Uses up way too much cpu processes itself. Lowest I seen it run was at 16% constantly. Highest was 56% constantly and I was just scrolling up and down. Bring down how much processes it uses and it will be a great program. Ive only downloaded 2 progs so far, this and sports tap so I know this is the one lagging the phone. – cliq xt

Hello David,
Thanks for your post. here a few answers:
The task tab dont show android internal process. thoses can be responsible for some cpu load.
From measurment i made, the CPU load due to Android System Info is about 8% on HTC Tattoo and 4% on a nexus one.
When you scroll, the raise in cpu load is due to android event system, you can see detail in the bug filed here:

Hello, I used “Android System Info” on Samsung GalaxyA(based on TI OMAP 34xx Processor). when i look at the CPU section of the application, it says “600Mhz” but Samsung officially said “The application mis-read the cpu info, it should be 720Mhz”. I wonder if who is telling the truth, application? or Samsung? I hope i can have your advice.

Hi, I’m using HTC Dedire (Bravo), this app working good.
My Dedire doesn’t have http proxy setting, but I found it by this app.
That mean, is it possible to set http proxy by making software?

Hello
I just tried this on my evo. Sweet! So far, it’s well thought and should replace several overlaping apps that only cover a small % of your apps.
QUESTION – IF I’m not doing active tweeking for battery life or performance, am I better off disabling this apps? How do you use it?
Thanks!
June 20, 2010 at 14:28 |
Help my telephone stopped working after downloading several apps. This app seemed to be the one with the ability to affect the file android.intent.action /permission
June 22, 2010 at 05:21 |
Great app. Gives you a complete snapshot of your entire OS. Doesn’t use much battery either.
June 23, 2010 at 04:05 |
What can I do for my ram usage? I’m done to 17%.
June 28, 2010 at 18:13 |
Where can I download the app.
I am using an Archos device which is android based but does not have access to the android market. It uses AppLib.
A zip file with a note that says if you are not going through Market it might not work would be good.
June 28, 2010 at 23:04 |
if you look for it, you may find some package to install the android market on archos device
April 8, 2012 at 20:01 |
I have an Archos 80 G9 turbo ICS (android 4.0) if your using a gen. 9 android base you do have access to the Market. Don’t go thru the applib. I don’t know if this app is available thru google play but you can try there. Hope this helps.
July 2, 2010 at 13:18 |
That’s a nice app!
But I got one question:
Why exactly does it gather my GPS coordinates on Startup and why does it need to take photos? I would love to use and even donate for it, but since I’m pretty careful regarding my personal information, I don’t like that.
Please remove or at least explain those requirements and your app shall be one of the most useful apps on the market!
Thanks!
July 2, 2010 at 18:10 |
Hello,
You are right to be careful.
So, to explain it, the LOCATION permission is used by admob (the ad banner)
the CAMERA permission is required to gather all information about camera (in the system tab)
the INTERNET perm is also for admob
the READ_LOG perm is used to display logs
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE perm is for saving logs in sdcard and also to save bug report
TELEPHONY_STATE perm is used to gather all telephony info (system tab)

Like the latest update. One question though. Beside some of the apps there is a lock symbol. What does this mean
July 3, 2010 at 08:36 |

the lock symbol appears when the application is copy-protected.

Start by check logs if there is something unusual. After, you can check if there is application with strange permissions.
June 12, 2011 at 22:51
Hi. Love this app. Original moto droid here. In what event log should i look for strange or unusual? Any pointers on what i should consider unusual and possibly spyware? Is there more info that can help me to understand and decipher the event logs? Thank you.
July 17, 2010 at 20:44 |
Under the system info there’s the environment section. I opened that and at top I saw Root directory:/system. I am trying to find out if that means my moto droid is rooted or not? Can you help please?
July 24, 2010 at 17:38 |
Hello Alicea,
root directory is a folder containing system files. It is not linked to the “rooted” state.
If your device is rooted, you should have possibility to become “superuser” aka “administrator” aka “root”.
An easy way to check is to dowload a terminal application on your device and try the command “su”.
Hope it will help

ES

Great app! SDCard usage percentage is wrong on my Nexus One: it shows 96% when Max=3773.5Mo and Free=3657.9Mo. It should probably show 4% …
( Using Android System Info 1.10.3 on Nexus One 2.2 )
August 7, 2010 at 13:56 |
is the glass half-empty or half-full? 😉
there is no wrong percentage, it shows available ressources. In your case, it indicates that you have 96% available.
Anyway, if you think it would be better to show used ressources instead of free ressources, let me know 🙂

I experienced some strange behaviour with GPS on my HTC Dream (G1) on Android 1.6: Receiving coordinates way off (each second), my location was jumping all over the city.
I don’t understand why, but after uninstalling the ASI app (downloaded today, forgot the version, sorry) the problem disappeared and my GPS is spot on again.
Too bad, because apart from this issue I found ASI a very VERY impressive app.
Hope this is of any use to someone. Keep up the good work, ES!
August 7, 2010 at 22:11 |
this is pretty strange. Can you try to reinstall ASI to check if there is the problem?
ASI doesnt use GPS itself, but admob use it. On next release, i’ll remove the FINE_LOCATION permission, so admob wont use GPS anymore

How do I update stuff in the “System” tab? For instance, when I unplug the phone while in the app, it will read “Charging” and a percentage which will never change (or, at least not as long as I had patience watching).
Only way to update I found was thru a FC and restart.
What gives? Perhaps an ‘Update’-option?
August 13, 2010 at 16:22 |
Currently, there is no refresh. If you want to refresh info, you have to exit using the back button. Beware, if you press the home button, you dont exit the app, you put it in background.
I think i’ll release an update this week end that should have an update button.

I have weird stuff that show up like clowned items and remote access granted and Verizon says they don’t know about it. What is going on. I have weird things happening and who is flurry agent, ad mob, check in service etc. Please help.
August 14, 2010 at 09:30 |
Could you give more informations? what are “clowned items”?
for “remote access granted”, i think you have one or several apps using remote access. I’ll make an update of “Android System Info” that will display all permissions used by apps. So you could check which apps use remote access.
flurry agent is a tool embedded sometimes in apps to do some usages stats (ex: bug tracking)
admob agent is used to display ads
Regards
October 16, 2010 at 16:40
I believe he means *cloned* items. I noticed this behavior when I kept playing around with “matrixcat” live wallpaper settings; after a while there were dozens of copies of matrixcat showing. However, they all had different PIDs, so it was probably accurate. Rebooting the phone got rid of the extras. It was a problem with the live wallpaper; not OSmonitor.
August 16, 2010 at 23:45 |
Just wanted to know if it was possible to have the app go into lanscape when tilting the phone. If its available, how can i fix it. If its not ontegrated, its just a suggestion for future versions of the app. Thanks
August 20, 2010 at 21:51 |
Is there a pay option so that admob will be disabled? I like your program. But I had location tracking ads.
August 20, 2010 at 22:58 |
Awesome app 🙂 for a beginning Android user but an IT techie, it has given me HUGE amounts of info about my new phone — my only wish is that it could overcome the “locked” apps by ATT on my Aria… 6 STARS!!!

What does all this mean please & am I compromised? After date & time in 1 of the log entries your app sais; “E/Tethering” followed by the statement “attempting to remove unknown iface, ignoring, usb0” ( not sure if its in that exact order…)
Also: another log entry sais something like “dispatcher thinks it is finished but.. “. What/who is a dispatcher in this case & what does the log entry mean?
Is there a place to go with a list of all the different types of log entries & what exactly they mean?
Thank you very much – cool app just hoping there is 1 reference library… we can go to look these things up! I have ALOT of other questions like these !
September 12, 2010 at 09:38 |
Hello,
It is not easy to answer without complete logs. But from what you wrote, it seems that you had an error while using tethering.
Are you using an official rom?

Great App, jut downloaded it to my brand new, from ebay, Irobot Apad..
I have a question (or three :): Under CPU it shows BogoMIPS as 499.71, is this the CPU speed ? as item was sold as 800Mhz.
All through the tabs it states Telechips but is sold under the title Rockchip, what’s the deal here, I thought they were totally different CPU’s ?
And Under Memory Tab > Total RAM is 144MB, now this doesn’t sound like the 256MB it was sold as ?
Have I been ripped here ? Any help appreciated before, already had the first one delivered with a cracked screen, don’t want to go off the deep end with this guy, at least un-armed.
I want to develop on this thing and i’m feeling that it’s not all it’s been sold to me as…?
October 16, 2010 at 22:20 |
Bogomips shows calculation power. Frequency is shown a few lines under.
Also, for the ram, it shows max available. It is less than official spec because part of this ram is reserved for the system.
October 19, 2010 at 14:01 |
Can you fix initial order of application list? I.e. alphabetical. Ideally it could remember the last order and filter.
Thanks for great application.

I have been using Android System Info app to track unusual CPU behavior. This happens 2 or 3 times a day – the phone gets unresponsive. When I open this app, it shows me that my CPU is pegged at 100%, but it doesn’t show me any specific app that is using 100% (or anything that adds up to 100%).
At this point I start killing apps that have fluctuating levels of memory usage (with no corresponding CPU usage) and I can almost always nail it on the 1st or 2nd try now. CPU will drop to normal instantly. The offending app is all over the map, with Internet, andriod.process.media, Mail, com.google.process.gapps, YouTube and sometimes HTC Sense being the most common offenders. Every time these are showing zero CPU usage.
I’m so glad that I have that app to work around this issue, but I wish it would accurately display the offending app. Any idea why these offending processes / apps would show zero CPU but still be chewing it up like crazy?
Great work. Love the app
November 12, 2010 at 18:35 |

An excellent collection of data and function. I wish the Tasks list would remember the chosen Sort between invocations, or even make CPU the default; to me this its most important function (“what process are consuming my CPU right now?”)
What I REALLY wish, to make this the perfect dashboard (IMO 😉 is to make the other panels in the dashboard besides Battery clickable, and allow an arbitrary application to be associated with each. Thus I could invoke my favorite file manager, app manager, network monitor, or whatever, all from the same initial display, now become supremely useful!
November 25, 2010 at 06:22 |
Great app. Is there a way to save sort preferences? Annoying to have to sort it everytime. CPU usage for example
December 2, 2010 at 11:53 |
Until recently this app was showing about 16% cpu usage when the phone wasnt doing anything special.
Now it shows about 76% of which the Androis System Info proces takes up 51%
Is this the overhead of the program itself? It didnt show up before and I even read that internal processes linked to Android System Info shouldnt be shown at all… so whats happening here?
December 3, 2010 at 12:11 |
So its not just me. This started 3 days ago.
December 3, 2010 at 20:15 |
I have been using this for a while and love it. It always seems to suck up about 10 – 15 % of the CPU when running but I would think that is normal. However, the other day I downloaded my flash update and now when I run Android System Info it shows that it is sucking up about 75% of the CPU? Is the new flash update interfering with it? Using an EVO 4G.

Hi, I like ASI, it provides nearly all information I need. But what is with Radio Version? On my Desire ASI writes in System > BuildInfos: “Radio: unknown”
But in the Android Setting, the Radio is listed. (BaseBand-Version …..)
Why does ASI not display this information?
And an additional question: Is it possible to determine the RIL Version? I would like it if ASI could display this too.
Best wishes
February 1, 2011 at 20:48 |
Informations i return are the one provided by the manufacturer. In case of Desire, HTC didnt filled correctly the radio field.
January 23, 2011 at 13:20 |
Great app! Works fine on my Galaxy S, but on my rooted Nook Color the System Info tab doesn’t display screen, sensors, environment, mount points, features and javaproperties data.
February 1, 2011 at 20:50 |
The Nook has an android version which is not validated by Google. So, some APIs are not fullfilled this explain why ASI doesnt show all infos.

February 1, 2011 at 03:37 |
The only thing that I don’t like with this app is Flurry Agent.
Android System Info is using Flurry Agent, which sending statistical data / usage pattern via 3G or WiFi. And too bad, this cannot be disabled.
Astrid app is using Flurry Agent also, but you can turn it off. Please add option to turn this Flurry Agent off.
February 1, 2011 at 20:56 |
I use flurry to keep track of bugs (aka exceptions), and stats about number of people downloading my apps. I’m pretty sure that volume of data sent is very small and not noticeable in regard of others services like gmail, gtalk, android market etc.

One question I have is, how accurate is the max available RAM value?
I have an HTC Droid Incredible. Specs show 512 MB. Software shows 412.
I have a similar problem with my LG Fathom. But not 100MB.

I have a Cruz tablet (mips32) and don’t have access to G Droid market. Is there any way to get this app to sideload? Thanks!
April 11, 2011 at 18:00 |
I tried to send an email to the address in the about box, but it bounced.
Just wanted to suggest a feature I’d like to see:
When the user chooses “Save log”, offer an option for the user to add a note. I don’t care whether you append or prepend that note to the logfile itself, or save it in a separate file such as {same-filename}-note.txt
Here’s why:
When my system is acting strangely, I will sometimes save the logfile so I can figure out what’s going on.
However, I may not have a chance to actually delve into the logfile until much later – at which point I’ve often forgotten why I had saved that logfile in the first place.
It would be nice to be able to add a quick 1-sentence note to provide some context. “Navigation failed” or “Recording a standard boot” or “Why did it just vibrate?”
Just a suggestion. Aside from that, it’s a great app.
April 22, 2011 at 13:38 |
great app! I have one question: the statistics of the CPU frequency in the System tab are updated only when the phone is switched on or even when on standby?
May 5, 2011 at 05:47 |
it’s updated each time you restart the app.
April 23, 2011 at 19:44 |

May 2, 2011 at 09:10 |
Great app; I use it frequently.
Two things that would put this icing on the cake:
• Comma-delimited separators for numbers (especially in usage history) to make it more readable, and
• The ability to copy an individual log entry into the clipboard.
Thanks again for such a useful application!

Hi there.. I’m looking for a small widget (1×2) to display battery and SD-card. On Galaxy Tab there is a “build in” SD card and the external SD card. Your widget shows the internal, can i configure the widget to display the external?
Thanlks in advance

The system tab has a blue exclamation mark(!) on it and when I select it, the list that comes up keeps blinking and I cant select any folder?
The other tabs are Ok!..
June 18, 2011 at 14:05 |
Can you pls add a feature to save the info’s in the System-Tab to a file?
Would be great.

Hello, i like this app and using it on my 7 inch android tablet.
One thing i do not understand is that it is telling me how much
space i have left on my SD card. But i don’t have an SD card plugged in. Thank you
June 28, 2011 at 18:12 |
In fact, the extra internal memory is declared as sd card storage. The real sd card is declared as “external sd card”.
But i agree, it is not clear…

Hey programmer guy! There is a bug with your app on honeycomb: The menu doesn’t show up! It looks fine and scales nice, but there is no menu gadget on the screen, and since there isn’t any hard menu button on the tablet we are screwed, could you fix that? 🙂
June 28, 2011 at 18:11 |
thanks for reporting it. I’ll try to get a honeycomb device to fix it. I should be able to fix it in 2 weeks.

Hello from germany,
great app!!
Under battery/history:
– What do the colors of the bars (red/blue) mean?
– What is the program named ‘0’ under networkusage?
If I tab on it, the app crashes
Under log:
– what do the different textcolors mean?
June 28, 2011 at 21:09 |
OK, except the last question i found all answers by google:-)
July 4, 2011 at 17:40 |
Nice app, but would it be possible to allow the app to detect/support
both portrait rotations, not just one? My tablet has physical keys
arranged such that the current portrait orientation is a problem. All other apps I use allow this… Thanks.
July 9, 2011 at 14:35 |
Love the app. Had it since shortly after getting my Droid X last summer and it worked great until recently.
Since the VZW upgrade to Gingerbread got pushed out, the home screen widget updates erratically so now it is usually wrong about battery state, etc.; Oftentimes it just shows question marks for all three values. I tried removing the widget and reinstalling it, but that was no help. Tried uninstalling ASI completely and reinstalling (V1.17.2), but again, no help. Anything you can do would be appreciated, otherwise I’m back to depending on the battery icon in the status bar. 😦
July 14, 2011 at 12:40 |
Hi, just installed Vers. 1.17.2. I like your app but I dont like banner ad. As I’m not the first who is asking, is there in the meantime a possibility to donate to switch off the banner ad?
July 23, 2011 at 07:36 |
Well, i’m thinking about it. But as i work on theses apps only as hobby, i dont have much time.
I’ll try to see what can be done.
July 17, 2011 at 15:54 |
Can you add a feature that shows the last 3 time since unplugged times for the battery. I would like to have an idea of what the average time the battery is hold a charge is. Android OS gives you the current time since unplugged when you check under the battery, I’d like to have that extended to show the previous 2 as well.
Thanks,
Awesome app by the way.
July 23, 2011 at 07:34 |
might be interesting. I’ll try to add it for next update.
September 2, 2011 at 00:14 |

Questions regarding CPU Frequency Stats time:
Is time measured in milliseconds? I mean values in parenthesis.
Is it real processing time, or time processor is set to that specific frequency?

I really like this app, but really hate the advertisements. Any chance of getting same app without advertisments, I don’t see one in Market. Such a great app to have part of it covered up by advertisment. I’m sure if the ad free version price is reasonable, people will pay for it. I will.

When I click on download on the Android Systems Info page, I am beeing tranferred to another website, where I am supposed to download a program ‘iLividSetupV1.exe’. Is this a scam or a virus ? I simply want to download the app and transfer it to my tablet, which does not have android market access.
November 12, 2011 at 12:56 |
Where do you click on download? is it from android market web site?
Anyway, you shouldnt be transferred on another website. beware, it is probably a malware or a virus…
the right link is:

November 15, 2011 at 10:54
It was a link on this site, but now it is gone. Anyway, from Android Market I don’t know how to download apps to the Windows PC.

Very useful application, but I was wondering if it’s possible to remove ads by getting a paid app or making a donation. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 with fixed (monthly flat) rate for data mobile, but even though I use it mostly via wi-fi, I find annoying and risk-taking (expensive mobile data costs) this overload of avertising banners and ads. Do you plan to release soon an ASI pro paid app without ads? Thanks

just installed it and it is great. but how do i activate the camera-options? i have a android 4 rom

April 8, 2012 at 20:51 |
Hello, first of all I want to say I think you have a fantastic app with more information than I could ever want (or understand at this point in my computer literacy).
My first question, for now, concerns the system menu option
“Gtalk Service Monitor” – I get that this reports info on connection state (ie wi-fi), time, frequency.etc but, what does
“Heartbeat interval” mean?
also what’s the implication of the option
“send Heartbeat to server”?
Finally, does the running countdown timer after “alarm will trigger” mean that the cell phone will attempt to automatically reconnect to wi-fi?
That would add up because, unless I’m crazy (possible), since I’ve installed your app my cell re-connects to wi-fi unless I turn on airplane mode.
I know your very busy between tweaking this app and addressing everyone’s questions but, I’d surely appreciate an answer. I tried searching the web but I’ve had no luck.
Thanks in advance,
Pete (the butcher)

Hi,
I have a question, when restart from zero the app’s running time count ?
Thanks for your attention.
June 28, 2012 at 17:14 |
On my Sprint Epic 4G, the Telephony display includes values for Base Station Latitude and Base Station Longitude, which I believe are supposed to be the coordinates the cell tower is squawking. But the values displayed by Android System Info are nonsensical as geographic coordinates. For example, right now it shows Base Station Latitude as 435992, and Base Station Longitude as -1407299. (Base Station ID is 6707, which I know to be correct.)
Should the app be doing some math transformation on the lat/lon values, or what.?
June 28, 2012 at 19:44 |
Further research indicates that you do need to transpose the raw values returned by the API before reporting them. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5409696/why-getbasestationlatitude-keeps-returning-the-integer-max-value-unknown
In other words, the API returns an integer value that is .25 minutes, so there are 4 per second. * 60 seconds per minute * 60 minutes per degree == 14400.
So doing the math from that explanation, you just have to take those raw signed integer values that you report now for both Base Station Latitude and Base Station Longitude, convert to float and divide by 14400. The resulting value is precisely what it should be, expressed in decimal degrees. I have confirmed that empirically with the tower site.
June 28, 2012 at 19:46
EDIT: My last post should read:
In other words, the API returns an integer value that is .25 seconds, so there are 4 per second. * 60 seconds per minute * 60 minutes per degree = 14400.
June 28, 2012 at 22:02
thanks for the help. As i’m not in the US, I cant test 4G behavior. I’ll make the fix asap.
Thanks again!
June 29, 2012 at 13:58 |
Upon reflection, it may be a legitimate design choice to leave your app as it is. You are reporting accurately the raw Android system data. Or it might be more meaningful to end-users to convert to degrees for lat and lon.
August 1, 2012 at 09:53 |
Great source of information – thanks! BUT like many others, I dislike the admob banner. Would be prepared to pay/donate a suitable sum for an ad-free version. Thanks!
September 1, 2012 at 21:31 |
Hello Laurence,
Thanks for using my app. A lot of users are asking for it, i think i’ll make a pay version in a few weeks (with some more features). What price would you pay for it?
December 26, 2012 at 13:06
I would also gladly pay a small sum. Somewhere up to $2 or 1,50€.
Thanks for the good work.

In the app tab i see you have the option off deleting system apps eg, Google play, the camera app etc and my galxy note 10.1 is not rooted. So if i was to tap on the delet tab on 1 of these system apps would it delet or would it tell me i need root permissions etc.

Hi. Someone recommened this app, because it should show the stacktrace of aborted apps in jelly bean, with no other app can without root rights. unfortunately the stacktrace is not shown on my galaxy nexus. does anybody know why ?
