Hi folks.

Just looking for pointers on profiling / debugging / ending live test samples on the Nexus One. This is my first time using an Android based phone and I had noticed that there isn’t a simple one button task manager that allows you kill off apps running in the background.

Obvoiusly there’s probably a slew of ways to do this programmaticly or by using some ‘Task killer’ app in the Market shop. I’d then thought it sure be nice to hear any tips and tricks people are using for android hardware testing in a broader sense.

Stop running games or apps.

Settings → Applications → Manage applications → running → select apps → Force stop

Create one button shortcut…

Touch hold empty spot in background to bring up menu → select Shortcuts → select Settings → select Manage Applications

Now you only have to touch the shortcut icon to access and stop apps running at will.

I use adb shell kill command on r00ted devices.
And adb shell ps or adb shell top for listing active processes.

I find it easiest to just install Advanced Task Killer (Free) from Market. Has a one click kill-all apps button too which is handy to make sure I am clean when testing new builds.
