Hi,
Although I have red all the relevant posts, in XDA, I can not come to a final conclusion "Which is better".
So I have installed all four of them.
So my Samsung I9100 has the following task killers:
Go
Auto Killer Memory
System Tuner pro
+
ROM Toolbox
+
Titanium Backup Pro
I Thing it is too much.
Any Advice what to through away would be helpful for me.
Your post seems to boil down to what is the best task killer. If that is the question you're asking, remove all of them and don't look back.

Thanks for the immediate reply,
Ok, Task killing is one of my thoughts, but Titanium Backup and System Tuner Pro and ROM Tool have many other uses and some of them do task killing.
all of task killers r killers themselfs.....so if u need data+sys apps backup than titanium is wat i use,allthough there r otha similiar apps too in market for free...my personel exp is there is no proper app to save batt and task manger tht do tht cause a logic they run in background...install betterbatterystats to see wats draining ,very usefull......cheeeerz

So you propose to through away the task killers?
Perhaps a silly question how the system deals with the tasks without a task killer?

Do a search with your favourite search engine for "android task killers". Read and understand the results.
TB for backup and freezing .
Task Killer not required it is Android not Windows .
But if you think you need a task killer stick with the four of them and be dead as can be .

Ok,
I Understood that
. task killers are not necessary
. Titanium Backup remains (either way it was my decision)
What about System Tuner Pro and ROM toolbox?
Is it Ok to keep both or.....?

Well, there is a whole philosophy about using task killers on Android phones. If the device has good resources (battery, RAM, processor) it's not so useful but for mid- or low-range devices someone have to think about using one. I used Advanced Task Killer on Eclair and Froyo, without battery issues or other troubles. I use it manually, after using some other applications, when they remain in RAM, inactive but increasing the lag of the phone. I kill also the Advanced Task killer after using it. And after that the phone is more responsive... That's my experience with task killers.
hi
Thanks but today when i used the same my phone network had problem ie no network had to remove app reload my sim to get it working wat did i do wrong

What I recommend:
best:upgrade to froyo and just use the built in taask manager
good:if you feel like you dont want to flash a beta firmware then:
do not use kill all, do not use automatic killing (kill manually).
kill only processes from apps that you know were opened.
in advanced task killer (if you use that) do not put low security, high or medium. if you are going to use another task killer put a similar option if available (less processes will be shown)
Oh, and yeah, kill the task killer after killing apps

I used advanced task killer. Search it up on the market
what is the best working auto task killer? I have tried several and now using advanced task killer but there is always some apps. that keeps on running and autostarting (market, settings etc...)
The best auto killer is to NOT use one. Let Android itself handle memory management.

I tried this for a few days but I still think we need some sort of auto task killer for at least selected applications. I don't know any other way to close opera mobile and some other applications then with task killer, and if I leave then in the background phone becomes very laggy.
now i get it...i'll have watchdog ^^
Hy, I have an xperia s 0.73 firmware.
I dont know why, i have everytime opened new aplications in the task killer, and in settings (runing services), i close them, but in a few seconds ar opened again! Like musik player, email, office suite, liveware manager, etc .....
What can i do?
I use advanced task killer, but i think thats not ok to open aplications itselfs.
(Sorry for my english)
Theres a lot of programs built into the Sony that you cannot remove without gaining root access.
You can go to settings/applications/manage applications and the you can remove some of the programs but not all.
yes i know there are o lot of aplications, i dont want to remowe them, just to to someting, to the phone, to not open the aplications itself!!
Liveware will always work cuz its required for hadsets, speakers etc

Are you new to Android? I had this same confusion when I first moved to Android.. Because it runs on a Linux basis it works differently..
2 things to consider.
1, Android will hold programmes in memory but in a suspended state, not using any resources until they are called for from the kernel.
2, with Linux based OS empty memory is wasted memory. (refer to point 1 above!)
Don't try to kill things that the phone need to have running in the background it will waste resources and battery!

ies i'm new.

So i recommand to remove tjhe task killer?
If your device is rooted, you may try install apps like autostarts
Task killers are ok.. But you only need to use it to kill apps which are causing problems (usually just apps which you have installed rather than any preinstalled or system apps)
And generally a bad idea to use any auto kill apps.. Avoid that!

You just have to live with that unless you are willing to root your phone then use titanium backup to freeze the app. My xps is less than a month old so I just let them be for now because I dont want to root it just yet. There is plenty of ram and does not affect the speed of the phone.

+1 to that. I only use a task killer to get problem apps out of memory sometimes. As a rule android is very good at managing memory.
These things will always start and it usually means the apps stay up quicker.

In addition to that, it doesn't take more or less battery power if the memory is full or empty.
Killing apps and starting them however does take battery power.
OK, THANKS!
I understand.
I thinking about, that open apps are influencing the battery life. But now its clear!
So no auto task killer.
Thanks again!

You can use Smart RAM Booster, i used it on my Galaxy SL and it worked perfectly, also works on SGS3. You can also set a time to auto-kill the apps and clear cache.
Search it on Play Store, there's a free version if you want to try it.
Hope it helped

i don't think it's advisable to use any task killers for our android.. but if you insist, you can try what the guy above me suggested. also, if you are annoyed with some constant stock apps running on the background, you can use Titanium Backup to freeze those apps
I hope this helps cheers

Task killers are evil, and often degrade performance and battery life. As suggested previously freeze or uninstall apps that are continually running in the background.

try app quarantine it would work...
Try advanced task killer, theres a pro version also and another thing is android has its own task killer, its actually bad to use app killers cause when you try to launch the app all the data has to be pulled from the device again and it takes a little longer than normal...:good:
no..
nope bro...
try on task killer applications....
greenify is using for up to 3.0 to 4.2
