Theme and Gallery process running all the time. - Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers

Can anyone explain why the Gallery and Theme app is always running in processes / background ? I don't use cloud to sync or backup images . Also if I disable mobile data permission for the gallery app it complains and prompts that mobile data is off. Why ?
The other thing I noticed, when viewing running apps under battery usage menu, they dont show running in the developer running apps/processes menu. Anyone know why?

[APP Help] Widgetlocker

I am running Myn's Warm 2.2, and I can't tell if this is a ROM issue or what, but when I run widgetlocker, I have a custom slider going to my SMS inbox. I dont use the default messaging app, I use handcent/go sms, but whenever I use widgetlocker to the sms inbox, it automatically opens the default app, and gives no options for the other one's.
Any ideas of what to do?
P.S. I also edited some of the .png's, dont know if that could be the issue?
Wow...2 days and no response...have you made your new messaging app the default in the system?

Is it possible the SMS slider is pointing to the "Messages" app inbox specifically? In contrast to pointing to the system default value for your assigned SMS app?
I think it may be, because the only way to get it to slide to the app i want without using the ugly shortcut of the app itself is to delete the mms.apk. But go sms doesnt show notifications w/o the stock apk. Is there a way to change it to point to the system default? I get nbo option to make an app the default through widgetlocker?
Thanks for finally responding and trying to help guys
how do I make an app the default in the system?
I sent an email to the dev, and linked him to this thread, so maybe he will post the answer here. If not, i will, just in case this issue shows up in the future.
Android's handling of the app defaults is awkward, hence the various apps on the market (including my HomeSmack) to help switching between default Home programs.
The only way to set a default app as of 2.2 is to launch it in a generic way* when there is no default set. Then you'll get the list with the checkbox to set it as a default.
So really what you need to do is clear the default, then slide the SMS slider in WidgetLocker. You should be able to clear the default by:
System Settings > Applications > All Applications > Messaging (Or whatever current default app is) > Scroll down and click Clear Defaults.
Note, you want the Clear Defaults button, not the Clear Data button.
However some vendors might set their app at a higher priority making it impossible to change the default.
The coming update for WidgetLocker will allow you to select an app shortcut and then independently change the icon. Either to your own, or one of the WidgetLocker built in slider icons.
*For the curious:
Code:
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_MAIN);
intent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms");
intent.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(intent);

Has anyone ever told you they love you? Cause I do....awesome app too!
Sent from God, who uses CM7 RC1.
I love you so much lol.
So is there a way to use that last part so I can direct the slider myself or should I just wait it (i hope short) out?
Thanks so much again for responding

I'm running 2.0 and the functionality is indeed there. However I would just recommend deleting the slider off and then re-adding it and using a shortcut. Don't know if that helps, as I highly doubt that it will show the number of unread messages.
Hey Kevin I love the app but I keep having a few problems maybe you can help.
I'm on CM7 nightly #5 and widgetlocker slows it down significantly. I also keep running into the problem of all my Widgets disappearing randomly and never coming back. The background is still there but its blank.
Love the app. Thanks

I'm also having the problem of Widgets dissappearing.... happens after upgrading to a new nightly or after a random reboot..... being able to backup settings would be very helpful.....

Off topic, but for what it's worth, I'm having terrific results with WL in combination with an app called "No Lock" which disables the stock lock screen. No Root necessary.
I am rooted though running SkyRaider and now Warm 2.2 with Sense 2.0. I was always having problems with WL locking up my screen when the cpu got going and I was turning my screen on and off a lot quickly. Lots of black screens and such but never any problems without WL. So I run "No Lock" and WL runs perfectly.
Off topic, but good info and testing none the less.

[Q] Clarification on "swiping" away apps in the app switcher?

I've seen conflicting reports on IF it in fact closes the application by swiping it away in the app switcher.
Can someone clear it up with some kind of evidence?
According to TaskKiller, it does. Open TaskKiller and then swipe away apps from the ICS running apps list. They also disappear from the TaskKiller pane.
What I'm saying is that it *does* close apps, but not all running apps are always located in that list. If an app opens in the background, it won't display in that list.

List of apps or services that can be disabled safely? Best app to disable background

I am using AIO Toolbox which has a function to disable user apps and system apps from starting with the phone, since most of those are installed i figure they arent important and i can disable them all but with system apps its a bit more difficult to know and there are 168 in total
For example a system app that i never use is google music, briefing, cnn for edge panel, fb, game launcher, gear vr, game tools, yahoo etc;
Should i use AIO toolbox is there a better way to do so, is there any adverse effect, or does samsung automatically not allow those never used apps to affect battery life

Cannot change battery optimization in application installed as system app

Hello.
My Gmail app only allows me to disable so I assume it's installed as a System App.
One thing that this does is that for Gmail I can't change the battery optimization setting.
I've tried using Link2SD to convert it to a user app but without success.
Any idea how can I set it to a user app or uninstall it so I can change the battery optimization setting?
Thanks

Once the app is disabled the battery settings for that app are greyed out because the app is not running hence there are no settings to be changed nor are they needed

Question How to make invisible application that runs in the background?

I want to use the edge panel application for contacts, but I need:
When I delete applications in the background to keep this application active. I know I can lock it and when deleting applications in the background, this application will still run. However, I need this application to be locked, but after deleting the applications in the background, this application could not be seen as still active. Because when I delete this application, of course the edge panel is not active, otherwise I have to start it again by opening the application. Is there any way for this app to still run in the background, but you haven't even seen it run in the background?
I will answer for myself, but maybe I will help someone with that as well.
If you lock an application that is running in the background while clearing the memory and move it to the left to remove it, it will still run, but you will not see it running in the background.
however, if the application also locks, but you remove it by moving it down, it will run in the background! Beware, something else is to tap the cross to remove background app and something else is to remove the app from the background by dragging - swipe it from the screen to the left side.
