Is there an Apps Killer that won't actually KILL the apps you've told it not to?

Using ATM and even if I check an app to not be affected when it cycles to kill, it is still stopped when I use the auto-kill widget. For example, if I'm on a web page before I kill, I'm not there when I bring that browser back up after kill. My mail through Touchdown, also stops checking if I manually kill apps (even though it's included in the "do not kill" list). Is there a better Task Killer that will leave my apps alone if I tell it to?
Using autokill too but it gives significantly less RAM to me that ATM.
taskiller full, it have an ignore list
advanced task killer has an ignore list too and works good for me

+1 for advanced task killer.
Keep in mind, tho, android system is still going to kill whatever it wants, whenever it feels necessary (unless the app in question is "locked in memory").
+1 for TaskKiller, but sometimes it uses up 16% or more of the battery in standby. Its not set to do anything on standby and status bar notification and widget are off.
advanced task manager works for me
You have to set a different ignore list for ATM's autokill, which is what the widget is. That's so you can manually kill more apps than are killed automatically. In ATM, choose menu, preferences, applications, and scroll to the auto-end excluded list. Also, set auto-end frequency to 30 mins. Then you will be amazed at how easily it keeps your phone tidy.
Advanced Task Killer
AutoKiller
Auto Memory
I use Taskpanel, my favorite feature is it autokills programs in the autokill list when the screen shuts off.
You best bet is to put your auto killers on the auto kill list.

If you're really that concerned about memory use something like AutoKiller with aggressive settings.
System Panel seems awesome... I'm using this now.
your best bet is to not use a task killer. It is not needed for android.

Just found System Panel also has a convenient "Kill All" X button. Pretty cool.
I've tried all of them; Taskpanel is the absolute winner, especially at battery saving! It turbos your battery life, in my case about 40%; great/ musthave app!!
Switched to Advanced task manager. It allows itself to get killed
TaskKiller was taking up upto 20% of my standby battery!!!

YUP i have purchased Taskiller and Advanced Task manager...Ran both for many weeks with my G1 and Nexus...... Findings are
Big Difference here....Taskiller eats my battery + notice some kind of memory leak where the ram will always be getting lower and lower over a slow 24 to 48 hours.....
Advanced task killer uses no extra battery ... i just check the program a few times a day and when i get done i hit end all and it kills itself...big plus here for saving MUCHO battery...its the BEEEZ neeezzzz for real =-D ........the biggest reason for having one for me is when i reboot i have so many apps that run that dont need to ..so this works well using it like this, along with Juice defender my battery last sooooooo much longer..... for real beez neez i tell ya
Been using taskpanel for like 3-4 months on my ADP1 and now my N1 so I highly recommend it.

Task killer recommended

Why?
Do you actually have a specific problem that can be solved with a task killer?
Settings>Apps>Manage Apps. There's your task killer.
Or if you're on stock launcher, menu button > manage apps.
Should be all the task killing you need in 2.3
As an alternative you get download Watch Dog that will monitor for you to make sure you don't have rogue apps bogging down your phone. Other then that you can probably do without a task killer.
I use advanced task killer... but you can use the built in Settings>Apps>Manage Apps stated above.
task killers no longer even have permission to kill most processes(after 2.2), they merely take you to the standard running process screen, which makes them even more obsolete.
task killers dont work anymore after 2.2. but the best task manager, by far no contest, is system panel. anything else isnt even close.

Task manager

Am looking to settle down with 1 task manager. So far I've tried out android assistant, android booster, and task panel. What are your opinions on them? What other apps do use as a task manager?

Can the Stock "Task Manager" be Frozen/Removed?

Since there are so many other (and better) task managers out there, the stock app seems a little superfluous. If I freeze it with TiBackup, will it make the phone flip out. I tried it on my old Fascinate and it didn't like it so much. Just wondering if anybody had better results with the Charge?
I doubt you can remove it on any TW based rom without neg side effects.

Yes, I've had it frozen for a few weeks and have had no problems. On Infinity rom.
I think the built in task manager is better than most other task killers. It doesn't kill things needlessly, and also has a long-press home button add-on. Most task killers allow you to stop to many things that are running, and can hurt performance, rather than help it.

Long press is why I thought you shouldn't freeze it..

The stock one is great, I feel the others are way more superfluous and tend to kill too much including services that will automatically restart

Best Task manager?

I was looking for opinions about the "best" Task Manager for ICS.
Hopefully you want to share it
At the moment i'm using ES task manager, not bad, but i was wondering if there where better ones out there?
on ice hold the home button and all your recent windows come up and you can swipe them away to kill the task. This is built into ice. An additional task killer is not reccomended.

I like this screen off killer function.
But I dont think android GB++ need task manager.

SystemPanel App...
i see a few different task killers posted here, though there isn't really a task killer that all of us must have...?
you may take a look or try Active Apps Ads / Task Manager ...
I use system tuner pro, it has a lot more functions than killing apps and uses very little RAM. To use all of it's functions, the device has to be rooted.
I use Advanced Task Killer Pro - works fine
