I'm not sure if everybody uses this, but Autostarts is one of my favorite root apps and I recommend it to all of my friends who have rooted. I don't see too many people talking about it anymore so I figured I would remind everyone of this awesome app. It allows you to prevent any apps from running on their own. After using Titanium Backup to debloat my ROM, I then open up Autostarts and run down the list and disable any apps that I don't want to startup without my say so. It does wonders for freeing up RAM. I did this on my Epic 4G Touch and never needed to flash a single custom ROM because I was able to get the stock ROM running flawlessly. It is an invaluable tool to me and I recommend it highly.

My bad, I just fixed it.
I know this is old post, but I bought this app a long time ago also. It's a pretty powerful app and you can modify every reason for an app to start.
I vote to move this to the App section.

Is it able to disable Google Play from starting up at boot? I´ve disabled the event I consider to be associated with Google Play (with Autostarts), but still the app launches by itself at every reboot...

no, it will not. more importantly, google maps is a battery hog, and a privacy killer, and it is also unable to be killed. not by gemini app manager, nor in conjunction with autostarts. google maps will report everywhere you go, and there is nothing you can do about it.
if only someone (windows maybe?) would come out with a nifty phone and declare "Hey we won't sell your soul!" i would so be on board. HTC is slowly drowning themselves, so i am finally, after 6 years, ready to move on to a new brand, and wouldn't mind leaving google behind.

Thanks man.:good:
If your interested I managed to disable Maps from always being on the background on my system . What I did? Used Titanium Backup (Pro edition) to convert it to a user app (because it needs to be so, for the next step). After, used a free app called Greenify (you may find it on the Play Store), to "hibernate" Maps at boot time. Result: No more Google Maps on the background . This app is great! You should give it a try. Maybe you may keep your HTC a few more years using it
Unfortunatly trying the same for Google Play messes with its app update functions... that is why I ask.
Hope it helps you on the Maps issue.
Any other ideas anyone?
i use gemini app manager itll stop it all but also remember that certain actions also stop it from updating the market so be careful which autostart functions u stop: although there are more than just at boot for most apps

Mine is already a user app..?
imma reinstall autostarts see if it has stopped working correctly. i know many instances can trigger apps so you can't just disable on startup for it not to run. but i remember disabling maps in like 3-4 places and it stopped starting unless i told it to start.
I have maps disabled completely in both autostarts and Gemini app manager. And maps is still my #1 battery drain. often my phone displays the gps signal when I wake it up, even though I haven't used maps in days.

You may use both in conjunction. Hell, I´m using Autostarts, Autorun Manager (for its simplicity) and Greenify. You just have to know what apps/events are disabled/enabled in them.
Greenify is a little diferent in the way that it hibernats apps when they are not being used/when with the screen off. It works of boot and is really pretty helpfull on those "stubburn" apps that do wish to always remain in the background. With Greenify on they are gone! For good .
Check it on Play Store for more info. Older versions seemed to have some issues with superuser access, with the new one, that seems fixed. It is a great app IMO, saves LOTS of battery and enables a little more ram available for things that do matter (good specially for phones with low RAM memory chips). In the case of your phone you will mainly notice an improvement in battery life, since RAM seems not an issue.
You should try it out

Maps, as you said, has got several instances and events triggered for the most crazy things (at least in my book - since I do not need many of them), and that was why it still kept restarting even after all events disabled (there should be hidden ones related to other apps still operating in a complex interconection). At least that is how I imagine it was working. Greenify manages to hibernate it altogether (Titanium style), with the advantage of being "quicker" "unhibernating" it when needed. No complains for me so far
Glad it helped. It seems an excelent app!
See you:good:
Re: Greenify
Just bought titanium backup pro to use in conjunction with Greenify. $6 to stop maps and facebook from eating half of my battery. Totally worth it IMO.
Kudos to whoever suggested the app first.

Free basic blocking, $10 ad blocking, $5 malware blocking.
Update: seems the paid features will not work now that it is not part of Play. To boot, it stops Ad Block Plus ,WiFi only, from working. So the free mode is not so good for no root users.
Installs and runs, I allowed basic.
Works in mobile data & WiFi!

Ah ok I'm rooting running adaway. Thanks for posting the app I love the concept but a huge decrease in battery life with it. My phone was always warm in my pocket too, hopefully there will be some updates!
I must be getting too old. But can't quite figure out what this app does.

Hello peeps,

"
Just 3 days ago i bought my S8 comming from iPhone 7 Plus ( imagine the worry i had ) because of the phone sive/screen .
the 7 plus had a great battery which never disappointes you and yea i thought the s8 is the same.
first day i noticed the drain and i thought it is because the app downloading and so on .
some personal searching and tries here it is
"
To The Solution ( 2 ways to be done ) .
1 : Apps Location permission
Battery drains because of the GPS , any app with the permission could wake the gps and use it without using the app .
1- Go to settings -> Apps -> Press thr " 3 dots " ••• -> App permission
2- here is the treasure *huehue*
Go to " Location "
• Uncheck everything ( if you wanna keep some your choice but to see if the drain is stopped )
EXCEPT !
• √ Google play services ( sadly a MUST )
• √ Google ( for google assistant )
TA Daaaaa ! Done :laugh:

2 : from Apps -> Google play services -> Storage -> Manage storage -> Clear All Data
√ nothing will be deleted nor changed from your google account

tell me the your results
Doing step 2 would further add to your woes as everytime you clean it, it would again build up the cache resulting in further drain. I agree with step 1 and you can further disallow it for few system apps like Samsung Connect, Bixby voice etc. Populate the system apps from the 3 dot menu in app permissions. Those are the real suckers.

It's also takes the battery/phone about 3-5 days to learn your usage pattern, so at first battery life doesn't seem that great.
Another HUGE battery drain on the snapdragon models is IQ services, you will need BK package disabler to disable app services.
Two bad drains are wifi always scanning and search for near by devices, those can both be turned off in settings/connections.

What are the process names? Can't seem to find it
Surprised no one has mentioned Facebook and Facebook Messenger. Both of them use a ton of battery but it's hidden from usage monitors.
Uninstaller both of them and install Facebook Lite and Messenger Lite.
Even those are resource hogs, though, so you can use BK Package Disabler to disable many of their processes (I believe it's 16 and 9 processes respectively) and boom, low resource Facebook apps.

It's in Android system app/services/iqservice tick to off, this is using BK package disabler only, I don't think the other package disablers have this option to shut off specific services within the app like BK disabler does.

I just upgraded to Oreo and am wondering what the Launch setting under the Battery section does? With Nougat, I really liked the feature to close apps when the screen turned off. I am not sure what this Launch setting does??
It's clearly written there. It manages, whenever an app can launch, or not based on patterns.

Hi,
How did you configure the settings. Since the update to Oreo I am only getting 3 hours of SOT which is very disappointing.
In general, if I do not want an app to be running in the background or starting on its own i will choose to m it manually an deselect all options?
How do you handle apps that you do want to receive notifications from?
Thank you.
Go to settings -- launch
You can either let the system decide which way is more power saving (manage all automatically) or you can go at the top in setting - launch, it says manage batch manually.
For example
Facebook : auto launch : secondary launch : background launch
If you check auto launch,the Facebook app will run in background as soon as you turn on you system. If you don't check the box, the app will remain stop unless you tap on it
If you check secondary launch which allows other app to wake up Facebook app, if you don't check the box the app will not wake up by other app
If you check background launch, you allow the app to run in the background. If you don't check the box the app will stop after several minutes after you close it( save your battery).

Sorry just extra information, if you still feel the battery drains to quickly, do check at Battery Usage Click Facebook and Terminate App.
This based on my experiment as previous build (360) was okay, but this one (362) a battery drains so noticeable.
I notice that even if you set FB restricted from running background process, it's still running.
Thus, drains your battery much quicker.
As it consume about 138.46 mah which is the highest among all of my app.
Second highest is instagram (114.84 mah)
Other app was below 50.00 mah.
After i terminate it, i can easily reach 2 day ++ (wifi, data but not heavy), 1 day ++ (moderate use : fb, surfing, call, etc), 25 hours ++(heavy : gaming, movies, fb, youtube non-stop)
Only certain apps I manage it as Automatically, others by Manually (uncheck all box).
You can see in the picture attached.
Hope its help you !

After you close the screen, it'll automatically stop or terminate any background apps. But sometimes depends on the app. Like whatsapp, joox or some of my apps only need to clear the recent apps. Try and experiment. But for fb as i said earlier, after you use it please do terminate it manually.

I use the app Fella for facebook. It work very well and there are many configuration options.
The worst thing it does is prevent internet access to your applications in the background. Even using the Android JobScheduler API, with "SetRequiredNetworkType", and "Enable background data" set for your app, you'll still get connection errors from any code that is run from your scheduled job if the app is not presently in the foreground. It's a horrible feature for app developers to deal with, ugh.

You can't. And even showing a screen prompting or showing users how to do it, can get your app banned by Google Play.
EDIT: My response here was short-sited and premature. You can do something about this, as long as your app meets certain criteria.

It looks like you can do it, as long as your app meets an acceptable use case for battery optimization white-listing. If you can tick that box, you can fire an intent REQUEST_IGNORE_BATTERY_OPTIMIZATION to directly prompt the user to add your app to the whitelist.

Check again after a few days.... Btfery drain is always worse after a factory reset or on a new phone as Android learns your usage Patterns
I have a 10+ running on Pie.
It took me months to sort out excessive battery usage. If your phone is running warm at idle you need to track down the causes. I use PD MDM package blocker which helps a lot if used wisely. A lot of junk that needs to be disable in settins too. My nominal battery usage screen off, plain jane AOD on is 1% an hour. Surfing the web, watching a vid is about 10% an hour. Your device probably uses more though even when optimized not sure though.
In Samsung Device Care, use factory load if it is the one with 360 degrees on it. Do not update.
•In Device Care punch Optimize for power/screen setting.
•Toggle on fast charging and -nothing- else. (see image)
You can then package block this app.
•This configuration will also keep power management from unwantedly killing apps in use like Poweramp. All other unused apps should go into standby mode when not in use or screen off... without power management options being toggled!
Use no 3rd party power management and for now don't toggle any apps to sleep.
•In Developer options>stand by apps, all buckets should show as active, if not unwanted power management is active.
Let the base Google default settings handle power management. Enabling advanced power management appears to cause conflicts leading to excessive CPU/battery usage.
•Any cloud app will steal power and bandwidth, Google Backup Transport and Goggle Services Framework are prime offenders.
•Disable all carrier, Samsung, Google etc diagnostic feedback as well as carrier updates and Playstore.
Enable as needed.
•Use Samsung Gallaxy Labs Battery Tracker to help track usage.
Framework will still show usage with AOD is active about 1% @ hour when blocked. It should be well below 1% when phone is active.
I've posted more detailed info in the 10+ forum.
Each phone configuration varies so try these suggestions, what works for me may or may not work for you.
Get a package disabler and start locking it down... play with it.

I use PD MDM package blocker which helps a lot if used wisely. A lot of junk that needs to be disable in settins too. My nominal battery usage screen off, plain jane AOD on is 1% an hour. Surfing the web, watching a vid is about 10% an hour. Your device probably uses more though even when optimized not sure though...

Thanks for sharing your tips here.
Which app are you referring to? Is it Package Disabler Pro? Searching "PD MDM" brings up a whole load of different PD apps on the Play Store.

You're welcome.
They aren't on Playstore. You have to look a little or know about them.
Been using it for at least 3 years probably longer. Very stable. A great tool for non-rooted Samsungs.

Stopped using that paid one from Police-whatever because their lame app stopped being able to block AT&T updates.

Thanks for link. It's weird though, as the app made by Policedeveloper on the Play Store has the same UI and same name, they also use identical screenshots with an old Samsung phone model! I wonder if they are the same developer or one has copied the other.
I was using the one on the Play Store but it did break after upgrading to Android 10. I am considering buying the app you recommend but don't want to get burned again. I know its not a lot of money but I don't want to be sold a lemon!

Don't know who stole what but know I'll never use anything from Policedeveloper again. Trashware.
Didn't appreciate their lame attitude when I emailed them either.
I've used PD MDM on Kitkat and Pie. Lol, no plans to jam Q into my 10+ though; it's running stable and fast.
I was apprehensive at first too, but they have consistently given me a quality app.
If they say it's compatible you should be good to go.

In Google Play Services>app permissions, disable all to get Google Transport Framework from using excessive battery. Google Transport Framework and Google Transport are package blocked as well. The former is the last step to shut these power sucking background apks down. So far I haven't lost any functionality I use.
Took me a year to track all of these down. Ha!
Should be 94 blocked apks, may have lost some in the confusion of manipulating the list.
Some of the blocked apks I've enabled the widget toogle to turn them off/on like Playstore.
•I'm running a 10+ on Pie... no idea how the Fold on Q will respond to this list but probably similarly.
•This list is customized for my set up and circumstances; each user's needs are different.
Best practice is to formulate your own list... the hard way. That way you'll learn what the apks you're blocking do and how the apks interact/their dependencies.
