This is a simple and lightweight application created initially for private use for me and my friends but I decided, later, to share with the community Android. Needless to say, there are many other applications that do the same things and maybe even more as the now famous TricksterMOD but I still tried to carve out my place among the applications of this series, without any presumption.

I'm not responsible for any damage to your device caused using this application. Use at your own risk.

Information and tips

Being a continuous application developmentnthere may be issues such crashs or anything like that. In the event that this happens I would ask you, please, send me the logcat attached with a short description of the circumstances in which the problem occurs and the ROM + Kernel + any MODs you have installed. To run the logcat you can use the applications that are in the Google Play Store. I personally recommend CatLog , free and easy to use. Any other problems should be reported with details just now exposed. For more information see post number three. Thanks for your cooperation.

Each user is free to suggest changes and the addition of any other functions that accept or scarterò. I can not be happy to receive suggestions on how to improve this program and I will try to satisfy you always, to the extent possible and my skills.

I highly recommend to disable the Toast notification applications SuperSU as Superuser or the related settings as each operation in this application requires root, ergo, you always nagging notification of grant administrator privileges. Council also consult with perseverance the first page of this thread which lists all major and constantly updated information to know about the application and its optimal use.

The application can be included in ROMs after asking me for permission and received a reply in the affirmative.

I do not provide assistance on the application versions that are not the latest available and I do not respond to private messages related to the application which can be treated in this discussion . The collaboration is the first step to a successful product! Google+ Community avaiable HERE.

First of all , thank you

Not bad, not overloaded, that's what i like, good. All base stuff is available, only colour settings for Hammerhead is missing but i am sure it comes.

All in all, great work, i use trickster for long long time but the project looks dead and I missing many things.

I test your app now some time, donation will following.

I flop flop between elementalX and chaos on CM, so my question to you is, before I load elementalX, does this app allow for sound tweaking with elementalX?

i dont know and i've not tried it yet
i use viper4android and fauxsound app to do this

but it is worth to install elementalx all the time;);););):good::good::good::good::laugh::laugh:

No, no sound tweak... I like "flop flop".
Kernel Manager for the moment doesn't support the possibility of manage Faux Sound Tweaks. For more details about the motivation read HERE.

I'm very happy to read so many positive feedbacks. Thanks to all for the great support! If someone want to suggest new feature i'm happy to develop it.

@CrotaNexus

Well, some feedback after using this since last night, with Code Blue on Purity :

No problems regarding stability, every setting i tested sticks right after reboot and i like the option to disable backlight dimmer.
Simple, clean and light.
But except colors you have already mentioned, i noticed some other "bugs" :
The first time you open the app it doesnt read correctly the max cpu freq. If you reopen it then its fine.
Secondly, it only reads the values on 2 cores of cpu.
And finally, the read of ram usage must be totally wrong.
Unfortunately, i didnt had time to test your app paired with other kernels ( for the time being at least ) so i dont know if these are "general"
bugs/problems.
I imagine that eng.stk could assist you if any help needed to fix this in Code Blue and maybe add more tunables if you are interested.

But having in mind that this is a beta version, i think the potential is there for great things in the future, keep on and many thanks ! :victory:

@CrotaNexusThe first time you open the app it doesnt read correctly the max cpu freq. If you reopen it then its fine.
I'm not sure but maybe the file that contains the max value of the CPU has wrong permissions. Can you see which permissions are setted for the file that is situated in /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq? Thanks in advance.
Secondly, it only reads the values on 2 cores of cpu.
Sorry, i don't understand. What do you mean?
And finally, the read of ram usage must be totally wrong.
To read current usage of RAM i utilize Google's API inserted since API level 16. The methods are: avaialMem and totalMem. This is the description that Google provide about these methods.

avaialMem
The available memory on the system. This number should not be considered absolute: due to the nature of the kernel, a significant portion of this memory is actually in use and needed for the overall system to run well.

totalMem
The total memory accessible by the kernel. This is basically the RAM size of the device, not including below-kernel fixed allocations like DMA buffers, RAM for the baseband CPU, etc.

Which numbers do you see about memory usage on my application? Thanks for the compliments and support. I really appreciate!
