If I hibernate an app like Facebook, its hibernated.. why does it wake back up? how can it wake back up if I dont open it or call it or do anything to share to it etc...Makes no sense.
I am rooted with greenify installed, I hibernate Facebook. Facebook is set to no chat, no notifications, nothing.. it has everything you can disable disabled... yet time after time again of hibernating it, I wake my screen up and do a manual manual hibernation OR i open greenify and Facebook is right there under Apps that will be hibernated soon. i can see the message tha says "Facebook was hibernated when i do a manual hibernation but it always seems to come back on its own.
There are quite a few apps which will wake up Facebook in the background. In particular, any apps which offer to allow you to sign in via a Facebook identity. Even though you might not have signed up via Facebook, those apps will often wake up FB anyway.
If you want to ensure FB doesn't wake up, then you need to install Xposed framework, enable the Greenify module in Xposed and then tick the option on Greenify for Wake-up Tracker and Cut-off. You can then disable having other apps open FB.

How can I disable other apps from waking up FB (or in general waking up other apps)? Via Greenify? Or do I need another app?
You need to root, then look up the thread on xda on how to install Xposed framework.
Then enable Greenify on Xposed.
Then there is an option in Greenify to cut off the wake ups

All done before. But beside a text notification below the name of the greenified app stating which app woke up the greenified app there is no possibility to cut off those wake-ups.
If you highlight FB on Greenify there should appear a scissors icon on the top left.

Ah, yes. This was the option I was looking for. Thank you
For other users facing the same problem: selecting the app that has been woken up (still running, not yet greenified) by long-press -> clicking on the appearing scissor symbol in the action bar will open a pop up notification where you have to confirm you want to prevent this greenified app from being woken up by other apps.

Hmm, quite difficult to take a screenshot, as I can't find another app on my device which wakes up other apps as I have already cut off all such apps.
Try the following steps:
1. Open an app of which you know that it wakes up FB.
2. Close this app or go back to your homescreen.
3. Open Greenify and go to the section, where all apps that are greenified are shown (not the section where you can add apps to be greenified!) -> should be start page by default.
4. Now you should see that the app you have opened is running, but also FB, which has been woken up by this app.
5. Long press on the FB entry.
6. Now the scissor symbol should appear in the action bar and you can prevent FB from being woken up.

Try short press instead of long press during step 5.
BTW: make sure you have enabled Greenify in Xposed modules, rebooted your device afterwards and enabled the option "Track and Cut Off" in Greenify's experimental options.

You seem to have some issue. I see that one app says it was woken up by 'Home' which means that Wake up Tracker and Cutoff is enabled. But the other apps do not say how they were woken up.
Better uninstall Greenify and then reinstall following the recommended procedure and for good measure clean up data also.

Had the same problem, and this solved it! Thanx, this setting is sooooo non-intuitive...
I cut FB from SayHi and Skout. then i decided that i might actually want to have SayHi to be able to wake up FB, so I reattached it. but it seems to have reattached everything else to FB. and I can't see the scissors icon anymore. FB doesn't say "woken up by..", it now says "content provided: AttributionIdProvider". I have tried clearing data and reinstalling the 3 apps and Greenify itself, didn't fix it. Any ideas? Thanks!
I'm on rooted S4 mini LTE running Android 4.4.2 stock and Greenify 2.6 beta 8.
nvm, scissors are showing on Greenify 2.5.2.
Is the "Track and Cut Off" function still on Greenify? I can't find it in version 2.7.1. Or is it a paid function?

I am on v2.7.1 (donation version) and the wake-up path cut-off option is still available for me, despite the fact that there is no checkbox to tick in the experimental options any more.

Yesterday the Dev stated this in another sub thread:
"Since the wake-up cut-off engine is upgraded in 2.6, Greenify now does not list the detailed paths cut-off due to the complexity, and the "re-attach" action re-attaches all the paths cut-off. I'm planning to bring back more details in Greenify for cut-off paths in the future version."
So is the Cut-off thing just for the donation version?

As I am using the donation version and have this option available, whereas you don't have this option, I would say: yes. But have you tried looking for the scissor icon for different apps? The wakeup-path cut-off option does not work for all apps, so you might want to check it by clicking on apps that are listed under "running" when you open Greenify (main screen).

* This is an Xposed module. You MUST have Xposed Framework installed. Otherwise this app WILL NOT FUNCTION.. You can download Xposed here: http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
With Quick Access, you can allow your selected apps to be launched over the lockscreen without unlocking your device. You can also swipe up from the on-screen home button to launch Google Now or launch applications from lockscreen widgets without unlocking your phone . For example, allow your camera, music, and to-do list applications to be launched over the lockscreen to access them in an instant. Allow your friends to browse your music library without fully unlocking your device, quickly add a task to your to-do list; or never miss that photo opportunity; with Quick Access the possibilities are limitless!
In addition, Quick Access also enables you to expand your status bar in secure lockscreen and also show all widgets (instead of only lockscreen widgets) in lockscreen widget picker
Computer Mode: This allows you to let the timer keep going, even when the screen is off. This means that you can use EyeRelax to limit your time on the computer, television, or whatever other device you own, without using battery to keep the screen on and the timer running!
Notes:
- To launch applications from DashClock widget, please select DashClock in Quick Access. Or more specifically the activity: com.google.android.apps.dashclock.WidgetClickProxyActivity.
- To launch Google Now by swiping up from the on-screen home button while in the lockscreen, please select Google Now in Quick Access, or more specifically the activities: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.SearchActivity AND com.google.android.velvet.ui.VelvetActivity.
- This application does not actually launch the applications (yet), it just allows them to be launch (via other methods) over the lockscreen. A good application to do that is DashClock.

I'll give an example. If you select your music application in Quick Access, you don't have to unlock your lockscreen to view that app. If you launch your music app and turn your screen off and on again, normally you'll have to unlock the lockscreen to access your music app, but with QA the music app will be displayed over the lockscreen so it's the first thing you see when you turn your screen on.
Another example with lockscreen widgets. If you have a google now widget on your lockscreen and click on it, normally you'll have to unlock first; with QA google now will be displayed over the lockscreen.
I have the examples make sense.
Ahh know i understand, thx!
Have trouble with this. I select the apps in QA, reboot, and nothing on my lockscreen.
Any suggestions?

If your Downloads page is set to sort by status, it's right there in alphabetical order. If it's sorted by last update, it's the fifth listed. If it's sorted by creation date, it's the first one at the top of the page. And this is ignoring the fact that Xposed has a search function.
Quick Access (v. 1.3) crashes every time I try to launch it.

Sounds like a root issue to me.
FWIW, it's better to just use the reboot option in the power menu anyways. The reboot option in the power menu allows apps and processes to terminate gracefully whereas when an app reboots it just kills all apps and processes.
interesting concept. so is this the same kind of idea as what google maps does then? where if the screen goes off, and you unlock, it will just wake up to maps? and then if you try to back out, it'll request that you do the passcode?
I have recently bought the donation pack for greenify and I have several questions. First of all, I want to say that the app is really fulfilling all my expectations but as someone worried about my battery performance I still have some question, but first I'll say the conditions of my smartphone:
Samsung galaxy s5 with lollipop using greenify 2.5.2 donation pack (non rooted)
Questions:
1) I cannot see apps like chrome to be greenified and I want to have them like that as I see chrome takes up to several hours of internet connection even if I have just used it for some minutes. I wonder this is possible because I suppose this can be made as in other apps like battery killers, chrome can be killed, but I just haven't seen how.
2) Everytime I open greenify there are many "pending" apps that are not hibernated, even if I click in "zzz" button or in the button that says "hibernate and turn off the screen". The only way to deal with these pending apps is to select all of them and click on "zzz". I guess there should be a way to have them automatically hibernated.
3) There is an option in the menu that talks about an automatic manner to do this but I don't see how to activate it. I have it marked the greenify options for locking the screen but there are even more things to set that I don't see where and how. Maybe you can guide me in this better. In case I have this option chosen, pending apps will be automatically closed after some minutes, as it is said? if so, how many minutes?
Thanks in advance!

Have you set Greenify to "on" in SETTINGS>Accessibility?
If you want to manually hibernate, create the shortcut from within Greenify (use the three button icon on the top right). When you use the shortcut, the chosen apps will be hibernated and the screen will be locked afterwards.
In Autohibernate, the time taken for hibernation varies but all apps should be hibernated within 10 minutes max.
For hibernating system apps like Chrome, I think you need root permission.
Yes, the accesibility for Greenify is set to activated. However this options is never enabled within the "experimental settings" menu. It's always set to off. So I have never seen my phone awaking ten minutes after to turn off all pending apps. They remain opened. Any hint?.
Best regards!

When you click the "always off" Automatic Hibernation option in Experimental Features, what happened? It is supposed to be a accessibility setting dialog for you to enable the accessibility service from Greenify for the first time, then Device Admin dialog to enable the other service for the second time, and being checked at last for the third time.
Here I post the sequence I do in screenshots. Evrytime I click in that button it appears the same dialog. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong...but i dont get it working and I have to hibernate manually pending apps

Yes! it was that!. I supposed it was enough by allowing greenify in the security menu. Thanks!
However, I wanted to have it working because I thought it was the only way to have pending apps hibernated because with the button "hibernate and lock" was not hibernating pending apps. After rebooting the phone (thing that I do seldom) it works as I expected. I guess this was the cause why greenify wasn't worked as I expected. Then, for me it is ok if I have that button since it does what I expected to.
Thanks to all!
Recently, I'm unable to auto-hibernate Facebook app. But if I manually long-press the Facebook row and then tap the Z button, the Facebook app can be hibernated. Anyone knows if it's Facebook problem or Greenify issue?

It is neither. Rather it is by design. Any app busy in the background (not merely running), will show up as "working". After it completes its work, the status will change to 'will be hibernated after screen off'. It will then be automatically hibernated once the screen is off.
This is to allow apps to complete their work before being hibernated.
If you don't want Facebook to even work, highlight it and then tap the three dot menu at the top and choose 'ignore the app's state'.

Try what Black_Focus_X said earlier. When Facebook shows up as 'working', highlight it and then tap the 'zzz' at the bottom.

I've now installed what I think is 2.8 beta 3 bit still can't get this to apppear, perhaps because I can't get Facebook to appear in the working state. It does however keep getting started by other apps. I shouldn't have to stop the services manually in developer settings. So how is this accomplished? The whole reason I have Greenify is to stop Facebook and other data stealing from running rampant when I'm not using them.

When it's awoken by another app, it will say "woken by ....." underneath the app name. If you tap on facebook in greenify main screen, then tap the scissors icon in top right of the page, a pop-up will explain then allow you to cut off the wake-up path. Play around with it and you'll find that cutting some wake-up paths is good and cutting others will stop notifications.
I currently have these paths cut-off for facebook:
...notify.MessengerForegroundProvider
...provider.PlatformProviderBase
What wake-up paths have other people cut?
I can't get Google photos to consistently upload. I have settings in the app set to wifi and while charging, but they only upload while the app is open and stop within a minute or two when using a different app or turning the screen off.
It's running the latest global rom, but i think the problem has always been there. Miui seems to kill the app and there's nothing i can do to stop it. In battery options i have set the restrict apps n background to off, and also in developer options the memory setting to off.
Any ideas?
Open Google Photos fully then close it. Click recent apps button, find Google Photos icon, drag down until you see a padlock and release. App won't be killed. Do this for all apps you want to keep alive. Also enable in Auto-start.

thanks for the tips, I'd forgotten to try the lock function and will give that a go. I did think of enabling autostart for it but it didn't appear in the list, i guess because it's a system app.
I'm using Greenify on 4.4. Some apps like Viber or keyboard are not hibernating automatically. We can force them to, with this zzz button in which case they hibernate all the time.
I find it would be the most useful not to use zzz but to have another "Force hibernation shortcut" that would instantly hibernate all listed apps, still allowing those existing 2 shortcuts which don't hibernate all.
I hope this concept is not wrong and that it can be done. If it is, please advise how to use it.

Built-in keyboard in 4.4 doesn't but I don't use it. Huawei phone has this power consumption warning and those 2 are regularly on the list.

Swiftkey never been battery friendly,Unfortunately Currently The only solution is to use that ZZZ button until the developer fixes that,But that's gonna take awhile since he is currently focusing on Android N support.
I feel like this should be do-able in MacroDroid using a widget button and the Send Intent action... I have never tried using that particular action though, and seems I need to get a dump of the intents and look for the right one hehe, sounds like a sober job
Some info on Intent for Tasker.. not familiar with that app but assume is similar to MacroDroid...
