I can't believe people still use this in 2013
Son can't be running anything over 4.1 and still think this is necessary.
Wanna clarify for me why its unnecessary?
I'm using a Note 2 so I'm on jb 4.1.2

once i did, but i managed to save everything to my computer on separate occasions.
Try connecting your phone to your computer and it should read your sd card that way.
once your able to back everything up to your computer, format the sd card.
I had to do this several times until neither my phone or computer would read the sd card.
that's when i contacted sandisk and had them replaced.
Hope this helps.

The way Android treats apps in background conflicts with how a task killer will treat an app in the background. They DON'T save battery, its very big misconception that people think a task killer will help prevent the battery from draining. battery conservation is at hardware and OS level an app can't help you with that.

I was researching on how to prolong battery life in the past and those were the solutions that were suggested. I did a search on whether it is good or bad and there were a few mixed reviews here and there.
But thanks for the constructive response, it raised some new questions for me to look into.

And thanks for your nonconstructive response. Very useful information telling me to get an iphone in an android thread.

I think ATK was an option in the past. Now, not so much.

That kills your battery more than anything.

If the Nexus 5 comes to Verizon, probably gonna get that over the iPhone. I have never been dissapointed in the Nexus line.

the lack of aws 1700 support from manufacturerswould cop, especially if it has aws 1700 on board.

Verizon doesn't like Nexus phones. The chance of a Nexus phone appearing on Verizon is slim to none.

this. and if you get it on verizon, you'd better believe you're getting yr old updates. when 5.2 comes out, vzw would just get around to getting 5.0 to you. google aint about that life anymore.

Exactly. Dudes out here slaying VZW when they get an average of 1 bar everywhere. No point in having these nicely specs phones if you can't even get a Damn signal

Hopefully, this phone will likely be my next phone if it does.

Verizon does have great coverage but their prices are rip off.
Will be giving AIO a look when my contract is up.

It is debatable because most of these guys probably live in major populated cities where they are able to pick from almost any carrier and utilize the highest bandwidth possible on the phones.
I grew up on Sprint, but when I went to college, they had no service there, so we switched to VZW. Around my house, they are the best option, but I work in NoVA and go to Richmond a lot, so I could get another carrier since I am on WiFi at home anyways. I just haven't been that unhappy with them and my bill wouldn't be that much different to have me jump ship. I definitely will keep an eye out. I already if I leave, it will be for AT&T and nobody else though.
But yea Advanced Task Killer started off with a ton of hype, but then around 2.0/3.0, reports started coming out that it actually was worse for your phone. If I remember right it is due to the program just killing the apps/widgets/etc in whatever state they were in. Since it didn't gracefully close out the processes/programs, it caused your phone to work harder to essentially "put the pieces back together" (close threads, processes, & system files that were just left open even though they weren't in use)...I think

Of course, typically in my experience you're either in an area where all providers work or only vzw works lol. I remember being in Times Square with my AT&T iPhone 4 and couldn't get on te web
