Description
This tool generates CPU loads. This tool launches several Android Services that continue to calculate SHA1 value of 2MB buffer that is filled by random data. You can control how many Android Services are launched by pushing button. Basically I think that CPU load is highest when you launch number of services as same as the number of the CPU Core.
*** It seems this tool is too hevy. According to user feedback, several devices were broken. So please use this app carefully. But this tool is using just MessageDigest#update() and MessageDigest#digest(). https://developer.android.com/reference/java/security/MessageDigest#update(byte[]) https://developer.android.com/reference/java/security/MessageDigest#digest() So if the device is broken, it is device's problem because device must ensure that all Android APIs work properly. And I think you can ask manufacture for repair. ***
Recent changes: Ver.1.0.1 - Add feature to start services automatically on boot

★★★★★
Wow, this app really works. It increases the load, just be sure to turn off battery saver, so this application can work effectively to produce load at maximum level.
★★★★★
The best app if you have a processor sleeping or not working this app tests your processors by heating your phone this app will help sleeping processors not die but won't recommend if you don't have sleeping processor
★★☆☆☆
Not even overheated, 36 temperature, while running all processes my device is plus, ofc such fake things can't make flagships & modern socs damaged. Cpu kinda understands its fake value so doesn't take much stress for processing it, really high-end devices can only be damaged by this app.
★★☆☆☆
It did the job, however, after a few times of use. I think it triggered the isp of our internet to think it was some kind of pirating. They shut down the internet for the weekend. And I have never done that. Phone is fine. But I think this is a trap.
★★☆☆☆
2 stars because it might warm up your phone a tiny bit, but it just eats your battery and is way too slow.
