BBS is not showing that much wakelocks for Facebook. Top 5 wakelocks are for google services when screen is off that's why I attached the screenshots showing the Google processes.

EDIT: I put my phone on charging so I will repost the wakelocks for facebook and google services when its done.
[Greenify] Thomas_BA:
Well it is impossible to eliminate those Google, special talk wake locks, they are part of the system. You can minimize them by changing some rights in Google Maps and framework via Autostart. But they are not big battery consumer.
[Greenify] intelligentking:
That's already been done. The thing I am talking about is that I know those are system wakelocks we can't eliminate them. But I have noticed a significant increase in the pointed wakelocks in the attached screenshot.
[Greenify] rysup:
I'd recommend checking out the BBS thread for minimizing/eliminating gsf wakelocks.
[Greenify] Thomas_BA:
Well those NLP wakelocks are indicating as far as i know that you connect to several wifi networks and those seams to be dirtyin combination with location service i think. Others wakelocks indicate that your are synchronizing quiet often your contacts. Both can be related as sync starts always when you connect to a new wifi or change to data connection.

The increasing of Facebook wakelocks is know since some updates. Kill it and use Friendcaster or there is a new one out there, do not remember the name.
[Greenify] intelligentking:
Thanks guys will definitely check that out.
[Greenify] android404:
When i first installed BBS I realized that my biggest wakelock - by far - was gtalk_async_conn. I didn't even have gtalk installed so I hoped installing and granting network connection to gtalk/hangouts would eliminate that wakelock but it didn't. Nothing else I tried did either, til I stumbled upon the hint to add mtalk.google.com as a list to adaway. I now have an insignificant gtalk_async_conn wakelock and hangouts uninstalled.

I'm trying to track down an issue on my tablet and when I was looking at the logcat for info I saw a number of items that said Greenify(25894)

Blocked abused ongoing Notification(pri=0 contentView=null vibrate=null sound=null defaults=0x0 flags=0x0 kind=[null]) by {com.android.lmt/com.android.lmt.TouchService}

What does this mean exactly? And should I be contacting the developer of the app?

The only 2 alarms that keep waking up my phone the most are these two. Any help as to what can reduce or elimate them will definantly help. Tried freezing calendar sync in titanium back up and greenified calendar and the usual apps.

Are you sure that text plus uses GCM Push?

Is there a certain version of Gmail that uses GCM push? I am NOT using the donate version and there are apps listed with GCM, but Gmail is not one if them.

I am using the latest versions of both Greenify and Gmail.

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

Install smart status bar from market (Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiumiu.ca.statusbar.free). This app will enable you to make the status bar appear temporarily by swiping the screen when on full screen app. So do your thing once you see the status bar in full screen app.

[Greenify] mettleh3d:
Re: [APP][3.1+] Greenify *ROOT*

If you greenify music player, what's gonna happen when you turn screen off?

You're all comparing greenify to a task killer which its not. And free ram is not a bragging right on android platform. Used ram=snappier access to commonly used apps.

Duh.
[Greenify] oasisfeng:
Noop, instant push is still disabled, but periodic sync can now be alright. That's what you see in Settings / Accounts.
[Greenify] rysup:
I don't get the icon either but it always wakes up from hibernation straight away whenever emails come through so it must use gcm. That and it's Google lol, you'd wanna hope they use their own services! ;)

I cannot greenify Google Play services anymore - it doesn't show up in Greenify for me to select at all. I am 100% sure Google Play services is installed as a user app.

If I select Google Play services manually ("+" button in main Greenify UI, then magnifying glass icon at top right corner, run "Google Settings" from launcher, then press the "APP PICKER" notification), Google Play services appears in Greenify's apps list and is greenified, but it doesn't persist. It will be gone the next time I run Greenify or after a system reboot, and Google Play services is running as usual again.

Is this expected behavior? Are there any workarounds so I can greenify Google Play services? Thanks in advance.
[Greenify] Thomas_BA:
Look into running apps, does it show up there? Anyway..

Thats GCM Push, and as i said befor. Facebook is, and more since the last updates, a GCM Push and sync hocker even if you disable sync in FB.. Look for an alternative, there are plenty out there.
[Greenify] axpira:
I think it's not possible more, see changelog:

v1.9 beta 4

Google Play services is no longer suggested to be greenified since it may break GCM.

Show error message when activating individual experimental feature if incompatibile with current ROM. (Donation version)
[Greenify] Eduardo C.:
Anyone???
[Greenify] eswar.eie:
good and a suggestion

hi,

thanks for agreat app and I got the donation version. now my tab is awsome. but if I continuously work by closing and opening many apps, again many of them will be running in the hackground. tjis again causes some lags. we have to lock the screen fpr some time to hibernate L of them.

I would like to say..it would be god if at least some apps are moved to hibernation immediately we move away from that app. means, immediately after we open another ap, the app that was prwviously being used shud b moved to hibernation.
[Greenify] SysAdmNj:
It started working after an update was released and this was just after I posted lol. And yes, it does say GCM next to text plus in greenify.
[Greenify] Nazo:
It should still be an option, just with a warning. Some don't care about GCM push. It's very dumb though if this is really true (not on Greenify's part, dumb on Google's part to build in a dependency to Google Play to make GCM work if it already could work without it.) Some of us get a little tired of Google Play always running in the background when we open it maybe once every two weeks... Especially since it decides to inform us of updates, update itself automatically, and etc.

Speaking of automatic updates, how does Greenify handle updated/reinstalled apps? It seems like I've had some waking up a lot more than they should after updates and at this point, just to be absolutely sure, I usually remove an app from the list after an update, then re-greenify it and suddenly it's not showing up anymore. I'm very suspicious that the horrible battery life I was having a couple of weeks ago was due to an updated app. I've since completely reinstalled everything (I messed up the entire OS trying to do that stupid horribly messy volume fix and actually had to format and reinstall -- never replace the framework.jar with the wrong one!) and battery life is normal again, but of course at the end of reinstalling I re-greenified every single app from scratch obviously since they had to be reinstalled on the clean OS. Before, at the end of a work shift, with my phone's screen off and basically nothing running the entire time, I'd find the battery at about 50%. Now it's around 85% or so at the end of a shift -- pretty well where it should be (with all this heat I find the battery getting really hot, so I believe this is the main culprit as it definitely seems to go down faster when it's that hot.) It seems like maybe Greenify should detect when an app is updated and make sure the app is fully greenified.
[Greenify] bsoplinger:
Greenify was able to catch the update from Tapatalk HD to Tapatalk 4, they changed the app name, so I'd say that its pretty good at being able to handle app updates.

[Greenify] Nazo:
Perhaps it just appeared that way coincidentally then. I wonder though, could apps not add more wake events or something later on? If so, even assuming Greenify keeps the old events blocked, could new ones not slip through?

Actually, I forgot, but my biggest concern in this area is: what happens when you restore an app using TitaniumBackup?
[Greenify] islipfd19:
[MENTION=4376588]oasisfeng[/MENTION]

I was thinking of way to improve upon this app. Perhaps you can setup a different option for apps where a user doesn't want to hibernate when the phone is plugged in. Once the phone is unplugged, those apps hibernate.

DeGreenify Apps using Tasker

Run this code in Tasker's run shell, It works like a charm! It opens the apps in background, so I think It'll solve all of your problems.

adb shell
am startservice -n com.whatsapp/.messaging.MessageService

You can find out the service name of any running app with the following command in Terminal Emulator.

There's a shortcut you can add which hibernates everything with one click with the screen still on.
[Greenify] bsoplinger:
As helpful as the shortcut is, I find myself using it every time I reboot my device. About 10 to 15 minutes after the boot completes I use the shortcut and get quite a list of hibernated misbehaving apps. A feature to do a one-time Greenify everything x minutes after boot feature would be great.

I can't turn GCM patch off in experimental features section.

Perhaps after I wiped data of Google Services Framework, GCM patch seemed not to work. It is not frequent, but also not rare situation. So I disabled Greenify from Xposed module, rebooted, , wiped data of greenify, deleted greenify, and reboot.

Then, I installed greenify again.

When I look into experimental features, I found GCM patch and notifications features already turned on. So I enabled rest of them, and reboot.

I was ready to fully enjoy greenify again, so I added apps I preferred to greenify list.

But GCM patch didn't work.

I checked GCM patch option, but it appeared turned on.

One thing weird is that I cannot turn it off. Even if I touch it again and again, it was still checked unlike other options.

I did uninstallation procedure above again plus clearing up and reinstalling Xposed Framework.

Unfortunately, still no go.. Exactly same problem remains..

What can I do except factory reset?
[Greenify] Kitschki:
You can't. There is no official working fix for gcm push not working. Additionally gcm push cant be turned off.
[Greenify] rysup:
You can if you get rid of the xposed framework, if u really want to greenify system apps just convert them to user apps first.

Hibernate Now Widget

Does the "Hibernate Now" widget supported in JB 4.1.2? I got Xperia Acro S but the Hibernate Now widget is not showing. I have a tablet running on ICS 4.0.4 and I can see the widget. Though this could be an Xperia firmware (6.2.B.0.200) issue, though this is the 1st time I noticed it if ever there is an issue.
[Greenify] kingvortex:
It's actually a shortcut. It's just that some launchers group shortcuts and widgets together. So, look under 'Shortcuts' when you're trying to add it to the homescreen.

[Greenify] kingvortex:
You're welcome. :)
[Greenify] sordna:
oasisfeng, can you add an option to allow certain greenified apps to run at boot time before they are hibernated ?

I'm using an app (Trickester MOD) that I need it to run when my phone first boots, and I want to hibernate it after that, but if I greenify it, it won't run during boot time at all, and I need it to run once whenever my phone first boots.

I think it will be a generally useful feature, to be able to configure certain apps to allow them to run at boot before they hibernate... is it possible ?
[Greenify] thracemerin:
TricksterMod doesn't misbehave when closed, why do you need to hibernate it at all?
[Greenify] sordna:
Because on a Nexus 4 it keeps a service running which I don't need. Greenify itself reports the wakelocks for it!

Anyway... it would be a generally useful feature to be able to configure apps to run at boot before they hibernate.
[Greenify] NickosD:
I have it to hibernate but at boot it changes the settings. So where's the problem?

[Greenify] sordna:
For me it does not wake up to change the settings at boot. Anyway, this is not a trickster mod thread, I am asking for a legitimate feature in greenify for which I would like to hear oasisfeng's opinion.

Besides, for many apps we do not want them to start at boot, but for a few we do, so having this configurable would be great, if Greenify can be easily enhanced to support it of course.
[Greenify] themadproducer:
This thread has many questions similar to this one. The answer is to use Tasker with Greenify. Lots of flexibility.
[Greenify] thunstop:
Great app, only thing I really miss is the option to put all my running apps to hibernation by Hitting one button.

I really hope that's a feature you add!

Maybe also possible to select individual apps that runs to go to sleep.

:)
[Greenify] kingvortex:
If you mean that you want hibernate everything that is running, without having to select them via Greenify first, then that is beyond the scope of this app. It is not and is not intended to be a task killer to free up RAM.

If you mean that you want to hibernate all the apps you have already added to the list in Greenify, then the option is already there, via the 'Hibernate Now' shortcut.
[Greenify] maxxhtc:
Don't know if this been covered, probably has, but I have greenify root installed but it's not enabled as module in xposed frameworks.

Should I enable it in xposed as module and how should I set things up over there if so

I'm using whatsapp, viber, facebook standalone chat app and kik. I haven't greenified these apps, but I understand I could use some sort of push function to wake them up only if I use xposed greenify module?

Please explain this further, would be greatful to save some power in my phone

Can you explain further please. I got trickster but it does not start on reboots (thru twrp i guess i see red text when rebooting).

How to use tasker to help with trickster, or point me to a post explaining this?

I already have this. It's the Zzz widget for greenify! Didn't know it existed, but it does. Once hit it hibernates all apps in the list for grennification. :good:

p.s. Should I use some other powersaving app. I'm only using greenify atm and intellidemand in trickster..

/maxxy
[Greenify] thunstop:
No that is not what I mean.

When you have selected all your apps and greenified them, then you open a couple of the apps but then you are finish using those app but still want to use other apps then it is nice to hibernat those you do not want to use at that time manually, yes this Is possible already but you can only hibernate one app at a time , and if you have 4 of those app it would be easier to just hit hibernate all apps that are pending to hibernate
[Greenify] kingvortex:
Like I said, that functionality is already there. :)

Add the 'Hibernate Now' shortcut to your homescreen and use it when you want to hibernate everything on the 'Pending' list without waiting for Greenify to do it automatically.
[Greenify] themadproducer:
Not only that, but I use a two finger up swipe gesture in GoLauncher to initiate the Hibernate All. Super easy and convenient.

---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:47 AM ----------

@maxhtc,

Not sure what your asking re trickster. Can you rephrase.
[Greenify] Nazo:
This does seem like something that should be within Greenify itself, not just an external shortcut though. I, for one, don't really like having two widgets for Greenify. I have my launcher setup to put a lot of icons on each screen, but I still only have limited screen space as it is, so wasting a spot on the home screen in particular is kind of a pain. Generally I'd rather open Greenify and select a bunch of pending apps (not sure if he knows or not, but you can now hold on one and it will enter selection mode) rather than wasting space outside the app for another shortcut, but then regardless, there's no reason that any functionality of an app should be completely external when it would be easy and logical for a button to exist inside the app to do it (there's plenty of room inside the app.)

BTW, while we're on the subject of buttons inside the app, is there any way to get it to show the button bar on the bottom in a tablet? On my phone it's on the bottom and partially I get used to that, but partially I guess I just like it better there, but on my tablet it puts it on the top instead. I've tried tricking it with Xposed Framework's App Settings module (which can change the DPI among other things on an individual app basis rather than system-wide) but still on the top...

[Greenify] bsoplinger:
Not that easily. The layout used for tablets has everything up on the bar that shows up when the tablet UI is used. Since you're most likely using the Xposed framework to enable the experimental features you can try a few of the different Xposed modules to force the phabletUI or even phone UI. There's a thread here at XDA that's collected most of the modules together. Just look through that for various options.
