New task Manger

Could someone repackage the english version as an IPA file, so that we could just download and install either through cydia, or iTunes.

[rperalta]

Also, the "More" option, can we have it in English too. Thanks!

This is slightly off subject, but I thought I would point out a cool feature of MemTool. I like that you can "clean" (terminate)standard processes or you can terminate individual processes. There is a file called ProcList.xml that maintains a whitelist and blacklist of processes that can or cannot be terminated.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"[]>
<processList version="1.0">
  <blackList>
    <processName>MobileMusicPlaye</processName>
    <processName>MobilePhone</processName>
    <processName>MobileMail</processName>
    <processName>itunesstored</processName>
    <processName>MobileSafari</processName>
    <processName>Cydia_</processName>
    <processName>iRealSMS_</processName>
  </blackList>
  <whiteList>
    <processName>launchd</processName>
    <processName>notifyd</processName>
    <processName>syslogd</processName>
    <processName>lockdownd</processName>
    <processName>configd</processName>
    <processName>update</processName>
    <processName>fairplayd</processName>
    <processName>CommCenter</processName>
    <processName>ptpd</processName>
    <processName>mediaserverd</processName>
    <processName>iapd</processName>
    <processName>BTServer</processName>
    <processName>yellowsn0w</processName>
  </whiteList>
</processList>

The Whitelist controls what process are protected and cannot be terminated. The Blacklist controls what processes are terminated when you click "Clean". Apparently, you can add additional processes to either list depending upon what you want to allow. The ProcList.xml is located in /Applications/MemTool.app.

This is now up on cydia!

After installing MemTool in Cydia. The MemTool application did not appear on the iPhone's desktop. I used BossPrefs and peformed a "Respring and Lock" and this resolved the problem. MemTool works great.

Note: sometimes "Fast Spring" doesn't always display newly installed applications from Cydia or applications installed manually using WinSCP. So, make sure you either reboot or perform a "Respring and Lock".

I installed it last night and used it once to clean the memory but when i woke up this morning my phone was totally shut off and battery was at like 2%. It was fully charged before i went to bed

I know how to un-install it but is there a way to get rid of it all?

MemTool is just an application, it does not remain in memory as a process after closing it. So, it couldn't have run your battery down. I used it few times today to free up memory. I didn't see my battery drop 12 hours later in the manner you described. I connected to my iPhone 3G using SSH terminal and ran the 'ps" command to list all running process.

iDawg:~ root# ps axco pid,command
PID COMMAND
1 launchd
12 mDNSResponder
13 notifyd
14 syslogd
15 configd
17 yellowsn0w
19 ptpd
20 update
21 lockdownd
22 mediaserverd
24 iapd
25 fairplayd
26 SpringBoard
30 BTServer
39 CommCenter
156 MobilePhone
167 sshd
168 -sh
199 ps

MemTool was not listed. There is no doubt from what you described that something ran down your battery, but it wasn't MemTool.

Hey guys, where can I find Memtool on Cydia?
