"Task killers aren’t just useless – they can reduce performance. If a task killer removes an app from your RAM and you open that app again, the app will be slower to load as Android is forced to load it from your device’s storage. This will also use more battery power than if you just left the app in your RAM in the first place. Some apps will automatically restart after the task killer quits them, using more CPU and battery resources. "

As I understand it swiping apps away only tells the system that is acceptable to free those apps from memory early, but it doesn't necessarily " kill" that app immediately. The recent app list talks with the system whereas the task killers typically just force close the app.

Yup. Swiping the apps do not necessarily kill them.

I still use advanced task killer with 4.2.1, and my battery life is double that of the times I don't use it.....this is just another one of those conspiracy theories with no evidence to back up the claims If I put my phone down after using google maps, my battery will die within 2 hours, even if I just unplugged it after fully charging to 100%.....if I kill maps, my battery will last me another 8 hours of normal use.
....and remember....itr's not always about battery life with task killers. New apps are RAM hogs because new devices carry more RAM capacity. Having an old device means if I run google chrome, I can't run anything else because my phone runs like sh!t when chrome is running....so I have to kill it. As soon as I do, my phone starts responding again, and is finally usable!!!
....so before you just go spouting off about your unfounded claims in regards to task killers, maybe you should do some research and ask those of us who do use them if they actually help, instead of just assuming what you read is the only truth to the story.

Hi guys
I've had my unbranded nexus for 2 days now. Power is really bad. Battery usage says Google+ app is taking 40% of the power used. But since I'm not rooted, I can't uninstall right?

Settings -> Apps -> Find Google+ and hit Disable or Uninstall.
Google+ is just another app, so uninstall it.
However, I'd be interested in knowing what it's doing all the time to eat up your battery. Yeah, it background syncs for notifications... do you have a ton of activity on G+?

I still have mines installed but it's not syncing in the background as I disabled it.
Hasn't used a % of my battery of life. It's definitely most likely coming from syncing.
And now it's disabled. Didn't know that I could do that, me dhd couldn't without root and bloatware removal. My app says : cpu active 50 mins, constantly active 3h50 mins out of 4 hours..

Another thing I miss from my desire is the facebook contacts sync? Google removed it i know, but can I get it back? I've tried a couple of apps, but none nearly as good as HTC'S sync option..

Yeah it's a new feature in Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) you're now allowed to disable apps.
Facebook Integration was removed. But you can bring it back to life if you flash a custom ROM that has that feature and it pretty much brings back how it was before Google removed it.
I didn't want to ninja the aokp thread so I'm posting this here. So for a while i was running aokp version 26 with no real issues. I wasn't following the development for a while so when i checked back they were at version 32 which runs 4.0.4.
I also want to mention I'm running no new apps, basically the same setup as when i was on 26.
Facebook seemed to be a big culprit and when i closed that it helped a bit. The screen seems to be using more than it did too. I am mainly concerned with all the wake time. The phone is awake a lot more than the screen is on.

That battery doesn't look too too bad actually.

system wakelock ?
whats the name of that app sucker app you posted.
reset your kernel, wipe and then flash again. It might help
It's called badass battery manager pro. I downloaded it last night from the market because someone on another forum suggested it. It's pretty nice in that it shows battery use app by app.
I'm also using lean kernel. Flashed it a couple days ago. Was using trinity for a while then tried out lean. It actually runs a lot smoother with lean but no battery change.
today it actually isn't to bad. All i did was manually stop Facebook. So once again it seems fb was causing issues. That app is junk.
i am still curious why it is awake so much. GPS is off, wifi is off (always have 3 or 4g), sync is off. Only thing i leave on is nfc but i have been told that is only active when the screen is on. I use no weather type widgets either. I have no clue what would keep waking the phone.
Edit: and what do you mean by reset the kernel. Maybe I'm doing it wrong. I installed the rom, then a couple days later flashed the lean kernel over trinity. Is there another way to do it?

I only saw battery improvements with AOKP's 4.0.4 integration.
Quick update, i have a screenshot from a better part of the day. I'm getting a ton of awake time. are there any common culprits that i can maybe freeze with titanium?

Yeah, I'm going to stop using the Facebook app I think. It's such a drainer. I don't mind a game taking up battery on its own but something like that should not use as much as it does! Hopefully they fix it soon.
We need to reboot our Galaxy S4 at least weekly because... there are memory and resource leaks??

It doesn't hurt to reboot your phone once in a while. I would be annoyed at that message however.

Yeah a reboot will just clear things out that aren't behaving properly that might be causing minor wakelocks or something. A Linux OS won't degrade in performance just from being on like Windows will but that doesn't mean that indivual apps or settings won't start to misbehave after a while.
If you experience no issues or problems with performance there is no real need to reboot.
I'm sure T Mobile puts that message in there just to encourage rebooting as it will fix 75% of problems, thus reducing the number of people who call customer service and use up their resources with really simple problems.
I turn off/on (not just reboot) my phone about once a week. Keeping a device powered on 24/7 for months/years can't be good (I have no data to support that).

Actually one of the reasons alot of industrial servers run linux/unix operating environments is specifically because you CAN run them for months at a time without needing to reboot. The OS will not degrade like Windows does so it makes for an ideal server platform since those need to run 24/7.
The only real limitation is the hardware. As long as it is properly cooled (hence the reason the server room at your office has its own air conditioner) it should be able to run indefinitely.
Linux is pretty amazing stuff.

My Linux box at work has been running for over a year without the need for a reboot.
And here's my Nexus 7 on Android 4.1 with over 2450 hours of system uptime:
Who needs to reboot, right?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
I believe that's just T-Mobile making up excuses. If your device is properly set up with the right kernel (stock kernel sucks) then you never need to reboot. However, clearing your recent tasks (long pressing home) will greatly help.
Btw windows never needs to be rebooted I've been running my windows 7 laptop and never need to reboot. Only time it reboots is when I forget to cancel the auto update.
Windows rocks too ^-^

Recently it seems that some badly written apps are trying to use bluetooth for beacons and are killing my battery in the process. In the past I found that Gasbuddy was the culprit and could work around the problem by killing it. Now it's happening again, The apps aren't showing up in the battery display but bluetooth keeps popping up as the second largest user of battery. For example, right now my phone has been off the charger for 3 hours and bluetooth is listing 32 minutes of CPU time and 1 Hour 19 Minutes of wakelocks. It never used to even show up on the list.
What tool can I use on a non-rooted phone to identify the app that is hammering bluetooth and causing that kind of usage.
Thanks for the advice,
I don't claim to know best non root or even best rooted rooted solution but I the short time I glanced at Google Play, this one caught my attention: no permissions or ads.

Attached is highest app regarding battery concerns. The Windows drop down but only option given is to uninstall. If there's an auto starts app that doesn't require root, that may be an alternative to add more control to these apps of concern.
I usually just use the Recents/Active applications to see what's active but you're right, there's activity hiding from this monitor. Only some are neglecting permissions.
Gee, I thought someone had said no ads in their review? Adaway adware scan didn't reflect this as a concern. Any doubt why I love root?

While looking for an Adaway alternative for systemless root, I came upon an app which produced a link for permissions app and ad blocker; both have no root requirements.
https://m.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/3vxa3b/managing_app_permissions_and_systemwide_ad_on/
You may have to search for the ad blocker but the permissions app is on XDA
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59864393&postcount=1
I wouldn't recommend the auto installer unless temporarily enabling it for automated long process. I've used these rooted permissions apps but this one is very simple in approach although I had to ignore a lot of middle risk apps that I trust.
I installed both apps and scanned with no concerns. I'm liking the results so far.

Hi all
As you can see in the image, the Samsung Notes app is running wayyyy too much in the background, eating up my battery. This is even after I make sure the app is closed after using it!

I tried to set the app to go to sleep, but this was not possible as it is a Samsung dedicated app. I couldn't even optimise this app either. The only solution seems to be "force stop"ing this app, which I prefer not to do as I use the app once or twice a day to write notes.
Anyone have any thoughts on how to stop this app from running so much in the background?
Possibly notes is trying to continuously update to the Samsung Cloud?

Thanks for your response, but nope - I've disabled everything from being able to backup to Samsung cloud
Personally I don't understand why the applications stay active in memory after I stop using them, since I can't tell the difference even if my life depend on it if apps is cold started, or starts from memory, either way it starts almost instantly, so yes I would definitely force stop it myself, especially that I feel this "feature" of all apps staying in memory is more for advertising purposes than anything else, especially now. There is a switch to either put app to sleep or not allow background activity, one is under apps inside battery menu, another under battery usage menu. I'm trying to limit all apps from running in the background, except for map which needs to be constantly updated for traffic, but what a pain in the neck it is, there are over 400 apps on the damn phone.

Disable or uninstall this trashware.
Switch to an app that stores your notes in a standard format such as text files etc so you can always read them in the future.
Finding a good free office app is now almost impossible for Android. I use an old copy of Kingsoft WPS Office. Today's newer versions though are pure crap unless you pay, pay, pay.
Used Samsung Notes on my S4 but restoring them became a tedious nightmare when I migrated to the Note 10 platform because Samsang "upgraded" their app so it wasn't backwards compatible with their older version's note files.
Don't trust Samsung with any data you care about; they will make it obsolete by their time table not yours.
Thanks for nothing Samsung... feel the wuv for the rabid gerbils in the box.
