CPU Spy

Doesn't work on my HTC sensation. Stock! It does work on my Asus tf300 however, that's why it gets two stars.

While this app can't read the states file on a stock EVO 3D running ICS(4.0.3), it works great on kernels/roms that it is compatible with. My issue is due to my ROM/kernel, not the app itself. But those of you using E3D's, keep this in mind.

Very useful and helpful app, lets me know what frequencies my phone is using and whether it's deep sleeping. If you flash kernels you should have this app...

Although CPU Spy needs a rooted HTC phone, it also requires custom ROMs with non stock HTC kernel for it to read the CPU states. Unfortunately stock HTC kernels don't supply this information for CPU Spy to read from, so unless you've flashed your phone or tablet with a custom kernel, don't blame the developer if doesn't work. CPU Spy works fine with my previous HTC Incredible S and Flyer P510e with custom ROMs, but not with leaked or official ICS Android OS that use original HTC kernels.

CPU Spy is a simple, small application that reads the processor state since the last reboot and displays them on your screen. It can identify at what clock speeds your system tends to run at. The application requires no special permissions so it isn't stalking your friends as you check your processor clock speeds.

I was able to see that something was chewing through my battery and my phone wasn't deep sleeping the way it should. But since I am a newbie and someone who for medical reasons is unable to learn another facet of the computer/electronics field, I have a favor to ask. Is it possible for you to list the likely apps or phone functions that run at each frequency? I had my phone running in deep sleep quite well, but now either I have added a new one that runs a lot or I use one a lot more now. I want to find it.

It was working until I get complaints about unable to read states file after update. Files are there but readable only by root. App should handle this and NOT ROM devs!

Great way to determine if your phone doesn't go to deep sleep. It always help me figure out the deep sleep issues and to test which kernel is better! Thanks dev. Is their any donate version?

If you have battery problems, this app can help you diagnose it. If your phone is off for a few hours it should go into deep sleep for those hours you don't use it. If it does not, you have a problem. This app will allow you to see that.

-I think it needs a lollipop update. I'm finding it slow to open and scroll. -Would love a total uptime state from unplugged, lollipop removed it from there new battery window.

A must have for a power tweaker. This uses no resources and works great at monitoring how hard your CPU is working. Helped me pick a good governor and detect battery usage spikes.

If you think battery is not lasting check processor state. If it's in a state for more time than deep sleep, then there is some app keeping cpu awake.

I have an 8 core note 3 with 1.9 Ghz clock, and the app says the phone uses only 650Mhz max clock speed...

I've been using it for quite some time now. It's works really well and does let me know, if they are any apps which might be interfering or preventing the phone from going into Deep sleep mode, when the device is not in use. ( Please note that this app does not pinpoint those particular stealthy apps). The information it provides is accurate enough. Works like a charm. Thank you so much Developer/team. :)

Perfect for those of us that like to have full control over our phones. I keep an eye out on everything with this app and its a phone saver for sure.

My phones battery was crap lately and was unsure why, then I checked this app and saw it wasn't properly going to deep sleep. All working fine now after a restart and disabling gps

Along with Better battery stats this app helped my identify a wakelock that was draining my battery ever since the phone was new. Now solved snd the battery life is twice as good. Well worth the small price.

Did what I needed and what it said. Helped me diagnos my problem.

Would be far more helpful if it reset the timer automatically after unplugging and reported the level the battery was charged to. Please consider adding these options.

Only show CPU clocked speed for all 8 core up to 1.5Ghz. What about the 2.1Ghz?

Is Good, but really needs multiple timers, including ones which reset after each charge cycle. Also a history and graphing function would be nice. Not working with latest CM10 builds for defy

Why do we have to hit the refresh button every time we want to get data? How difficult is it to change the data acquisition in a real time process?

You know Google at some point you're going to lose all your 'friends' when the market gets tired of your scam with Samsung. Hopefully an enterprising ethical company will step in with a device that operates with a lot more integrity. To coin a phrase "just sayin", enjoy it while you can cuz even OS challenged individuals like myself eventually figure out why they use 30 GB just playing Candy Crush.

I've waited more by this app, I've waited to control some CPU-related settings, but not. BTW fine app.

Must have for monitoring cpu frequency and deep sleep. To find The reason why your battery depletes

Keeps perfect record of how the CPU has been used. Must have for power users.

Great for keeping track of your cpu state times. Simple but oh so useful.

I didn't open it yet, but not requiring ANY special permissions in itself must be lauded!

Dear developer, could you please put a handy refresh button at the top right? :)

Just superb application. No battery drain now. Download advanced task manager and battery info with CPU spy. Almost two days now and still battery indicates 26%. Wow just wonderful.

Brilliant little app. I have great respect for small efficient programs. This is one of them. Very useful to check out different CPU Governor and scaling options on rooted phones. Does what it says and does it well.

This did not work on my T-Mobile HTC Sensation. I am running ICS. Sorry for the 1 star, but not good if it does not work.

Great, yet simple software that enables one to see if the much desired deep sleep is being achieved, and what frequencies is the phone CPU frequenting. Very useful as a first step in detecting causes of excessice battery drain.

Does the job to see if your phone doesn't sleep as well as you do at night.

This app helped me alot to know how my cpu works and helped me adjusting the overclocking and underclocking settings

Best CPU monitoring app. No root and no fancy permissions. Perfect

Excellent app - Always installed on my phone to check deep sleep after installing new apps. Thanks dev.

Use full app to check your powermanagment. Not clear though if it is a continues running app, or reading a android native log, so I removed it after checking my sleep mode.
