Is there any way to stop some applications from starting on system startup ? I means not killing them. just don't let them to start.

this depends on what applications they are, some need to start for the phone to work properly
Rom Toolbox Pro has a feature to "enable" or "disable" startup programs and/or apps. For obvious reasons, you'll need to be rooted.

The autostarts app works well for me as a dedicated app. But yes heed caution at disabling system apps. Some are important.

There is this tool called Android Assistant https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.advancedprocessmanager which is not a root tool, but can still block apps during startup.

Hi, I'm just wondering why os services is draining my data so much (I know that mb of data is nothing but this thing is annoying)? I'm using Droidwall which allows network connection only for GG (national communicator) and Opera.

Think that os services includes things like sync so it will use a bit of data, its not 'stealing' it.
Well, they do send some info. The kernel and os send marketing info to millenialmedia's IP for target adds and several other IP (check Droidwall's Log and enjoy a paranoid experience tracking the Ips with google)

yes it does.. if you dont want this to happen.
swtich off the auto sync.. and use pdroid patch and remove network access to the apps that you do not want to access your internet
I had a look at whats running after a re-boot:

Other them Display brightness, Thumb Keyboard, Google Services and Gallery, why are the others running? I imagine that secphone and Samsung Push Service are required to make the phone work and have my mail pushed. Gps Navigator shows restarting all the time until I turn in on then goes in process. What of those should be frozed as I dont use them at leased for now unless other app are using them.
Those are system apps which are meant to be run by default. If you close most of them, your phone might not function properly like lets say when you get an email or a message, the notification will not be shown if they are force stopped.
Yes, I agree, some apps like Samsung Apps, Maps...etc keep running when you hardly use them.
If its still a pain for u to have these apps running, Use Root Explorer to freeze/Uninstall those apps or just add ".bak" extension to the apk incase if you will ever need these apps.

Hi.
I've been using LastPass and the fill in helper for ages now.
Just the other day it has started sowing it's logo in the notification tray but at times when there aren't even log ins for it to fill in.
Any ideas why or how to get rid?

I do not have it yet but it seems you are running a newer version.
Go to Settings > App > Lastpass and uncheck the notification icon.
Unchecking the notification option in Settings will guarantee that you'll never see it again, even when you need it. Careful.

Did you find an option to uncheck in the settings? I'm still on the old version...
Yes, there's quite a few fill helper settings and you can disable. I wouldn't mind if it was there at the right times but often it's not is won't be there when you do want it!
Anyone ever seen this update window appear? Is it safe? Is it spam from an unsafe installed app?

It's an update for MIUI's "app vault". It's safe.

Excellent. Thank you very much.

I really hate the vault, so limited in function to a point that it's useless.
Luckily it can be turned off by going through Settings -> System & Device -> Home Screen & Recents -> App Vault
(just in case it hasn't been noticed.)
Hello,
Anyone knows an app alternative to Tasks 1.3.4? I am still using it but developers stopped updating it.

The best tasks app that ever was, I'm starting to have issues, Google is blocking on one phone and I can't add new lists on others. Veg disappointing
@HenryHvPa What do you not like about Google Tasks?
I like the ability to quickly enter, indent, move multiple items too other lists, without entering dates or any other extra data
The kiss principle..keep it simple

Google made some changes how apps access Google Account. I remember going to security tab and creating new password for every app separately. Did you try it? I don't remember why I didn't continue with it.
