Works. No error. But quit useless, i don't know how i could use these data ^^ can i export them into xls file ? Can't remove notification.

Thanks for this. Any chance to measure battery cycles?

Yes, enable Show sys/class/power_supply in the app settings.
And have a look at sys/class/power_supply/battery, there you'll see battery_cycle.

I don't know why but I can't seem to add a screenshot to this post, see the first post for the screenshots.

Thanks for your response.
While the app is gathering data you'll see a notification so you know that it's working in the background and yes you can't dismiss that notification.
With the data you'll be able to keep track of your battery temperature, the lower, the better for the longevity of your battery. Or you could compare different ways of charging your device, fast/slow, plugged/wireless.

I'm putting exporting the data on my to-do list.

Could you tell me the model of your phone and post a screenshot of the graph?
Thanks again!

Will do and will get back to you.

i just installed it, will test soon. but at first sight, i see a minor visual mistake in the settings, where the top bar is too tall when it doesn't include tabs, not according to material design guidelines

lol...first of all this so rude to say something like this. And this app can be so useful to use while you are checking your chargers and charging cycles etc. If you can not contribute something then stop cluttering the app threads. Its like you can move on and please don't bother to reply

Hi, it wasn't an attack, i did a test and tell what i though. There no "tutorial" in the app so i was wondering what could i do. Don't judge too fast boy

PS: tested on Sony Z3 - marshmallow

AndStuff · Feb 16, 2017

Just installed on my Oneplus 2, running oxygenos 3.5.6
Everything seems to be ok, except that there are no units showing next to the numbers. Also, current shows too many numbers, seems to be showing μA instead of mA.
I can provide screenshots or anything else if needed for help

Thanks for the app of course!

Edit: Both aforementioned issues seem to be present on a friend's LG G2 as well.
Edit 2: After the 15% calibration passed and phone charged, everything is ok. Numbers are normal, units show up, so cheers again for the app!

Indranuj Kar · Feb 16, 2017

Feedback!

Liked the interface! Lucid and simple to use. From the screenshot you can see battery charge cycle is something about 742. Can you tell me what can you determime from this?

Bdw tested on Samsung S6 Edge G925I having Alexis rom installed

jmarcosk · Feb 16, 2017

Very good app, just what I was looking for long time ago. just one thing, if is possible to put an switch to invert the charging current, as some devices it appears an negative value when charging. My device is OnePlus 3

Flashing_Expert · Feb 16, 2017

Working well

Hi I've just installed on my LG G4 with stock MM and everything seems ok but there's one bug, on history screen when I'll click on history of charging nothing happens, long press works as it should...

sanjed · Feb 16, 2017

This looks like a really useful app, installed on all my devices that will report charging data, will offer feedback if/where I find it.

I know this is about charging, but in your to do list, is there discharging as well? I would love that so much, especially if you do build in export capability.

Excellent work, thank you for putting it out here.

Don't worry, I didn't take it as an attack, but as a genuine question. Yeah I should improve the fist post a bit.....

Thanks!! Yes different phones reporting the battery current in different units (μA or mA and hopefully no others) is one of the reasons why I'm asking for your help here.

oneplus 3 user here, running official resurrection remix, 7.1.1, stock kernel

so, i've been using it for a while now, and here's what i have to say:

good design, although the top bar in settings should be thinner, the black theme is awesome.
it does the job of monitoring the charging process very well, the data seems to be accurate and can surely be useful
the app is lightweight, drains no resources and has no noticeable impact on the phone's behavior or performance

here's what i suggest to make the app better:

when viewing the chart of the active charging cycle (opened from within the app, not from the notification), add autorefresh every few seconds so people don't have to exit and reopen it to refresh
make the line for charging current display the absolute value of the current and fix the 0-line on the bottom so it makes more sense
it would be awesome to display cpu load and cpu temperature as optional lines in the chart, so one can compare the impact of using the phone while charging

but i have to say, good job so far, if i were you, i'd do some polishing, slap a google ad to the bottom, add a donate option and post it to the play store

I tried it. Asus ZenFone 2, running Android 5.0, stock and rooted.

I think it also showed some odd numbers when the app started, but I'll check again tomorrow to make sure.

P.S. Maybe you can add an option to cut the graph to show just the actual charging? I left my phone connected to the charger a while after it was fully charged, so the time is wrong, and I really want to know how long it takes my phone to be fully charged
