[APP][ROOT][4.1+] Kernel Toolkit Kernel Settings

[Heisenberg420]

Kernel Toolkit allows you to manage kernel settings on your rooted device. This app is a solo effort, my main goal is to simplify kernel tuning and provide a clean looking modern UI with the lovely new material design.

The app is stable, however not entirely feature complete. Expect frequent updates with new features. I wanted to get the basics working and published as soon as possible, to get feedback and all bugs worked out.

Currently it provides all the fundamental settings for kernel tuning. There are several other features that are currently in development that will be added very soon.

Development Update
- The app is ready to be translated to other languages. If you'd like to see the app in your language, please let me know via posting or PM. I will send a auto-translated set of strings to someone who speaks the language to make revisions. The process is very fast and the app will be updated promptly. new
- Before you leave a poor rating in play store, please let me know what I can do to improve the app. This app is the result of listening and responding to feedback and criticism, I take all recent feedback into consideration during every update.

Features
- Live device stats
- Time in cpu states with custom references
- Adjust kernel settings:
- Cpu governor
- Cpu governor parameter control
- Gpu governor/max frequency
- I/O scheduler

- Enabled/disable system executables including Mpdecision, Pnpmgr

Recommended settings for Lollipop
The following are changes I made on the stock kernel on my GPE m8
- multicore power savings: enabled (1)
- minfree settings: medium

Default minfree settings on lollipop are very aggressive. If you have at least 1 GB of RAM you should lower the values.

I get FC upon the opening of the app and I tried to clear cache and data for it and it's not working for me.
I send the report through the google, if you didn't received it let me know how and I try to redo it again, might help you find the problem.

Looks nice brah! Thanks for the application!

Force closes on my MTK6592 device (octa-core)

Exception class name: java.lang.NullPointerException
Source file: LinuxSystem.java
Source class: com.dsmartapps.root.kerneltweaker.LinuxSystem$StatsPoller
Source method: onReadCores
Line number: 647.

I'm guessing this is because of the 8 core processor?

Force close Nexus 5 euphoria OS 29th build

 

[r4svob]

Nice

Looks great, I'm gonna try it right when I get home

 

[Heisenberg420]

Hey guys, thank you guys for reporting the FCs.

These are very simple bugs to fix i'll try to get an update out later today.

This was sort of expected with release as this app can't be tested on an emulator since the emulator has no kernel files. Please bear with me and don't give any bad ratings in the play store just yet!

Just tested on my Galaxy S4 running CM12 and it FC'd. Hopefully fixed in next update, looks good from the screenshots though!

 

[Heisenberg420]

Okay update has been pushed out. Should be in the play store within an hour or so.

Most FCs have been fixed. In some cases I did a temporary work around until I figure out whats going on on some devices system files.

There is one issue on some devices thats causing a crash when reading the min/max frequencies which is strange because they should be the same on all devices. Its possible this is caused by missing busybox installation. You can install it via playstore if your rooted. If your still getting FCs and are familiar with ADB cmds, I may need your help by running a few cmds to look at your device files. I might make a debugging apk that reads your system files if anyones willing to help out. I'll keep you guys posted.

Until then stay with me my #1 priority right now is to get this working on all devices!
