Why? Greenify is meant to control badly behaved apps. How do you know if an app falls into that category when you have just installed it?

Or are you one of those using it as a task killer? It is not meant for that.
[Greenify] iamelton:
i usually greenify those apps that keep an eye on my app installations and un-installations..

if the above "feature" is implemented, i probably would have to request for a feature to greenify "Greenify" itself!
[Greenify] kev1njenius:
just installed the stable version from play store. hope this app can hold up my battery lifeee. THUMBS UP TO THE DEVELOPERS!
[Greenify] oasisfeng:
Do you use Superuser from ChainsDD or other root tool? I have been experimenting some changes in root operations, but still can't properly solve the compatibility issue with Superuser which is not correctly granting root privilege when screen is off. SuperSU and the new Superuser from ClockworkMod both work fine.

What waking cause shows in Greenify? Do you use the old Superuser too?

Could you please try once more the new 1.7 beta 7?
[Greenify] oasisfeng:
1.7 beta 7

FIX: Finally fixes the issue that causing wakeup alarms analysis not working on Android 4.0.x.
[Greenify] Looki75:
I am using SuperSU, for which you say that there is no root issue.

Ok, so I think the root re-coding is not to blame in the Tasker Plugin not working anymore.

I confirm the following:

* Before and up to 1.7b5 included, the Tasker plugin was working perfect

* From 1.7b6 as well as in 1.7b7, the Tasker plugin is not working anymore

Thanks to correct in 1.7b8
[Greenify] eejee:
This might have to do with the recent Tasker update itself, after which the plugin is not properly recognized. I solved it by redefining the hibernation task. I use the CM superuser.

[Greenify] Looki75:
So how did you do exactly?

I deleted the action in Tasker, created again... but still the same issue: from b6, no way - the hibernation is not triggered...
[Greenify] eejee:
That is what I did. Sorry if this doesn't work for you.

My ROM uses the open source Superuser from Koush.

Again, the 1.6 version from play store is working as expected.

---------- Post added at 11:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 PM ----------

I have been running Tasker 4.0 since beta 3, about 2 months ago.

Never any problems, and 1.6 and all 1.7 beta's up to b5 worked.
[Greenify] BTT8:
Any one know why i dont get gmail notifications anymore after installing Greenify? The email does come in just fine but I don't get the sound notification and blinking LED.

I have Tasker set up to check for email every 15 minutes. But I did NOT greenify Gmail or Tasker.

Edit~

So if I re-enable auto-sync, then the sound and LED notification comes back irregardless of what is greenified. But if I uncheck auto-sync, i lost sound/LED notification.

Any way to rectify this?

How different is this from killing proccess with a script some 1 min after leaving whatever app that is in question? Other than a quite a bit smooher, ofcourse. Im on Gingerbread so I cannot use this program.
[Greenify] themadproducer:
Process of elimination.

1) Disable Greenify within it's menu....or

2) Uninstall Greenify.

Do either of these steps resolve the issue?

Report back with this information and perhaps someone can help you.

Like the OP says as well as many detailed explanations within this thread state....killing an app can be a cat and mouse game. Many stubborn apps will be able to automatically re-spawn the way they usually do when they are killed with conventional methods. But Greenify uses another method(s) to tame them which does not tax the system.
[Greenify] Hirishiolo:
same question... does it can create problems?

another question: if I hibernate an application, does greenify block its push notifications too?
[Greenify] kyokeun1234:
It can probably create issues with play store. Also yes, hibernating the app will mean that no push or any kind of notification service. As far as I know
[Greenify] BTT8:
So greenifying either Google maps, Google voice or google music will disable the sound notification. This is only when autosync is disabled.
[Greenify] asdot:
I'm using SuperSU.

Okay, I'll update to b7 and update SuperSU also.

I've just greenfield my phone with this APP, its a 1Ghz dual core, 512MB RAM, used heavily most of the time,

let me use it for a day or two and get back with some good tweets to do, fingers crossed ;)

Keep up the good work.
[Greenify] AndrasLOHF:
This app is simply amazing. Most all lag when doing intense processes is gone without unnecessary stuff running in the background. I have this paired with Deep Sleep Battery Saver and my average battery life per GSam has gone up by an hour and fourty five minutes and increases each day. I do see some Greenified apps such as Maps starting themselves but big offenders like Facebook are no longer an issue.Thanks for your work on this.

Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

I picked 6 apps to hibernate. Only 1 apps successfully hiberbated at the first try. 5 of them are pending and it says wait until screen off it while automatically hibernate something like that.

So I'll just let it do itself instead of me pressing the pause button. Then I went to sleep from 3am to 12pm, my phone battery goes from 72% to 9% I said wtf. Then there is greenify in my noti bar it says please agree to root or something like that eventhough I already done that when I first open the app.

Then I my 5 apps are still pending since last night and that's what cause the massive battery drain :D

So I guess when it says it will hibernate the apps automatically when screen off doesnt really worked :P

So after that I'll just press the pause button to hibernate manually instead of waiting for greenify to hibernate it itself when pending which never worked :D
[Greenify] ariftwister:
Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

+1

Same problem for me.. But even worse... Even after I press pause the apps still in pending only.. Only one app is hibernated, all other apps are just pending, even after 1 or 2 days:eek::sly:
[Greenify] w1040:
Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

But mine worked after pressing the pause button.

I'm sure you get massive battery drain if you let your apps pending to be hibernated for 2 days??? You need make it stop pending or else your battery will drop drastically like I did last night.

Just press the pause button, don't let it pending for too long

Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

The app has problems getting superuser permissions for me.

Every few minutes I get a notification saying failed to get root. When I click on the notification I get the 'granted superuser permissions' toast message. I'm on xperia s ics and use superuser.
[Greenify] Vangelis13:
Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

Try SuperSu. SuperUser is wonky since JellyBean.
[Greenify] Harsha Raj:
Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

Try SuperSU https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu

-Install SuperSU

-Open it and choose update binaries if it's asks for it

-Then grant su permission to SuperSU app with superuser app

-Now open Greenify app and grant Greenify su permission with SuperSU app.
[Greenify] oasisfeng:
Can you send me a logcat after screen off for at lease 3 minutes, with some pending greenified apps (not manually hibernated)?
[Greenify] oasisfeng:
I have released a new version with improved root execution procedure. Please try to see if it did any help for your situations.

There is uncertain delay before upgrade is available on Play store. So please be patient. :D
[Greenify] skingg:
Hi, just wanted to say thank you for this wonderful app! If I may make a suggestion for consideration to a future update, if you could implement a task scheduler whereby Greenify can hibernate and de-hibernate selected apps at a set time range. I've only recently come to know about alarms and wakelocks from BBS and learnt that alot of messengers (whatsapp, naver line, tencent wechat, etc) are keeping smartphones from going to deep sleeps so I'd really hope that Greenify could hibernate said messengers at night and wake them up in the morning automatically as this would save alot of battery drainings when the phone is not in use. I wouldnt mind if this feature (profiles/task schedulers) is only implemented in a 'Pro' version as I'd be more than willing to pay for it. :)
[Greenify] oae08:
Hello Dev. Great app there man I hope you keep improving and working on it and soon it will become one of the best out there.

However im noticing slight bugs sometimes for example the facebook app is not hibernated alone and i have to go into greenify and force hibernate it.

Thanks for your time.
[Greenify] MadManMark:
This app seems great so far, just wondering whether this does a significant amount for saving battery life? Or just better performance? Im also getting the failed to gain permanent root permission
[Greenify] oasisfeng:
It's surely a feature for advanced users. As I replied before, it's on my list, but may be not as soon as other important features and improvements.

Considering push, I'm working on a mechanism to enable GCM push for hibernated apps.
[Greenify] oasisfeng:

Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

I already updated to the latest version but the root permission is still there. And my battery dropped from 50% to 40% in 9 hours from deep sleep because of the greenify asking for root permission in the notification bar.

Also, it still failed to hibernate automatically when pending when the screen off.
[Greenify] oae08:
Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

Why does greenify sometimes wake my phone to ask for superuser permission? I'm running the latest beta, but I've had this issue on previous betas as well.

You should check "remember" or "don't ask again" or so in the permission requesting dialog.

PS: Some root management tools re-ask for confirmation every time the app is updated.

Guys since a few days I don't get any sounds from facebook messenger, but the notification is there as usual. Deleting app data did not solve the problem. Might this occur because I hibernated the facebook (not messenger) app?

For me not even notice even after ungreenify and all above
[Greenify] Lownita:
Strange, but is it possible that the messenger app behaves bad because I greenified facebook app? I always thought they would be independent.

But the internal service of Greenify is using 18 MB memory , the latest stable 3 MB.
[Greenify] parthipanramesh:
I have a problem. Normally I have 1% or 2% overnight drain. But with greenify I have 8-10% overnight drain? I turned off greenify last evening and I only had 1% overnight drain. I'm using better battery stats. What's the reason?
[Greenify] scream4cheese:
The answer you seek is in BBS. Check your wakelocks and partial wakelocks.
[Greenify] simono_pl:
Is this possible to hibernate system application? I have stock ROM with root of cource and I don't won't to remove Google Maps but I cannot hibernate it because Greenify says that this is system application.

There is nothing only greenify. Without greenify I have 1 percent overnight drain.

Would you consider to adding Timer for hibernating apps. Set a default time but add customize for each app. I want to hibernate facebook after 3 minutes later Screen off. If possible it Would be great. Thanks :)

I've greenified Google Play Services. Is that a good or bad idea?

The only deficits I've noticed so far are that Google+ and Gmail notifications are no longer instantaneous, but are still coming through. That's not the end of the world to me. What's nice is that my phone is now entering Deep Sleep 90+% of the time when my screen is off.

I'm going to try this out for a few days.

[Greenify] Mad Marty:
Please, is is THAT hard to read the first few posts of the topic? :rolleyes:
[Greenify] boojay:
Thanks for the heads up. Google Play Services actually "wasn't" a system app for me so I was able to Greenify it natively (i.e. without having to convert to a user app). I'm using a MIUI rom, maybe that's why.

Anyway, I just tested out downloading/installing apps from the Play Store with no problems.

So far, there has been little to no detriment in my phone use so I'm quite pleased. The alarms/wakelocks and partial wakes caused by Google services (in particular those related to maps, Network Location Locator, com.google.android.location, etc.) have all but disappeared and I'm still consistently getting 90% deep sleep when the screen is off with battery drain at an impressive 0 to 0.4% whenever I check BBS every hour to see how it's doing.

Fingers crossed that this is the solution!! ;D
[Greenify] boojay:
