Hi all.
Are there anyway to check the CPU use apps information? Like which app use, amount of usage etc? Because I can see there's higher CPU usage in my Galaxy S5 SM-G900F.

Is there an application that allows me to check the history of all running applications on a Samsung Galaxy S3? Specifically, I would like to have a dashboard showing each application's time started, time in foreground, time in background, time ended, CPU usage, data usage.
Thanks
Victor
Greenify is probably one of the best apps for battery saving. It will get the most of your device and it will surely save you tons of battery life.
Greenify is created by the famous Android developers from “XDA developers”. The developers from this website are one of the best in the world and they received amazing critical acclaim from all around the world.
Back to Greenify. It is an app that has the capability to reduce the battery consumption on any Android device. Most of the manifucturers still haven’t found the correct solution for decreasing the battery consumption, most of their solutions work by automatically turning off Wi-Fi, GPS, reducing the brightness, etc. They don’t have meaningful effect on your device’s battery life.
Any Android device can do self-initiative and automatic checks about anything new in any application, especially when you install new apps or update them.
Facebook, EMail, Twitter, Google+, Whatsapp, Tango have processes that are constantly working in the background. On top of that, there are is also a great amount of software already installed by the manufacturer of the device (bloatware), as well as the provider whose services you use. Most of these applications are constantly open, consuming the phone’s resources (CPU, RAM), spending your 3G/4G internet, and they are biggest culprits for excessive daytime consumption of your battery.

The Greenify Donation add on is well worth the few dollars it costs as well. If you get the add on then go into the settings, it makes system app hibernation and deep hibernation options available for use. Greenify is the one app that truly saves battery without freezing or disabling the app. There is no performance loss or app failure when putting apps into hibernation. One thing to keep in mind is that it is regularly getting updated to accommodate new devices and Android updates. Always back up your current version because some updates may not auto hibernate as well as the previous version etc.
If you get Greenify and GSam with the paid add on you will be able to greatly reduce wasted battery drain and quickly identify wakelock services

What do you think about "Hibernation Manager "? What is better?
Hi.
Probably a dumb question especially as I should know this after doing a IT course but is closing apps from the recent apps list a badish thing?
WIth windows I'm used to closing apps to free up RAM for other programs but I've recently found out that android doesn't work like this and it's best to keep the apps in the recents list for faster loading etc. While this makes sense and I have obviously noticed that apps will load faster if they're in the recent apps list but does this not have an effect on cpu or battery life?
Just need some clarification as how how android manages it's RAM compared to windows and whether it has a negative effect on performance if you leave apps in the recents list.
Closing recent apps is no problem at all. If you openend an app (e.g. facebook) and you don't want to use it anymore, you can close it easily to free up your ram. Otherwise they keep in your ram. Of course your recent apps load faster this way, if they aren't to many. The more apps run in background, the more runs your phone slower. In that case, Android closes "big" apps automaticly.
When you're using several apps at the same time, you can switch easily through these recent apps.
If you don't use your phone at the moment, you can just close them.
I think you mean something like task killer apps. These aren't really quite good because Android handles this already very well.

hi.
there are five catagories in which i devide the android device into (baaed on ram and battery)
1-- low end device (less than 756 mb ram)
generally have a 1800 mah battery or less with a max of 1.2 ghz dual core processor. in these devices using 3g with two apps in background drains your battery like hell.
recommoded to kill apps in background.
2-- low average end device (756 mb of ram)
generally have a 2300 mah battery with 1.4 ghz quad core processor. in these devices using 3g with two apps in backgtound will give a 6 to 8 hours battery backup. but if apps goes more than two it starts heating and battery brains a lil faster. but to play a hardcore game you still have to close 3g and all apps forcefulley.
3-- mid end devices (1 or 1.5 gb of ram)
generally have a 3000 mah battery with 1.4 to 1.5 ghz quad core processor. in these devices using 3g with two apps in background will give 10 hours of battery backup. open max of 5 apps in backgroung will not effect performance and battery backup much. to play high end games again have to close all apps.
4-- mid high end devices (2 gb of ram)
generally with 4000 mah battery with 2 ghz octa core processor. in these devices using 3g with two apps in background will give a 10 to 12 hours of battery backup. open as many apps in background will not effect battery life and performance much. to play games not more than two apps should run in backgtound.
5-- high end devices (2.5 to 3 gb of ram)
generally with a 5000 to 6000 mah battery with 2.5 ghz octa core processor. in these devices apps in background do not effect battery life or performance. on 3g gives a 1 to 1.5 days battery backup. play games with no lag.
if this helped hit thanks.
exceptions are n all over the world. exception is law of nature.

Greenify.. Look it up
He is not looking for amy app.
He just wants to understand what to do to get more perfrmance or more free ram on any devices.
Just want to understand.

See android too works with processes and everything, you have foreground apps and background apps and what not..
To speed up, check which app has a service which stays alive all the time, then you travel to Settings>>Apps>>Running
Here see the Ram usage stop processes that you feel u dont need at that time. And then enjot
Thank me if i helped ... ?
Good method

First you need from the Galaxy Store the Samsung App "Good Guardian", which is similar to Good Lock, you later install the submodule "Thermal Guardian".
This app allows you to thermally throttle the system depending on the ambient temperature regardless what the phone is doing. This is very useful if you work or live in hot enviroments where the phone might be expose to high temperatures.

Damp microfiber cloth... works well in dry environments. Cradle in cloth if using phone.
Personally if you can return this device I would do so... all Samsung's need to be optimized for best performance. However the S22U apparantly has a hardware flawed Snapdragon chipset. No fixing that.

EXYNOS or SD? Apologies, if I missed it.

Both but if you lower the throttling temp, performance will drop when the phone gets warm. I raise the temp with this app so the phone has better performance at higher temps as it won't throttle until it reaches a higher temp.

The description says UI 1.5, but not all phones are supported officially.

Sometimes Samsung Region Locks the apps, but there is always Apkmirror, they should work on SD and Exynos but sometimes doesn't work like in some tablets. Yet, they keep adding devices. Definitely this should be build in the system UI.

In Samsung OneUI, the battery usage of an app can be controlled from 3 different Settings (which kind of overlap with their functions):
1. App Info page/ Battery
2. Device Care / Battery
3. Ignore Battery Optimization Setting
By default, the battery is set to 'Optimised' for all apps.
On the App Info page, if Battery is set to Unrestricted, the app will not appear in the list of apps under Never Sleeping Apps in Device Care. But, if an app is added to the Never Sleeping Apps list in Device Care, the battery setting remains at 'Optimised' in the App Info page.
It is not clear which option is better for apps that the user wants running all the time. For example, I use Netguard and want it to remain running without being killed. Although I have not seen Netguard getting killed with either option, I'm still not too clear on which is the better option between these two settings.
Likewise, if Battery is set to Restricted on the app info page, the app will not show up in the list of apps under Deep Sleeping Apps in Device Care. But, if an app is added to the Deep Sleeping Apps list in Device Care, the battery setting automatically changes to 'Restricted' in the App Info page.
The problem with adding apps to Deep Sleeping list is that they are delinked from Google Play Store (and probably blocked from setting alarms, accessing System Events, etc. too), and so would not receive any updates until the app is launched again. So Deep Sleeping Apps setting is likely the more aggressive setting to prevent apps from running in the background.
The other problem with Deep Sleeping list is that any app that is removed from it is automatically added to the Never Sleeping list. So one must remove the app from this list too to bring it back to the default setting.
Finally, we have the Ignore Battery Optimization Setting, where an app added to this list will automatically have it's battery setting changed to 'Unrestricted'.
If I have to list them in the order of most aggressive to most privileged, it would be like this:
1. Deep Sleeping Apps
2. Restricted Battery (without adding to Deep Sleeping list)
3. Never Sleeping Apps
4. Unrestricted Battery
5. Ignore Battery Optimization
Hopefully someone can clarify this.
One is Android thing and the other is Samsung way. If you select restrict you won't find it through Samsung own app usage.
You can choose one of them or both. Samsung is easier to manage.
*EDIT* What the, you have over 600 apps ?!?!

Actually over 1,000 if you count the System Apps. Even my Watch has over 300 apps and watchfaces.
