Autostartup of applications

This might be a general ICS question:
Is it useful to use applications like StartupManager in combination with ICS?
I disabled a number of apps I want to control manually... But I don't know if that could have the opposite effect by making Startup Manager having to kill the app every time if it keeps on restarting... Or is it really killed once?

I think it depends on the App you try to keep from starting.
Apps can be started via various triggers. Some start only after boot, others start at certain times and others when you get an email. Layar for example starts every time when an App is installed.
Depending on the trigger which starts the App it's more or less usefull to kill it.

I uninstalled the StartupManager application, I noticed a significant speed increase (personal feeling)
So I must conclude the startup blocking applications are not advisable on ICS...

I wouldn't subscribe this in general. Every App is different to others. If an App only starts on boot automatically killing it does no harm (unless you want to use it...). But if it starts every second automatically killing it at start would make a big mess.
At least there are different possibilities to prevent autostart. Some Apps just kill the Apps. That's more a taskkiller. Others can figure out the reason why the App starts an block it when it wants to start. This is much more efficient.

[Q] Problem with the internal storage of Galaxy Fame

Hello guys, someone can help-me here?
There are some days I'm having problems with my phone.
every time I'd install an application it gave the error message "no storage space" but HE WAS VERY AVAILABLE SPACE!
I opened the app android assitant by chance and saw this:

Now i ask: WHY THIS HAPPEN?
Please help me!
Thanks for listening.

There are different partitions in your phone: most of the storage is for pictures, music etc. and just a little bit is available for installing apps. I also always had problems with low storage space for apps, used the Avg CachCleaner app to clear cache and get storage back. Hope this helps.

From a G3 to a G4 : restore my apps

Hi, I've pre-Ordered my G4 on Amazon, and next week, it will be mine replacing my G3.
As the G4 if not rootable yet (so no titanium), how to easily put all my apps and their data on my new device?
Thanks for your answers

LG Backup Tool, either on the phone or with the LG Tool Kit from their website.
No root needed on either devices.

Use the LG backup tool, then copy the folder onto a PC desktop. When you get the new phone, copy that folder onto the new LG, then do a restore.

I can do that on my sdcard, without a computer? Nova launcher will be restored with icons at their right places?

You can backup Nova within Nova settings. It creates a file that you can then copy to your SD card, and restore from your new phone.

If your old phone also has lollipop you can do a tap and restore. It's an option when you first get your phone and start setting it up.

I have lollipop on my "old" g3.
So if I "tap and restore", all my apps with their settings will be restored on the g4?

No. It just redownloads all the apps from the other device.You will still have to setup most of them. Except some google apps that save the settings online and possible a few others. But mostly you will have to re do settings. I don't think there is a non root way like titanium backup for restoring data. I will be having this same issue soon.

Use backup&reset under general settingsnon your G3 and launch the LG backup app on your G4. It uses wifi direct to transfer everything. I can say that more than 90% of your apps settings will be copied. I did not need to sign in on instagram, and even all the settings on my outlook are copied. My homescreen and app drawer customization are there as well. Pretty neat I must say

Have i to insert my sd card in the g4 before to restore?
Envoyé de mon LG-D855 en utilisant Tapatalk

I had to swap my device and did a backup to sd card . I have been "restoring" now for 45 min and I'm only at 6%, is this normal?

If you use the backup function to your sd card, it will allow you to insert in in the G4 and restore it from that backup. However, as much as I got it to give me all my accounts and passwords, apps, settings, etc, I still have a weird issue. My screen brightness will always start at 100% regardless of how I set it before reboot. As far as the issue with the touch screen that others experience, it's mild to me and probably something that can be calibrated. I'm pretty sure that the reason for the glitches are caused by trying to port the G3 to the G4. I know it's a pain, but starting from stock just using it as Google intends to reapply your apps is the better option and will not have such issues. I know we all get comfortable with the way we set up a device, but I guess that's the point of upgrading. I went through all three ways of trying to port over my G3. 1- tap and go. Only transferred simple accounts. 2- WiFi direct. Did more for apps, but left the new phone otherwise stock. Meaning no customized desktop or lock screen and such. 3- backup and restore from sd card. Worked the best, but still seems to throw the G4 off balance in some ways. Got a mirror image of my G3, but other things are glitchy.
Example, the screen brightness on boot. Maybe even the long press on a key to select the -. Every time I have to hold that key for a good 10 sec! If not more.
So, at this point, I'm ready to start from scratch just to see what the differences are. I use punctuation as a person should. So therefore I don't want to hold a key for more than a second like on my G3.
I hope this helps the group, but I could use some feedback over the issues I'm experiencing. Ty in advance.

Clean start won't solve the terrible brightness issue. It will always start at 100%, it's utterly annoying.
Luckily I could install Lux as I'm rooted so that issue is gone for good :good:

Root? Already? How? Yes for G3, but no info on root for G4 as far as I've found. I just gave my info on how it played out on a restore to G4 from G3. Did I miss something? I'm not a developer or a coder, but I'm a good example of why those ppl exist. I'm not scared to get my hands dirty. Like a car. I do work on that just the same. I may not know everything, but I know how to play the field to score for said action. So... Root for G4? Pls share...

Issues with RR 3/19/17

Using this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-resurrection-remix-m-t3399960
I followed the instructions exactly, and yes I know how to flash a ROM. I used to have a Nexus 6.
On the latest build there are a few issues:
1. Cannot login to Snapchat (says unavailable, after checking device status)
2. The OTA update menu crashes
3. Cannot remove startup pin, even after removing screen lock. I tried security settings, but the replace encryption password menu also crashes
Other than these it's pretty solid, and good battery.
(only posting here because it wouldn't let me reply to his thread)

1. Snapchat wont let login if your rooted at all
2. I never used ota so dont know
3. Thats weird

Actually I was able to fix all of these by using the official builds: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...pment/rom-kernel-resurrectionremix-n-t3524715
EDIT: All except Snapchat, which I fixed by unrooting, logging in, and re-rooting. It only seems to check for root when you log in, so once you're in its good. However if you log out you have to go back through these steps.

I know a ton of people use titanium backup, but I honestly just can't even get past the design of the app. I hated holo when it came out, and hate it even more now that material is here. But it honestly is no real issue to me to log back in that way, 5 minutes tops.

I'm not quite sure how this is the "old way", its more of the manual way. But, to each their own. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

U can't have different contacts on both, unless u use a different Android user, but that beats the purpose of having parallel apps and that sucks...

What do you mean, alexiuss, with " U can't have different contacts on both, unless u use a different Android user " ??
So, if i use Parallel Apps, could i use a second Android user, and switch back to the other Android user, when i leave Parallel Apps ?
The user gotshoaib says, it's possible. What now ??
Thanks

You can't have other contacts when using parallel WhatsApp, both will use the same contacts. The only way to have different contacts is with another user account on the phone...

Can I have two different accounts with two different Whatsapp contacts , on Android 6.0.1 as well?
