Had the same problem as you, especially facebook consumes alot of ram doing nothing.
Because facebook is a system app you cant greenify it.
To change facebook to a normal app I used system app mover:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.systemappmover&hl=nl
Havent seen any problem doing this, facebook updates normal and is working fine.
After changing facebook to a normal app you can greenify it .
Hopefully this helps you killing that awfull facebook app

I converted system apps to user apps before else i would not know either!

Actually if you get the Donate version of greenify, it allows you to greenify system apps too, as well as display notifications for the greenified app even if it is hibernated! It is well worth the money!

1. Why uninstall? Never uninstall system apps if not sure it will work. There are apps that can freeze apps, then simply unfreeze if needed. Titanium backup can do this and much more like backup.
2. Don't know, never used launcher pro, xperia launcher are the best Imo
3. Choose yes to use wifi, and use an app to set it to use in eg Europe, Japan or wherever....search in xda for like gps faster fix.
As for 1 there's also a list on the web stating which system apps can be deleted or not. You risk fc and apps mot working properly as they depend on another, easy freezy are also an app to use for freezing apps
Easiest for you would be to install a custom rom, you need clockwork mod recovery and root then. Pm me if you need a guide
Thanks for the sugestion now i have reinstalled messaging app and disable it using root app delete
Now want one more thing to ask
Can i freeze the system app like
Lg home(i am using launcher pro)
Browser (using dolphin)
Hidden menu-use it very rarely
Rsstarter- don't know what is this for !!
Plz reply
Thanks once again

I'd advice you to keep from freezing / uninstalling apps if you don't know what they're for. It's not like you will get a huge performance improvement if you delete these, so I'd let them be.
You can freeze the LG launcher (or uninstall it if you want) as long as you have another launcher installed. This is required, otherwise you're in for disaster.
Thanks for a very quick reply
Just wanted to say after freezing some of the apps that i donf use i got a very good ram space and i feel that my device is now working much faster
Now what about freezing browser and lge hidden menu
And yeah what is rsstarter ??

It's for the Remote Screen service. If you don't use it, you don't need rsstarter. I removed it with no evident side effects.
BTW, thanks to SuperSkill I learned something new -- I didn't understand before what exactly "freezing" meant...
Thanks freezed it successfully..!
and yeah +1 to superskill from mr as well

Facebook app is too heavy it's a FAIL...

use a browser to use facebook. i personally don't like the app because it seems a bit heavy for our device. like the peron above me said, jb+x8=not a lot of available ram.

I can recommend you friendcaster. It is much more lighter, faster and still can sync your contacts. Facebook is to heavy - I'm not using it even on 2.3
Put facebook apk in the rom zip before installing..
Facebook running from /system/app is fast.

system memory, yes. but won't it consume the same amount of ram?

I always strip roms of the unneeded stuff so I have plenty of space.
Eg: My phone only has one ringtone / alert tone.
I remove the default launcher, themes and useless apps.
When I put in facebook I stil have loads of space for other apps in system.
I put all apps that require root access in /system/app (root explorer, titanium backup, setcpu,
Also put some big games that lag if installed to sdcard.
Worth playing about with to get a perfectly running system.
Another example - I can play Jetpack Joyride with music on and it never lags or stutters. Some of my friends can't play the game at all.
Try it yourself - Just remove what you want to from the rom zip and replace at will.
Just don't exceed the size of he original rom zip.
Update fb app to latest, move to system partition & create odex file.
Then wipe dalvik & you should be fine

I dunno what app is doing it. Though Facebook and Google services are the top two drainers.

why the hell would he do that? factory reset would be an absolute last resort.... and i have no idea why the hell you think installing apex would help him?
OP do you have google now enabled?
first thing i would do is disable data and disconnect wifi - make sure it is an app trying to fetch data that is causing the problem, if that turns out to be the case then simply stop all apps from syncing automatically and reenable a few at a time until you capture the problem one.
check out whether your GPS is being used too - google now would use your location and fetch data a lot, my money is on it.

fair enough... but you can be 99.99% sure that it is something you have installed that is causing it.

How do you remove 'system' apps?

I used to use with varying degrees of success TB to freeze or even uninstall stuff.
I 'uninstalled' the other day g+, Facebook, and other similar things, they are back..
Might it be the TB doesn't work on this device?
Thanks

You have to flash a kernel that supports write access to the system partition, or create a flashable zip to remove the systems apps, or.remove.them via adb.
The stock kernel doesnt support write access so any changes you make are reverted on reboot.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Great, thanks!
I think I have heard this one awhile ago, forgot about it.
I would like to keep it close to stock, is there a kernel that, say, only grants the write access to system?

[Q] Google Maps Traffic Widget Updating

Has this happened to anyone else? I used the Google Maps Traffic Widget once but then deleted it from the screen. Now the updater for the traffic widget always seems to start itself. I force stop it and it always comes back after some time. I also try to force stop and clear the cache of Google Maps and also hibernating maps by Greenify that will stop it for a while but again it always comes back after some random amount of time. It is eating up my battery. Anyone know if there is some way to permanently stop this thing from "updating"?
