Do Installed Widgets Consume RAM memory when off? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i turned off all my widgets to save ram, but they are all in the widget tab.
Do i gain ram if i disable them in titanium backup so they dont appear in the widget list?
Or if they are off i can leave them.
Thanks.

Anyone please

Of course but so what that doesnt have to do with battery consumption.
Keep reading dude.

No if they are not on a homescreen they won't take memory.

[Q] Wolfbreak's CM6 firmware autokilling apps

So uh... how do i prevent the firmware from autokilling apps i "homed" out from (just pressing the home button)? it's keeping it at ~90MB free RAM, and because of it, multitasking of non-system apps and services is almost impossible.
sure this makes it more responsive, but anyway i can tweak this setting? thanks in advance!

Use app called autokiller memory optimizer, you can set it to apply at boot and use moderate setting so it wont kill apps until you dip under 40Mb free, wolfs got inbuilt of somewhere between 80-100, so you will be able to multi-run many more apps.

[Q] Hide adwlauncher from task manager active app

Hi i know this is a foolish question.. but how can i hide adw launcher from task manager active app?. i already move the adw apk to system/app and rebooted but still it is active app. i want it to be hidden from active apps because i use it as my default launcher..
please do not flame me.. i already searched google and this forum but i cant find any related answers..
Moving it around will not make it less an active app as it is. Launchers are your home screen and they do have to be active and not be empty tasks.
So you should save your strength trying to make it become not an active app when it is running.

Standard limit for background process?????

1)Does someone here knows what's the standard limit for background process in our s3?????
2)And does swiping them from recent apps really kills the app or it just remove them from the recent apps list???????

1) i dont think there is any standard.. your android kills apps as soon as your ram fills up
2)no..it doesnt kill..it just removes it from the recent list

Hi,
For the first question, what do you mean exactly? About Low Memory Killer?
For your second question: http://stackroulette.com/android/19...-you-swipe-an-app-out-of-the-recent-apps-list with some explanations from Dianne Hackborn (Android Framework Engineer), some parts are very interesting.

Finally, some evidence!
I'm sick of people saying it doesn't close apps, all you have to do to test it yourself is open a few apps, open task manager, look at used ram, open recent menu and swipe everything away and check ram again.
Thanks viking37!

Is there a way to stop people from asking the same questions over and over?
Please use the search function.
Short version: if your phone starts running low on available Ram, it will kill unnecessary cached apps you are currently not using. You can change WHEN it triggers the killing, but not really the WHAT.

[Q]

I'm running the ICS official firmware on my GTab P7500.
My other devices has a Clear All button on the recent apps. How can I add a button like that on my p7500 (was running CM10.1 untill last week but I prefer stability over new features, however the CM10.1 had a button like that.
Maybe a tutorial or something. Thanks!
In task manager, touch the second tab where it shows you the amount of ram available. There is a button which clears ram, similarly like the clear all button.

First of all I'm sorry that I've not completed the topic title with my question.
What I want is a clear all button, not to go in task manager, ram manager and clear ram witch doesnt do the same thing. Try clear ram then open the recent apps, they are still there.
Clearing the ram means you clear the background apps from your ram, thus gaining more ram. Its similar to the clear recent apps in cm10.1.

If you say so maybe it is, but the recent apps are still there after I press clear Ram. Anyway I've wanted a clear all button or maybe a widget on the desktop, something like that, not to go to task manager, ram manager, clear ram.
Well, in the recent apps I think you can swipe away the apps one by one if that's what you want.

. Yes, I know that, but if you have like 20 apps what do you do?
Ummm, swipe one by one 20 times?
