(App) CoolTool - Real time Always on Top CPU and RAM monitor - Asus Eee Pad Transformer Prime

Hope this has'nt been posted, did a quick search, found nothing, if its a replicate, meu colpa
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ult#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImRzLmNwdW92ZXJsYXkiXQ..
Found this nifty little diagnostic app, does a similar job to the "show CPU Usage" under the development options on our tabs, except with this one you can place it where you like.
So basically, this allows you to monitor in real time a few things, like CPU and RAM, and like the Development option, its stays displayed what ever you might be doing...want to find out how much cpu that game is using in real time, BAM, now you can
--------------------------------
Quick run down on the app shown on my screenshot (Lower left, on the taskbar)
N - Network, i love this. Allows you to view real time when data is being transfered over Mobile/Wifi, in this case wifi. Allows me to see if any apps are transfering data over wifi in the background,
Bar Graph - This gives a graphical representation of what you've chosen to display, in this instance i have it to display CPU Frequency, others include, available ram, battery level, wifi signal etc etc
102mhz -Pretty self explanatory, shows the current frequency of your tablet/phone
M - This bits the RAM
t - Temperature
com.android.systemui:screenshot - This bit displays the top process using the most of your, i belive, cpu, at that time
--------------------------------
You can change the update interval i.e. 0.5s, 1s, 2s
Theres also one or two other things you can display, which ive taking off through the app settings
Double cheked on cpu spy, and it doesnt seem to use any unsuall amounts of the higher clock speeds, time will tell, so, touch wood, its not a resource hog
Could always turn it off, and turn it on when you want to diagnose CPU or RAM issues
Anyways, i hope this helps some

[APP][WEB] tBattery Graphical Analyzer

tBattery Graphical Analyzer
I always thought that tBattery, which is included in the EnergyROM for instance, is a nice tool with huge potential. Because I couldn't find an application to visualize the vast amount of data tBattery creates I decided to knock something up real quick.
What it is and what it does
It is a web application for visualizing the log output from tBattery. Currently, it displays the battery life percentage over time and not much more but I intend to include more features if there's actually someone else out there who uses tBattery.
It relies on JavaScript (jQuery & jqplot) for displaying the graph, so you might want to activate it. Also, since I didn't do any extensive testing yet I'd recommend a recent version of Chrome, Firefox, Safari or Opera Mobile 10. Well, or Internet Explorer.
{

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",

}
Why it might be useful
As stated, with all the sensors being read (life percentage, temperature, current, voltage, mAh etc.) you could visualize a lot of data and create a usage profile for yourself. You could compare your usage patterns with others and get hints, for instance about your charging habits.
Please let me know if you are interested in that kind of web-based extended visual logging.
Current limitations
Displays only life percentage and the time passed
You cannot download the graph, screenshot is the only way to save
There can be quiet weird values for the x-axis, like 1020 minutes. I'll fix that
Planned features
Display date/time on mouse cursor position in graph
Choosing the value(s) you want to display
Anonymous storage of logs and graphs for later reference
User registration for storing logs and allowing comparisons between devices/ROMs etc
Simple download of graphs as images
Let me know what features you're missing and I will try to add them.
Check it out
Just copy & paste the content of the log file and hit [Show me].
tBattGraph
What about tBattery
I also attached tBattery, extract the archive onto your device (after virus checking). God knows where this tool comes from but all credits to the creator.
Reserved.
This sounds interesting, very much so as i feel my battery average run-out time is way to low Thanks
This is an very interesting application. Please take also a look to the forum.ageye.de. These guys have also to fight against the same old problem . Please send some greetings to Joerg from ageye .
Please write also a little app or html site so that we can do the graph on our phone. That will be the killer app of this year, i think. Everyone have to check his own battery from time to time. And then the possibillty to skin this app (dusking). More killerapp then that is not possible.
Hachja, das waere eine Traumsoftware
Any news on the app ? I'm really interested.
seems to be very useful application.
thanks for sharing ..
thanks to the creator of this app..
thanks man... you awesome
Thanks for all the kind words! That motivates me to pick up the project again; what features would you like to see?
> User registration for storing logs and allowing comparisons between devices/ROMs etc
It will be my best function!
Maybe export to csv to deeper analize
This could be very interesting for comparing the effect of flashing new roms, it's been speculated many times that it takes a few cycles to settle in a battery in a new ROM.
Also, will give this a try using my spare battery, would be interesting to see how the capacity claims match up to the original battery.

hello
i have question, because i don't know that is normal.
The program don't save log's when phone is in sleep mode?? Because when i put my diamond i that mode program stops logging, and i want to know how much power does it take in this particular mode.
I thought that app saveing information all the time...

[Q] setcpu flykernel what´s the best configuration

i would like to know what´s the best configuration for the hero to have a better battery perfomance with flykernel.
example:

Thanks
1200mhz? Is that a hero?
Its not hero , the resolution is to high.
what the.... flykernel runs on other systems? cool - I guess it makes sense that he builds it for other systems but I just never thought about that happening.
I think the screen is just a screen. Kernel from one device won't run on another.

oh, so he grabbed a setcpu screenshot for example's sake?
ok, original poster, are you using a hero? LoL
I'm pretty sure of this
The screenshot is from another device / kernel, he was just using it as an example.
As for best configuration, there isn't one I am afraid. It is dependant on so many differing factors:-
- what apps update in the background and how often?
- how often you use the screen?
- what brightness do you have your screen on?
- how good is your signal?
- how many widgets do you have running?
- how well written the apps you use are (sky news for instance used to be a massive battery drain)
- how efficient your battery is (old batteries drain quicker)
that it is impossible to say. I personally don't use any profiles at all, I run at 19MHz min / 748MHz max and use the smartass governor, but I am so often around my charger (at home or at work) that I don't know what the battery life is like. It lasts more than 24 hours and linpack over 5.2 MFLOPS, which is enough for me.
yea - most common sense way to improve battery life is this:
reduce screen brightness manually as much as you can live with
slow down top speed of cpu as much as you can live with. in most roms I can live with something in the 450 mHz range or whatever that kernel provides as a lowish top end speed.
smartass is good for battery life - nice low bottom speed, very quick to speed up if necessary. but if you can live with some occasional slowdowns on unlock (the only side effect I get from the following setup) just use a low conservative-governor speed with screen off profile and higher but still low as you can live with speed with screen on using the ondemand governor.
oh, and turn off wifi when not using it, turn off bluetooth when not using it, make sure no apps request gps when not using it or turn it off too if you're paranoid (but gps only runs when an app asks it to run), and if you really want great battery life when screen is off then t urn off background updates except when you really want to update your data.
The image is only example
...and if you really want great battery life when screen is off then t urn off background updates except when you really want to update your data...

Can you do that automatically ?

there are apps you can install that do that automatically for you, but of course then you have another service running in the background all the time managing this stuff. I would imagine it's worth a try, but I personally need background updates enabled so my wife can ping me whenever she wants.
Let me just say this.
Look in the FlyKernel topic. He has a darn huge part there on what the best speed is.
And to make it lazy for ya.
172/614 smartass, and totally no profiles.
But it is more what you like.
If you want to go like I want to have a P4 and go to the 2.2 Ghz and try to run XP on it. Have fun
But in short, First read out a whole post of a kernel before making a new topic. next time post it inside the topic of the kernel. Less clutter on the board.
EDIT: I personally dont use setCPU because its another app running for something you can just configure with flykernel package itself. Same for all kernels. Just have to find out how . And now its time to go to bed, that was something I was planning to do 4.5 hours ago
12a is a great kernel..
I find 19/576 (interactive when screen on, conservative when off) works perfectly on froydvillain 1.7.2, but I'm using the included app cpu speed, not setcpu.
I don't have any problems with lag during games or anything else, so why overclock more if not needed? I have gone up to 730 though I didn't find performance was that much better, so I leave it at 576 unless otherwise needed.

Suggestions, need a good performance/ resource monitor

Hi.
I've been looking for a good performance / resource monitor with quad core support.
Need an overview over memory , hdd space and cpu performance ( pref live monitor)
Any suggestions. Tried a few but with limited luck. It's either too limited or too cluttered .
Help?

Aye, I use Tablet CPU Usage Monitor so that I can keep up with what my CPU and RAM are doing even while I'm running benchmarks and using apps. The widget route is OK and all, but then you have to keep going to the homescreen.
Hopefully the dev may include CPU/GPU temperature as well as the clock rates, but I haven't heard back on that suggestion.

This app does clock rate etc. You can put clock rate, RAM usage and CPU usage on the notification area. You might have the buy it for those functions to work, I don't know. I bought it when it hit the market for the QUAD Core support.
Screenshots:
Here is the link to the market.

I think the main thing is refresh rate...that would determine most accurate to the millisecond, you know....System Panel if anything shows everything refreshes quick, but is super condensed...

[Hint/Tip]Best way to save battery

Disclaimer; This does not damage your phone at all or fry/mess up your cpu. On the contrary, it helps it by not running at full capacity all the time resulting in less stress and increased battery.​
All credits goes to SuperAce609. I only share with you because this helps a lot. Original Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1447938
This method works universally for any Android phone you're using. But you'll need ROOT for Set CPU.
IMPORTANT: The newer versions of SetCPU might prevent your phone from entering deep sleep. Download version 2.24 from the following link which is the one with no problems and completely works 100%.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
The Ace sucks in battery life. We all know that. And on 3G? Don't even mention it. But here's a fix, ever tried Under clocking instead of Over clocking?
Someone brought it up on a thread a couple of days ago and I have to spread the word, that works wonders. Got my Ace running on 245 min and 806 max and a different Screen Off profile. And now from the morning till 6PM in the afternoon, its just 61% AND recorded a 7 minute video/took pictures.
Battery was the only issue I had with my Ace. But now that its fixed, I love it
When screen is on:
MAX 806
MIN 245
Ondemand governor (This governor bumps up to max when needed but spends most time on the min freq. Best battery saver.)
When screen is off:
MAX 320
MIN 122
This way, you have a beast quick phone when you're using it, and the best battery saver when you're not!
This is what CPU spy should look like when you're done:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
NOTE: Turn off Autosync from the settings. It's only used to sync your gmail and contacts and such. You can manually sync when you add a new contact and since I don't use gmail, I refresh manually whenever I do. 3G is the worst battery killer so this will help a lot.
SetCPU: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=505419
Specific instructions for those that can't get it to work!:
On SetCPU:
Click Add profile
Where it says Profile, select it and tap "Screen Off"
Set the frequencies you want in use while screen is off (If you want just one frecuency, put both sliders on the same number)
Set priority (in case you have other profiles, otherwise don't bother)
Select governor (Won't really matter since cpu is gonna be running at 1 frecuency)
Tap save
Go back to Profiles tab at the top, then tap Enable at the top left to make the profiles work.
For a list of most governors detailed; check out this thread! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1242323
To check if its all working, install CPU spy from the market:

Battery Calibration
1. Turn your phone off
2. Leave charging over night
3. Turn it on
4. Leave it charging for half an hour
5. Download this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&feature=search_result
6. Open it and press calibrate battery
7. Discharge your phone down to 0% during the day
8. Charge back up to 100% NON-STOP.
This is to make sure you're using your battery at 100%. Only do this after you flash a new rom.
The worst battery killer is 3G itself. No matter how much you try to optimize battery and underclock, if you have 3G on, you're gonna have a bad time. MAKE SURE Autosync is disabled.
Thanks to QNBT for the AutoSync off and new profile settings hint!

Why isn't Contrast in the general Settings?

I've had a problem for quite some time where Google Maps on my OnePlus One displays the normal Map view in near-zero contrast (no matter the screen brightness). You simply cannot tell, looking at the screen with the human eye, the difference between roads and not-roads. In Satellite view it's fine (but of course uses much more data, memory, CPU, etc, and Satellite view is much busier on the screen, so that's not a long-term acceptable solution).
I'm running CM13 on my OnePlus One; there is no Contrast setting. (In Accessibility there are a couple of related ones, but they don't actually control contrast, and they don't solve this problem, and they're both marked experimental - may impact performance).
I found an app, Netman "Screen Adjuster", which works perfectly .. but has to be always running to hold the contrast adjusted, leaves a post in notifications (despite its option to not do so), is ad supported, etc - simply should not be necessary.
Why isn't there/ how can we add/ who do we beg/pay to add a Contrast adjustment to the normal Settings in CyanogenMod 13 ?
thanks!
Content of my post from CyanogenMod forums:
On my OnePlus One running CM13 [nightlies] - I'm not sure if this specifically started with my upgrade some months ago to CM13, or if it was this way on CM12 before also - the contrast in Google Maps is much too low. Basically it's impossible to see the difference between road and not-road in the normal Map view. If I switch it to Satellite view then everything displays fine. On some other forums I've seen similar complaints both from OnePlus users and from users of some other platforms. So it's a maps+contrast thing, not exactly specific to this model.
I've attached two screenshots and a camera photograph of the same Google Maps display:
One screenshot is of normal Map view, which viewed here displays perfectly, so it's not the actual graphic content, but how the OPO screen displays it.
The other screenshot is of Satellite view, which viewed here and with human eyeballs on the OPO's screen is fine.
The photograph is of normal Map view (I tested both with the screen brightness quite high and the also quite low, both show near zero contrast making the map view unusable to the human eye, so I'm only posting one photo here).
My guess is that either contrast or something about the graphics drivers for the OPO in CM13 are causing the valid underlying graphic bits to be displayed in very low contrast.
I'm not sure why I don't notice this in other programs, just in Google Maps.
Hm. It's definitely the OPO's Contrast setting. I found an app (which I don't like as it has to be always running to keep the contrast set properly) "Screen Adjuster" by "Netman" which makes Google Maps perfectly readable by setting Contrast to "-100" (exactly halfway between the default 0 and the maximum).
So, without using some dodgy app, how to control Contrast on OPO or more generally in CM13?
thank you.

Photo of Satellite view - looks fine
Screenshot of Map view (exactly the same thing in the first photograph) - displays fine on YOUR screen which has proper contrast, just not on a (my?) OPO:
Try to change the color temperature. It might do the trick. Settings>Screen>Color temperature
Now, that's interesting.
On my OPO with CM13 within Settings -> Display & lights -> LIVEDISPLAY, I had Display mode set to Outdoor (which seems to boost display brightness and whiteness, though in no place does it speak of contrast).
It has Color Temperature (which did indeed help .. at the expense of some need-to-get-used-to-that color variations; I've re-set those to the defaults of 6500K day and 4800K night), color calibration (100% for each of R/G/B, and changing that is definitely not what I was looking for ), Power consumption (no effect) and Enhance colors (no effect).
So while color temperature makes a difference it doesn't seem to be the ideal... but I played with Display mode, switching it from Outdoor to Automatic, and instantly Google Maps became readable.
This is in my home office, which is presently lit by subdued outside lighting on a clear sunny day. I need to go outside and stand in full direct sunlight to see if Automatic goes to Outdoor and again washes out Google Maps displays to zero-contrast unreadability.
It still seems weird that Contrast is controllable (witness "Screen Adjuster" and several others) but there is no Contrast control in Settings.
Many thanks!
Im glad that helped
