Samsung apps: Task manager

See there's another new Samsung app... a task manager.
Have installed and it's pretty nice...

weird it's not showing up in America
are you on Euro ROM ?
i make it a daily habit of checking for new freebies from Samsung Apps

I discovered what I assume to be the samsung Task Manager when I flashed to JM5 /Samset 1.9e. The icon is a little computer tower with a pie chart next to it. Think it came wired into JM5, since its on my second app page WAY before anything that came in Samset.
Honestly speaking, I wouldn't trust it. Not because its a bad app or anything, but in my experience its clunky and slow and uses a lot more RAM than my other task manager, and it can only see actual apps, not services, and finally it doesn't show 'RAM Remaining' it just will tell you (234mb/326mb) which I find to be annoying. If I could get rid of this I would but I can't find its .APK.

They are talking about an update within the Samsung Apps application. Yes, every ROM does have the task manager but this is an update.
I don't understand why you find the RAM display annoying; it shows you how much RAM is not in use. Isn't that 'RAM Remaining' or am I not understanding something?
What do you find clunky about it? The interface seems simple enough and it seems to load everything instantly when ever I press a new tab. I wouldn't use the widget personally since you can just press 'Back' on your phone (multiple times) to exit an application and it won't appear in the task list while giving you your RAM back.

I have had to do 2 factory resets and I am sure it is down to the update for task manager (Android 2.2 firmware). It causes the phone to go into a continuous FC loop on startup just after the big S screen. Can anyone else confirm this on theirs as well please?

I'm honestly more interested in an app that kills all those damn Samsung auto started apps that I never use, but just hovers in the background taking up RAM.
Anyone know of such an app?

yup it was there, now it has been taken off it seems.

Yeah, in the UK... It's not showing in the Samsung Apps anymore but it's installed and seems to work ok, not had any issues since installing it.
After reading various articles on task killers and Android I've stopped using them anyway. Just find this useful for seeing how much space I've got for apps...

i think they figured out many people were complaining about it after the upgrade
possibly a bug that escaped QA

O.K. I have tested exhaustively and can confirm that on my unlocked UK SGS running Android 2.2 as installed via Kies this app 1.14 definitely is the cause of my problems. To reiterate. The phone works OK untill re-start at which point it gets to the big S logo gives a longish vibration and then after about twenty seconds gives two longing'ish vibrations the logo fades and the screen stays blank with the vibrations continuing every 20 seconds or so. I think it is called a "closed loop".
Reinstalled everything and completely set up the same way without this update and everything is perfect. Even have a stereo FM radio :-D

I a noob, where do you go to look at samsung apps?? this is done straight from the phone?

Yes, this is done by the 'samsung apps' app
which comes pre-installed on your phone.

Thanks, I guess my phone did not come with that app (got the Vibrant from Tmo). I can download this app somewhere?

downloaded it yesterday
2.1 stock no probs so far

Mate, the issue is only on the Froyo beta that leaked about 3-4 days ago , so happens on 2.2 only ! IT relates to the pre-built task manager and its 1.1.14 (or whatever) update that appeared on Samsung apps.
I do confirm that IT causes issues sending the phone in continious FC loop, so DO NOT INSTALL IT !
I had to do hard reset last night after installing it. Phone worked great until I decided to reboot. Then it just sat on the "S" and in a few the screen went dark with the phone vibrating every 10-20 secs and touch keys lit.
See posts #5,#10 from Tehpriest - I had the same thingy going on last night and I know of two more ppl having the same

Yes I can cconfirm its deffo not for the 2.2 Froyo that appeared earlier.
I've been through the loop of flashing back to basics and restoring the SGS twice in 8 hours. Teach me not to read about stuff before I hit install.

2 mango niggles - Otherwise perfect

Other than these 2 niggles, I gotta say my HD7 with Mango is near perfect...
As I said, niggles... Not complaints or faults...
1. To fully exit an app you hit the back button. To keep it live and available to be jumped back into you hit the home key... Only issue? If you want to fully exit an app, but the back key in the app has another fuction like web browsing, you sometimes have to hit the back key 10+ times to fully exit...
2. When the home screen is fully scrolled to the bottom, the people live tiles pictures resets blank...

Oh, wow, because you sure have to freaking close the apps all the time. Or people will see your midgets porn?
I have several flaws to blame. But making a topic cursing the OS because you need to close the apps and its dificult to press the back button, and worse, the "People live tile resets blank". Seriously?! Does that bother you so bad?

The guy is entitled to post his opinions

There's really no need to exit a program fully unless it's actually a program that runs in the background (which will use your battery correct?). Else, just leave the browser.
If you're really going to be anal about exiting the browser, just go the browser tabs and hit the X. Now if you hit back it'll exit...
Like he said

Just stuff that bothers him, we all have something...

Having to press back to close apps does annoy me a bit. I know i technically don't need to but personally I just like having a clean multi task menu.
OCD ? maybe... just personal preference and the guy and myself are entitled to opinions. No need to get so angry about it.

So far...I've yet to even bother closing the application.
I just keep pressing the HOME key and I rarely get any problems.
By the way, how do you get rid of the Music Menu once you've started it? For example, when I press the volume up, I see the music track there with pause, play, etc. I don't see the music app running in the multi-task menu.
Anyway to exit out of that?

No need to get so angry about it.
I find topics like this helpful for me making a decision of when is the right time to return to WP7. It may not be a bug (the back button) but it's good for me to know what to expect shoudl I return.
I wouldn't have thought having the browser left open would be an issue but thanks for highlighting the porn, that might cause an issue.

Things that really niggle with mango.
1. Pressing the unlock button and there being a delayed animation for alerts and the date to come up, this was not present in nodo and really annoys me.
2. The jump tiles for apps. I think it looks really ugly, maybe if they were filled in tiles rather then the outlines it my be more aesthetically. Personaly i liked the serach system in symbian s60 5th where it was a jump to but the jump to would dynamicly change as you spelt a name out.

I have a few annoyances.
1.) Can't navigate to previously opened pages after closing IE. The back button turns into closing the app instead of previous page.
2.) Now this one is HUGE for me. All number fields should show up in the predictive text or be flagged as textable. I have multiple contacts who have work cell phone's as well and multiple businesses where the number is a cellphone. It's extremely annoying when I start to type the name and i get no results.
Another example is with voice commands "Text Frank Smith" i get no option to text the Work cell phone even though our entire conversation thread is from his work number and there has never been a text sent or received from his Mobile number.
Other business contact with the Work number only have no option to text the contact. I either have to hit the plus sign and scroll down or go to the contact and scroll left to history and click one of the previous text's.

Um. You know... there is this thing called Prozac. It worked wonders for me!
If you look at the topic: 2 mango niggles - Otherwise perfect. That hardly sound like a scathing criticism. Maybe you are being a little defensive?
Mango does have issues, but remember people use phones differently and never come across certain useability issues.

Yeah, it can bother, but would you create a topic to speak how bad is Mango because it resets the People Tile? I noticed it too, but it make your experience worse?
Apps in background DO NOT consume your battery. It's not in background in first place. It is "frozen" in memory. So there is no need to close (using the back button) the apps. Unless you really want to close for whatever reason.
Something that really bothers: not resuming app when opening toast notification. You just cant chat with someone else if not by MSN or Facebook, because it turns to be frustrating.

That's me for sure... I only leave something available to jump back to if I know I'm going to be needing it in that same day, else, I fully exit...
Perhaps I should experiment one day and not close a thing and just try and get comfortable with it...

There is a very valid reason to want to close apps using the back button. If you don't close them that way, they consume one of the (arbitrarily limited) 5 cards in the app switcher. If an app is one that you know you won't need to go back to any time soon, it makes no sense to waste a card on it, especially since Microsoft decided that we didn't need the ability to remove cards from the switcher.

When I updated to Mango, I had this problem. For another reason I hard-reset my phone and this bug has disappeared now for me.

Exactly that. If there are 2 or 3 apps i'm using at once i like to have a clean multi-task card to switch between. Once i'm done i close them all.

New recalled Note 7 - Issues with Media/Lag/Wifi/Heat

Hey all,
I'm becoming increasingly frustrated with my Note 7 (recall replacement one).
1. It lags like HELL! I've done all the animation scaling off/force GPU rendering etc, but I shouldn't have to. Just a simple thing like pulling down the notification bar noticeably lags every couple of times.
2. I use Android Auto, which I always have to reconnect manually to use (never did on the S7).
3. When listening to Spotify over Android Auto, I occasionally get stutter/glitches in the sound. Once the glitch was so bad the phone froze and it had to be reset.
4. The thing gets hot. Annoyingly hot, even if I'm just browsing Chrome, or reading G-mail etc. It's not like I'm gaming!!
5. WiFi is very sporadic. The connection is rock solid, but often it will be downloading an app...sit at 100% of download and progress no further. This happens quite frequently.
With all the above, (bar number 2), none of it applied to the pre-recalled Note 7.
I'm frustrated to say the least. Does anyone else get any of this whatsoever? I can't go through not having a phone again, or sending this for what Samsung will insist on a repair. This phone is jinxed and I'm gutted.
Any suggestions (bar a hard reset haha) will be greatly received.
PS. I have disabled loads of apps with the AppDisabler to try and help it along but I think there's an issue with the RAM or some of the internal modules (at a guess). Thanks all

I have just managed to reduce the lag quite a bit by uninstalling Samsung Good Lock (which was forced upon me earlier today)! I liked it, but serious lag creation!

Did you use Smart Switch to change phones? I've found quite a few apps don't like to be transferred. Android Auto apps don't move right via Smart Switch and I had to uninstall/reinstall them.
Be careful what you disable. Some of Samsung's seemingly benign system apps are called by other apps and if they don't respond are constantly polled. That could cause a lot of background processes and may be a source of your overheating. My pre-exchange phone did what you're describing the first couple of days after I set it up. It would maybe once or twice a day get blocky when scrolling as if something was running in the background. The (U.S.) PH1 update made it go away. But we're S-820 in the U.S. and I think you guys are Exynos. So different problems different solutions.

Thanks for your reply Barry. Actually not Smart Switch, but I let it restore my 100+ apps from my previous Note 7 (near the end of the initial set up). The apps were downloading but strangely, every so often nothing was happening after they'd reached 100% downloaded, just before "installing..." (over WiFi). I cancelled that specific app and the restore continued (this happened over and over). Turning WiFi on and off sorted it temporarily but I couldn't download more than 3/4 without this really strange issue.
I also observed the longest lag ever! I went into the OS update screen, pressed update and the device didn't respond. 5 mins later while doing something completely different, the update screen popped up about 12 times (as I'd pressed it 12 times 5 mins previously). This happened again after a reboot too!
Now, I've just bitten the bullet and performed a hard reset. This time the WiFi seems great, although now I'm speculating that it was getting stuck at 100% post download perhaps because the security thing was having trouble scanning it for malware prior to install.
I also take your note re:disabling stuff! I'm going to do something unheard of and just try it stock for a bit and see how it goes. For such amazing hardware, the fact my note 3 was running 10 times smoother means something drastic is going on. I hope this hard reset is the end of it!

Chances are the hard reset won't do anything, though I hope you have better luck than I did. I went through three phones (on my 4th). I did the hard reset as soon as I picked up the 2nd handset and onward before I did anything with the phone. Sadly you should not have to disable anything, the phone should just work for 900.00. Some will say otherwise.. Wi-FI is good for me but the reception is garbage. On various phones with T-MO including other android devices that colleagues have - they get 4/5 bars and usually double the download speed on Speedtest. The head I had on the first I don't get as bad on this one. But the lag I do...
Did you get the update from your provider as well?

I just picked up my replacement Sprint Note7 today so not much time with it though seems identical except 1 small issue. I had my first Note 7 rooted, Viper4Android and Dolby Atmos flashed along with Xposed and it worked flawlessly. The replacement Note fails with binary invalid using the exact same odin version, Sun7 systemless root etc that I have on my pc from the first Note 7 and the second Note 7 was given to me not updated, in other words its on the exact same firmware as the first one!
I am very proficient with rooting, adb, etc and this has me baffled.
Has anyone successfully rooted a replacement N930p that came with PH9? using freeza's guide?

Yea disabling seems like a great idea at first but it actually creates problems. I run it completely as is except uninstalling the preloaded games. Didnt disable anything. Disabling stuff caused massive lag on my note 5 and same with note 7.

Thanks chaps.
I've gotta say, the hard reset has made the world of difference. Which to me is strange, I've never had to hard reset a new device, but it's done the trick.
Regarding the disabling of services, there must be *some* that are safe to disable? I agree if you're tinkering with potentially integral things like S-Voice it's not a good idea. But then stuff like OneDrive surely that's okay? Maybe, things like the Disabler package are a bad plan. You can disable software by default without it, but only certain apps. Maybe that's why Samsung prevent the disabling of certain bloat...?

That's cool. I have no interest in Gear VR.

I have heard somethings about latest version of chrome causing batt drain, could possibly contribute to lag also, I cant tell much as I am expecting my note 7 exchange, but I have seen some posting about it

Have no problems when I used package disabler and chose "disable all bloat"...but after doing that, I looked through the list and enabled around 3 to 5 that I thought didn't need disabling.
No problems since.
Oh...that option doesn't disable facebook, messenger, hangouts etc. So if you don't use those, you need to add them.

Thanks all. Well, after all that, and a hard reset my phone is running perfectly again. Then, this morning I received this from Oculus...
"We recently pushed an Oculus Software update that has inadvertently caused some people to experience phone performance issues."
I haven't put my phone into my Gear VR since the hard reset and I can almost guarantee it was that blimmin thing. Samsung have also updated their Good Lock app to remove lag yesterday!
Damn you Oculus!

Oh..and strangely, the first few hours I got the phone..it got pretty hot...especially since I was using it while charging. I turned off fast charging and no difference. Anyways I just cooled it down w the aircon now and then.
Long story short, it doesn't get hot anymore.
Maybe it's because I used package disabler snd greenify...but whatever I do...Even while charging..it barely gets warm...

Yea they always get very hot for the first few hours while installing all the new apps! I'm not sure you need Greenify these days do you, since android tends to close apps that are not in use (giving you the same options as Greenify)?

This. I just spent two days doing that and its like a totally different phone. I started a thread highlighting my experiences.

i am quite annnoyed with the lag too. it's nothing too bad, but there's noticeable keyboard lag, and whenever you go into settings to search for something, it takes like two seconds to load. i don't even think this is a case by case situation here, this phone just isn't as fast as a oneplus 3, lg g5 or iphone 7 plus. again, it's not terrible, it's just not the fastest or smoothest.

Low FPS on games after One UI 2.1 update

I'm playing Call of Duty Mobile and I've been experiencing frequent FPS drops from time to time while playing BR mode after the recent One UI 2.1 update which is quite annoying. Anyone else experiencing this? I was able to do a factory reset, yet the problem still persists. Any solutions? Thanks in advance.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/s10-plus/how-to/120-hz-refresh-rates-galaxy-s10-note-10-t4077139

Ui 2.1 may well, be the worst update experience ever!
Yep, I am experiencing very poor gaming on my 10 + unlocked, snapdragon variant. I've owned every note released. This one was by a lot my favorite one, after the note 7 debacle. That phone was a beautiful phone, before its time (apparently).
Ever since ui 2.1 I can hardly stand to play my pubg. I play every day, have since season 2. A couple hours every night. There is a very obvious frame rate decline, and major lag. I've tried all the typical dev options tweaks but it doesn't work. Nothing does. I've cleared cache partition, repaird the game, uninstall/ reinstall and nothing. I'm irritated to say the least.
I also HATE the keyboard. I want my stuff back! Setting up a phone to be the way you want it takes a long time. Erasing my predictive text learned words, and shifting my keyboard? Come on! Not cool. My hands muscle memory is having a hard time adjusting, becoming very slow to type. I text A LOT for work, and now I know it seems I can't spell for crap! Lol. Anyway I hope we can get this garbage fixed soon! Good luck!

Hey guys, I'm just curious if anyone has had any luck finding a fix of some sorts. Pubg Mobile is not running like it was before this stupid update. It's just so disappointing to pay over a grand for a phone so you can play a game on it and have Samsung screw it up with an update.
I tried everything you did as well, and no improvement. Is there any chance of being able to roll this back?

I think that the last firm with ui 2.0 had a bootloader 2, the firm with ui 2.1 has a bootloader 3, so, no roll back

One ui 2.1 is still TRASH!
No fix insight i guess. I've tried everything I know how to. I've tried all suggestions, and anything logical, but nothing makes it better. My pubg time at night is going on pause until this gets resolved, I can't suffer ranking down anymore! :crying:

for most stuff it isn't terrible on my unlocked UK Note 10+ 5G, but I use lawnchair and using the lawnfeed google feed or the google thing on the home home screen the frame rate can drop that low it practically locks the phone up leading to me having to force close all apps and wait a few seconds for the phone to get back to the home screen and let me use it.
in most other apps it's a couple of seconds delay on load at worst, but the google apps through lawnchair seem to lock the phone up.
so for me One UI 2.1 added nothing apart from inconvenience when I try to check the google feed. hope they fix it soon. hell I would be happy if they just reverted to the base Android UI.

No fix insight i guess. I've tried everything I know how to. I've tried all suggestions, and anything logical, but nothing makes it better. My pubg time at night is going on pause until this gets resolved, I can't suffer ranking down anymore! :crying:

I feel your pain...I've literally had to create a 2nd account to play on until this gets fixed so I don't destroy my stats...and it sucks.
I remember standing at the att store debating the Pixel 4 xl and this...needless to say, I'm not thrilled with my choice.

Question Freezing for a Few Seconds Since Last Update?

Anyone else have their Fold 3 keep on freezing for a few seconds at times, ever since the last update? It has done it when using Facebook Messenger via Chat Heads, opening the list of open apps (via the three lines button ||| ) to switch/close an app, Facebook app, Samsung Browser, tapping the back button, and possibly other times. Really annoying!

My screen will go blank when I close a app sometimes. The screen is powered on but all my app icons won't be there. Just the background.

I've had this issue since I got the device. It happens whenever I unfold the device from using the outer screen and it's not an immediate switch, it takes a couple seconds like it hangs. And I've tried 6 different launchers and tons of different apps and nothing changes it. I've debloated my device as much as I can without losing the functionality I need and followed the oneui optimization guide with a bunch of adb commands to make it better and I've had no luck BUT my battery life is amazing and the overall performance is good so I'm at a loss.

Oh, that's an odd one! I haven't had that one happen. It was getting frozen right after the opened app view came up, so I couldn't swipe an app closed or switch to another one right away.
Thankfully, the phone seems to be working better now after I reset the phone earlier, so here's hoping it stays that way.

I don't use the front screen much, so only have done that switch a few times over the year plus I've had the phone. I think it does take a second or two to switch, but not too bad since you're getting it set in your hands anyway, IME.

Okay, well it still does the freezing thing, but not as bad as it did before the reboot. I'd report it to Samsung, but their customer service can't understand English so can't understand problems correctly. I have an issue with scrolling screenshots not saving and they told me to reset my app settings, including network settings, and I separately gave a suggestion for the Bubbles feature to be able to open Bubbles (for texting) instead of waiting for that person to text me, and they told me to reset my network settings.
