How do I kill background running apps
I want to be able to kill certain apps that hang, for instance Ebuddy XMS is closed with the swipe down, but sometimes stills draining my battery in a few hours because of a bug and remains running in the background.
I want to be able to kill apps still running in the background. Is there some sort of app/task killer? |
Re: How do I kill background running apps
use terminal? maybe? kill -9?
"Some programs just like to run backround... like cars like when someone drives and houses when someone living in..." |
Re: How do I kill background running apps
install htop
or use ps aux and kill -9 and learn linux terminal. |

Re: How do I kill background running apps
What bother to install htop when top will do?
Why bother with top, when you can grep the ps -ef output? The OP seems to have already concluded that his ebuddy XMS program is failing to close all the way. If that's true then why not type something like: ps -ef | grep -i ebud Then just kill -9 the resulting pid. No extra software installation required. |
