There are no warranties. Use this app at your own risk.
flowOSD - is an open source application to control hardware and show OSD messages on ASUS ROG Flow x13 notebooks. For work it requires only ASUS Optimization Service (which is installed with ASUS System Control Interface drivers). I wrote this app to avoid installing MyASUS and Armoury Crate utilites (this is my personal preference).
This app is tested on GV301QH model (120Hz WUXGA display). The proper functionality with other modifications are not guaranteed.
flowOSD shows the following OSDs:
- Keyboard backlight level changing
- TouchPad is disabled/enabled
- Display refresh rate is changed
- CPU Boost is disabled/enabled
- Performance Mode Override (Turbo/Silent)
- System Power Mode
- Discrete GPU is disabled/enabled
- Power source is changed (AC/DC)
- Microphone state (muted/on air)
Also shows the current charge (discharge) rate of the battery. All of these are optional and can be configurable (except keyboard backlight - its indicator always is shown when backlight changes).
Dark and Light system themes are supported.
Dark theme:
Preview3-Osd.mp4
Light theme:
Preview3-Osd-L.mp4
flowOSD allows you to control the following parameters:
- Processor Boost Mode
- Performance Mode Override (Turbo/Silent)
- System Power Mode (Best Power Efficiency, Balanced, Best Performance)
- Display Refresh Rate (these parameters are set depending on the power source - AC / DC)
- Discrete GPU (you can turn it off to save battery life)
In addition, flowOSD provides customizable shortcuts for the following keys:
- Fn+F4 (AURA)
- Fn+F5 (FAN)
- ROG key (works only if ASUS Armoury Crate Interface is disabled in BIOS)
- Fn+C
- Fn+V
Also flowOSD disables the touchpad when the laptop becomes a tablet (is configurable).
Note:
If ASUS Armoury Crate is installed, please remove hotkeys to avoid conflict with the Armoury Crate.
