[Q] Any way to prevent apps to start by themself on i9000 ?

Yea yea I did search for task killers and process managenet. Didnt find what I wanted. I want to prevent apps to launch not to kill them instantly when they launch. Anyone know any app that makes this happen ?

you could freeze the apps with titanium backup, dont know if you need the pro version to do that.
otherwise you could search around for autostart apps, i used one for some time ago to prevent apps from starting at startup, but i dont renember what the app was called!
just search around the market for autostart
Hope this helps you!

thanks i'll check that out

check out Gemini App manager. it does what u need and free.

[Question] Some games run in the background at boot? How to disable them from booting

So apps such as; MP3 Music Download, Pulse, some games etc. They always seem to pop up in my task manager, even though I don't run them. Is there any way to stop them from running in the background and ONLY run when I actually open them?
*Note, they are not widgets, and I have disabled push notifications in the app."

Use autostarts or the autorun function in Gemini app manager!(both require root)

Can you help me, like tell me what I should tick to make it so IT doesn't auto run when I don't want it to? Such as booting, and not even opening the app.

Download Gemini app manager from market!open it --long press on the app--configure autorun--ensure the indicator is green in*boot completed!

Also try to remember that just because they show up in your task manager, doesn't mean they're actively using RAM.

I am not sure you need to freeze it. I had a rooted Arc before, and used Android Assistant to stop apps like this starting up. The real benefit of it is you can block all the listeners' every app and service has. The listeners are what makes it pop back up again when you have killed it (like WiFi sharing does, and &*^% Social Hub & Buddies!).
Used with the start up kill as well, you have a clean fast start, more RAM, and more battery. The price is zilch too, although I recommend buying it just to support it. What's not to like?
Edit: It is autorun that stopped things loading, and listening to events. Android Asst just prevents loading on boot.

Install Titanium Backup or AntTek App Manager and freeze it/them. I've done it myself.

And how to do it with antek application manager

1. You must be rooted of course
2. Open the app and hit the "Apps" tab
3. Search for "Wi-Fi Sharing Manager" and "Wi-Fi Sharing"
4. Tap on it/them and choose "Freeze"
5. Done!

Thank you very much

Is this the only way to get rid of this? I think this is also the case for my bad battery performance as well. So, no way to stop it or kill it without 3rd party software?

Nope, it's a system process, so you'll need root to freeze/delete or do anything about it. If you kill it manually using a task manager the process with start again within seconds.

How long should it take? I'm using Titanium Backup-Pro, been sitting on "freezing Wi-Fi Sharing manager 1.0" for over 5 minutes.

Sorry noob questions, but...
What is the benefit to freeze those apps?? What is its purposes? What would be the cons?

When you freeze an app with Titanium (or some other system app manager), the system doesn't see it anymore. It's still there, but out of action until you defrost it.
It's a useful feature to experiment with temp shutting down of system apps - if you see that something is wrong, you defrost it, and everything's fine.
If you uninstall it, OTOH, if something bad happens, you're stuck.

If you mean "why freeze those particular apps?", then the answer is that if they are not used, they are just wasting battery and RAM by running. This is true of a large number of built-in apps that Samsung, and indeed carriers, put on your phone for you.
These particular ones serve no purpose for 90% of users [sorry, needed for Kies air, disregard], so are best stopped. Even if you do use them, they are best prevented from starting up until you want to use them.

freezing wifi sharing and wifi manager will cause kies air not working. unless you never used kies air and planning to freeze it too then i think it should be ok

I want to ask WHAT THE HELL IS THAT WIFI SHARING APP?! How can it be so badly done... I mean it's killing battery as once launched it never stops. I just can't get it...

And that's why we freeze/remove it If you don't use Kies, then get it over with and kill it (the permanent way)

Fact is, after i froze them (all social hub) wifi sharing came and freezing it didn't change anything, it was still running from boot!

Freeze both wifi sharing and wifi sharing manager.
It will not come back after boot. Tested on 2 S2s and a Note.

I use Autorun manager to disable all the 'listeners' that these apps have (one is for boot). This is in many ways better because I can still use them by actually running them, but they do not start by themselves.

SGN display turn on by itself

Dear friends! I need your kind help in answering the question why in screen lock mode, SGN screen turns for a second and turns off. It is not really a big issue for me, but sometimes when the phone is on the table it annoys already.
I thank you very much for your support!
Yours Fernando

Some app like weather widgets have options to wake phone up for some activities. Check your installed apps for this kind of setting and clear.

It could be an incoming SMS or phone alert, or an alarm...
Do you install any android apps which allow your note to be remotely controlled?

Thank you for responding! Actually no, I do not have any installed apps that remotely control the note. I thought about it, but guess there is no such apps.

Uninstall any suspicious apps you have installed ,or better yet root and install ad free ,air push ,and other ad checking apps on the market.
Then uninstall anything that gives you ads.
It happened yo me on my S2 before ,it's always an app that I installed keeping the phone from entering deep sleep thus causing battery drain.
Now adays I only install what I absolutely need.

No,
do u know how ?

These apps open and suspend until you use them. So in fact it's better because they are ready to go. Otherwise you have to use system resources to load them up every time. I know I suck at explaining it but it's true. Perhaps someone more savvy can find better words.

While krsmqn is correct, there is also Greenify.

true, changing min free values work very well, to kill them faster, but, using a task killer reset apps, using an hinbernation app sleep them, it kill them and put them to "sleep"
in my tweaks, for example, i use minfree to set the minium free memory for each group of apps, so there will be more free ram and more speed
