Hibernate is a utility that allows users to hibernate selected background processes by utilizing the "killBackgroundProcesses" method internally used by Android. This action differs from killing applications in the system's list of running processes as it enables applications to save their state before exit. Subsequently, when re-entering the hibernated process, it will be restored to its previous state.

This utility proves beneficial for developers who require testing their applications' behavior while being unloaded and re-loaded by the system, as well as for users seeking on-the-fly system optimization.

Please note that Hibernate is not a task killer; it freezes selected tasks, unloads them from operating memory, and prevents further CPU usage while retaining them in the system's list of "running" tasks. The app follows Android documentation guidelines explaining that "running" does not necessarily mean any of the task's code is currently loaded or active; the system may have frozen the task for restart in its previous state upon reactivation. Hibernate instructs the system to freeze selected tasks, allowing them to be maintained in a frozen state.

The application operates without requiring rooting of your device and functions without SuperUser privileges.

Additionally, Hibernate supports a service mode facilitating automatic background hibernation of specified processes. However, it is essential to exercise caution when using the service mode, especially if hibernated processes are self-recreated continuously, as this may lead to battery drain.

The app's service can be configured within the settings dialog, including options to enable or disable service notifications regarding various events.

Users can utilize the Status dialog to manage the list of currently hibernated processes.

If encountering bugs, please reach out via email with detailed information as testing across various devices and Android versions may be challenging. Collaboration to address specific issues is encouraged rather than negative feedback.

It is strongly advised not to hibernate apps installed as widgets on your launcher or lock screen.

Note: On Android 5 and above, active tasks cannot be monitored due to system limitations. Therefore, Hibernate offers an accessibility service that must be manually enabled within system settings for proper functionality.

This app uses Accessibility services.

Since certain Android 5.1.1 builds (around LMY48I, August 2015), Google has impaired Hibernate's functionality by removing access to critical process information through public APIs. While I have implemented workarounds with reduced functionality and potential resource consumption incrementally, these limitations are imposed externally. Please address concerns regarding app performance changes directly with Google or consider alternatives such as refraining from upgrading device software or rooting your device.

Attention: THE APPLICATION WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY IN ANDROID 7 AND BEYOND. GOOGLE HAS DELIBERATELY DISRUPTED ALL PROCESS LISTING METHODS. FOR MORE INFORMATION PLEASE REFER TO https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=205565
