App wasn't available in the Market for me on SGSII (2.3.4). I got it downloaded via a roundabout method and have now gone 'pro'.

Excellent work! I like this alot and will be recommending.

Thank you.

EDIT: Under Apk Manager, apps I have frozen with other apps (e.g. Titanium) do not show up as frozen in Advanced Tools Pro. Just for your information :)

EDIT 2: Yesterday it was working well, just FCs constantly when trying to open the app today :( I have to clear the app's cache and data to get it to run.

About the the problem you had, atm i'm working to get a better support for 2.3.4 and 2.3.5,

Just a question, do you remember which was the last tool opened before the FCs?

Thank you

Sorry, I can't remember, but it was basically after a reboot. Once I cleared app data and cache all was fine.

Thank you! I've just updated and all appears well so far.

Just for your information, I still can't see the app in Market on my SGSII, I had to update on my Flyer and bluetooth it over again.

Still great work, very much appreciated. Thank you!

@everyoneelse

Go pro, it rocks ;)

How does this compare to the superb Android Optimizer which i downloaded on here about 2 months ago?
Why not download it and find out for yourself? I highly recommend it!

New version 1.65

I made a little mistake while packing the app in version 1.6 (well.. not true, it was a big mistake!)
Some root features were lost. This new update will fix the issue.

(edit: nevermind, new version is coming!)

Huge update -- version 1.7

I made the first post a bit easier to read, actually just a list of features.
What's new in 1.7: file search, live logcat, internal task killer and much more, take a look at the features tagged with NEW!!

Hope you enjoy

Note about the "CIQ detector", it's still a bit experimental but it should work, surely is not accurate as the tool of TrevE, who's the very first into the CIQ stuff, thanks to him for the hard work.
