someone... that's just an example... Another example is when I have jotted down several numbers that I have to do some work with, so I open my notes, say, on the top, and the calculator on the bottom... It WILL come in handy--trust me.

I thought I would use it more, but I've only used it 3 times total. I guess more app support would help, but even then I don't I would use it much.

i have used it a bunch of times
will do it more when i can add whatever app i want to it (stock with root)
i just hate it when it does it on its own

What mod did you use to use all apps?

I do, but I'm noticing that after sometime the little tab disappears so I would have to go into settings and turn it off and back on. What causes this?

I guess it will come handy later on. At least we have this features. It's good to see what other people are using it for.

These r the steps I took.
I rooted my note using cf auto root. (still don't have a recovery installed since twrp and cwm are both having problems.)
Installed the xposed framework (from the themes and apps section in first post) reboot.
Went to play store search wanam xposed. Installed. Open xposed installer enabled wanam module. Reboot.
Go into wanam app. Go to system section. There is a tab that let's u add apps to multi view.
Done.

Yeah adding with Wanam module works great. It also adds a hotboot function which is handy.
As for uses, I've used it loads of times with my reader app. I can pop open a browser to search a definition or get more info on something. I found that apps are limited in how they work with each other though. For example I can't drag a reference image from a browser into sketchbook. But that's an issue with sketchbook and not the multiwindow function.

Thanks, i used the multi window manager from the play store to use all apps. As for how much I actually use it, not much. I've actually been using pen window more since we can add any app to it. It's become quite useful.

I did all this and enabled the apps I want...but how does it work now?
They are not showing on the right slide out thing for multiwindow...does it not show up there, but we can do it by opening those apps?
Also the wanam app is a lifesaver...lots of things on there
-nvm went to edit and they are all showing now

I actually use it a lot more now on the note 3 than i did on the note 2. The app groups really makes it more useful to me. Specifically i have an IRC/Chrome combo, an IRC/Youtube combo, a Chrome/youtube combo, email/gmail combo, gmail/chrome combo, and quite a few more like that, you can see the theme... I also enabled auto multi window for supported apps, which i find really useful, so sometimes if i click on a youtube link in some apps, it will play the video on the bottom half, or if i click on a link in a text message, it splits and takes me to the webpage... Each evolution of samsungs software gets just a little bit more useful imo.

So I have to know, I can't seem to get some apps to show up....I try to select Netflix and it won't show up in the multi window menu bar....it's damn near the only app I want to use with other apps and I can't! Any suggestions? I'm trying the wanam method....running jovy23's wicked Rom on my n900w8....the multi window app crashes whenever I try to load it
Any idea?
