    But I'm stopping maybe 30..... And are you sure that's the right command, it says "uninstall".....

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    But would this command allow you to create exceptions and only stop specific apps?

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    I'm trying Greenify based on AI recommendation. Perhaps I should always ask it instead of in a forum! It says it's the best thing if I don't root. I need to root to create a swapfile and make Android approach being a proper OS. I'm not prepared to root, too much hassle. Android shouldn't...

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    I'm not going to spend that much on a phone, I can't afford it. There must be RAM managing programs to fix Android's lackings for cheaper older phones. In Windows I can kill off everything except the game. There must be a way to stop Android allowing stuff to just restart. There are...

    Spellchecker doesn't work in a game

    I don't play adventure and puzzle games, could you try to keep up with the conversation?

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    12-16GB, nothing compared to a desktop PC, but usable. But I'm not going to spend 1 to 2 THOUSAND dollars (!!!!????) on a phone! That's more than I paid for my desktop computer, and a third of what I paid for my car!! Meanwhile in reality, most of us are not that rich. Even 2nd hand, 500 to...

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    Why would I want to seduce you, I don't even know what you look like, and why would the admins cater to your warped needs? Perhaps it's you who needs telling off. You're of no use in this thread, I'll talk to the more sensible replies.

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    And as I said, even a top notch mobile has pitiful memory, managed badly by the android "OS". And where did your other two posts go? Or are the forum notifications broken?

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    I call your "It's 2025 people, why are still talking about force closing apps" insulting. You implied I didn't know what I was doing force closing an app, or I couldn't afford as good a phone as you. And I can't even find what I said you might think is insulting.

    My AI tells me this is not written English.

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    Because I have a phone I bought for £40 2nd hand. But I see modern expensive ones still have a pathetic amount of RAM. The game I play (and mobile phones play those now, even though manufacturers don't seem to know they eat RAM!) would like about 5GB. My phone is 4GB. WTF? Come on, get...

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    Motorola G31. HAHAHAHA! Android is like Windows 3 in terms of tech. It closes things you were using silently when you run out of RAM! Windows just uses a swap file and when it's slow you realise you should do something. I played a game only to find Ebay had silently closed, and I missed...

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    Registry doesn't need cleaning. Best thing to save disk space is treesize (which is free), you see the folder taking up the moist space, and you can drill down (not good for the sectors) to find the boggest subfolder, and decide something is full of sh1t or a program you don't need. I do this...

    Spellchecker doesn't work in a game

    Any suggestions? I don't want to have to go through loads! Which is best/most likely to work? Why should it not work within a game? I asked the game (Dustlands) developer and they said they don't impose restrictions on spellcheck. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but of course it is...

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    I bought (and am now asking for my money back!) CCleaner, which only stops apps temporarily! I need to free up RAM or my game crashes a lot. Surely Android must have a way to disable all these apps? In windows I can choose start-up apps, and even have two sets saved so I can start up...

    Spellchecker doesn't work in a game

    I use gboard as a keyboard. In whatsapp, texting, notepad, spelling errors are underlined in red. In the game dustlands, they are not. Does anyone know how spellcheckers, keyboards, and apps, interact in android? I asked the game makers and they said it was up to android to do it.
