No Taskkiller is the best taskkiller. If u use this programms ur battery drains faster because most of running apps starting again after killing.. Taskkiller were only usefull at Android 2.2 also Froyo Androis version with GB and ICS there are useless. XD

I did not know it....So basically it closes it self when i press home?(i didn't think so..)In my oppinion it stays open and eating a lot of memory which is causing battery drain....Of course some apps are have to open all time but you can edit a non-app-kill list where you can put those apps.
Correct me if I'm wrong.
Thanks for your reply anyway
I think the best app killer for ICS is an app where u can choose what app have to run automatically and what not have to do.
With GB I used gemini app manager, but I don't try it on ICS yet.
For when an app is running and u would force close it u can use the stock ICS app killer simply holding central button.

App killer is by defintion of little value, it doesn`t do much and is imo quite useless. I have never used one because the benefits are marginal.

Prevent Facebook App from starting services

Hi,
I'm using a device with 512mb RAM.
Now facebook uses up to 80mb, and notifications, and messages aren't even shown properly, actually only if you go into the app.
Now my question is - is there any way exept android manifest changes to prevent any facebook services?
It lowers the performance a lot, and is really on of the baddest apps ever seen.
Thanks

Sure, thanks.
But I was also looking for an implementation into ROMs, to prevent a specific service to start.
Any RD?

Experia ZU Task Killer

Guys im just curious if you use Task killer for your ZU device?
its like none of u here discuss about using an application to kill running applications that can slow down our device
due to the shortage of RAM.
Thanks

Task killers actually mess up android, it's designed to cache as many programs as possible for fast app switching. Ive never had any problems with memory shortage on ZU ever.
The reason it's not discussed is because no one uses one.

I wasn't aware that the OS optimizes the apps. I've always used GO Task Manager EX and put a widget on my home screen to kill everything.

It is not optimizing the apps but rather optimizing the memory usage.
