Hey ol friend I'm not sure about an "app ops" type of app. However, you may want to look into "My Android Tools" from the PS. It allows you to shut down background running services on virtually any app you have, including system apps, while still allowing you to use the app when you need it. Not sure if that's what your wanting to do, but I thought I'd throw it out there for you ??

I know you have my friend, but honestly, there would be too many screen shots to post! It monitors every app, both user and system, and then allows you to shut down what you want. Best advice I can give is to just try it out. Here's a little tip, I monitor what's running in developer options/running services, if I see something always running when I'm not using it, I shut that particular service off :good:

The easiest way to control Play Services is Sysconfig Patcher (Magisk module). It patches Play Services and other system files to go into doze standby, no Xposed needed :good:

I used Enable doze for GMS module before Sysconfig patcher. Enable doze for GMS module is great for what it does, but it is a one-trick pony. Sysconfig patcher modifies additional files to allow doze for those as well, which saves more battery.

If OP still considers a good App Ops, I'm using this one which is good enough for me: App Ops - Permission manager.
It also has a Magisk Module to make it as a system-privileged app.

Hi
I've tried and looked for several apps to manage the app permissions: LBESM, Pdroid, XPrivacy and so on...
Some apps don't work correctly and others aren't compatible with AOSP 4.2.2.
I'd like to have your point of view to have trust app to manager the permissions and if possible (or another app) to identify possible malwares.
Atm the better one for Permissions mangement is "Permissions Management" available in my Rom and BitDefender Mobile Security for malwares.
Thanks.
PS: I know that several topics already deal with this subject but I'd like to discuss with fresh information and compatible (AOSP 4.2.2 + Note II).
I would recommend you to use ROM toolbox.
it has inbuilt auto start manager which helps you to manage permissions efficiently.
Thanks, I'll have a look soon.
What is the exact option?
Edit
I found it.
Other ideas ?

I think it is but I don't know the difference if you install other than #38 for SGW.
To check:
Manage apps> all or downloaded> look and tap Google Play Services 5.0.88 (1297476-038) (38 is the one ur using)

If I not make a mistake, the diffence between #38 and #34 or anyone else is in the density. The number indicates for which DPI density the application was made.
Now I'm using #34 without problems.

Debloat listed apps to speed up or eliminate lag. Uninstall apps not needed, Freeze apps or system files you're not sure to Uninstall. And then create or wait for custom roms.

System App Remover (root) is excellent for this.
This is excellent free app for debloating. It tells you what can be safely removed and what should be left alone and allows for batch uninstall.

Big one for me is getting up and running quick with Titanium Backup restores. Bought before root was out this time but normally.
Disabling stuff too.
Adblock plus, Lucky patcher
Also upgrade Google Maps back to 6.14.4 is a huge one on my phone. Not so much on the tablet but I may use it in the car more. Will need My Maps for travel.
Custom ROM's when they are out.
Probably forgetting something.

How much would you say debloating helped with speeding up your device? Does it fix the delay from when you press the home button and the animation running? Does it smooth out the stuttering in animations?

How will you use google map/navigator on the tablet? Is your table with 4G? As far as I know google map requires network access.
I am using CoPilot for navigating in the car. It uses downloaded maps.
With my phone I have been using google navigation but I did not like it too much. It is too insistent with its idea of where to go. It will only
recalculate the route after many miles passed its suggested direction. I had this issue in highway, it may be different in city navigation.
I rooted my S 8.4 wifi (T700) and cleaned bloatware.. now I would like to install twrp or cwm.. to make a backup and play deeper with the toy..
Has anyone done it already? Any different from other androids?
Thx.
@Peter234: Probably tethering. I have zero problems using my Note 3 as a hotspot. I also think that Google Maps will let you 'cache' a route as well; IIRC it's one of the Labs features.

Debloating doubles your battery life, and the device will always respond much faster because those running system apps eat up a lot of RAM and CPU power. After I did a massive debloat, the lag and stuttering pretty much went away.
You can also install root apps, which can speed up your RAM, prolong battery life, and improve performance. My favorites are Greenify, SD Booster, and Autokiller.
http://www.phonearena.com/news/Got-ROOT-Here-are-the-root-Android-apps-you-must-try_id46065
De bloating does not double your battery life not even nearly double. Also 80% free RAM is no quicker than 20% free RAM. Sure, improvements can be had but let's keep things in the realm of reality here.
I just got my Pixel 2 XL yesterday from Google. I am asking to get the best battery life possible, do I need to run apps like Leendroid, Naptime, and Greenify ? Or with 8.1 are those apps not really needed today ???

If you are rooted with magisk you can install doze enabler for play services, you can check my thread for list of magisk modules
That helps a lot as play services eat battery
This will surely increase your stand by time
