I’ve been trying to disable Game Optimizing Service. First via the menu but it’s still doing stuff in the background logs. I even disabled the packages with game in the name via adb:
com.samsung.android.game.gos
com.samsung.android.game.gametools
com.samsung.android.game.gamehome
com.samsung.gamedriver.sm8250
But this zombie com.samsung.android.game.gos the one called "Game Optimizing Service"magically refuses to stay disabled, and gets enabled again by some watchdog service. It’s not some lightweight service either. Every single time you change focus to a app, this sucker starts doing stuff.
It’s not lightweight either. For example:

That’s all from just 3 seconds browsing reddit.
My log file which only contains about 8 hours has the follow occurrences:
SemGameManager 5866 times
GameManagerService 4458 times
getGamePkgData 2842 times
Your user interface LIES when it says it’s disabled, and I can’t even manually disable it!
Samsung, for the love of GOD, how do I get this stupid service to STAY DISABLED!??!
