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

[sklchan]

Possibly, yes, we'll have to see what's going to happen
There are 2 problems
1 The data that CpuFloat can access

Since Android 5 Google has made it more and more difficult to read system data, such as GPU and CPU temperature.
This is because of the Sepolicy for reading system files
OEMs can follow Google or not
Only solution I can think of is using root access, however I'm not using a rooted device these days
Or Google could add a geek API to Android with system data, which I don't think will happen​

2 Floating window

Possible solution could be PIP (Picture in picture), I don't know
Again, we'll have to see what's going to happen​

It is really bad more and more restrictions toward those system files, I simply don't understand why they make it totally in-accessible if just of security sake why don't just make those files read only and not totally un-reachable...

@waterdaan thanks for this amazing app. i was wondering if you could add the ability to show which cpu core is using which governor.

Since all the cores in a cluster seem to use the same frequency I was wondering if it would be possible to show just 1 little core and 1 big core to save space for other readings?

@waterdaan, any plan to release CPUfloat source code in GIT for others further development/enhancement?
Thanks.

Thanks.

No plans in that direction

It's amazing how well CpuFloat works, being such a light app and small in size. It would be even better if it had the option to show descriptive icons for the values instead of text, also for the status bar.
And it would be nice if it included the option to show the available storage space.
Anyway, many thanks to @waterdaan for this great app.

Thanks, you're right about the icons

Why this app is not updated for 3 and half years?

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"

Thank you so much for such a great app
Please add battery percentage too ,if its possible
Thanks
