[Greenify] popthosegaskets:
Not recommended to hibernate system apps unless you know what you're doing. Anything installed from Google Play should be safe to hibernate. If you hibernate a system app without knowing the effect, it may cause problems with the software.

Good for you...

---------- Post added at 08:28 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:05 AM ----------

There is no direct answer to that.

As you may probably know, not all devices have the same system apps. If you are running some version of touchwiz, for example, you'll have only a small similarity of apps coexisting on someone's htc sense or a device with cyanogenmod rom.

So, you better look in google.for a list of apps safe to remove (or freeze) for your specific device&rom combination.

Then, you really have to consider if you need to greenify system apps at all, or select which ones are misbehaving and consuming battery. Read OP. Blindly hibernating apps- system or not- "just because you can" is not necessarily going to do your phone any good. Maybe the opposite.

[MENTION=4376588]oasisfeng[/MENTION]: maybe, since it is probably one of the most concerning question that is being asked over and over again, is it possible to try some "crowdsourcing voting" mechanism. For example, you have the data collected from the "raise your voice" (or add a button that allows user to upload his list of greenified apps). Then, add an option when selecting an app to "get restriction from crowd/voters". Then, for example if application "x" was grenified by 200 users and left alone by 800, it will tell the user "your selected app has been hibernated by 20% (200 out of 1000) users, do you wish greenify it, yes/no?" or something like that.

Or, generating some wiki page where all users can see a living list of apps and their greenify score by users. looks like with increasing number if users it will average quite reasonably. People can then browse the list and see if the app they want to greenify is in the list and what others are thinking about hibernating it.

There's such a mechanism that works great in Xprivacy and it is an extremely useful tool.
[Greenify] Wh1t3Rose:
You need to learn some terminology. Any app installed from the play store is called a user app. An app that comes in A ROM pre-installed is a system app. He wants to know about hibernating system apps not user apps.
[Greenify] rignfool:
Let's try this again...

Any app you have in your system partition... That is downloadable from the play store... Is safe to hibernate...
[Greenify] eushaun99:
While you are right, but that's not what he meant. He meant system apps that are already in the play store and can be downloaded when you uninstall it. For example, Google Search.

Edit: god dammit, too slow :p

You are right, sorry about that. Ok, aside from the GPS issue there is also the issue that makes Wakelock Detector and Better Battery Stats break under kitkat:

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=61975

I think the latter issue is closely related to Greenify, as the BATTERY_STATS helps the related apps to identify which apps is worth to Greenify. So let's star that issue too!

[Greenify] Wh1t3Rose:
Once again this is not related to greenify so stop posting here. FTR its not broken. They just made it impossible to read BATTERY_STATS without root. That's all. And BBS is fixed. Been using it for a week on 4.4

Thank you.
[Greenify] PyromaniacGhoul:
I did this to fix the same issue you are having:

use a file explorer (root browser is good) and go to /data/app and search for anything that is related to greenify (should be called "com.oasisfeng.greenify-1.apk etc) and delete them, I had 3 files I had to delete (1 for the normal version, 2 relating to the donation version - make sure to check for the odex file for greenify and delete that, it's the main culprit) and then I rebooted my device and installed everything again just fine :).
[Greenify] Decimation:
I don't know about the other guy, but I have to click the widget to hibernate ANY apps as opposed to them hibernating when the screen is off. I'm using superSU 1.80, free version of greenify, running stock 4.4.1.

[Greenify] limyuyang:
Unfortunately, I went to /data/app and there's no thing there. I also went to sdcard/data/ there's no files related to greenify too. That's really weird.....

[Greenify] chaim18:
is it possible to select times when certain apps auto hibernate? i have alarm clocks and widgets which i only need out of hibernation certain times of the day and certain days. i guess the way it would work would be to have greenify itself wake up apps at certain times and then put them on the whitelist for certain times. tia

sorry to bring an old question but how to ungreenify system apps properly since they cannot be run manually? for example LG software for the On-Screen Phone function is not running in the background nor does it start upon connecting the cable anymore after being ungreenified.

edit: looks like i had to disable Greenify xposed module, reboot, enable it again. ungreenified system apps started functioning again. is that the way to go about it in general?
[Greenify] Persianhawkes:
Wipe your cache and dalvik cache first and reboot and it will install just fine.

Anyone? It seems that sometimes it'll auto run and sometimes it doesn't. That or my apps just don't run anymore...
[Greenify] themadproducer:
[MENTION=2629552]geokilla[/MENTION]

Please clarify. Is it:

1) After rebooting, Greenify Service is not alive in the background?

or

2) Greenify is alive but not hibernating your apps.

(which happens 3-5min after screen turns off)
[Greenify] limyuyang:
Hmm......there's no files related to greenify at all.

And the only way to use is I reflash a new rom, this is the only solution, and now the problem is solved, I can install greenify again, thanks everyone for helping me.

Thanks so much.
[Greenify] geokilla:
A combination of 1 and 2 I think? Mainly 2. Sometimes when I check the Running Apps in Go Launcher, I see apps like TuneIn are active even though they should've been hibernated. Greenify never shows up in the Running Apps section of Go Launcher though. It shows up under Running Apps in Settings --> Apps.
[Greenify] newxda85:
If I may make a suggestion, please add features GCMPUSH enable/disable based on applications. so i can disable GCM PUSH on some apps that i dont want to especially GAMES :o
[Greenify] themadproducer:
I use Go Launcher Prime.

It doesn't show Greenify on mine either.

Most likely, it's because Greenify is running as a background SERVICE rather than a PROCESS...and Go Launcher is perhaps only showing PROCESSES. Using System Tuner Pro or similar app, you can clearly confirm that Greenify is alive and well.

Do you have an active widget on your home screen for Tune-in radio? That might explain why it's still listed in Go Launcher. Keep in mind:

- apps auto hibernate 3-5 minutes after screen off

- some rare apps don't stay hibernated especially if they don't follow coding guidelines. Some cheat!

- some apps hibernate, but are woken by other apps which are already awake.

To test if Tune-in Radio does/will hibernate... do it manually from within the Greenify app. Use the Wake Tracker to see if you can find out what is waking it up....if it doesn't stay hibernated.

[Greenify] thracemerin:
You understand that the experimental features require modifications to the systemUI and framework of the ROM which means that without Xposed they would have to be cooked into each ROM individually for there to be support and for devices that can't be built from source this would be nearly impossible to accomplish.

Optimized Dalvik is faster than ART, most of the speed/smoothness of ART is placebo.
[Greenify] sordna:
Actually, *some* things, like hibernating certain system apps, does work without Xposed. I use a script to:

am force-stop com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget

and it works for me. I have asked oasisfeng in the past to allow this option to donation Greenify (I will happily buy the donation version, but I do not want to install Xposed).

Maybe oasisfeng can reconsider; he did say that hibernating system apps without Xposed doesn't always work properly, and such an option would confuse users, but I'm willing to live with that compromise.

Yes, I can't properly hibernate Google search, but I can hibernate Gallery, Weather, and Chrome system apps without Xposed and that's good enough for me.

But I'd rather get rid of my shell scripts and buy Greenify donation to do this, as long as it will allow this functionality!

PLEASE ADD THIS ! You will gain more customers :). I'll be the first!
[Greenify] thracemerin:
Right, but again this works on your device, it may not work on every version of Android on every device, and if it works on some apps and not others you know that people will come in here and complain that they can't use it for app x or app y. The xposed solution works well for almost all apps on almost all ROMs on almost all devices which makes it much simpler to support.
[Greenify] sordna:
Yes, I know. It could be a setting deep inside the menus:

Allow hibernating of system apps without Xposed - WARNING MAY NOT WORK, MAY NUKE YOUR PHONE, ITS BROKEN AND I DONT SUPPORT THIS.

I would check that option in a heartbeat!

Take my money.
[Greenify] thracemerin:
I'm not disagreeing with you that it could be possible, but people on XDA have a serious problem with reading things like OPs and get themselves into trouble and then post their troubles, that needs to be taken into consideration.

I love Greenify. Thanks for such a great app. I liked it so much that I bought the donation app.

Here are two suggestions:

1) Allow a "timer" option so that if I start using a greenified app, then stop using it, then Greenify will greenify it again after a pre-determined time of non-useage. Like if I don't use it for 15 minutes, then it gets put to sleep again.

2) Maybe I'm just doing something wrong? But it's hard to see which apps are already greenified when I'm reviewing the list to add more items to the greenified list.
[Greenify] an0n981:

Thanks pal.
[Greenify] haseogu:
Well i think in op. This app doesn't support built in timer, but, it's support tasker plugin, so yeah wer can use tasker to set the time
[Greenify] atomomega:
Well there's not a timer you can manually set but greenified apps get hibernated after 3-5 minutes the screen goes off. As for your 2 suggestion, as somebody already pointed out to you, you can easily see your greenified apps by going to the little back arrow at the upper left corner in the App Analyzer. It'll tell you which are hibernated and which are pending (again, those in this list will get hibernated 3-5 minutes after the screen goes off)

There. And next time don't think people is being a smart*ss out of nowhere.

"Through a Reddit thread, Morris essentially said that clearing the service framework data will break things. He said that doing so essentially changes the ID of your device, so as far as servers are concerned you have given your device a factory reset. This will then invalidate tokens used by any app that uses GCM, which includes almost all Google apps and a number of third party apps. Apps like Gmail will not get notifications for a while, but will eventually be fine. Other apps will simply cease to get GCM-push notifications until they get a new GCM ID, which might take a while."
