[SCRIPT] KILL android.process.media FOR SAVING BATTERY - Nexus 4 Android Development

Of course, root is required...
I was getting tired about seeing how mediaserver was draining my battery(see attached picture) so I researched a bit and I found how to kill mediaserver process...

Just replace .txt with .sh and execute it with script manager or terminal emulator...
Here is its code:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
killall -9 android.process.media
killall -9 mediaserver
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you have enabled int.d scripts, you can put this script in /system/etc/init.d/...
Or flash this zip: http://d-h.st/2bU (Thanks to acer73 )
the idea is to schedule the execution of this script for example each 1 hour.... Because i think that when we start playing music media server starts again...
however, I must investigate a bit more....
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
to see which processes are running currently: just write "ps" in terminal emulator

Seems to work.

I'm only getting 2% usage on Media Service, my display uses the most (24%). Maybe I'm lucky :S

well that's until you launch any media application like music/video players.

Do you listen a lot of music with your phone???

The script has to be launched at every boot right?

Hi so can I still play media after this? What exactly am I killing. Because it's rapping my battery for 30%. or is that just the usage from actually listening to music? I'm not a newb, but I feel like an explanation of what the service does would help

The issue is not the media server but one or severals apps that run in services and keep it awake.
All the apps that are galleries or media player uses media server to play/show/scan so if you use any of those app mediaserver while be get a high percentage of battery usage and that's normal, the issue is when one of the apps is baddly coded an keeps awake media server even if you are not using the app
So you just need to hunt the ****ty app that makes mediaserver drain your battery

Would power amp be responsible? I don't know, because for the last few days I haven't had any drain from the media server process and just today it started.

I only use power amp as my primary music player. So are u suggesting that I switch players???
The total wake up on the media server is equivalent to how long I listen music to..

Best app killer that makes apps STAY KILLED?

The battery on this phone is the WORST ive ever used!!
Ridiculous!!
I know what apps and settings to use to reduce battery life, i'm not a noob,(screen brightness,bluetooth off,data off,short screen time out,locations off,gps off,disabled push notifications from all apps etc etc) but still!!
For example i used dolphin browser:exited>turned wifi off and put phone in airplane mode.. and after 6 hours DOLPHIN COSUMED 70% of my battery and went from 90% to 20% whilst idle doing nothing over 6 hours!!! Uninstalled that and put chrome back on..
So i NEED a good app killer that makes apps stay killed, tried BOOSTER, kills apps but when you refresh they all come back on mostly!!!!
no im not rooted,heard that makes battery worse .. Also im on 4.0.3 version V10F
Not sure my battery seems fairly well.
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
no problems here. why is a battery worse when something is runnig in the background ?
i use Advanced Task Manager, its configured to kill delayed some apps when the screen goes off.
for blocking autostarts i use the buildin function of LBE Security Manager + Gemini App Manager
Use the autostarts app from playstore

it needs root and the user has not a rooted phone.
I suggest to use the 'maxinum bacground running processes' option.
However It's better to check the downloades apps that may drain battery and delete them.
After doing this,I suggest to use fast reboot pro and activate the option 'kill process when screen off'.
The apps would start all the time... when he likes to close the apps permanently, then he needs root access.otherwise the apps will start again.
Or use better battery stats to analyse the drainer apps and replace with alternate apps. At sample Facebook is an very big battery drainer....

Get root or live with them, sorry.
It's very simple to root your device... and you can do a lot more with your device.

I have to leave the phone with the screen on 50% brightness with facebook with full auto-update over 3g to use about that much battery in 6 hrs
(But then, i did freeze all possible apps from titanium backup and put my cpu on my powersaving plan)
SPOILER ALERT! Lets go really of topic now...
Guess what. I have no wifi internet as my cable modem is broken(new is ordered) i have been browsing and posting here over the 3g connection for 2 hrs now. I am tired. The clock is 23:45 and i have to get up from bed at 6:45 tomorrow to be able to reach school. FML!!!!

If you didn't root you'r phone you can do this Solutions:
1.Go to "settings > apps > all" and disable any programs you can like weather , youtube , google search , etc...
2.go to "settings > developer options > background process limit" and set that to "no background processes" and check show all ANRs
3.install advanced task manager or task killer and set that to auto kill when screen off

Rooting and installing titanium backup pro sounds like the best option. If you have used any of the apps you dont like, you can just freeze them. If you dont care. Uninstall them!
Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
or you can use rom toolbox lite (if it works on lg o4x,I read that it didn't work some weeks ago) wich is free and has lots of tools inside.
another good solution is changing the OOM values and set higher values : doing this you don't have much backgroung running apps so you get more speed on your phone and you'll save some battery juice but you can't do lots of multitasking operation with this solution...

[Q] WiFi problems displaying pictures

hello everyone,
i want to ask a few question about my p880. i dont really know how to explain it the right way. but maybe pictures will help!
whenever i connect to a hot spot, my laptop's hotspot, i can't open any pictures online from my p880. like for example pictures in playstore. let me give you some screens for it :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
but, i can still download apps from the playstore. it's the same when i open facebook or instagram for android or anything with pictures.. i can still see the recent posts, i can post a status updates etc. but no pic!
the problems only occur when im connected to my laptop's wifi, but when i'm on mobile data access. there's no problem at all! here are some pics :
and for your information, when i connect to other wifi hotspot (like my college hotspot), there's no problem at all. can someone help me?
check your firewall settings on laptop
I once had a problem: with antivirus on phone blocking pics.

the download speed is OK. for example, i can download angry birds (which is 30MB++) in about 20 minutes (normal internet speed is just below 100KiloBytes/second),,,
some icons and a few screenshots are nothing compared to that, and even if i wait forever, the pics are still not showing.
and for your info, i can still use my laptop to browse/download anything i want without any problems at all...
My device is much faster on wifi, 30+mb angry bird got downloaded whithin 10mins..along with browsing..no problem with loading pictures..its very smooth.

Sent from my LG-P880 using xda app-developers app
For me( on 3g 700kbyte/s) it takes between 30 and 50 secs to download 30mb. 20 minutes sounds like a speed who is likely to fail in getting pics before you have moved on.
I do however use 10 minutes on the 2g network...

please understand. im not comparing internet speeds right now.
i really know there is a problem, and i dont know how to fix it.
if u said 20 mins sinuds like a speed who is likely to fail, let me tell you, it doesnt work that way. obviously something's wrong here, but not with the speed, the speed does just fine. if speed is the problem, i should get some error (timeout error maybe?), but in my case, it just shows loading picture, but takes forever to load like from the screenshots i provided.
I said speed, because you problem looks like mine when i am in areas with 2g only. The google play will use 15 mins on loading all pics on gp`s first page

i solved the problem by changing the DNS1 to Google's public DNS (8.8.8.8)... it also proves that u r wrong. still u kept on saying that u were right when i clearly said that the problem is not the speed of the internet.

Can anybody confirm this strange behavioiur on 4.2.1?
the steps are copy java into brower window.
Let it play through once
Open a youtube video and let it play a second or two of that
Then exit the video and this is where it should start playing a phantom Harlem Shake. Nothing will shake though.
A reboot fixed it for me.

You could always try Google music app it's free
I'd guess that poweramp just triggered an SD rescan. Try looking in the stock player again.
Naw neither Google play music nor will the stock music app will find the music.. Only power amp.. Wtf??

Show hidden files in the directory the music file is located and check if there is a .nomedia file. If there is, remove it.
I had this once and I don't know that nomedia file got there. Some apps like poweramp scan for music and ignore the nomedia files.
You can show hidden files as an option in es file explorer.

+1 to this.
.nomedia file indicates that mediascanner should skip that specific folder and not scan it for audio & video files.
No luck.. Im going to get this One exchanged because i have over hanging and gaps all over.. Hopefully the new phone wont have an issue with finding the music

Hey MrPINK, what was the outcome of this? Did your replacement fix the issue? I cannot get my music apps to see my local music either and have found one other person searching for a solution...

I used to have that used back when I had the amaze. I uploaded my entire music library to the Google play music library and everything works perfectly. HTC music sync is buggy or something, it's never worked well for me even on older devices.

[Q] Tweaks?

What are the best tweaks for this phone? I know its a noob question to ask but I want to know.
All personal preference. A lot of tweaks are placebo effects. I don't use any seems like a waste of time to me

Unfortunately there is a lot of truth to this statement as I found out the hard way. I will say Fly Mod works only for the fact the ram manager script will manage minfrees effectively. Far as the other tweaks it contains I'd be lying if I said I know for sure they make a difference. Crossbreeder also works to block ads and manage entropy but can't be used with Fly Mod. Use one or the other. I picked Fly Mod because of ram manager and it works much better than Auto Killer. To block ads I use @BSDgeek_Jake Ad Block host file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916098 and Seeder for entropy.
If you want 2D graphics improvement go into developer options in settings, and select force "GPU to handle 2D drawing". In performance settings set I/O to "Row" and check both boxes for memory management. Do not enable Zram.
That's all, nothing more. BTW Script Manager or the Universal Init.d support app must be used to run the scripts or they won't work.
Now that's odd. I just installed seeder to check entropy as I always use crossbreeder. And my entropy is still at over 4000 and my add block still works fine. I am also running fly mod.

See here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=42064289&postcount=212, the Fly Mod dev said some tweaks will conflict with each other, that's why I stopped using both. I looked at the scripts and they do contain some things that are the same such as read ahead settings & so forth.
I guess I missed that. Thanks for the heads up.

Yeah you know I guess you could always try to just use the ram manager script without Fly Mod and see if it will still work or ask @slaid480. He's very good about responding to questions. Another thing about the ram manager script is that it is made especially for devices with 512 of ram like ours, which explains why it works so well on the Exhibit I suppose. I've tried all those other ram scripts/apps and none of them panned out in the end.
Right now with the combo I mentioned above I have optimum performance and I've had this setup now for a couple of weeks with zero problems. BTW when I had Crossbreeder and Fly Mod both going I didn't seem to have any issues but when in doubt I follow the dev's recommendations.
How do you run the scripts in fly?

Flash ram manager first (multitasking), then flash Fly Mod. Just read the OP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273317
After going into Script Manager, then system/etc/init.d and for each file set for "su" and then "boot". Don't bother with the log delete, zipalign data or sqlite optimize scripts as they appear not to work.
To me it doesnt seem like you need any scripts with AOIP because it runs smoothly without it. Let me say SmartGuy, Tim, Camcory, etc. They did an amazing job on that ROM.

Yes i did i tried out their ROM but since battery life was bad ( I wasn't expecting good battery life all 4.2.2 Roms have bad battery life) I had to nandroid back to cm10 because i often play basketball tournaments far away and don't have a charger with me.

It's an app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=os.tools.scriptmanager&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
Hit the "home" button until you navigate to the system files and follow my previous instructions.

In that case your DPI settings are at issue sounds like. It must be set to 240 for apps to download, a few others work but this is the most common one. If you're using Slim or Pac Man change that setting.

Did you reboot after changing it? Also clear cache and data in Play before you reboot.

Would this be correct? And does it automatically execute at each boot up?
