Anything you want but system apps.
Moto X
I greenify Google Play Music, Amazon Appstore, and Maps.
Maps ****ing KILLS my battery. After I greenified maps, then Google+ app just replaced it as far as battery usage goes. I couldn't greenify it with the free version so I just disabled it. Now I get 20+ hours of battery.

Did Greenify ask for root permissions? Sometimes it doesn't so it has no way of hibernating the apps and that error is caused

Yep, root permissions granted. Really don't know why they don't sleep, all was OK when using it on my Note II.

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!

Install xposed framework and wanam xposed. It will give you so much control over customization and features.

I second this notion, also while you have Xposed grad "App Settings" if you're like me, and wondering why you see just as much content in most apps on this HUGE screen as you do on any 4.5-5in phone.
Root Explorer is a very useful app

What DPI are you using in App Setttings?
Squuiid said:
Thank you both for your replies, appreciate your help!
You're right, all seems fine now that I soft reset via software.
Does anybody know the technicalities of why this happens?
What is the difference between using the pen to reset and using software.
What exactly is different?
(I'm now using XCPUScalar to soft reset BTW)

I've noticed that a couple of apps (TuneIn in particular) once I've run them show in the list of running apps long after I've stopped using the app. Does anyone have a recommendation for a task killer that I can set up to just kill one or two apps? I know a lot of folks don't like task killers or think they are needed, but I can't think of another way to get rid of these apps.
If you're rooted, greenify app. Its perfect for such things.

gs. I am loving my Moto X running 4.4.2 except that recently the YouTube app has started causing huge drops in battery life. This is the latest app for YouTube as well. I've been force closing it to try and curb the drain, but it's still pretty annoying. I've also cleared data and reinstalled updates to the app to no effect. Advice?
Question... Out of that time, how long was you using it? Lol

I'm having the same problem with the app keeping the device awake. Are you having this problem while connected to Wi-Fi? If so, do you have a Chromecast active on your Wi-Fi network?

On and off Wi-Fi and yes to the Chromecast.
Try unplugging all your Chromecast active on your Wi-Fi network and use your device normally after a full charge.
I suspect Chromecast keeps the YouTube app running in the background when you're done casting videos. I have no evidence though.

It seems to continue even after I've left the house for the day but I'll try just disabling Wi-Fi tomorrow and see if anything changes. Interesting theory.
Again guys, greenify you tube and it won't cause any trouble while its hibernated.

In the past I always rooted my phone to install a slimmer rom and remove bloat, but with the X I've not needed to do that. I honestly have not felt the need to root and I'm looking for a solution that sees my phone's OS operating as it should that doesn't require rooting.

I'm not sure, cause I'm rooted...and I've many times had to convert you tube to a user app in order to greenify it.....so you may not be able to even do it unrooted if you tube is a system app on your phone....but greenify will work on unrooted phones now, wont it? I don't know the limitations with it tho unrooted.
But yeah, if that won't work...not sure what an unrooted phone can do about it....especially if its a system app.

Same issue: used YouTube for less than a minute today, battery has drained much faster than usual. YouTube accounts for 30% of battery used which is crazy. I always kill apps when I've finished with them so something odd is going on "behind the scenes"..

Hello all,
I'm am thinking about rooting and use greenify in order to get more battery life.
As for others I play services and Google app are my main battery consumer.
So I was thinking maybe greenifying some services with root would help.
Has somebody tried it already and would share his / her experience? Is it worth rooting?
Cheers

Actually u can root if you want to customize and check out new roms... But i have seen many people including myself going back to stock since the Moto is not available is custom roms... And i have read somewhere that its not good to greenify play services.. U will encounter problems....
The best way is root and use stock rom.. And greenify other apps causing battery drain and keep ur Cpu running low... :thumbup:
