Ok, so this was a huge problem on the Mediapad X1. Where huawei's memory manager kills apps in the background. Why do we need task killers today Huawei? Please stop
On the Mediapad X1 there were a bunch of apps like Google Hangouts that would get killed even though you tell it not to get killed via "Protected Apps", having your texting app not run in the background is bad as you can imagine. So now I have an X2 and it seems like this Protected App thing actually works better, however I noticed today that the bluetooth services were getting killed in the background as it would not pair with my car until I turned on the screen. Because these are built in services you can't "Protect" them.
Just posting this here so hopefully Huawei can see it and fix it
But seriously, they should just use the memory manager built into android and not try to monkey around with, we don't need task killers any more.

I am on an X2 now and yes, it appears to be working so far (Using SimplyText), I've only had the phone for 2 days however so I am still testing, but this was the main reason I almost didn't buy and X2 because of apps shutting down all the time on my X1 in the background.
What tweaks are normally required?

I have had Textra recommended to me as a work-around for MMS texting glitches. I am used to that now and will try it but if I have problems I will try your app. By tweaks I just meant that so much of what most of you do is not what a "regular" cell phone user would know. I had no idea there were memory manager things I might need to address. (I haven't done that before). That is why I am here. To learn about new things and to be prepared as much as possible for when (at this point it is "if") my 702L gets here!

You have to go into startup manager and check each app, protected apps and trust each application, add it to startup, and in permission manager you have to trust each application. I agree though, I wish this didn't exist as there's no need for it. If you're rooted you can take it out but you'll lose the Do Not Disturb mode as it is baked into it.

I was rooted on the X1 and getting rid of the Power Manager still made stuff die in the background, it was pretty irritating. So far with the X2 it mostly works. As far as I can tell only bluetooth dies (Which I can't add to any of those apps as its a system app)
The X2 is such a better phone than the X1. I hope Huawei keeps on top of bug fixes. With a generic android memory manager this phone would be truly awesome.

I got my X2 today from fashioncoconuts on eBay and everything is good. It even came unlocked. I'm liking these eBay sellers.
Edit: after I did a factory reset it said the bootloader was locked. Now when I use Google Maps it tells me I must update my Google Play Services. When I do my Google Account Disappears and my Play Store doesn't open. I'm beginning to dislike Huawei's implementation of their apps. Blocking certain apps from being installed is totally lame on Huawei's part. Now the waiting game begins for my unlock code. I'm giving them three days. If not both phones are going on eBay and I'm done with Huawei. Rant over.

Yeah. They told me they shipped it out on the 5th and didn't until the 15th. Now I know why. They raised the price too right after I bought it. A lot of these eBay sellers jack the price up way too high. No one should pay more than $399 for it. I'm just glad it came already unlocked. It seems Huawei is no longer sending emails to people with the unlock codes anymore.

Ok, this morning bluetooth connect up fine (I'm on B108)
But I noticed the Lux (screen brightness app) had stopped in the background.
Services shutting down in the background was a huge issue on the X1 and for the most part seems to work on the X2 but it seems some things still get killed in the background once in a while even though they are "Protected Apps"
I'll keep monitoring and see if I notice anything else...

Hi all,
For those familiar with TGPT (http://tomorrowsgaspricetoday.com/), I have written a small app that will check the site for updates and notify you of new prices. It also stores the prices in a DB so you can view the history.
At the moment it only works for Toronto-GTA because I live here and wrote this for me.
This is nothing fancy, it just works.
You can download it here.
Thanks.
cool, a small widget would make this even better
nice! thanks for sharing.

Originally I planned on making a widget. But then after I got the notification going I didn't think there was much point to a widget. Since I don't need it taking real estate on my screen when I already know the price from the notification. And once there is a new price, another notification will be generated.
I will try this out! Thanks!!
good stuffs! thanks!
Great start, just installed. Thanks!

This site you list is different than the one for Toronto. The Toronto site shows only a single price since almost all stations in the area are the same price. But your site shows prices for each location.
What exactly would you want to be notified of?

Might be a problem with lock 2.0? Can you try uninstall lock 2.0 and see if the screen still wakes?
Also, TGPT doesn't do anything every couple minutes. Unless you have the debug to always notify and force update every 5 seconds. Even then I don't purposely wake the screen other than creating a notification and toast.
Yeah if go to origional lock it doesnot wakeup but see tgpt running in task manager which should not the case. I check price, kill the app, it starts again in a min also i get error when restart phone for force close tgpt app
I'm using version.1 is there new version which i can download?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
crimsondr, I gotta say that I've been using this app close to since you released it, and it has been working great for me being a fellow Ontarian. I did come across one MINOR issue/bug that I never have before, only because the stars (and time) aligned it as such.
I had my Desire connected to my PC in Disk Drive mode, thereby disabling access to the SD card. TGPT tried to fire a scheduled update (once every 12 hours, which is great btw), but couldn't read it's DB from the SDcard, and threw up a Force Close error.
While it's not a huge issue because you have to have your phone in Disk Drive mode when TGPT performs an update, I just think it might be better to have the .db file on the Internal Memory of the device, especially as seeing how mine is currently 4kb in size. This should get around the exception when the SD card cannot be accessed, thereby keeping TGPT from throwing FCs.
Just thought you'd like to know since it's something that doesn't happen very often, but still does cause an issue!
Thanks again for your work and effort in dev'ing this quick, informative app!

Make sure you have Force update disabled in the settings. Other than that I don't know what is causing it and I do not have an x10a to test.

You can use sideload wonder machine http://forum.androidcentral.com/android-sideload-wonder-machine/
Or root the phone and load a custom ROM that has non market apps enabled
the sideload wonder machine method is sipmple the only drawback is that the apps wont receive updates like they would from the market, if I'm not mistaken.
Also if I remember correctly if the app is to big for side load wonder machine, you can use adb push. There are always work arounds.

That's why it's such a sweet feeling when you uninstall their application through TiBu........
You can also consider rooting the device. I did mine with no issues at all. It's VERY easy, just time consuming. From start to finish, took me about 35 minutes. I already had EVERYTHING I needed to do this though, including the ROM I wanted.

You want good go to Amazon App store, in the past few days I got a full version of Shazam and then SoundHound. Both have full unlimited use with no expiration, also if you change rom's you can redownload them from your account for as long as you have the account. They give away a full paid app everyday on there.

It *WAS* a paid app (and since it is no longer for sale and the developer has been suspended, it does not qualify as a paid app since you cannot buy it). However, 1 it is no longer available on the Market. 2 I spoke with Google on the phone today about it, and they said it was pulled because the developer has been suspended. This all came about because I just upgraded my epic4g yesterday to the Touch and wanted to re-install it, however it was no longer in the market. Google explained to me what happened, so I did the next best thing, I made an APK from another phone that still had it installed, and transferred it to my Galaxy 2.
Tells me that there is an update in the market, wont let me update so it wont let me use it :/ Really annoyed since I've actually bought this app, I have emailed the dev and he has said that they will be re-releasing with a new icon and description
We have to buy that again and then send an email with our new invoice and our old invoice and we'll be refunded

Yes exactly, some people with an older version of market can still see it, but it won't allow them to update it. Google pulled it. For all others it is not even visible. That is why I posted the APK for the file. It is the most up to date version of the app. An email to the dev wil quickly get you an auto-responded email stating that "he doesn't know why google keeps pulling it, and will release a new one, and that you will have to re-purchase." From who I talked to today at Google, I wouldn't count on that happening so much... but again not relevant since this APK IS the most recent version of the app, and most probably the last time it will ever be seen.
Cott, I reflashed my phone today and spent and hour trying to find this app. Your .apk won't run as it says there's and update. Is there anyway around this?

I cannot say why that is happening. I have not had that problem, I installed it today on my Sprint Epic 4G (2.3), my new Galaxy II Touch that I got yesterday, and my Samsung Galaxy tab 10.1, including a friends T-MO mytouch. I am not running any custom ROM's on any of my devices, I simply have them rooted so that I can get rid of bloatware, freeze the stupid crap, and not pay $29.99 a month for wireless tether.... I am not a dev......perhaps a dev with the time can look into the problem you are having and figure out a work-around? Any devs out there?

Going to give this a try. Still running it on my Nexus S with no problems so far. Started with fresh clean stock ROM then rooted my E3d and couldnt find it in the market (now I know why). I'm using Antek right now (which is pretty good as well as another member stated) on my E3D.

Yes Titanium Pro is a must have app for rooted users, no question about it. However for the purpose of freezing apps, I find and many others have found as well that Bloat Freezer does it much better, and is able to freeze apps that Titanium can't. (Titanium will "freeze" certain apps, but then upon reboot, they are no longer frozen. (again that is with certain apps, and seems to be more or less of a problem based on what phone you are using and what ROM. Bloat Freezer does work better for the purpose off app freezing. Period. An added bonus of Bloat Freezer is that it color codes apps of what it thinks are completely safe to freeze, which ones you DO NOT want to freeze, and ones that it does not recommend freezing, which is very valuable for alot of "new to rooting" people we have floating around XDA, and therefore has the potential to prevent alot of un-needed posts and fights and other BS that goes on on XDA, therefore is benificial to our community. I have played with antek app manager as another person pointed out. I do find it to be a usefull app and has its purposes for sure. It's a must have as far as I am concerned, although lately I have been leaning more on "Gemini app manager". You should check that one out as well. Again though, for freezing bloat, nothing is as effective or safe, or "newb friendly" as Bloat Freezer. Oh, and to the other person pointing out that it is (was) only $1, good point, titanium pro is currently going for $6.96.

When I said Titanium was a must have regardless for root users, I should of said that I meant the PRO version of course. Thats why I posted this APK, because I know I loved it and I knew there must have been thousands of others that did as well, and since it is no longer available I figured this is one way I can contribute back to the XDA community.
I had purchased this app and wasn't able to re-download it when I upgraded from my DX to my Bionic.
I just installed the APK you posted and whenever I launch the app, it tells me there's a new version and the choices are Update or Exit. If I choose update it takes me to the market where it can't find the app. If I choose Exit, it just exits out of the app so it can't be used.
Hitting the back button on the phone dismisses the pop-up, but it still doesn't list any of the apps, and then selecting Refresh just bring the pop-up back.
Looks like I'm screwed.

This is still considered warez as far as I'm concerned, so I'm closing the thread.
I don't want to get into a whole debate about root but I am coming from the G3 and previously had the G2. I had both of these rooted with excellent Cloudy stock Roms.
It is my goal to live without root on this phone. It seems to run great, has enough ram and battery to handle lost background apps with little to almost zero lag. I am just kinda tired of the TWRP, ROOT, TB, Flashing lifestyle... Lol. Been doin it since the HD2.
However I did not discover until yesterday while using the phone unrooted that Dual Window is only limited to a handful of apps. I guess with the rooted Roms the mod for other apps was already in place so I never noticed. I honestly gotta say that's pretty terrible. I don't understand the thought process behind why LG would limit such a strong multitasking feature. I personally used it to balance my checkbook beside my bank app. SUPER EASY! Now this kind of sucks. It might be enough to make me root it. I am trying the ad block thing I found in another post but this dual window thing is a FAIL without root IMHO.
Otherwise this is a bad ass phone. I am loving it.

Hooooly crap that's alot of work to have something as simple as dual window support. What happens when the app updates? Does that change anything?
Again this just goes back to manufacturers just taking care of their customer base. This should be a non-issue.... Maybe I'll fool around with this at some point but honestly just rooting will probably be easier and provide more overall benefits once it is accomplished (which I would imagine would be sooner rather than later.) I'm always willing to donate for developers hard work. Definitely worth it.
Thanks for sharing this friend!
It's not as bad as it looks tbh. Once you become familiar it's a fairly quick process.

I've used this on a few apps and it works great. Took a little bit of time to figure it out the first app (I have zero experience with this type of thing), but after that it went pretty quick.
I just verified it with some apps I edited for my G3 that it works fine on the fancy new V10.

Maybe I will give it a try. It seems intimidating but perhaps it's not. What happens if an app updates via the Play store? Does it overwrite your changes?

Hah, I've got no idea honestly. That reddit thread that was posted isn't too old; I haven't had any of the apps I messed with updated yet.
Hi,everybody .I try to sign FM Cube to dual window and it is work great but when I try to do the same with Waze it show me error when I try to build apk back.
Can anybody help me with that ? And also I did a Google Map but can not install on my phone because the original one is a system app.
Like the title says, is there a PD out there that works on the s22? I need to debloat this phone and the latest version of Package disabler pro doesn't seem to work on the S22. It just keeps telling you to keep clicking until it fails and has you download the knox check which then makes you keep clicking forever.
Try this...

Yeah that's what I've have (3 device cloud copy), it doesn't work on the S22 ultra, at least it didn't for me. It works on my note 9, the older a8 tablet running 11 and the galaxy s8 that i traded in, but all it does on the s22u is keep telling me click and then download and install the knox apk then go back in and keep clicking forever.
It's a knox issue, and i think the guy needs to update something in it.

Try emailing them... they do respond.
Use adb edit. Running a Samsung without bloat control isn't a pretty picture.

Already did email him. Asked him to see what's up and take the s8 off my account since I traded it in.
Adb appcontrol looks promising, that was recommended by butchieboy
do you have a link to adb edit so i can check that out too?

Never had to use it, sorry.
Part of my massive feedback to Samsung has been for a native package disable on their phones. Not happy with Samsung... they've been disappointing lately.
Use adb app control. It's a PC app but it's free and amazing. You'll never have to waste money on that fleecing app package disabled ever again.
He fixed package disabler pro. It works now
Fixed for now. I've heard the issues on that app for years and people having to pay for it multiple times or releasing a new app for new phones. Shady at best.

yup, the guy wants you to pay for it every year, but at least he had it fixed within hours.
he also said if it shows up in the play store (google removes it a lot) and you buy it there you're basically screwed for support cause he'll make you rebuy it off his website no matter how long you've owned it.
but it works and you dont have to be a device admin, and once you get it working it stays working.
Not advocating for him, just saying the few things that can be compliments for how he operates
Yeah I appreciate he does support his app. He's been around for a long time and that does say something. At least we have options and we can be happy with what we choose to use. The freedom of android
Anybody try App Freezer yet? Just got my phone and looking to set it up. App Freezer has worked flawlessly on my Note 10+ since day 1.
I haven't tried it or heard of it but I like looking at apps recommended by other users so I'll check it out.
I took the plunge with App Freezer. Even with ADB side loading, install was quick. If you're gonna do it, it's best to do it first, because you have to delete all accounts to set it up. It's worked great on my Note 10+, my Tab S6, and now seems to be running fine on the S22 Ultra.

Installed it to today. Tried every which way to get it to work on my LG G7 but wouldnt recognize my phone.
I normally use adb without it so I followed this guide and then installed the app. Not sure it'll help but worth a shot.
Installing adb and fastboot on Windows PC
Another thumbs up for adb app control. I downloaded it earlier this morning and prefer it to paying for PDP or CCSWE.
Alliance Shield X works great for me from the Play Store. It's free!

Yeah it's shady. I paid for it twice and then figured out what he was doing. If he puts it on the store and it gets taken off the store and he gets it put back on you have to buy it again or it won't work when you download to use it. If you get a new phone then it won't work and you have to buy it again. If you go to sleep at night and wake up the next morning then it won't work and you have to buy it again lol. I have two package disabler apps in my apps list and both of them are obsolete.
