Abstract
Hibernating an android device includes freezing one or more tasks, processes, drives, data and/or files of open applications, or other RAM data, and creating a hibernation image. A resume image is generated based on the hibernation image. The resume image is stored to disk along with one or more hibernation parameters that are configured to guide Linux to specific memory locations of certain resume image data. Power to both the processor and the RAM storage devices of the android device are then cut off.
