Runs only in landscape mode terminal.

An (ugly) icon is made for quick launching.

A very dirty hack (commenting out line 496 in cui.cpp) is made to make it work with android apps :P

---------

NetHogs is a small 'net top' tool. Instead of breaking the traffic down per protocol or per subnet, like most tools do, it groups bandwidth by process. NetHogs does not rely on a special kernel module to be loaded. If there's suddenly a lot of network traffic, you can fire up NetHogs and immediately see which PID is causing this. This makes it easy to indentify programs that have gone wild and are suddenly taking up your bandwidth.

Since NetHogs heavily relies on /proc, it currently runs on Linux only.

I check it with Jolla 1 and Jolla C. Misbehavior appears only on XA2.

Same on xa2 dual SIM.

Upgrade to latest version in OpenRepo is nice, or pls explain in detail how to compile on the phone.

Unfortunately I do not have the compiling and packaging tools right now. You can try to compile the new version on your phone.

Does not seem to work on XA2 Ultra with 3.0.2: Always keep asking whether I am really root although started via devel-su

 

 

Looks like a known problem that is solved in a more recent nethogs version

https://github.com/raboof/nethogs/issues/85

Could you please upgrade nethogs to the most recent version?
Thanks so much!
