[Q] set CPU app repeatedly being granted super user permissions? - HTC EVO 3D

Super user keeps granting set CPU permissions every Damn minute with the notification that pops up at the bottom of our screen, how the hell do I stop that?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App

I think that is because you have the notification checked. The one that displays your max and min frequencies on the notification bar.
Appreciate my help? Thank me

No, I figured it out, had to go into superuser and disable toast notifications

I too am having this problem... Rather than disable notifications I would like to get to the bottom of why this is happening. Is there anyone who knows what's up?

It is part of the SuperUser application, go into it, disable notifications. Golden.

It only does it if you have profiles set up. I think it's every time it checks through that service.

Yea, it's part of the SuperUser app, but it's not supposed to be granting permissions every minute. There is an issue with SetCPU, IMO. SuperUser keeps granting it permissions, because setcpu keeps ASKING it for permissions. It's not supposed to happen like that. It should ask for permissions when you start the app, and that's it. I've used setcpu for quite a while now, and have never had it act like that. There is something up with it.

Very well said! Yes I have used it for over a year and never experienced this on any other phone/rom. But if it's not a wide problem maybe a fresh install will help. I also do not want to disable notifications because I want to know when apps are requesting SuperUser access... With that said as soon as my phone has a little more charge I will be reflashing from scratch

I have also noticed this as well and my solution was to disable superuse notifications. I am also using profiles in setcpu, setcpu never did this on my OG Evo.

That didnt resolve anything for me. my notifications was unticked in the first place. probably just wait for an update to fix hopefully!

I agree with FatChevy. Once a update comes out, there probably won't be a problem with it anymore. Did you try emailing the developer?

Still the same thing and this did not happen in the old version of SetCPU.

[Q] since no root yet, best autostarts replacement?

hey guys, I always used autostarts on my evo 4g to disable apps from starting up. I never like the task killer approach since it was said to have done more harm than good on android 2.2+. Well, since the 3d isn't rooted yet, what are you guys doing to keep apps from running? anything?

without root, all that can do is kill processes manually... same as ATK... unless I am missing something
For now, yes. Unless you know of another that works without root and doesn't actually hinder AOS? This one and minfree are considered the best according to reviews around the web. Set a preset and let it do it's thing....they work in conjunction w/AOS. But you are right, you have to manually end the process for now

You can't cause we don't have root. My post meant this is one of the best when we have root. For the time being you have to manually end the process yourself.

Is There An APP That You Can Schedule Reboots?

I'm Looking for an app that you can set up a schedule to have your phone reboot at a specific time every day. I know about "Fast Reboot" and those type of apps, but I'm looking for something that fully reboots the phone, hardware and all. Anyone know of an app that does that?
I would think Tasker could probably do it.
I haven't used tasker before and I have read that it is complicated to use so I was hoping for something a little more simple. Plus, I don't really need tasker for anything else so that would be kind of an expensive rebooting app. But I bet your right and that it could do it and thank you for taking the time and giving me your suggestion.
Why woukd you need a reboot app? Just curous
Sent from my Vibrant on Ultimate 2.2.1
I don't need it per say. But I thought it would be nice to have it reboot and be ready in the morning right away. I just reboot my phone every morning and to have it done automatically would be cool. That's all.

Also charging is better with phone off on GB so having the ability to have the phone turn on at a set time would still allow use of an alarm...theoretically anyway. I've actually thought about this but haven't looked into it.

That is another great reason that I hadn't even thought of. Nice
Theres an app out there called PhonePrioritizer....it can perform scheduled reboots using a script. it does work, i used to use it....google it and check it out

Theres no way to have the phone turn on by itself while it is not on...he probably means he just wants his phone to reboot itself like a half hour before he wakes up every morning so its fresh and ready to go, and he has all that nice reboot-RAM to play with.

Thanks, I will check that app out. And yes, you knew exactly what I meant. Thanks, I couldn't think of another way to explain it and you did perfectly.
Titanium Backup would be the easiest way to do it, but you have to back stuff up, which you're probably doing, anyway, right?
I would have paid at least $20 for it, and it's been worth much more to me than that.
You can use Script Manager to write a script that reboot
(Create a Script in your SD card, under the #!/system/bin/sh line just write the word reboot, it should look like this:
#!/system/bin/sh
reboot
)
Afterwards, long hold that script, and then change it so that it Run as root.
DO NOT check the Run at boot, or else it'll infinitely reboot.
then in Script Manager, go to Menu --> Advanced Options --> Scheduler
and then schedule the time you want it to reboot. Then press add script, add that script you just made.

Stock task killer too aggressive

My built in task killer is being super aggressive recently. When I first had the phone, pressing the "Clear RAM" closed around 5-10 applications and left me with ~350-400MB of used RAM. I installed system tuner pro (which is now uninstalled), but ever since I had installed it, my task killer is now closing 20+ applications, and my used RAM is getting down to 200-250MB. I can never get it down to "0 applications closed" anymore and the lowest I got was "3 applications closed" over and over again.
Normally, I wouldn't really care so much, but what I'm getting annoyed with is that doing that seems to disable NoLED and I suspect it's messing with SetCPU. SetCPU shows 702/192 on the widget, which is what I had it set to, but if I open SetCPU, I see 1836/192 at the top, but the scrollers are still 702/192. Anyone know what the heck is going on?

And yet still remain necessary for malfunctioning apps or those that stay running even when you back out of them and consume way too many resources, harming your battery life. C:Geo is my example. It doesn't always shut down properly and likes to drain my battery when I'm not using it unless I force quit it.
Another good example: Voxer likes to get "stuck" almost constantly. Only way to fix it is by force quitting and starting it up again.
While I agree that users shutting down apps constantly with a task manager to clear RAM does more harm than good, they still have their purpose and are a handy thing to have on any phone OS.

So the answer to OP is then to stop hitting the "Clear Ram" button.
Honestly, What is the point of a phone having this much ram, if you aren't going to let apps use it?
When you hit the home button, what android does is save the current state of that app and lays it to rest in the ram. When you go back to that app, it will pull it from the ram and bring it back from that state.
The app is not running in the background unless it's intended too.
So johnus is right. If an app gets stuck, or it is using your cpu and there is no real way to close it, that's what an app killer is really meant for.
Case closed now?

So I notice an issue with the task manager and you're basically suggesting I ignore it by not using very function I want to use?? That makes no sense and offers no solution to the problem whatsoever. I understand the concept of RAM and how it's used; I'm not new to this. The answer to my question is NOT to simply not use it

Some people just think their logic is law and their needs are the same as everybody. I use task manager for several things. Many that the previous poster mentioned and others. I'm sorry open but I can offer no assistance as I've never wandered past the stock task manager. But I will follow this thread as I am interested in the functions you mentioned.

Accidentally denied permissions permanently in Superuser

A superuser popup came up for "Reset Notify" app and I accidentally clicked the bottom selection of "deny permanently". In SU 1.0.1.8 there is no option to undo this or change it. How can go back and allow it?
Clear data for supersu
That reset notify thing pops up quite frequently for me, it's kind of annoying. Mr. Gunnyman, any idea what it is?

com.htc.resetnotify. You'd think that granting it permissions once would be enough but noooooo it would rather pester and annoy me every couple days. Google provides zero answers.
My stock rooted phone never sees this
Mine is stock rooted too. I saw it on my last one with cleanROM as well. It really isn't that big of a nuisance, I'd still like to know what the hell it is though. What superuser app are you using?
It doesn't seem to affect anything so far with it denied permission.... I'm just worried its needed for something....
That and I would just like to know for the future in case i make this mistake again.
My phone is stock rooted, heck I just got it yesterday....

I think it's somehow tied to the HTC Setup app that prompts to setup an HTC account. I've seen the reset notify prompt at the same time the green HTC notification. Just froze both.

Random vibration

I recently noticed that every once in a while, seems like every hour or so that my s4 will vibrate once, and only once with absolutely no indication of why, no sort of notification, and I am losing my mind trying to figure out what is causing it. I have gone through a bunch of apps and disabled any kind of notification, uninstalled lots of apps and yet, it still happens. Does this happen to anyone else and or does someone know why? I am on mdk. Thanks.
Bump. No one has run into this..? Googling the issue has been useless.

Does it happen only when you pick up the phone? If so, this is an optional feature that indicates you have unread messages. That's about the only thing I can think of.

Bmup. Still happens, tried using notification history app, and that showed nothing when the phone vibrated.
Bump. I've experienced this randomly myself.
I've noticed that if I have emails in gmail that I didn't check like" promotions" as the sperate it then mine does that. Might zero you in on a target.

i had the same issue. in my case it was vibrating everytime i got a new email on the outlook.com app. even though i turned off all notification for that app it still vibrates.
I checked those other things already and it was still doing it. Though I believe I just figured it out in my case. Handcent privacy box. It had sent message notification in the status bar disabled and yet, it was set to vibrate every time, so that made it vibrate shortly after sending a text without any sort of notification. Hopefully that's the only reason for me.
random vibrations well
I've been noticing this too as of recent. While not in use, it tends to sit on my desk next to me. There is no set time, notification, or anything I can see triggering these vibrations. Really bugs the heck out of me.
Well I feel comfort in that I am not the only one it is happening to, and apparently the handcent thing didn't fix it, it just now vibrated for no reason. I'm completely stumped ugh.

I would backup all of your 3rd party apps, uninstall them, then see if it's still happening. Then if it's not doing it just restore one by one until you find the culprit.

Yeah its a good idea, but it would take ages to execute. Since the vibration happens randomly I would have to have the phone on my person at all times and if it happens just once in a day then I'd be restoring a single app at a time

What might be faster would be just to freeze the apps with TiBu, then it would only take a second to restore them. It might take a few days to track down, but it'll save you the hassle of having to deal with it long term

That's the culprit for me too. It's very very annoying. I have notifications turned off within outlook.com but it still vibrates when I get a new email. It must have been one of their updates that broke this because it never used to.

Hmm, that is very strange. For me, if the vibration is disabled within the app, and all notifications are disabled app settings, then i get no more vibration. Did you try reinstalling outlook and or rebooting?
