Sultan- your app is amazing! If you ever decide to add a lock/unlock feature-I would be in heaven. I have PatternLock and also tried the Slide to unlock one and none play well with my Torch 9850. Due to some ligament damage in my thumb- using the lock button on the top is very difficult.
the problem is i cant test a lock feature properly cause my phone is BES protected (With a force password after 10 min)
thats why i still haven't made a screen lock feature. maybe i will get an extra phone and try in the future
Thanks Sultan for this latest improvement (v.14)! Perhaps someone could suggest appropriate settings for the Device Optimizer? I'm using the ones in the above screenshot ...

it depends on your usage and number of background applications running, however, i would recommend:
Is there anyway to review what the Device Optimizer has cleaned up? No worries if not.
yes, its simple
for 1st option ( it will popup)
for 2nd option just open event logger (now using iLaunch) and see the first log event time
for 3rd, open options>device>application management, and check memory consumption of apps , or check Event logger (since GC happens as the last step in optimization, it will add a GC event in the logs )
I figured it out! It's for having the vibrate feature when you use your screen or keyboard lol. Now how I got that option, no clue lol
Sent from my BlackBerry 9900 using the Crackberry forums app!
lool,
ok, it is under "operating Systems utilities", its the "keypad Vibration" feature, you can turn it on or off, but make sure you have version 14.0
you can turn the feature on and off, or place a toggle menu item in all menus, configure it the way you like, but for easy and quick access use iLaunch feature (its unbelievably powerful and useful ) to access all Adv OS & LED menus and toggle features in one screen
Does the GC method in the app force objects to be recycled by the GC or does it just initiate an OS level GC?
im about to sleep, however i will answer your question first
Java does not allow apps to access memory directly, therefore no app can force Objects to be GC, not even if the Objects belongs to the app itself. The OS takes care of this, however the OS does it when it feels its running out of memory ( and few other cases).
so my app, clears some extra temporary storage at first, then forces the OS to claim any Memory (which is no longer referenced in any app) that needs to be flushed from your device's RAM (including the extra temporary storage which just got cleared).
there is only 1 GC method in JAVA, so all optimization apps can only use this method

Okay cool so it invokes the GV method so that the OS can do its thing.
That's fine - I was going to say it wouldn't be so good if you forced objects to move in to earlier generations in order to force them to be GC'd
Excellent app... I'm not sure what else you can add to it tbh :|
What about wifi-cell tower functionality? Wifi turns on and off depending on whether you are in range of a pre-set cell tower.
I was actually gonna ask for this turning wifi of when not connected to a network, I have an app that does this but to have it intergrated with this would be cool so I can delete the other app
