Help New task manager from Samsung Apps

[snapper.fishes]

Not sure how long it's been up, but Samsung has released a new version of the task manager. Download it from Samsung apps (from your phone). Changes include a new tab called RAM. You can now clear up your RAM according to two levels.

I recommend that you only use Level 1 since level 2 kills some essential apps (like your widgets), meaning that they have to be relaunched again, consuming power and CPU cycles.

Well the first tab is just like your average task killer, except it doesn't allow you to kill background processes. The second tab allows you to uninstall apps without going into settings. The 3rd tab as I said allows you to clear up your RAM by killing apps and background processes. The 4th tab..., well, just click on it.

Btw, it's a widget. So you need to add it to your home screen first.

Yep, it's a great app, those of us that flash the latest firmwares have been using it for a while now.

You can get it if it's listed in your "Samsung Apps" App.
Probably isn't available in your version of the galaxy

It's there in mine. The updated date reads 13 Sep!

[andreami]

people on other forums are reporting that the the Task Manager has reverted back to the old one as well...
looks for all the world like a roll-back for some reason....
R&D on the public for a froyo app maybe?

 

[andy-roid]

Mines still the same

My girlfriend has a galaxy s. She does not need to use a task killer at all, and her phone is always faster than my desire.

Have a read of this: http://www.droid-den.com/android-guides/android-guide-should-i-use-a-task-killer

 

[andy-roid]

the only time i use it is before i charge it up at night

 

[kryzzay83]

I upgraded just then and it's fine. A new tab called ram manage comes up.

Personally, I don't find killing apps an issue at all rather it's the cpu/heavy multi-tasking that makes things lag.

 

[chrisjwild]

I updated mine and it had the ram clean function but after a restart it rrvertrd back to the old version without it.

 

[anoop19b80]

I am also experiancing the same issue, the task manager after reboot goes to old version, And I can not find new version in SamsungApps.

Help me in finding new version and installing it again...

 

[ArmadaTattoo]

I have updated just now. I like the new features. I guess they will only be there until I restart!

 

[snapper.fishes]

Lol mine rolled back too. No solution so far. It's like Samsung is trying tho tease us.

 

[willows]

same problem here

You can uninstall the old Task Manager with Titanium Backup and install the new 1 yourself.

The apk can be found at XDA: Samsung Apps Task Manager update - Page 2 - xda-developers

My RAM clear also disappeared after re-boot, I went to samsung apps online, it said update was available, downloaded and installed it and the ram clear is now back.......
