Hi all
I am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 2 4.3 stock rooted and I am having some issues with greenify. Everytime I start the app to see if it working I get this message: "Auto-hibernation service is stopped" The problem is that I am not using a 3rd-party tool or any other mode as energy saving mode on my note 2 and I still get this message. What should I do to fix it?
thx
This same problem,
S III, rom > http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-archidroid-v2-4-6-power-hands-t2354859
Xposed framework installed
Greenify is device administrator
I have full version
Please read the FAQ in post #2 in the main thread. Both of you may be having root issues.
If I may make a suggestion?
I started getting the same error message (it started right after I paid for the app). After reading "thousands" of pages I think I may have hit on the answer. Greenify is in "boost" mode, that somehow, even though it uses xposed framework, doesn't need root. So I checked supersu and greenify wasn't listed. Then I changed to "root" method and greenified an app, then supersu asked to allow greenify, thereby now having it listed again in supersu.
I then changed it back to "boost" and so far haven't had that error. Coincidently, Greenify seemed to work ok anyway even with that error.,
edit: well that blows, I started to get the error message again, so disregard what I wrote above. Maybe a fix is coming, or I'll live with manually starting auto-hibernation.

No, I check this 3 times ...
colin p > nothing, still this same problem
anyone has ideas, what else, I can do ?
Just to add additional info, this auto-hibernation error only started after I bought the Donation Package. I don't know if it's something to do with the additional options or not. Before I bought the program, auto-hibernation worked fine.
I have a Nexus 4 (rooted with towel-root) and SuperSu and of course the Xposed framework. I uninstalled/re-installed Greenify, as well as the Donation Package and still the error pops up the first time I open Greenify. I then have to manually start auto- hibernation and it works ok after that, at least it "seems" to as everything is under the hibernated section.
After I re-installed, SuperSu asked to allow Greenify root access, so it is properly listed. I would imagine that if a significant few of us have the issue, a future update will address the error problem.
I would like to try to enable Greenify as root mode. Will the message appear?
If it isn't I would then disable the Greenify module in Xposed, then reboot (no soft reboot, just to be sure), enable module, reboot again, and then select boost mode within Greenify. Then make a last reboot. Then inspect the problem.
This is not a definite fix, though in some weird circumstances, it might work

The message appears in either root or boost mode on the first time the program is opened after a boot up.

Tried your suggestion and still get the "auto-hibernation has stopped" error.

Unfortunately, no dice. Still get that error, thanks anyway.
By George...
Well after a lot of screwing around, I think (at least for my circumstances) I "may" of found the answer. Because the error said something like "auto hibernation service is being blocked by 3rd party tool or system settings (ex.stamina mode in sony devi es. autostart manager in MIUI) Please whitelist greenify for automatic hibernation to work", I uninstalled Donkey Guard and Cydia Substrate (they were installed a couple of days before I got the pro version of Greenify, even though there was no problem with them before I got the paid version of Greenify), but still got the error. Ruling out program issues, this time I actually shut down my phone (no reboot or soft reboot) and on opening Greenify, no error. Since I was using the reboot toggle in "Notification Toggle", I tried rebooting through xposed (not soft reboot) and this time, no error. Tried again with Notification toggle and got the error.
So, at least for me, I think I may have solved the issue.....for now.
BTW thanks TechnoSparks as you gave me something to work with.

No problem mate. If it really works for a long time, it might be good to report here as I may take your method as a suggestion to other people facing the same problem as well. :good:

I seem to have this same problem, but I don't think it's easily repeatable, which makes it hard to narrow down a possible cause. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 running Android 4.4.4 but it's not rooted, so the other posts here (which I think all involve root) don't seem to apply in my case. Is there a possible known cause and/or solution for this problem of auto-hibernation stopping on unrooted devices? Thanks for your help!
Can anyone confirm whether it was fixed in 2.4.4 beta 1 or beta 2?

I had not got this message for quite a long time, but after updating to beta 2, the first time I rebooted and opened Greenify, I got this message. Afterwards, for the whole of today, I haven't got it.
Everything is working great for me.
Make sure you have SuperSu (latest)
Also after installing Greenify, set it as a device administrator.
Settings>security>device administrators>select Greenify.
Enable accessability as well (settings>accessibility>Greenify>Enable.
I have these enabled and have no issues.

You are right. After my last post, I found that Greenify was not enabled in Accessibility settings.
After every update, the Accessibility setting has to be re-enabled. Why?

HI Oasis - just to reply that I am still getting Auto-hibernation stopped with Greenify v2.5.1
Basically after a while auto-hibernate just seems to stop. I have all my apps waiting to be hibernated even after a few hours of screen off. I do not get the 3rd party message saying auto-hibernation is stopped. I have Accessibilty on and have given Greenify Device Administration rights.
I will get the 3rd party message if I force close Greenify or if I reboot. In those cases Accessibility will have turned itself off. After turning Accessibility back on, the message disappears but I still have apps waiting to be hibernated after seveal hours of screen-off.
After every reboot, I find that Greenify does not seem to ask SuperSU for root access. Even though I've granted Greenify automatic access,the log files for SuperSU never show Greenify as either being granted or denied rights. I know that Greenify is meant to ask for those rights when the screen is off. I guess it might be another app is locking the device when the screen is off before Greenify can ask for access. I've tried removing Device Admin privileges for other apps and remove PIN unlocks but this does not seem to help.
The only way I have managed to get Greenify running again is to uninstall and reinstall, which seems to be the only way when the screen is on that I can get it to request root access via SuperSU. This does mean I cannot use the Xposed installer options, because I would first need to reinstall Greenify, grant it root access via SuperSU, then enable the XPosed module, then reboot. But after reboot SuperSU access seems to be withdrawn and I can't get it to request root unless I uninstall and reinstall.
I'm sure I'm missing something but I'm not sure what. I am not sure if there is a way of forcing Greenify to request SuperSU access even when the screen is on without having to reinstall.
I am rooted with SuperSU 2.4 and Xposed installer, HTC One on Viper 7.02 ROM, Greenify 2.5.1 with donation package.
EDIT: I've found that I can get Greenify to ask for Root Access through Xposed if I first degreenify Facebook, re-greenify Facebook, launch another app which wakes up Facebook (eg Agoda) and then request Greenify to cut-off the wake-up. Seems to be working.
EDIT2: Alas, still having problems. Usually nothing auto-hibernates after charging the phone. Yesterday it was working fine, today I unplugged, started some apps, closed the phone and went for breakfast. 1.5 hours later the apps were still waiting to hibernate. Am completely lost on what to do next.

I occasionally get this message, generally after an update to Greenify, but just tap on the message and continue on with my day. After exhaustive (I'm rather OCD) research, the general consensus is to forget about it as it is just Greenify's way of letting you know that the auto-hibernation has stopped and needs to be restarted. I have gone without tapping on that message and the service still starts up all by itself.
My advice is to open Greenify after an update (updates have slowed considerably anyway) and just tap on the message and it will be good to go until the next update.
Thanks for the response. I have been tapping on the message when I notice it, but it still seems to appear without updates to Greenify. I've tried checking a little more, though probably not as exhaustively as you did, and I suspect that there's some kind of conflict with Tasker. One of the main things I do with Tasker is alternate between "home" and "work" modes, part of which involves using a screen lock for "work" and turning it off for "home". It seems like when things are working fine at home, I go to work making it switch to work mode, and return home at the end of the day going back into home mode, Greenify complains. Since Greenify only works without a screen lock in non-root mode, I'm guessing this switching may be affecting thing, but I'm not completely sure. I guess I just have to live with it. One thing I've tried doing to mitigate the problem is add a Greenify hibernate action to my Tasker profile for turning mobile data off when the screen goes off. I'm not sure how well it's working, because at work I normally hibernate manually and at home I often don't worry about it, but even if it's not working, I think I get a placebo effect of thinking it's doing *something* so I'm less concerned about checking to see if Greenify has stopped auto-hibernating.
I am just wondering if anyone else is having problems with notifications disappearing upon hibernation with xposed 5.1. I have everything set right in experimental settings, I've been using this so for years so I know how to set it properly☺. Just wondering if I am the only one because I am about to loose my mind!! I've tried everything, installing uninstalling downgrading upgrading, I've spent hours on it, just thought I'd ask before giving up. Running in boost mode with donation package. Thanks

Try the Xposed version of the GB Dev available in the super alpha Xposed thread. Also use beta 3 of Greenify with that. This combination is reported to be working.
Another alternative is to disable deep hibernation in Greenify.

Hi guys. I'm on the same boat.
CM12.1, Greenify 2.6.2b5, xposed super alpha and no notifications kept after auto-hibernate for whatsapp, hangouts and skype.
I've only installed xposed again, and greenify module etc, and notifications only affect Facebook, but just noticed by just noticed that they're snoozing too.
I have the same issue, notifications come in, but then they disappear. I have all the required options checked, using alpha 4 xposed + b5 greenify.
Yes, i have this too. All notifications are gone after re-greenify.

Did you activate the xposed module after b4 installation? When you restored b5 using TiBu, did you choose app, data or app+data? For me, your solution doesn't work.

yes activated after b4 installation. after that i just restored app+data for b5. alternatively try to enable notification access for greenify as well. might have been a step i missed but its still working for me.

weird... i do though. see attached picture. i'm on 5.1.1 slimpop
Beta 6 is up, it doesn't address this issue. I tried reinstalling from scratch, greenify appeared in notification access, but as soon as I activated "Keep notifications" (root non-limited one) under greenify, it disappeared from the notification access. @davtse can you please post a screenshot of your greenify settings?
L.E.: I've pretty much figured it out after reinstalling greenify multiple times and trying with different settings. This is what happens:
- Activating the xposed module makes the "Keep notifications (Limited)" disappear from Greenify options, so I went on and activated it before activating the xposed module and restarting the phone. Also make sure to activate Greenify under notification access option in phone settings.
- Even if "Keep notifications (Limited)" doesn't show anymore, if you managed to activate it before activating the xposed module, it will be kept active.
- If you activate "Keep notifications" (the non-limited one), it will cancel the Limited one, and it won't work, and it also makes Greenify disappear from the notification access menu.
These are my findings.
The good part is that I made it work this way, but the notification light goes away when the app is hibernated with a pending notification. At least, the notification stays.

Glad to know that i am not alone in this I'll try your method and let you know. I don't know if there are many users in our case but in case @oasisfeng you decide to investigate on it please let us know if we can help with some kind of log or anything else. (keeping notifications after hibernation is a major feature i think)
PS : Irrelevant to the problem, but could somebody tell me difference between the root and beast mode in greenify ? (did some research on it but did not see a clear answer)
Edit : Unfortunately that did not go well at 100%, i mean that for example when i got a messenger message, the app can not go to hibernation but for facebook's notifications (e.g. friend request) after hibernation the notification goes away ... Keeping notifications is one of the best features in Greenify IMO so being broken make me :crying:

Are you sure you did exactly this?
- after installing latest version of Greenify, DO NOT REBOOT, go to settings and activate only "Do not remove notifications (Limited)".
- activate "Greenify" in Notification access from phone settings
- activate the xposed module and reboot the phone
- activate "GCM push for greenified apps".

Actually, i did reboot before activating the xposed module
Just to clarify :
- In the third step, i just activate the xposed module (so i shouldn't activate any greenify feature ?) and reboot the phone ?
- In the fourth step, i activate "GCM push for greenified apps" only or among the other features ?
- Do you recommand Deep Hibernation or should i leave it off for now ?
- Concerning greenify mode, what would be more efficient in our case Boost or Root ?
Thanks again and sorry for being a pain in the arse :laugh: :laugh:
I will try again regarding your next answer and let you know how it went
Yes, you only have to activate the module. No, you can activate other features, for example, I have Deep Hibernation enabled (even though it causes some issues with accounts, and making some apps ask to re-login everytime you use them). So, I don't really recommend Deep Hibernation as it is right now, wait for more updates with fixes for it. Instead, you can check Greenify regularly to cut-off wake paths, which gets you close to having deep hibernation enabled.
Boost is the best tehnically, but I am on Root mode (personal choice).

Try one more time without activating other modules, just go by my steps only. If it still doesn't work, try same method with beta 5.

I did try it with beta 3 and it worked but the notification icon is not the original one after hibernating the original app (and its the same custom icon for every app that has a pending notification and goes into hibernation).
I will try it with the beta 5. I hope that op is aware of it
Are we the only ones with this issue :crying:
Hi guys, so i got a new HTC Desire 826 and it has come with DU battery saver, AVG and a few other apps preinstalled and i know usually its not supposed to and when i try to find a way to uninstall, the uninstall icon is grayed out, any help as to how i can get these removed?
Thanks in advance.
You can always disable them as they appear to be built into the system. If you have root you can always google how to remove system apps and go from there.

Just curious, if you disable then restarting the phone doesn't enable them right? But if you force stop them then restarting the phone would enable them? Am i correct or i got it mixed up?

You are correct. Disabling is until either you reenable them or factory reset and force stop is until something wakes them back up(launcher, framework or other app).

Greenify can't auto hibernate apps in Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 running the latest Miui version 9.2.1.0 (details attached in screenshot below).Even after granting all the permissions, Greenify fails to click the force stop button & no apps are hibernated.
This is a major bug and leaves Greenify completely non functional in non rooted phones.
This issue must be fixed ASAP!

Not sure of your expectations or what you are trying to show with the video. Greenify does not remove apps from storage nor immediately reduce their memory footprint (although they may happen over time due to normal LMK behavior). It's singular purpose is to block unwanted background behavior without crushing functionality.
While you may have indeed identified a new 'bug' a single data point (your device) does not necessarily extend to all devices and configs - rooted or otherwise.

Yes brother.I know that Greenify doesn't remove apps from storage but what I'm trying to show here is that when you click on Hibernate Now, Greenify force closes the apps but in this case it fails to do the same.I am not the sole user facing this issue.
This problem has popped up after the latest miui update.
Thanks again

Appreciate the clarification (might want to shorten and/or annotate the video). So you claim the "problem" is related to the latest miui update but then extend the claim to all unrooted phones and demand Greenify "revert" ... to what?
I do see others raising issues with accessibility based functionality and there may indeed be a link. So far none have stated Greenify flat out does not work, only that automatic hibernation doesn't take place the screen is turned off.
Let's see how this plays out as more reports filter in.

Yes!You are correct.In a nutshell with the latest Miui Update (9.2) , Greenify doesn't hibernate the apps after screen lock even after being granted all the required permissions.
This happens in non-rooted devices
Hope that we will find a fix soon
Thanks a lot!

Turn Off MIUI Optimisation
I had same problem on my Mi Max 2 after MIUI update. To solve it just disable MIUI optimization under developer settings and reboot, Greenify will work again as it used to work before MIUI update.

Me and others in MIUI forums had the same problem with only USB debugging turned on, this is what solved it:
Turn on the following option:
USB debugging -Debug mode when USB is connected
Install via USB -Allow installing apps via USB
USB debugging (Security Settings)- Allow granting permissions and simulating input via USB debugging
It's very simple
1 . Turn off miui optimisation under developer settings
2 . Turn on " FORCE ALLOW apps on external "under
developer settings.

Watch this ,
I think this will surely fix your problem.
I'm on xiaomi redmi note 5 pro (india) with miui 10.0.1
0. I'm having the same issue that greenify is not at all able to click the force stop option in the app page in the settings. This renders greenify completely useless in my device, since hibernation isn't working at all. I've been using greenify from last 5 years, and never faced an issue until now.

I really don't understand why you are using Greenify to go to an app and click force stop ... Why not just go directly to the MIUI settings and force stop it there ?
Anyway, on all my 4 Xiaomis, with the latest and greatest MIUI 10 8.9.2 Developer ROM as at this date, Greenify works perfectly.
Apps under Hibernation are as expected when viewed from the MIUI Settings, they are already Force Closed (Force Close button greyed out), with the Uninstall button available (not greyed out).
Under MIUI Settings, apps under Shallow Hibernation are not Force Closed, and clicking on the button Force Close will force close it and the button becomes greyed out, and after that, the Uninstall button will be ungreyed and available. When you go back to Greenify, the previously shallow hibernated app that was force closed is now under the section of the normal hibernation, no longer under shallow hibernation.
All fine on my side, MM and Nougat Xiaomis, I don't know about Oreo. I think Greenify is still needed for Xiaomi with Oreo, since Xiaomi seems to walk a different path than the others.

I have over 200 apps in my phone. So there are a lot of apps that need to be 'greenified'. And I've noticed that if you go into developer settings and disable 'miui optimisations', then greenify works perfectly. But for the rest, even if the app is open in the background and you select the option to hibernate it, the force close button is greyed out and nothing happens

Oh, yes, I forgot, of course I have MIUI OPtimizations disabled, always, less problems for me. All rooted too, with Greenify4Magisk, and some module to allow Play Services to be dozed.
Well, if an app cannot be force closed in the MIUI settings, then it is something else preventing it from being closed, and Greenify cannot override it. Gboard (Google Keyboard if used) I think is an example, if I remember. Only a few, and system apps which I would not touch anyway. I don't greenify important user message apps like Messenger or Whatsapp, though, I also Whitelist them from deep doze, just playing safe.
Excluding system apps, I have only a few user apps, less than 40 for sure. All greenified except a few I don't want greenified. As for system apps,
I froze many of them that I will never use and safe to freeze of course, surely stronger than doze or hibernate.

Ridiculous and counterproductive greenifying a huge app suite. Focus on those that demonstrate bad behaviors; ignore the rest.

Most of the apps will get (force) closed when cleared from recents. Only those with background services need actual "force close" button press. As advised, Greenify might accomplish what you're looking for.

Greenify is completely automated and done in the background. You can set whatever apps you want to close whenever you want.
I don't know of anything else that is as effective as it.
Also I wouldn't really be using these anymore as Android is more than capable of ram management.
Spare ram is wasted ram

Well, that's the risk you take. Most of the killed apps will re-launch themselves automatically, either right away or after a while, when they receive corresponding event/broadcast message. You did not specify why do you want to kill apps in the first place, but generic approach:
1. Greenify (link) - it will kill an app AND prevents automatic restart of an app (doesn't work at 100% though)
2. Disable specific service of an app, so it won't keep restarting (app might be unstable - crash)
3. Uninstall the app and find a better alternative which isn't always running
