Hi guys! This is my first post as a developer. This little tool shows some system info such
- CPU Load meter
- Free RAM meter
- CPU Frequency indicator
- 2g/3g Traffic meter
- Battery Status indicator
- Wi-Fi Signal Level
- Current Time indicator
in "always on top" mode (overlay window). Also there is nice realtime graph.
Press Show Panel button to start system monitoring. You can drag window over the screen or double tap to open settings. See video and screenshots for details.

I really like this one too. Got a few wishes though. More choices in colors (I have orange text in my statusbar for example) Maybe show Wi-fi rate too?

Then another question. Does it use much battery when phone has screen off/is sleeping?

Using MIUI freshly squeezed 1.10.14 on DHD btw...

You can try to adjust opacity of text or background in settings. In next versions i planned to change color select dialogs.
In 1.1 version i have added wifi traffic counter too
and when device sleep off - service go to sleep too (at least in v1.1 :))

Great app, very stylish. Very manageable for adjusting sizes. Looks great on the notification bar.

Great tool. An option to keep it in the notification bar would be cool.

A good idea. Whilst in the unlock screen, the panel isn't visible (at least for me). A persistent notification would solve this, however I'm not sure we would have much liberty to move it where we would want it. Interesting if implemented. I'ma leave a good review on the market now :)

Edit: Just noticed this thing stay on screen at ALL times. This includes fullscreen mode and when the camera is activated. Any way to filter it out during both instances?

Agreed...maybe an option for one or another. This is awesome while testing out tweeks and changes, but having it in the notification bar would help me keep it where I need it at all times.

    hey guys, please check if it works stable, just to be sure nothing is broken

    this is indeed a cool tool :good: however, it doesn't seem to run on start up? (even with the option ticked) using android 4.2.2 on htc one

    Give it time to start up after boot. There are several methods to start at boot - but the usual is I think to subscribe to the "boot finished" broadcast. This is what many apps do and so after boot there is a big stand-in-line-for CPU and memory which usually cannot be served fast (but on HTC One it should not be a problem). If you wait a little after you see the launcher started it should enter the screen.
    Mind that some places (notification bar) may require special attention - and I think that this space cannot be used on JB at all.

    If you have other tweaks running (especially XPrivacy with the XPosed framework) you have to grant privileges for the app once after install.

    Last thought: not sure if only the paid version does autostart? It is so long I have the paid version, I just cannot tell.

    I was running CT 5.4 with Xposed, using status bar injection. Decided to upgrade to pro, which also brought a minor version change to 5.4.3. Unfortunately pro is insisting xposed isn't installed, I don't have root or the module isn't enabled, none of which is true. Any advice? This is on a Note Pro 12.2 (SM-P900) with stock KK rom.

    please read faq
