Does anyone know how to prevent Facebook from running in background on Android phone.
On Redmi 1S no matter what I do it keeps coming back and hogs 50MB of RAM.

As a last option I plan to uninstall the same, however before that checking if there's any remedy, pl. help. Thx.

Disable it from Settings >> Apps >> Facebook Properties

Root it. hibernate it using greenify and remove it from startup using ES Task Manager.

Download titanium backup and freeze it.

Freezing and unfreezing is tedious and time consuming task. That's why hibernating them is a better option.

And try opening and closing facebook app..
