Hi
I'm currently having problem with apps they are auto opening themselves.
Sometimes at startup when I open my open and use Helix/ADW all launcher manu apps are open automatically. It eats like 50MB of memory and battery.
And even while my screen turns off it opens app. I was sleeping and my screen is turn off/sleep and I check task panel it got apps open even the screen is lock.
Got No Idea on this. Why my apps are auto opening.
And do I need to debrand?
I just got a unit Unlocked
X10i
Baseband 1.0.14
Build Number R1FA014
Kernel 2.6.29-rel [email protected]#2
Do I really need to debrand?
Does it reset my phone and my settings/apps will be deleted?
TIA
It's not the X10, it's an Android thing.
Then how to get rid of this auto opening app? I never exp. this on 1.5 and 2.1 on my HTC Hero just on this 1.6
Get Automatic Task Killer or something similar, and set it to kill apps on open...if you find the apps opening affects your performance.
Also, if they're apps that sync with a service, make sure all syncing is off, or they'll keep coming up anyway, to try to sync with the cloud.
as a personal anecdote, once I stopped using task killers, the phone started running more stable and quicker.
So Task killers are not good?
I check my Task Panel once i boot my phone tons of APPS are open
Like Bluetooth file transfer
SMS Backup and Restore
Email
Alarm Clock
Calender
Settings Voice Dialer
It opens on startup.
seriously I just boot up my phone and use ADW Launcher and those open up automatically? what does those do? for startup? there are tons more like 25 apps on startup. This thing is not good since I'll do task killing always even the phone is screen off. My phone is opening Voice Dialer Handsent SMS even though i dont have message or calls received.
It's like every min or hour I'll do task killing it kills battery
Well, Alarm Clock has to be on, so it knows when to go off... If you don't have any alarms set, delete all the alarms that are in it.
Email is on by default, since it's a smart phone. If you don't have an account set up, email won't sync, and thus, isn't really doing anything. Calendar will attempt to sync with google if you set it up, but if not, again, shouldn't be doing anything. SMS will start to monitor for incoming SMSes. A lot of services start so they're there when you try to start them up. Basically, anything that has to sync to the internet to update will start automatically.
If things like Photoshop Mobile or a game or something start up, those should be killed.
Stand alone apps that don't access the internet should have no business starting up on their own.
Some people on here claim task killers are great and help a lot... some claim they do nothing. I'm torn, because the phone feels a bit faster than when I used the task killer everytime I unlocked the phone. If your phone is new, cycle the battery a few times, and let it 'break in' and, eventually, the battery life should improve.
Thanks. I'm just a little bit worried that I'm not aware that there are many task opening with me noticing or knowing it and use much battery as I do.
Some apps open automatically
I know that apps auto close ok , here's its invers..
Any how use some task killers frequently to kill them....
Or just unistall them

Android works by loading EVERYTHING it can into memory, up to a threshold and then removes apps from memory if they're not being used and memory is required for newly initiated applications.
Some apps have a terminate and stay resident approach and are seen as 'services' and they just stay active no matter what. Email, Calendars and status bar and etc never leave memory cause they're all waiting for there big moment, an email, an appointment, a finger touch etc.
Using a task killer doesn't really do anything, cause as soon as you 'kill' the process and the moment there is available memory again the process will just return to active/inactive memory because that's the way Android memory processing works.
If you have root access you can delete/freeze system apps you don't require.
A 'slim' Android v2.3 ROM shouldn't have more than approx 110 system apps. Less that 95 if you're good.

Most of the apps you listed are system apps and will, by their nature find there way into memory all the time. That's just how it is.
After a few hours of use many of the non-used apps will drop out of memory and others will take their place.
Loading applications into memory has a time and processing cost and so if it's already in memory, it's quicker to access.
However the Android system doesn't know your usage traits at start-up and that's why some less used system applications may be seem in memory until they're weeded out by those you do use. Again, nothing to worry about,
Using an XPERIA X10i with ~384MB of memory leaves little room for bloatware and thus a lean running machine is the order of the day for the XPERIA X10i.
Hi all,
Need help with my phone
I have the this problem that it reboots ramdomly
I tried various roms and still the phone reboot ramdomly
Please help because dont know where to look.
Now i have MIUI Rom installed at the moment
Here are some possibilities. Hope it helps.
1) Perhaps the mobile is too hot. Check the temperature (you could install a app to do it, like TempMonitor Lite). The X10 loves to work below 42° C (colder is better).
2) If the bug happens after you install your apps, perhaps your apps are using almost all the memory and the system can't find enough to use. Maybe you have a faulty app. You could uninstall some background running apps and / or check your amount with Auto Memory Manager (if you use the "Aggressive" profile it can free up some memory for the system to use).
3) Perhaps this is the time to visit your technical assistance. Your main board can even be damaged (sadly it can happens, for example, if your mobile is exposed too much time to hot temperatures).
i have my lenovo p770 and its been a month since i used it,
my problem that ive encounter was when i have a low ram the android cant even kill apps on its own to free ram for the apps the im gonna use. is my device defective? it forces the apps to crash , i asked the same users with me but they dont experience it. theres a solution to my problem, it is to restart the phone. but i dont want to restart it over and over again. i hope somebody can help. i try to search many many times but cant find solution. thx.
clarrification
my problem is unlike what u can suggest. that android will just free ram when needed to run a certain app. it forces the app to crash and the launcher a lag.here are some picts of it. i reset the phone several times monitoring it. even without games or whatsoever. it keeps increasing constant and hard to decrease it. in a purpose of casual use.
I have a Moto X Force on Android 6.0 (of course, rooted, bootloader unlocked, Xposed ...)
This is the first time I have this problem and also the first time that I have a smartphone that runs on marshmallow.
The apps will automatically close, I guess that's liberate RAM (mine is always full at least 85%) even while I use! (but that is very very rare).
Let me explain: I call on Skype, meanwhile I am on the internet on Firefox and suddenly Skype closes and no "Skype has stopped" or other not, the system simply kill the process.
When I write a event on Google Calendar, if I go to another app for too long Google Calendar closes automatically, and when I come back on it, I started to write is lost.
But that, at worst, I deal with it.
BUT HOWEVER, when I listen to music on youtube.com on firefox and I'm on another app and the system decide to close firefox, it drives me crazy!
Sometimes the system never closes Firefox, but as soon as the use of RAM is a little too intense, it closes all he can.
How to stop that Android arbitrarily close everything and anything? Are there some app can be defined as "non closable" like Firefox, Skype or another.
At worst, if there is no other way to fix the "auto kill issue", how to listen to music on youtube with the screen lock other than with firefox?
I'm not in the US so I can not use Youtube Music and when I use an app like Unpause Me, sound is chopped, there are plenty of cut, but what is very strange is that this problem ONLY happens only when the screen is locked or that I'm on another app that Unpause Me, when I'm in Uplause Me the sound is perfect ! (I also have this issue when I'm in skype call). (on my Galaxy S3 who running KitKat I don't have this issue at all)
Thank you for your help guys, I really need: /
My phone was serviced "reprogrammed" and when it came back I keep getting ads. I tried resetting the phone but it still keeps getting adware silently installed. Is there any way to fix this?
You are not alone. Bought this phone for my mom since she likes a bigger screen to do social media stuff. The malware popped in after the last ota. The official wirelessupdate app included on the phone silently installs random apks that pushes full screen ads and impersonates clicks even if the the phone is not being used. This is common with generic android phones coming from CHINA
I haven't figured out a way to root the phone as most rooting methods will fail(because of the sucky spreadtrum SOC which makes it difficult to root the phone).SADLY, rooting is the only way to disable/uninstall the wirelessupdate app.
However, here's a workaround I found that works.
1) restrict your network to limit background data usage (Found in settings).
2) **uninstall the malware app: finding the app may be difficult as It normally disguises itself as a system app with names like radio, settings, wifi or some application name that doesn't even make sense. It uses a lot of data and is always active. You'll know its the fake app if it poses as a system app but you have the option to uninstall it(System apps cannot be uninstalled without root/Su access).
Buttt....
The wireless update will probably install another malware app after uninstalling the current one.
3)disable notification of the app so it doesnt send fake notifications to you that opens ad based webpages as it also fakes notification, posing as a fake notif from FB, whatsapp
4) force stop it and stop the services from settings so it doesn't load or push apps while you use your phone
Restarting the phone will make the app run again
5) Remove the app's permission. By default its granted access to location, settings, storage and sometimes camera or mic. The wireless app doesnt detect this and wont turn those permission back on
6) lastly, you can contact firefly support AND PRAY TO THE GOOD LORD they know know what they're doing. Because I did and they were completely clueless on the troubleshooting or on the issue itself and even blamed the problem on the user. Ridiculously stupid.
I haven't really tried ADB yet because i don't have the time and the phone lacks resources online to restore it in case I brick it. Frankly, this phone is not worth investing time fixing especially with the quality of support it has from Firefly and the price it asked for.
