I always rooted my phones and enabled "automatic hibernation." I am a bit confused, as now I don't root my new device. If I use Nova Launcher, and enable the "double tap feature" to use Greenify's "Hibernate+Lock screen" shortcut, i see it cycle through active apps and closing the windows. I am confused, is it Force Stopping apps? or is it hibernating them? Doesn't cycling through each Active app in turn reduce battery?
I currently have aggressive doze enabled, and was wondering about enabling this shortcut now too, but confused.

i want to run greenify in root mode but NOT automatic hibernation. i want to use the hibernation shortcut, but every time i use the shortcut, it opens the settings of each app to close it. if i have automatic hibernation on and click on the shortcut, it doesnt open this setttings. do i miss something?
This is a feature request.
If I use Spotify or Poweramp, after 10-15 mintues of it playing with the screen off, it will be greenified (even though it is running in the foreground). To get round this I have setup a tasker profile that opens greenify and manually disables autohibernation via run shell (input tap x y) whenever I play music. I am using a S4, GE rom, rooted, Xposed, Greenify boost mode.
I was wondering if it would be possible to have an additional tasker plugin that would enable/disable greenify's autohibernation? Even if the bug above is fixed at some point for my setup, I think it would be a useful feature to have.
Thanks to the developer for such an awesome app!
Does Greenify use "cmd appops set <package_name> RUN_IN_BACKGROUND ignore" to effectively hibernate apps as described here? https://www.xda-developers.com/freeze-app-background-processes-without-root-android-nougat/
Are apps listed as "Running in the background" in Greenify actually running as a service?
No, greenify cannot set RUN_IN_BACKGROUND because it's designed to work without root. Greenify works by killing the application when your screen has been off. Non-root mode clicks "Force close" but Root and Xposed mode will obviously be more efficient.
Hello everybody,
I have Mi Max 32GB+Magisk+greeny donation package
I use my phone for games and wifi +no sims
Greenify is good for battery saving,but It allows apps to sync in background.I need to prevent that.
Please,Can you add this feature ( very deep sleep) that can do the following:
-Blocking all system and third party apps wakelocks and notifications
-Block sync
-Disabling wifi and bluetooth
-Lowest brightness

Unnecessary. Simply place device in 'airplane/flight' mode when not in use. This action can be automated using a variety of tools (eg: Xposed Edge, MacroDroid, Tasker, etc). That said, battery saving using this strategy will be minimal as modern ROMs and hardware conduct background tasks quickly/efficiently during doze maintenance windows.

I turn on airplane mode all the time
Please help me accomplish one of these tweaks:
1-Doze mode:It has maintenance windows that allows apps to sync.How to disable this sync completely?
2-Greenify:It contains an option called "Wakeup Timer Coalescing" that allows apps to sync in specific time instead of app syncing all the time.How to disable this sync completely?
In few words:I need an option to disable apps sync completely,please.

As previously stated in at least two other forums the proposed actions are unnecessary and counterproductive. If you want to disable sync do so in Android settings. Wakeup Timer Coalescing works to your advantage to extend battery endurance. However, if you believe it to be evil (??) simply disable in Greenify settings. If you don't want any form of network activity use airplane mode. Putting your device into a comma ("very deep sleep") is counterproductive as any savings obtained while sleeping will be offset my a burst of activity and sluggish response when manually woken. That's what the power button is for.
There doesn't seem to be a way to turn on high performance mode outside of navigating to battery in the settings and then advanced battery settings. Does anyone know of a way to add a notification switch or even a widget on the home screen to quickly turn it on and off?
Also I have tried my best to eliminate the OS's ability to kill apps running in the background. The one I have issues with the most is PokemonGo. I will switch from one app to another and when going back to PokemonGO it will have killed it and it restarts when going back to it. Loading like I just opened the app for the first time.
Things I have done so far. Disabled battery optimization for the app in the battery settings and turned on "Allow background activity" in the app settings under app management.
I have no task killers installed and the OS is basically stock after a factory reset.
I'm rooted and on DE2118_11_C.16
Have you tried locking the PokemonGo app to prevent it from being suspended?
Also you should check setting under developer mode in APPS section: Susspend execution for cached apps.
I would lower the background process limit from 5 to 3 due to the limited amount of ram on this device and lock any app you want to continue to run if it falls into 4th place.
Also, I would tur off RAM Boost as it does not improve app selection based on my use.
I have it locked yes, still gets closed in the background at random it seems.
RAM Boost was off as well.
The Suspend execution for cashed apps can you explain a bit on how this works? Do I have to cache the app or something in addition for it to work?
I keep the VPN Hotspot, AD Guard, and Pokemon GO locked.

This will "freeze" apps that are cached (past the open app limit) and they will not take any resources. This also will cause them to stop responding like your Pokemon app.
