Auto-closing apps in background on Nougat

[Preau]

My Oneplus 3T is autoclosing apps that I am using while running, they are running in the background to give me timing and track my GPS, they are just randomly closed.

I have disabled Aggressive Doze and Auto-close high power apps but it is still happening. Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

Yes, activate the lock (top right / multitasking screen) or flash a custom kernel (like: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...ernel-franco-kernel-r1-28th-november-t3508904) which supports more background apps (limit raised to 60 from stock 32)

Thanks, I didn't know what the lock button was for. I'll try it next time I go running!

hello, does the lock solve the issue, could you please confirm ?

 

[ram4ufriends]

There are some hidden settings which might cause this

1. Apps - Setting - Apps auto-launch . Make sure it's turned off
2. Advanced - Recent app management - Make sure Normal clear is selected.

There is option in setting that close the application as soon you clear it from recent apps ....Setting/system UI/advanced
...Make sure it desabled.....Enjoy your device

I can't find any such setting. Which phone are you using now?

You have to start system UI tuner then you will be able to see this setting that's why

How about battery optimization setting? apps > gear > special access > battery optimization > apps in Not optimized list?

Yeah, I know. There's Doze, Aggressive Doze, and this Battery Optimization.

I'm having the same issue. Tried Franco Kernel and it didn't help.

I have tried locking Pokemon Go and it seemed to be working until today when it was killed in the background and I had to reload.

I'm not sure if this is a PoGo issue or a OnePlus issue.

I have now turned off battery optimisations for PoGo to see how that goes.

So far none of the solutions listed have worked for me. I have same problem with Pokemon Go, Lyft, and Uber. I'm on stock 7.0 not rooted. I tried the Beta 7.1.1 and no difference.

I started my torrent download and i slept as it was downloading in background, but in the morning the download dissappear how to fix this

Same Problem

I'm also having the same problem with PoGo. I can't find this lock button.

I have the same issue with some apps, including PoGo and Firefox and probably Discord (chat application). I bought this device with 6 GB to have not these issues. I'm quite disappointed. The issue occured with Android 6, with what the device was shipped, and with the latest Android 7.1. Maybe it doesn't have 6 GB at all and they did cheat me?

The lock button on the task manager screen does just prevent apps to be swiped away in my opinion.

i have the same issue when playing with pokemon go. very annoying. especially when its connected to my pogo plus. never had an issue with my s7e.

 

[omair2005]

glad i'm not the only one. NPR app closes by itself when I'm listening to it.. I've noticed flipboard closing while i'm using it as well.

Just use a custom kernel, stock one has a limit on 32 max apps open. Other than that the solutions are those given already (Lock icon, disable battery opt for that app, disable doze, etc.)
