Question Kill unnecessary background services

I have written an app for the Kindle to display some information.
To reduce the number of charging times(save power consumption), I want to stop all unnecessary background services.
Is there a way to list all background services on the Kindle and kill unnecessary ones?

this is command to see ALL packages.

Get some inspiration from koreader.sh script inside koreader folder.

kill packages (via killall or stop) one by one to make sure you are not killing processes needed for your use case.

c.f., https://github.com/koreader/koreader...le/koreader.sh
Line 69 for the list, and Line 284 for when they are stopped.

In KOReader, they are resumed after koreader exits.
