[APP] CpuFloat [March27] Floating cpu, gpu, temperatures, deep sleep, network monitor

[waterdaan]

CpuFloat

Uses a floating window or the status bar to show

# the cpu frequencies
# the cpu temperature if (available)
# the text will turn red when the cpu temperature rises above the throttle temperature. You can set custom throttle temperature in preferences.
# the gpu frequency
# Gpu load; not normalised
# the gpu temperature if (available)
# the text will turn red when the gpu temperature rises above the throttle temperature.
# awake time; the time the phone has been awake since starting the app
# deep sleep time; the time the phone has been asleep since starting the app
# battery current
# battery current
# current upload and download speed

In preferences you can choose
# floating window layout; vertical or horizontal layout
# to show the window in the status bar instead of a floating window
# the categories to monitor; all, cpu, gpu, time, network
# which temperature sensor to use for cpu and gpu temperature
# to show the temperature in Fahrenheit instead of Celsius
# cpu throttle point; cpu temperature when the text should turn red

The app uses following permissions:
"android.permission.SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW" Needed for floating window, draw over other windows.
"android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" Read data to show e.g. Cpu frequency, temperature etc.
"android.permission.VIBRATE"

Request
If you´d like to use the app in your native language, you can!

How?
Download the string resource file, copy it and the translate the underlined part, for example
<string name="settings">Settings</string>
becomes
<string name="settings">Instellingen</string>
and post it in this thread.

Thanks!

Very nice app.
Thanks dude

That's a nice idea. The app is working without problems as far as I can tell. Great job man!

Amazing app! Thanks man!

Nice app

Nice app - similar to the one developed by Chainfire (called Perfmon) but this one shows you the awake time and the temps.

Thank you for this

Nice app. Would be nice to have a widget like that.

Bugfix

Temperature warning not showing in horizontal layout

 

[DivintyQQ]

Thank you for this! Really helpful for monitoring governor and hotplug.

Update
Rewritten
Much smaller now
# no notification
# no more StandOutWindow library
# improved long press detection

Because of a change in package name,
please delete previous version, else you'll end up with 2

Request
I'm trying to get the app to work on other phones, so if you have another phone, please test what's working.

If there's no cpu temperature, that probably means that the app can't find the temperature files. These are not the same on every phone.
If the phone is rooted, you can help me by copying and pasting below code in command line, with for example this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm
And posting the outcome here, so I can add the missing file.

su
find /sys -type f -name *temp* -print0|while read -d $'\0' f; 
do printf "$f= "&&cat "$f";done;


Thanks!

Gpu temperature is a bit more difficult, because you need to find out which temperature sensor is for the gpu, I found that information for the oneplus in
/etc/thermal-engine-8974.conf

Reported working on:
OnePlus fully working
Moto X gpu temperature not working
Samsung S4 gpu temperature not working

Thank you!!

Update
# used some icons instead of text
# option to show window in status bar

Edit
The app is fully working on the Sony Z3 Compact, it even uses the same files for cpu temperature and gpu temperature, maybe because it also has a snapdragon 801, but I'm not sure about that.

I must be missing something but how do I reopen the window after having tapped on it to close it?

Because opening the app from the drawer takes me to the preferences screen.

You're right, that's not very clear, I'll see if I can change that.
For now just change something in the preference screen and a new window will open.
Thank you for your reaction
