Would that mean by doing the "manual update" you wouldn't be recieving the 11 other apps being pushed?
I have no idea. I think the apps are buried in the update somewhere so I would assume that manual or OTA you are going to get the same thing. I also think that the only way to remove the bloatware is to root the phone but in my instance my daughter does not want to do that so I am trying to find a way to disable the apps she does not want.
No, she shouldn't. Usually causes more problems than not... And using it the right way (even if there is a way that is considered right) doesn't make a huge difference at all.
You were holding it wrong?
Thanks
But no seriously, task killers don't do much extra. People try to make a difference just so they can say differently, subconsciously or not. Many MANY people on this forum never use a task killer and get better life than I do.
But 99% of the time, people either do it excessively or don't exclude apps so most reopen when they are killed. Excluding the ones that reopen or using another app to stop them helps if you are going to use a task killer (I mean, who am I to stop you). But most of the time apps are just sitting in memory and not using battery. Yes, there is the one bad app that can be constantly running in the background, but then an app like that is another story.
With Androids built in Task and Process Managment System a Task Killer is not needed, the reason it hurts your battery life is because the system has to work harder to manage tasks because the third party Task Killer is working against it. On your device applications don't actually run in the background, they are *frozen* until you open that process again
The best way to see this in action is to get an interactive live wallpaper and interact with it...a lot, then open an application and take note of what your live wallpaper is doing when you open the app, leave the app open for ten minutes and then press home and your LWP will be exactly where it was when you were interacting with it ten minutes prior
Thanks for the detailed responses guys, and opening up my eyes!
No problem
Btw, most of the things I do to save battery require root access, like setting up profiles to lower the clock speed while the screen is off, and such. Other than that, I don't do much at all.
