I dont mind paying the few dollars for greenify. But google services dont *stay* greenified for any length of time. IVe looked into it alrady... they seem to start right back up. I literally pressed the manual hibernation, did nothing and waited like 10 seconds, and pressed it again... and both times popped up "google play services hibernated".

Thats with eveything else possible already greenified.

I dont even think i kept any "gapps" at all. I replaced the couple id use with (much smaller) browser shortcuts. (youtube). i have maps disablied and street view. likely will never use since gps uses data and data costs LOTS of money...

besides the play store i really dont know if i need much else.

ive been very tempted to disable the "wearable" portions of google services. i dont have a watch or whatever, its a phone.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
I disable wearables too
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] R3t0qX:
thank you :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pawprints1986:
Hey, i think i may have figured out why google play services kept restarting itself.

Last night i decided to spend the $3 for the donation package on greenify. Just now i decided to hibernate the play store (i dont mind checking manually for updates).... since i did that, if i press hibernate, its not constantly trying to hibernate google play services!!

Still messing around with what is greenifyable. Lots of things say i can, but i dont want to do crazy damage.

Is there anything that is *not* safe to greenify?? (I know better than to greenify my handcent messaging app).

I decided to take swype out of greenified state. I had left a conversation open and it had auto hibernated on me... so when i went to start swyping again nothing was registering, until i exited my messenger and re-entered.

But i text often enough, so i guess it makes sense to keep that running anyway.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
You could have gotten it for free..lol..just don't hibernate clock. The only system apps I hibed are email,calendar,browser, and file explorer. No issues yet. :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pawprints1986:
I havent, but is clock significant? I thought that was just the alarm clock??

I did hibernate browser, or "web" as its called on mine, and the camera (tested, no issues so far), calculator, device management (dont knowwhat it is, but no issues so far), gallery (doesnt stay hibernated?), google play services/store, kies via wifi (which im on a rooted rom anyway, will i need that at all?), memo, music player (ringtones still work), video player, voice recorder, wifi direct/sharing/sharing manager....

There are many others listed as possible to hibernate, but im not sure what they do. If i were to write out what they are, would someone be able to tell me if its safe or not?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
Just don't hibe clock or any ota function for your ROM
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] roblou56:
Could you pm me that list.

can i disable bluetoothvoipservice if i don't use bluetooth?

its always running -_-

i use normal phone thou and don't want to mess with normal incoming calls
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matomix:
I guess it should be OK. To be sure you could just ask someone to call you after you disabled it to see if there is some issue ;).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pawprints1986:
just tried it and it froze my phone as i was looking through on first run.... lol. not off to a good start!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
I had same issue with android tools. My advice is to just stick with disable services or amplify.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] matomix:
Oh that's weird, never had that kind of issue. Sorry that it didnt work for you :(. I guess it depends on ROM and device. I read some other thread with this app and but nobody report some kind of froze.

High Data Usage

Can anyone explain me this? :D
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] daniu:
Maybe ...

Did you see this after flashing a new ROM and restoring data usage in titanium backup? I get that kind of thing when I do that. Seems like data usage is tracked by some ID which is reassigned each time you flash a new ROM and reinstall apps ... so all this data is nonsense. Check the rest of the data - you should roughly know what causes traffic on your device

Regards
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sfs15:
This is the best application ever made so far. I would have thought about leaving android without it.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ExTrEmEe:
no, i use this rom for about 3 months and never saw this and i restored only data for viber, nothing else, but i did that about month ago.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] freecore.mc:
wow this is great but question if all Google framework services are disabled what's the point of having the app??? and if U disable anything else please let me know ?? [MENTION=5465166]matomix[/MENTION]

How come services of "FROOZEN" apps (by Titanium) still appear in the list of services inside Disable Services?

Are these services still active?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] RazorMC:
Because frozen apps are not uninstalled. They will keep showing up in apps that identify system level apps and services.

They are not running, but are still there in your system.

bootloop

Samsung galaxy grand. Disabled some google services that i know are safe and some samsung services. rebooted and now bootloop. I can access lock screen. but after 2-3 second phone reboots. is there any recovery zip to enable services back?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] 0.0:
The app does not display the Nlp wakelock like it used to. I am on 5.1
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sfs15:
How can we fix that? I mean, i needed those services to be disabled (too many wakelocks)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
If all else fails use app ops
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sfs15:
"All else"? I've only tried disable service and myandroidtools, both not working, any suggestion?

App ops is not useful in this case because blocking location in google play services affects also google maps; "stay awake", instead, has always been disabled for google play services in my phone :D [although i've always had wakelocks anyway :/]
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
Then idk. I suggested app ops as nothing else works
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mrfrantastic:

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cjh-75:
Well I'll start off by attaching mine, although I think it could be missing some services, hence the question! Will see if anyone else has a better one. Thanks.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rafael667:
i've disabled some things in the google play services and sometimes i have the wifi icon grey (i have internet but i don't get notifications from the apps).

i don't know which service is interfering with that. it's random grey/blue.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nick_white:
There is a service that after I disable, after a couple o minutes (I don't know what triggers it), it's back on again, and running.

It's ProxyGTalkService from Google Play Services.

Anyone else noticed this (and possibly a solution)?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
Sounds like either talkback or google talk apps. Coukd also be a simple apn setting
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nick_white:
I have both TalkBack and Google Talk disabled (actually, almost every Google app except for store), so those shouldn't be doing this.

What does the APN have to do with this? BTW, I don't use data connection.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
Diesnt matter if they are disabled or not. There are still services running.

I suggest that you install better battery stats. That will pinpoint the wake lock
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] rafael667:
Anyone who have disabled several google play services have some issue with the wifi? like in 4.1 doesn't turn blue or in 4.4 doesn't turn orange (in notifications bar).

which means you don't receive notifications of some apps.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
I have learned that it's much easier to just use app ops.. That way important services aren't contradicting with other apps
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] mihaithecat:
The app just doesn't work. I can't enable/disable any service. It asks for root, I approve, says "wait" and nothing. I have a htc one with venom lollipop. Got root and busybox. I tried to clear data, cache, reinstall, reboot, nothing worked... :( Is it a problem with android l?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] sathish804:
If we want to reset all the services disabled or enabled what need to be done from the app??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] marknoll:
Uncheck boxes in app, then soft reboot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ammadb:
does checking any thing disables it or enables it?

there is no special disable button. and everything is selected at default. i do not understand this app
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] andQlimax:
Not so easy because when I first installed the app, there was already some services disabled. So after many time of using the app I don't know the one I manually disabled and the ones was already disabled.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] zbysogi:
Sorry in advance if I wrote this in the wrong section.

Anyone knows which process is responsible for connection of the phone to the computer? Every time I plug it in it doesnt connect. I just froze Greenify and disable services using Titatnium backup and it works but I cant find the process... any ideas?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] k500zm:
Media storage is the process make sure you have it enabled as startup ! ;)

Gmail AutoSync

When I turn off auto sync for gmail, the app prompts me with a message that states I don't have auto sync turned on. Is there a service that could be disabled that would prevent these annoying messages?

Scott
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nick_white:
Not a service, but most likely a broadcast listener.

Download MyAndroidTools (same dev as Disable Service) and look at broadcast listeners for Gmail for some sync event type.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cableghost:
Thanks. I found a sync-related receiver for Google Keep, but not for Gmail. Is there a resource to understand what all the receivers for an app do?

MotoX2014, via TapaTalk
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nick_white:
Unfortunately not, only if they are open source (Google apps are not).

But you have documentation for the events that trigger the receivers (BOOT_COMPLETED etc.) in the Android SDK.

This, combined with the receiver class + package name (you need to display that too) can be enough to figure out what the receiver does. For example, if you have a receiver with something like "Analytics" or "Ads" for the wifi enabled event, you fairly know what it's for. But you still have to test if the app behaves well without it; although the Android programming model is asynchronous, I bet there is a lot of bad error handling, infinite loops (waiting for something async to start that doesn't), persisting wakelocks (starting a wakelock in one component, stopping it in another that is disabled or killed)...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] cableghost:
Thanks.

How can the service 'wearablecontrolservice' in Google Play Services still show up and run in amplify after I have disabled it with DisabledService App?

Im not using any wear device. I have also disabled other 'wearable' services.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] nick_white:
You need to reset Amplify stats and see if it shows up again. But if you're talking about Amplify's Services tab, you will still see it there because there the requests are logged, that are not necessarily fulfilled (a service that's disabled cannot start).
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] lace_hvc:
I reset it and it appeared again with the requests rising. Yes, I'm refering to that services tab. So these are simply requests. No need to bother then. I didn't know that. Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ECloud7:
Alright so I am not sure what I am doing wrong and I don't think I'm stupid. I have an International Galaxy S7 edge. I installed Disable Service, Noticed that I need root, Rooted with CF Auto Root, opened Disable Service, Tried to uncheck System->photos->AutoSignInAndSyncJobService and it says "Wait" and then "Granted root access" but nothing happens. Also AutoSignInAndSyncJobService is highlighted cyan blue if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the help!

I'm on a rooted s4 active running android 4.4.2 I disabled both services in the location services tab which did what it was supposed to do, however when I attempted to re-enable them my location services still do not work. They do not show up as disabled in the app but they are either still disabled or simply no longer working. Any ideas of how I could fix this?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheTecXpert:
Hey guys, for the past few days I have been using the Disable services app on my rooted Xperia Z5 MM and I have been doing a fair bit of disabling, enabling, monitoring system stability, performance, battery drain, memory consumption etc etc.. Suprisingly last night i was able to manage reaching a SOT time (from 100% down to 24% battrry for approximately almost 8hrs.. Monitoring battery drainage and power usage.. I have found that over Wi Fi, SOT times are much better than Mobile data.. Currently out of the whopping 439 google play services that exist, I have so far disabled 95 services without any negative effects, crashes or ANRs.. Im still going through it bit by bit and monitoring system and battery as I go and ill report back here soon when I have more detailed info to provide.. At the moment I am busy, but ill keep you guys posted shortly..

Try hitting the refresh button at the top when you're at the home screen menu of the app.xlick on System>tap refresh a few times and see if the service starts. If it doesnt, the other way to get the service to start back up is to go to System>Apps>(settings of associated app) >clear the apps data/cache>reboot phone..

You should have it working again without any issues.

Hi, there! 95 services without a FC is amazing! :victory: When you have the time, post you results here please. I think I'm not the only one looking for a "reduced" Google Play Services ;). Good luck! :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheTecXpert:
***UPDATE***

I am happy to report that I have currently disabled 135 Google Play Services and so far it has been several hours and my Xperia Z5 E6653 is running very smoothly and extremely responsive

I Will keep monitoring battery consumption/life for a few days and ill post my results when I can :)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CLPose:
Hi, there! What about push notifications such as those from email or Whatsapp? Do they keep on working as expected? Thanks for sharing your experience.:good: And, please, could you post the solution in case of bootloops or UI FC? I can't think of any other solution than a nandroid backup. :confused: Thanks!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheTecXpert:
As for push notifications, I have left them as is.. Wappushsms services i have left enabled..

The main services I disabled are

ALL wearable ralated services

ALL tapandpay related services

most sync/autoSync related services

ALL fitness related services

ALL fusedlocation related services

ALL location and location reporting services.. ( Refer to the previous post)

Here is a screenshot of what it looks like in the menu of the Disable service app. Under SYSTEM tab..

All the red is everything I have disabled (the number in red is the number of services that I have disabled in each main service
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] igromanru:
It is possible to reactivate a service somehow from recovery?

After disabling the "FusedLocationService" my android has start to crashing all the time. I had to hard reboot multiple times before I could start the app and reactivate the service.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CLPose:
+1 to the idea of enabling all services from recovery. But I don't know if it's possible :confused:. Anyway, remember to make a nandroid backup before making big changes, so that you can restore in case of disaster ;). Tell us if you could disable more services without issues on phone. Good luck! :good:
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] igromanru:
I don't know it was done in the app, but I bet it would work the same way from recovery terminal with su.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheTecXpert:
Sorry for the late response, I didnt seem to receive a notification for some bizarre reason. Anywho. The simple answer to your questions are..

1. Re-enabling a service is done the same way as disabling a service... HOWEVER... If you are as unlucky as i am and everytime you tried to enable or disable specific types of services,rhe app would just shutdown and when you go back in to the services tab and look for the service you try to disable, the service still remains disabled..

IF THE ABOVE MENTIONED PROBLEM IS HAPPENING TO You, then continue reading the next Solution which I mentioned in my very long post earlier..

But because I am a nice person and because I care, I will explain it again in the post for your convenience..

SOLUTION 2...

The easiest way to revert all changes made back to default..

1. In your custom recovery menu, you can just clear art/dalvik cache and cache..

If the above doesn't work for you. Then try solution 2 below.

Solution 2..

Navigate from your phones home screen to Settings>Apps>.. Inside this menu list of all your apps, tap thr 3dots on the top right of the screen and tap "show system apps"..

Now that all your user and system apps are shown, tap on the app or service that you made changes to (in this case we'll say fusedlocation)..

Navigate in to the apps preferences / settings and clearthe app data and cache and reboot the device..

With Google play store /services.

If clearing the app data and cache then rebooti method does not work for you.

Then just uninstall all the updates for both of those app/services which will restore them back to factory default versions..

Then reboot, and you will be back to an error free device, and you can start over again disabling apps or services as you please without losing any of your user data, files, or any other apps you have installed.

This method is safe as I had to do this 3 times after disabling a service that o should not have :)

Hope that helps guys.. Good luck

Hi

I disabled FusionLocation to turn off GPS.

Now my p8 lite wont boot into system. I can boot only to TWRP.

Any help?

Thanks

edit: trying to wipe dalvik/cache.. did not helped :(
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Pawprints1986:
Glad you posted this... I was wondering what it was and if it's needed myself, thought of doing that myself too. Unless you had disabled other things too?

But either way thanks for the heads up [emoji4]
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] TheTecXpert:
Yeah be careful not to disable that service, it will bootloop you.. There's fusedlocation and fusedprovider.. Be careful when it comes to those 2 services. If you disable any of the fused services, make sure to disable any other service which relies/depends on the fused service. Otherwise you'll have a constant app crashes, or bootloops etc..

Try taking out your SIM card, your sd card, boot in to recovery, wipe cache, dalvik-cache.. Then try and Reboot in to system. Otherwise if you have no backup, factory reset it. (but that is only when / if all else fails.

No bootloop, I am able to use the phone. Only the location is not getting detected by all apps. No other solution than to reset from recovery?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] CLPose:
I guess that, if you enabled all services, they should be waken up by some apps when needed. But I'm not so sure about that. It did happen to me that some services seem to be "unawakable" after disabling them. :confused: Maybe the OP or someone with more knowledge can enlighten us! :p
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] tanujbatra17:
Yes when I try to enable them back, nothing happens, it just gets the root access but they remain disabled.
