[APP][2.2+] Diagnosis - Know what Android is doing!

[Dark3n]

Diagnosis - Know what's going on!​

Description:

Ever wondered what your Android is currently doing?

On Windows we can open the task manager and get all the information we want.
On Android it will suspend the app we are currently using, but what if we wanted information about that app?
What if wanted to know if an app is currently downloading or uploading something? How much cpu is this app using?
Is this app running out of memory?
Is the battery getting too hot ?
What apps are running in the background, at this moment?
Did another app just start and cause lag?
Why doesnt this app tell me how much battery i have left?
Loosing track of time while gaming?

Diagnosis can display system information at all times, even while using other apps.
When Diagnosis is turned on, a small customizeable text is shown on screen giving you information of your choice.

(Check out the screenshots at the end of the post)​

There are lots of settings to customise everything to your personal preference:
- Information displayed
- Position
- Size
- Color
- Font
- Update interval and much more...
Just give it a look, it is self explaining, but i will write a small guide later on.

If you wish you can turn on the database feature.
The collected information will be written into a seperate database on the sdcard and 4 extra tabs will appear.
These tabs will show information from the database (min/max/avg etc. values).
Some examples:
- How hot the battery got
- Minimum battery voltage reached
- Upload / Download traffic
- Seen apps with avg cpu and memory usage

This will work on any device with android 2.2 or higher.
You don't need ROOT or anything special.

I want to thank everyone who helped me test the early builds!

It wiped your sgs 2?!?
Are you sure you are in the correct thread?

How should it have done that?
It doesn't delete files, it only reads files...

Sorry but you are confusing something.

Small update.

Lower density means bigger database, but more accurate data in the tabs.
With the default update interval of 5 seconds, it would mean every 30 seconds there is enough data for a database entry.

What do you think about the default update interval of 5 seconds? Too long , too short or just right?

v0.3.1
- Eased cpu usage a bit by adding a small delay
- Corrected some debug output
- lowered default density to from 12 to 6
- decreased maximum density from 120 to 60
- added text for default x and y position in preferences

Hello, thanks dev! I love this concept and have been using it since xmas.

Personally, I like the default at 2. Not sure how much that increases battery usage... I just like real time info.

Another couple things, adding temp to the default line 1. Maybe take away cpu freq or network up speed?

Temps in Fahrenheit.

And option to customize the threshold for "app cpu usage over x percent".

Option to start the service on boot.

 

[Dark3n]

Thanks for the input.

I will add extra info options with Temp instead of cpu freq or network speed.
Also Fahrenheit will be added as an option to the settings.

I'm current reworking the database feature as under certain conditions some info was not saved.

custom threshold and start on boot will be something for later .

Well awesome, keep up the good work, I really like this app. I'll keep you informed if I find anything else.

 

[Droidzone]

Looks like a very interesting app..Will test..

 

[B1ny]

I have mine updating every 10 sec, any quicker and I ain't got time to read it

 

[arif-ali]

One feature that would be useful is that it would start at startup, I.e. the monitoring, so the text comes as soon as the phone starts

Btw, it works in ICS as well

thanks man, it looks pretty gooood

 

[Dark3n]

The display of informationnn worked really well but i was not satisfied with the database storing. I reworked the whole storing code and the result looks good, much cleaner code and more efficient. Some tweaks can be added but i'm going to sleep now, have to leave something for later .

@Cloaker added two sets with temperature instead of frequency and the settings contain an option for fahrenheit now.

Might move the setting, not sure if it should belong there...

Version v0.4 rc1

I'm currently thinking if it would be good/needed/worth it to add disk write/read information...
