If I'm the last to know you can make fun of me. Just read in my Get Started user guide if you hit the back button instead of the home button it turns the app off.
That's why I always seem to have several apps running
I hit home a lot, now I know
Enjoying my 3vo
in android the background processes barely touch the battery it's managed well and you don't have to worry about them being open.

Bwahahahahahahah!!!!
With that out of the way, there are some really poorly coded apps that kill the battery even if it's not doing anything in the background. Even if the app does not, it takes away available memory, though it's usually not that much.
P.S. The first line is a joke .
any app that you can close with the back button(android has always done this as far as i know) you can also close in the task manager
but ive tested. not all apps close with the back button(still shows as running in Applications). probably something the dev of the app needs to allow

It's by far my favorite launcher but has anyone else noticed instability in the last few updates?
I have noticed it. It's really screwing up my phone. It lags so bad now. What have you been noticing?
Tons of lag, but it's fixable if you go to advanced settings, memory settings, and turn off cache. Restarting the phone into recovery, going to other, and then fixing uid mismatches after turning off cache fixes it. Hopefully the dev will fix it completely and let us still use cache.
Turns out it was just my phone. I went back to just the sense and the phone is still extremely slow.
Verizon is sending me my second replacement.
huh... I'll try vanilla.
Really love it so far, especially the landscape view on home screen, and not to mention the multiple docks(3). I haven't noticed any lag at all, but that could be because it's running off the sd card. Also, the 3d app drawer is pretty cool, a nice change, and a refreshing way to browse the app drawer.

No lag here, I love Launcher Pro. I'm on CELB 2.7
I had a look at whats running after a re-boot:

Other them Display brightness, Thumb Keyboard, Google Services and Gallery, why are the others running? I imagine that secphone and Samsung Push Service are required to make the phone work and have my mail pushed. Gps Navigator shows restarting all the time until I turn in on then goes in process. What of those should be frozed as I dont use them at leased for now unless other app are using them.
Those are system apps which are meant to be run by default. If you close most of them, your phone might not function properly like lets say when you get an email or a message, the notification will not be shown if they are force stopped.
Yes, I agree, some apps like Samsung Apps, Maps...etc keep running when you hardly use them.
If its still a pain for u to have these apps running, Use Root Explorer to freeze/Uninstall those apps or just add ".bak" extension to the apk incase if you will ever need these apps.

App Clip access your apps with a simple fling...

Thanks! I just installed it and am liking it a lot! One thing that could be better would be more/custom gestures; I really like swiping in from the right, but it can hinder simple touch presses on the right-side of the screen

True, found that out also... It appears the software is still in development so i hope its gets better and better
try this, i use it on my phone all the time. it doesnt work off of a fling, but it lets you adjust several different grids in several locations, i put mine on top left, i RARELY trigger it with a simple tap
So I after a long time saw what apps were consuming data on my phone and its rather disturbing what I saw. This is one month's figures.

Why on earth is talkback using that much data when I dont even have the service enabled??
Next up is nova launcher prime. I did grant it permission to collect data but that much in just a month??
Next up is beautiful widgets, again why on earth does a weather app need to use that much data??
Next up is clean master, I dont even use it that much so how could it be using that much data?
The last one is actually the most shocking one "MultiTouch tester" app because I havent even opened that app in like months.
Is it really normal for apps that gather data to do it that much in a month? Not only does it seem a problem with privacy but also with battery life under wifi. Remember all of these apps have many downloads and great ratings on the play store so its not a case of them being shoddy apps.
What is your opinion on all this?
Hi, I have noticed an alarm that is constantly 10 mins ahead of the actual time. I have no alarms in the stock clock app and I have uninstalled the only 3rd party alarm app, yet it still shows and just constantly rolls remaining 10 mins ahead of the current time. No alarm ever goes off.
I'm using Nova 7 as my launcher, but it still shows on the locksmith even after I change back to the Pixel launcher. I have only noticed this after installing the Dec software update.
Can anyone help me to get rid of it? It's doing my head in. Thanks.
