YES, you need a task killer app for the Eris. PERIOD.

If this thread weren't off the rails before it sure is now!

We have nearly 10 inches already here in Columbus. Supposed to have 14 by morning. I grew up in NE Ohio and still have Browns tickets. I don't miss the lake effect.

i lived in nc the last 3 years and come back home to this....:rolleyes:

i didnt miss the lake effect either :p
 
Then I suggest that you look closer to home for the source. You both owe danielevans83 an apology. :mad:

If insults are your criteria for owing somebody an apology, then you'll be forthcoming in tendering one to me, "slug." <---- perfect user name? :D
 
I uninstalled Advanced Task Killer last night just to see what would happen to my battery life. My battery life increased by about 1%. As uninstalling it probably won't increase battery life, it has certainly saved me from wasting my time every 2 hours using Advanced Task Killer. I know now how to properly exit out of Apps except for some. Just my experience.

Between that and the opposite opinions of ATK being related in here, I'm getting quite certain that it's one of those applications that some will never have a use for and others might find useful.

One guy posted that it will be included in 2.1. I find that very interesting.

coming from a vogue running 2.1 :D, there is a process killer preloaded in the build
 
Not an actual configurable app?

not from what i remember.....didnt really use it much...it just let you kill any process you wanted from what i do remember. It would be the same as killing a running process through adb



anyways my vogue crapped out so i bought an eris:D
 
Im sorry but we are not here to troll. We are here to explain WHY the Eris lags so much and provide a reasonable solution to alter this.

Im sorry but I have to say it again, and this is a FACT, the Eris LAGS more than normal once it reaches around 30mb of memory. There is no denying this. I have owned an Eris since it was released and two of my friends each have one. They are all the same with the same lag.

All of us found that task killer apps DO resolve the lag created by lack of memory. The solution was simple. Dont let your eris reach = or > 30mb. With task killer apps running we dont have to worry about our apps that we use not having enough memory to run smoothly and we dont have to worry about manually closing apps all the time.

I dont know why ~30mb is the "magic number" it just IS.

Task killer apps are a win-win situation. I have not noticed any significant battery life drain due to running task killer apps.

Can you provide a video showing us this lag?
 
I guess slug didn't think it silly. He gave me an infraction for the door comment.

Me, too.

The irony is that until I got the PM from slug I had no idea he was a moderator here. :o Not funny.

a-HEM: listen up folks, especially the fellow who I and RC Addict intimated was using another account to shore up an argument, I apologize. Really.

Especially to slug who spotted it all and was being a good cop here. Sorry. And sorry this thread got messed up with all this.. hopefully it will just carry on to the interesting subject at hand.
