About PhoneStatus
PhoneStatus is a powerful and flexible tool enabling you to monitor all communications channels on your phone:
- Phone calls
- Phone SMS
- Phone MMS (not currently tracked)
- WiFi data
- GSM data
The data is tracked for a range of time frames:
- Total since you installed this APP
- Month, Week and Today
It is a simple task yet the code behind the scene is surprisingly complicated.
A background service is running, shown in the taskbar. This will wakeup only once every 30seconds (to save battery), sampling the current state.
You can initialise the counters, for Day. Week, Month and Total.
Of course: Total > Month > Week > Day
You can set limits trackers on all counters and across all timeframes.
In addition it will track, last call, last SMS for you
Sorry about all the Permissions asked for by this APP but it is needed for this type of application. See Permissions further down for permissions explanations.
I created this APP because I found no alternatives giving me this level of overview of my phones many communication channels.
A few words about the counters:
o PhoneCall (outgoing). This will count time from its starts ringing. So over time you will see that the outgoing call timer is slightly higher than what you'll see on the invoice from your operator. (Android OS limits access to triggers that make ity possible to distinguish between OffHook and InCall)
o PhoneCall timers count in steps of seconds
o Data counters use the IEC 80000-13 standard for data sizes. I.e. multiples of 1024. Data counters count in steps of bytes
The APP uses a few Kb of data in the APP's private dataspace. You'll find your backup files located on your main external storage module Format is XML. You can edit this file and reload backinto APP. However, the APP does not check the XML for correctness.
Strongly recommend you use the editting features in SETTING instead.
I hope you enjoy this APP.
