Currently I'm using the standard android API (ActivityManager.getMemoryInfo() method) to get the available RAM information.
I don't know why it counts the cache, but there's no other way in the API to get the RAM info.

Understand from this perspective. I got your app to see when is the likelihood the phone may start killing my game if I switched app, can be misleading at times. But good info to see at a glance by pulling down the notification bar.

Much appreciated, thank you!

I vaguely remember seeing an app that gave the option to hide the notification icon without running the risk of Android nixing the service. If this is possible, any chance it could be implemented? (my notification shade gets cluttered enough sometimes)

edit: I might be not thinking at all, and ongoing notifications require the icon there...

Hi,

Wonderful app! smart & simplcity!

I assume that it's almost transparent for battery life?

I'd like to see the option to hide the notification icon too - for the same reason.
If it's possible that is :)

so.. +1

Ho OP, nice app. Just a few advice/request/feature change:

1. Please do try to add CPU usage. Many requests from people on the playstore reviews too.
2. On switching the icon display off, the bars go off too. Instead there is only a text notification display for RAM. Few people on playstore complained of the same 2.
3. Can you please code for the service to stop/sleep on screen off and restart on screen on? This prevents wakelocks and conserves battery. Thanks and good job!

I dont want to promise this. Adding CPU usage is not an easy task, and have some drawbacks:
- it needs much higher refresh rates (1sec, 0,5sec) to show "realtime" CPU information (lower refresh rate does not make sense)
- too much refresh will drain your battery

2. On switching the icon display off, the bars go off too. Instead there is only a text notification display for RAM. Few people on playstore complained of the same 2.
The normal (text only) notification can be expanded with 2 finger swipe down gesture.

Thats the way how notifications works in android. I can't change this behavior.
High priority notifications can be always(nearly) on the top of the notification drawer, and can be always(nearly) in expanded state (with the bars). BUT high priority notification can't be shown without an icon, the android API does not allow that.

If you turn off the notification icon, the notification will show with a low priority flag, but this way the notification will not be always expanded. And maybe other notifications will push down in the stack.

So, you have to choose: high priority, always on top, always expanded notification with icon, OR low priority notification without icon (which maybe collapses or get lower in the notification stack).

3. Can you please code for the service to stop/sleep on screen off and restart on screen on? This prevents wakelocks and conserves battery.

It's already working exactly in this way. Screen off -> service stops. Screen on -> service starts.

@zsoltz,
Thanks. Good to know the service stops on screen off. If CPU usage implementation is a battery drainer, it can well be omitted. Didn't know the two swipe method. Thanks....

    I'm proud to introduce the Pro version of my little NotiSysinfo app.. :)

    ic_launcher_1.png


    As you maybe already know :), It's a small app (a background service) intended to display system information as an ongoing expanded notification. It doesn't need special permissions.

    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=zzs.notisysinfo.pro




    What's new (compared to the free version):
    - CPU usage panel
    - CPU frequency /cores
    - Configurable notification icon, it can display everything in percentage (cpu, ram free/used, storage free/used,battery)
    - Configurable collapsed view with usage bar (it can show one info panel what you choose: ram info, storage info etc)
    - More color options for the bars
    - Background colors & styles for the notifications
    - A new compact layout for the expanded view (without RAM, STORAGE etc. labels)

    Here are some screenshots:

    The pro version is translated to Hungarian, German, French, Slovak, Romanian, and Turkish. Some other languages coming soon.

    A big THANK YOU for the translators!!
    They allowed me using their earlier translations in the Pro version and they translated all the new strings for the Pro.

    And thank you for all you guys here in the topic, your comments and positive feedback really inspired me. I hope you will like the pro version.

    Bug reports (I hope there will be not too much), comments are welcome as always.
