hi guys, have anyone tried using android assistant apps to boost or kill applications?
heard that android system does not need any task killer to boost speed and performance, so was wondering whether this apps is considered as 'task killer'?
TIA

I understand that it is normal for Android to run apps in the background. When I first startup my device, I see dozens of apps that are running or have started by themselves.
Could this be causing periodic slowdowns on the device after prolonged use? Is anyone else using any utils/apps to prevent apps from running in the background or tasks managers that they recommend?
I have also read that w/ Android v2.2 (Froyo) you don't need task managers because the OS manages apps on its own, but the discussions are not definitive.
Average users - task killers are bad.
Experienced - task killers might be ok.
Android can manage itself just fine. There's no reason to use a task killer to manage ram. The only reason you should ever need a task killer is if a particular program is causing an issue. In those cases, a reboot would resolve just as easily. At that point, it becomes an issue of comfort and experience.
Some application doing autostart ! When I stopped (from settings/
Application/Running services/Running), they start aggain !
May I stop them with some application or other way?
I have Android 2.3.4. on HTC EVO 3D.
Try taskiller in market.

there are pros and cons for using task killer apps... It's very annoing to have apps always running and eating memory... I use android assistant and I'm very happy with it: it's not just a simple task killer; I use it to kill unnecessary apps at startup and also to kill them every hour...
For Android users, it's our daily routine to use task killers or RAM cleaning apps to kill those unwanted apps, free up more RAM and boost our phones' speed.
However, Android's latest OTA update has disabled some API for task killer/manager apps, which is really confusing and inconvenient for Android users.
So, has Android shut the door to RAM cleaning apps?
With the question in mind, I downloaded 3 most representative RAM cleaning apps with the largest user group on Google Play to find out. Firstly, I tried Clean Master. However, after the update, Clean Master can no longer kill running apps anymore. Then I tried Advanced Task Killer (the top one of "task killer" apps), and it stopped working as well.
Many users have expressed their upsets about not being able to boost their phones like before.
The third one I tried is Advanced Task Manager (the topone of "task manager" apps) developed by INFOLIFE team . It's working both properly and smoothly! It turns out that only one day after Android's latest update, the team released a new version. So now we can still use a third-party app to kill apps and free up RAM. And now this app has become my new favorite. Nowadays, responding speed is the most important quality for all developers because that is we as users value the most.
First, are you sure this belongs here ?
Second, did you just wrote this to talk bad about developers who dont update their apps straight everyday ?
Im not sure you know what you are doing.

Until recently I used to be able to use Android Assistant to kill un-needed apps and so free up memory (and also preserve battery life, help phone run cooler, etc.). But recently -- not sure if it was after the OS update on the Idol 3 (6045I) or an update of Android Assistant itself -- the only process shown under the Processes tab is Android Assistant itself, so there is nothing to kill. The "quick boost" feature, which formerly seemed to close the same bunch of apps I would see listed under "Processes", now also seems to do nothing. I am thinking this is likely something to do with the phone's OS, as an app cleaner built into the 3rd-party launcher I'm using has a similarly changed behavior.
Anyone else observing this, and/or know of a solution that works, and/or know what might have changed with the most recent software update?

Google made some changes with the stagefright patch that prevents apps from getting certain info. Some developers have updated their apps with workarounds.
heyho,
im using latest malysk rk3188 11.5 with microG.
Im still having memory limitations (mostly 200mb free)

Im currently testing some task-killer apps with automatic cronjob to kill all background apps, but none of them works as expectet.
some one knows a app whos running in background an kills specified apps?
try ice box.
hmm, that app sounds like an feature from titanium.
im already have some frozen apps.
im looking for a solution to prevent android being slow while my apps are running.
