Add Download/Upload detection

Post by jasonkhoo87 » 15 Nov 2013 02:35

Hope to see this features in new version.

Download/Upload rate can be detected and what I want is, if the download rate below treshold that I set, I can execute or toggle anything I want..

I did not have the time yet to check that the official APIs of Android really provide a reliable way to detect this so I can't promise anything yet.

I don't know if this is related to this issue, but there are lots of apps that use data traffic threshold (for example battery saver apps like juice defender and many others). This doesn't mean that this information is available somewhere?

There is an API to get the traffic of the mobile interfaces, total traffic and traffic per app since last device boot but there's no built-in way to detect the rate to my knowledge except by checking/calculating the rate constantly on my own which could become a battery hog.
I will provide an action to read the total data traffic (since last boot) in the next EAP which should allow to build some interesting flows.
