force close apps at once - OnePlus 3T Guides, News, & Discussion

hello.
i have so many apps installed and i don't use lots of them much So i force close them.i used to use hold back button to force close on other roms.but on oos there isn't this option.
now i am searching for an app that can force close a list of apps at once when i tap.
is there any app like this or am wasting time searching ?
my phone is rooted ( with supersu ).on open beta 6 and franco kernel.
thank you.:fingers-crossed:

No greenify doesn't conflict with it the opposite it is made to be comptabile with doze mode
You have to grant access to greenify to use it properly
And greenify the apps that you see that they must not work in background

Will greenify conflict with nap time?

I think You can use both but the 2 apps have options for aggressive doze you can't enable it in the two apps
You can configure aggressive doze with naptime
And hibernate apps with greenify

Why would you want to do this in the first place? OOS handles it just fine by itself. No need to constantly force close apps...

You have 6GB of ram, force closing apps will only cause the OS to cache all the apps again eating CPU and I/o resources. If you really need more juice I know greenify has a "shallow hibernation" mode that keeps apps in memory but stops apps background activity. I have never needed these apps with this phone as android is getting better with background tasks.

i used greenify,
set on " No root " and it force close list of apps just with one click.
thank you.

Alternatively, you can go to Settings>Advanced>Recent App Management and select "Deep Clear". It may seem like a bit much at first due to its very aggressive behavior but once you get the hang of it, it just might become your native app killer and best friend !
And if you really look into it or if you use it complementarily with others apps (SDMaid, NapTime, ...) You can manage to work around its (sometimes) annoying effects (like forcing to relaunch an app after a Deep Clear) or even make it event more efficient by preventing the killed app to launch again (bootflags and broadcast receivers for instance)!
I believe that apps should complete or expand your OS, but (almost) never substitute for your OS

prevent apps from starting while in standby?

while phone looks like its sleeping the apps are still working and using the processing power for whatever they are doing there behind the black screen.
and theres alot of apps that need to sync or update or pull data off the internetz
would that be a possible issue of standby battery drain?
i mean i can turn my phone on at random times and there will be 10-20 apps running in the background when i didnt even use them.
they just start check something and sut back down.
can i stop the apps from autolaunching?
remove task killer and run auto killer .. also use autorun killer to stop certain apps from starting. I would caution you to be careful what apps you stop. You make cause important apps not to work.

If there are apps running its cause they have a task to do. You can manually change your syncing to stop these apps from starting. Also try autokiller and set it to aggressive. This way the apps continue there task and android shuts them down faster than normal
Thanks for the tip. I have both running. I haven't stooped any apps from running with autorun killer, I'm hoping it does it on its own. The other is set on aggressive.

[Q] Certain app questions?

I'm looking for an app that helps kinda show off the S-pen for the Note 3 whether it's games or features. I also am looking for an app that helps stop all services or apps that aren't necessary to run the device when I turn the screen off. Something just to save battery ya know?

All the apps that feature the S Pen come preinstalled, I haven't found any games that will show it off or really benefit from its use however that doesn't mean there isn't one. There are similar non-Samsung note taking apps that have handwriting mode which allows you to use the S Pen but nothing really special other than MindBoard.
As for battery Greenify is a great app management app. With root and Xposed framework you can greenify system apps. Basically this is a hibernating app that allows you to hibernate apps at command or automatically with various settings based on your needs. The free version doesn't require root or Xposed, and the paid version is only a dollar or two. I would recommend this over a task manager/killer because it works around Android's behavior of restarting apps that get force closed.

Whitelisting Background Apps in Battery Saver mode

Hey guys,
Today I installed Lollipop 5.0.2 in my XT1068 and so far I'm really happy with it.
I'm testing the Battery Saver mode, one of the features of Lollipop that I was really intriged for. When it's on it seems to stop all background data from Whatsapp, an app that's more important than SMS for me. You don't receive any data while the phone screen is off, and you have to go specifically to the app to receive a message.
The problem here is that I don't see the option to add this app to any "whitelist" of background data and receive messages even when sleeping, as usual.
Is there any way to set that up? It's hard to believe Google would let that feature out, so I'm asking here first because I don't see any info in the Internet about this.
Thanks!
Currently you cannot whitelist apps on the Stock Lollipop Battey Saver mode. Hope Google comes out with that feature in the next L release.
Meanwhile you can download Greenify app from Playstore. It works similarly, you select the apps which you want to hibernate and then click hibernate. The apps which are running in the background will get force closed thereby reducing CPU and RAM consumption. It saves battery tremendously. If you are rooted then Greenify will auto-hibernate the apps after your screen turns off.
Hope this helped
Yes, I have Greenify Donation Package, but as of now Greenify support in Lollipop is not at 100%, because the lack of Xposed in this version. Without Xposed Framework you don't access all features I'd like to have.
I already seen some incomplete work from Google in Lollipop, like the not-so-polished notifications profiles, and RAM problems are not solved by any means.
Anyways thank you!

Greenify is more than enough.
Remember to dont use stupid task killer, because they close the apps in memory but after some seconds/minutes or at an event they come back in ram, so it generates a loop kill-open-kill-open. An application has not the permission to force stop another app without root permission or administrator permession(in setting), so most of apps in play store are unless...
Use greenify and hibernate all applications you want, remember that system applications has more permissions so greenify can close them but they may restart, like general task killer, so it is better to dont hibernate system apps and synced apps...
That's all
Dont destroy your smartphone installing thousand of task killer (or sh!t like "clean master").
That's my opinion

Limit Boot Permissions in OOS

A little bit of a shot in the dark here, but here goes...
In Lineage OS, there is an advanced permissions function in settings that allows one to set more detailed permissions for each app. It's organized in columns by Location, Media, and other categories, including Run In Background, and Run on Boot.
It's the Run on Boot I'm most interested in as a lot of times apps install and run on boot in the background and don't need to be.
I don't think this functionality is in OOS, or if it is, I can't find it. I also can't find an app, Xposed Module, or Magisk module for this.
I used to use XPrivacy but that's been abandoned?
Does anyone know of an app or module that would work for this level of permissions?
App Ops
Try App Ops, works great and is so much more userfriendly than Xprivacy. There is a Magisk Module for running process, but the app you'll find in play store.
I don't see any point. Boot time is already fast in oxygen os. & About the background apps after boot, they get killed if battery optimisation is on.

Thanks - this app is helpful for a lot of reasons.
I don't see an at-boot setting though.

Not boot-time related. Many apps load at boot and don't need to. They stay in memory, trigger wakelocks, and snooping areas in the background that shouldn't happen. They also re-start themselves after killing them because the OS thinks they should be running all the time. Youtube is one example. I have a photos app that does it. Several travel apps. Killing apps from loading at boot solves all of those problems, and when you kill them, they don't restart.
