[Q] No multitasking on my rooted Desire...

Hi! I'm looked throught all posts, but nothing found about this, no one answer. Just some questions from some users, but no answers
My problem is- I don't have multitasking on alpharev s-off rooted New Sence ReflexTSence HD. now I have v 1.7, before I had 1.5, 1.6.
I tryed to use taskkiller app, all is ok while it is running... I have used different settings, some of them was ok. !!!BUT!!! After some time on standby taskkiller kills itself or phone kills it, I realy don't know. So if I delete taskkiller app, multitasking doesn't exists anyway. Web browser closes after I hit home button and use any other app like sms @mail or player (power amp) or phone book...
I CAN'T SEND SMS OR MAKE PHONE CALL WITHOUT LOOSING WEB SESSION (((confused: (SORRY 4 MY POOR LANGUAGE)

First of all, uninstall the taskkiller app, it will do more harm then good. It is not needed anymore since android 2.2.
If you phone runs out of memory it will kill your websession. Don't know a solution for this, you could try an other rom, but that's your own choice.

but some times it works ANY IDEA???

I tried this... but why author all time puts it into rom??

if you dont want to use rom
you can use mini info and see how much ram you have and the cpu usage.
Also try a different webbrowser?

I like built in browser much more

[S-ON] remove/disable crap from htc

Seen on the main XDA page, edited it for Wildfire S: Cleantool
This tool disables HTC bloatware. It keeps taking space on internal memory (APK is still there) but the advantage is that there's more free ram, less background processes and a cleaner app drawer. This way, you should multitask longer and maybe a bit better battery life.
Also device will start up a bit faster.
It disables:
HTC facebook
HTC peep
HTC friend stream
HTC search app
HTC stocks
HTC greader
update version 2
Cleaned it furher up! If you use another launcher then stock, you can use option disable Sense.
download
Instructions:
- unzip to desktop
- be sure HTC drivers are installed, here they are.
- enable usb debugging: go to settings, applications, development and select usb debugging.
- connect phone to pc, select charging mode.
- run the cleantool.2.1.1.bat file.
- select first option, then second option.
- select then reboot and disconnect phone.
For going back to stock: go to settings, storage and choose reset data option.

Guys, I am sorry but - do you have any idea how to use your phone ?!? 150MB free ?!? WTF dude
At the moment I have 258MB free with S-On Wildfire S, installed bunch of software and left with 35MB free phone memory, all home screens are full of widgets ...
The less I have ever saw is around 190MB free...
Could you please explain to me and the comunity how to NOT use our android phones please ?
P.S. - BTW I am using an antivirus software too which is permanently activated and checking, and now have 259MB free and 131MB used even checked through settings which consumes another 11MB RAM...
P.S. 2 - thats with DATA on, accounts - gmail(calendar, mail, contacts), live mail, contacts, htc sense, weather, twitter, fliker, facebook, google+ = all is set to sync, what else ?

Thanks for sharing this, Henry.
I don't really know if this tool will bring any advantage to me.
Actually I don't have any of those apps (bloatware) running in memory so I guess that it's just good news for some roms, not all.
On the 2.3.5 RUU those apps aren't loaded into RAM unless you use the widgets or open the apps at your will.
This should be nice for earlier/other ROMS that load all that crap on phone startup.
When my phone was branded to Vodafone I had stocks, peep, facebook for sense and other crap occupying memory.
Now without running the Clean Tool I have 267MB free memory for the system and 80MB free for apps.
Considering that I have installed a lot of stuff including: App Monster Pro, GPS software, Poweramp, musiXmatch, ES File Explorer, Google Goggles, Traffic Counter, Wikidroid, YouTube latest version, Battery Indicator Pro, Google Street View, Facebook, AK Notepad, Fast Discharge, History Eraser, Voice Search, Google Translate, Klondike, Gmail latest version, JuiceDefender Ultimate and other small apps I think I cant complain.

Almost 60 downloads keep on going!
Great to see it works!

Yes, I know how to use phone, thanks for asking. :banghead:
I have pretty the same app running, but again, only 130-160 mb available. And that's after using advanced task killer.

No.12, I strongly recommend you don't use any task killer on your phone. Since Froyo (at least) the O.S. keeps reopening apps all the time.
This is crap I know but that's the way to make some apps load faster.
The task killer will only kill your battery because the phone will spend lots of time closing and opening apps again and again.
Memory access drains battery at a very quick pace.
I know this from my own experience. When I stopped using task killers the battery started lasting much longer. Already happened on my defunct HTC Desire...

But won't I get to the point where memory usage will increase so much and phone will become slow?

Eventually that will happen if you don't restart your phone once in a while...
I had two HTC phones that had less memory than the WFS. A Tattoo and a Wildfire. On those memory ran out and made the phone slow.
That never happened to me on the WFS... but I have a habit of restarting the phone every week and clear app cache with History Eraser frequently. This helps for sure.

Superuser is installed because you are temp rooted. You can always uninstall.

[Q] Can anyone tell me is this OK or my RAM is vanishing!!!?

I got HTC One V for me and now after 3 days, just 45MB of RAM is FREE. No apps are running / opened.
Also when I touch the 'home' button on the bottom of the screen, it says 'loading' and after about 10 seconds of waiting, the home screen appears. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING TO ME?

That's quite unusual. When idling with no apps open, my phone has anything from 50 - 120 mb of RAM free. Could you provide more details that would help us identify the problem (i.e anything you've downloaded/modified recently, screenshots of your task manager page, running any custom launchers, any custom ROMs, rooted/unrooted etc.)

You have also apps that are running on Cache slot. See first screen? Go to that again, press menu on your phone to bring up the menu screen and select Show cached processes. Also, it is a good advice to restart your phone once in awhile. Just to make sure that the cache is rebuilt and the ram is defragmented.
Cheers

[Q] Way to prevent Facebook from starting?

Hello everyone,
By reading your helpful posts, I have rooted my Xplay, removed all the bloatwares, installed Link2SD and Autostarts.
This way I've been able to save lots of ram and my Play starts really quickly and has improved its performances.
However,
however,
however...
This bloody facebook won't stop launching by itself: task killer cannot handle it, Autostarts cannot manage to prevent it from starting by itself. Went into the settings of the app to remove all notifications, but still, it's always there, in the running programms, taking between 20 and 50mb of precious RAM.
I suffer randomly from lags in demanding games and I suspect that's because of Facebook working in background...
Do you have another solution than simply removing it? Indeed, Xperia play is a great gaming device indeed, but it's also a great smartphone, and I want to enjoy it with its full potential. Facebook is part of it and the official app offers more possibility than the non-official ones, usually limited to some basic options.
I just want it to stay closed until I decide to launch it and use it by myself... And not in my back...
Thanks for your help!

Uninstall Facebook.
Use site on mobile or on pc.
May sound "stupid", but its the best way

To be honest the official facebook app for our phones is rubbish, Constant pointless updates what don't fix any bugs, eats up your phone memory plus ram,
Just remove it with X-plore if you have Root

Or try autostarts it's an app that lets u disable apps...im testing it at the moment with facebook

Just download romtoolbox, go on autostart and disable it

Actually, I've disabled Facebook and its extensions with Autostarts, but still, it remains and continues launching automatically! So I've just frozen it with link2SD and installed Friendcaster instead. So annoying!

Very freakin' simple. FREEZE IT.
I easily get near 200MB+ free RAM with FB frozen.
Use the mobile site via your browser instead. It's way better and faster anyway.

[Q] How to disable apps from running in RAM

Hi,
I've been using CM9beta2 on my Wonder for a while.
Now my phone it's starting to get too laggy so I'm trying to free up as much RAM as possible (having around 50MB available doesn't seem enough!).
However, many apps are always running, even though I disabled everything I could in the settings.
For example, google maps keeps regularly eating 5-10MB RAM, sometimes google Play too, etc...
Is there a way to keep apps out of RAM?
How do you do it?
The only solution I find otherwise, is to get the apk, and install apps when you need them, then uninstall them immediately...

Thanks, but... wouldn't Auto Killer Memory use more battery (or RAM) than having the apps running?
I mean, having smth that checks every few minutes running apps and that closes them... then they reopen again, and the Auto Killer closes them again, and so on... doesn't seem the best solution!
Am I wrong?

It really depend , but I try it and actually getting better result .
With CM9 rom there is a way to disable the apps that you don't need , just go to setting menu, chose manage apps, click the apps that you don't use , and click disable . But you have to make sure the apps that you disable WILL NOT effect other apps that in use . :silly:

Hi...there are two ways to do what you want to do....
The first is as you say to delete and re install the apps as you need them.....
The other way is to NOT delete them, but to FREEZE them. (This is the better option, and the option that I use) there are several apps that will do this, titanium backup (paid app) and Gemini app manager (free) to name two.
I use Gemini and it does EXACTLY what you are asking. You have to be rooted in order to use either of the apps I mentioned....but if you're using a custom rom, I guess you already are. Both apps are available in the Play Store, and there's an online tutorial on how to use Gemini....just Google it.......
Hit thanks if this helped
CM9....I don't have to...I just......can
