Why is it Task manger only Show like 16-20 recent taks even if the recent app is still in background(cached)
is there any other app for that or any way to remove that limit
i found this app which shows 30-40 recents apps https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ms.salt.prehome&hl=en
but problem is it starts the app from start not from where i left it
thanks
no one?
it doesn't show which are running on background but the last 15 apps were in use.
cheers
Hi all!
I just downloaded the app SwipePad, which lets you swipe from the edge and have a launchpad with my favorite apps, but i don't like the icon in the notification tray. There is an option to hide the icon, but if i close all apps in the task switcher, SwipePad closes too. Is there an app that let me force android to keep open the app without the notification icon? I have seen multiple apps with root support, that hides the icon, but keeps the app running, but that isn't build into SwipePad.
Thank you in advance

Please
Anyone?
Bump! Sorry...
UPDATE: The pool closed after 30 days, but you can still show your need for the feature by adding a post in this thread.
Right now, Remix handles background app activity differently from native Android - if you close the app window, the app is killed - won't continue running in background.
At first glance it feels intuitive and right, because it's battery & performance friendly, but...
Many apps were designed to base their activity in the background like: messaging & social media apps, e-mail clients, network monitors and quite much any app that uses notifications.
Of course you can still run them in background with the window minimized - but that takes up the taskbar space with each background app.
In Windows you can close the window, and the app goes into the traybar (near the date) and doesn't take up the taskbar space.
What I'm requesting is simple:
An autorun permission toggle in settings
By default apps would have autostart switched off, but you could always switch it on for selected apps.
This way we wouldn't have to worry about performance or battery usage - system will still use only what we want it to.
Please vote in the pool and share your thoughts on this suggestion. If you are not convinced, then read further on
Examples where this feature is needed:
Messenger app:
- notifies you about new messages/calls in the notifcation area
- pops a chat head once someone sends you a message (if feature enabled)
Cloes Messenger window -> no notifications received/no chat heads popups.
Actually what's weird - it sometimes autostarts itself - at least on my device. I couldn't find how that happens, but it seems random.
Gmail / e-mail apps:
- send you notifications when you receive an e-mail
Close window -> No notification
Facebook/Instagram/Twitter/Tapatalk/YouTube these also use the power of background activity by notifying you about new stuff. Closing window -> no notication.
There are also monitoring apps - f.e. Internet Speed Meter which main feature is a notification in the notification area showing real-time bandwith usage. It won't work for Remix unless you keep the window open/minimized.
Clock app for settng alarm -> Close Window -> No alarm
Come on guys!
I personally would love to have this feature and I bet the community would want it too! But, for this to happen, we need more votes!
I vote, yes for the toggle.
Yes of course but for Selected apps.
@johnb111 Like I described in the OP, it would be just for the selected apps.
I need it !! Please !!

No need for this kind of repetition.
Just thank the OP's first post, and that counts as support for the addition of this feature.
Unless you have specific details to add, it's better to avoid cluttering the thread.
No offence meant to anyone, just a suggestion to keep in mind.
Can you please confirm my understanding that Remix OS does not have background notifications if the app is closed unlike the normal Android OS? Do you think this is a deal breaker since im considering to get a tablet with Remix OS in it vs the one with Android 5.1.1? Thanks in advance for your thougths!
Yes, that's correct - once you close an app window you will not get any notifications from it.
But an autostart toggle could solve this?
@[msd]
Yes, autostart toggle allows for app to start automatically - not just at boot, but also after you close it.
Native, clean Android allows all apps to autorun by default.
Phoenix OS f.e. added a toggle. By default app can NOT autorun, but you can always enable this permission.
I"m on 3.0.207 Remix OS, and get notifications after hit "Quit app" at Gmail. How it works??
@[msd]
Depends on how the app is designed. I don't know why it works after closing, Remix OS has no documentation for how it works, so its hard to say.
If you close Messenger app window, you will not get any further notifications or if you close Alarm app, it won't ring. There are many examples, but it's worst with messaging apps and apps that operate in background only.
It"s true, the Viber doesn"t work after close it, only the Gmail.
Google always break the rules, haha
@[msd] its probably the Google services that are always working in the background
Yepp, I"ve updated it.
Override the autrorun
With the app SD Maid, I know you can change the autorun for apps. Try that.
Sleep and Shutdown support for Intel Atom
This is an ideal OS for the Intel Atom mini laptops. I would love to see the sleep/shutdown issue resolved on the next update. It's they only problem I have discovered while using it on this processor.
Currently I work around it by not letting it sleep. I shut it down by initiating a restart, and then powering off when the HP splashscreen or Bios message appears.
Hi guys,
I am using the small eui rom v26.
I recently discovered that the system is killing the background processes of whatsapp and facebook messenger. This results in a temporary unavailability (cannot receive messages and calls) until i lock the apps in the phone's task manage. Is there a way to disable this task killer to solve this matter?????
Also the above mentioned apps don't start on boot
Bump
Yes I have same problem, this bug should be in Aurel Topic so he is working on V17 right now.
go to dialer and tap: *#*#46360000#*#*
and deaktivate: Enable Background Resource Control

Doesn't work, There is a tutorial for a LePro 3 but it doesn't work if you kill the app from the background task (where you set the brightness)
I have many persistent notifications where the app won't work if it's hidden - E.g. Adguard, Lastpass, Whatsapp and more.
Is there any other way to hide them but still have a full functioning app in background? Using P30 Pro currently.

You mean hiding the notification using notification controls make the app stop working ? I used to hide the spotify player from appearing in my notification shade, but the music kept playing. Maybe let them open in your recent apps menu. Also check in the "Battery optimisation settings. Usually apps stops working because it's stopped by battery optimization.
nope, battery optimization is disabled but if it's not kept running in the background USING persistent notifications, the app will be killed.
anyone knows how to hide all these pesky notifications?
