The image shows 6h20m of usage, my Maps app keeps starting on its own and is keeping my phone awake.
Even after I force close and remove all maps related services.
Does anyone have a solution to this that doesn't involve advanced task killer and the likes?
I'm on CM10, with 4.2.1 gapps.

Install 'Android Sytem Info' and go to 'Tasks'. Expand each task and you will see the UID of the task. Your UID will probably be in there somewhere.

First off, tell us what you're using. you might be on CM7 or ICSSGS or Froyo for all we know....?
Second off, if you installed apps via Titanium backup restore or similar, they may well not show. If you installed them normally, more information would be required to help...
Ok I'm on dark night 3 atm but this issue happened me on every Android build
The apps don't show up if restored or if downloaded from market either

Wtf is this shortcut that keeps popping up.

Seems like every day or so I get this random shortcut as well as a notification to download some app of the day. I can't figure out what's making the notification/shortcut. Any ideas of what it can be? I posted a pic and you can see the shortcut in the middle of my home screen.

That must be an app you have downloaded. Some of them have auto run when android loads, and then they 'push' a notification message (ad) , or put a shortcut on your home screen. I used to have an MP3 Downloader app that did that. There is an app in the market that disables the auto run from these apps but I forgot what it was called.
I figured that was it, just don't know what app it might be.

Download Adpush (I think that's what it's called) and it will scan for spyware-ish apps like that and tell you which one is doing it.

[Q] Facebook battery hog?

I've been wondering how people get such good battery life so I just checked what was eating mine and I saw that Facebook is absolutely destroying my battery. Is there a way to make the app more energy-efficient, and does this happen to anyone else?

What about under the Facebook Settings u could change the time under "Refresh interval" to a longer time period or even to Never.
Then on ur phone go to Manage applications/ Facebook then Force stop. Then check the usage several hrs later or the next day...

I did that a few hours ago and it seems to be a bit better. I'll check at the end of the day tomorrow and then see how much battery it uses.

The simplest answer is just to uninstall Facebook. Besides running yet another unneeded service on your phone, the app phones home to Facebook on you.
You gain battery life, and more privacy. Win win in my book.

Help with this pop-up please

This keeps popping up each time I install an app and it's driving me bonkers. Has anyone seen this before or know how to track down the culprit? I can trigger it and provide a logcat if needed, just let me know what level (using catlog) of log you need.
Thanks in advance for any help.
I've been randomly freezing suspects in TiBU like my weather widget to no avail.

its an app that you installed yourself, 100%.
Update
Turns out it was my launcher "L Launcher" from the playstore. It was showing up on Google launcher even when the process was killed, it took freezing in TiBU and a restart to get it to go away.
