It is not needed. It doesn't help anything. Go ahead and uninstall it

Do a search about task killers and Android. They usually do more harm than good. Instead use Auto Killer or Auto Memory Manager. Set it to optimum and enjoy.

[Q] Disable autostart of applications

Can I disable the auto-start of applications?
I know that I can use a task killer...but I would like not to have them there in the 1st place.
For me it would seem normal ask me if I need them to be there.

Anyone figured this out? I hate when market, youtube, ect start on startup.

You need to root and then the world is youre oyster

Yes, i have rooted my phone, question how to disable starup programs. I didnot find anything from search. I cann kill em after but it would be nice that they would not start at all.

There are some programs that give to you this ability: startup manager, autostarts (I'm using this one)...

More stable with this thing ! Please try !

Hi every one, I have recommend for you to have more stable than when run android. If you often use any Task Manager app, please don't use option kill all app or auto kill app. It will make more eror, stop app, keypad die ! I don't use any Task Manager and it run more stable than other people !
Why? because don't like windows or IOS, android don't have option to stop app exactly! I develop game in android and find all document but never see how to stop app. just have option to close app but it still run in background ! system will auto free it when needed! have you ever see any button like "close" in all app from google?
So, please try if you want use task manager, just manual kill app or game you don't want use, and don't kill any system app ! Better thing is don't use task manager like me ! maybe you will not see any eror again and report here if it work for you ! Thanks all !

I never use any auto kill apps and i only ever experience key freezes, never SOD's.
So your quite right i think

I think you're right

I don`t agree. If you wish to kill any application you can allways go to settings manage applications and to force close when you select it from the menu

Yes, you can force close, but only ONE app! if you choo option kill all or auto kill ... it will kill all app, include system app ..., then it can have eror!

what should I use instead a task manger

App be running in the background n I thought task manger was the best.
Samsung captivate
glitch kernel
cyanogenmod 7 #89
OC and UV

Have you looked in settings/Applications/ and looked at running services ? that will show others apps running you may want to close.

Advanced Task Killer is where it's at. (I'd give you a market link, but I'm lazy)

YAY!!!! more misinformation about task handling in Android!!!! we needed that!

[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.
