Help Task Manager

[los panda]

i am using the virgin mobile variety; i am not sure if that matters.

i will stop an app from task manager only to see it running again in the near future. is there anything i can do to w/o root?

No. Most apps have auto start permissions built into them. There are various conditions under which they can start. The only way to change these auto start settings is by rooting, you need access to the system files.

there is one way...get rooted,install system tuner and go on a delete app rampage. Some real useless bullsh*t on sense roms that suck battery life. And that includes all custom sense roms fpr one v.

i am ready to go down that road.

i need a trusted source for sdk tools for android; the link (http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Howto:_Install_the_Android_SDK) in the root guide did not contain one for the htc one v. can you point me in the right direction?

The sdk tools aren't device specific.

You can get them straight from google if you prefer

Curtis, Panda: Mind to shed some light on which are the offending apps that can be removed/disabled to increase battery life?

System tuner is fine. I prefer delete the app once for all. Or you can Settings> Apps > Find the app, and sometimes there is a button for disable the app, not all the times, but sometimes. If rooted, uninstall master will clean up system app.

TIA,

bun

i used these 2 lists as guidelines.

if i wasn't sure about a particular app, i froze (using app quarantine root/freeze) it to test before uninstalling (using titanium backup root).
