Can anyone provide better battery percentage? currently I am using battery indicator...

I use Circle Battery Widget, very simple but quite nice!

I want something that is position in the same place as the battery icon on the top right hand corner. I just cant believe android dont have this feature by default! It is better with percentage rather than just battery icon.

Unfortunately it will be possible only on rooted devices.
The Arc has been rooted so we just need some mods that help us with that.
I really hope CyanogenMod will be ported to the arc. It has this and many other cool functions like a Notification toggle.
Cheers

We just need the scripts, perhaps the stock gingerbread scripts from Modaco,CM7 or OTA N1 can help

or...
CM7 on Xperia Arc. That would be awesome!

That's why you shoul show to CM team that we are many users and not only 2 here: http://forum.cyanogenmod.com/topic/20708-sony-ericsson-xperia-arc/

Try Battery Minder, free from the market. You can put the percentage on the left corner of the top.

Done! I hope they start working on this ASAP.
Mod roms is the only reason I rotted my phone.

Once recovery is sorted, we'll be able to use the UOT Kitchen to try tweaking the battery images:

Try ZDBox available for free on the market. I am using it on my Arc. It is a great app which shows battery percentage as an icon, does the job of App to SD, got a good task killer and uninstaller...

I do like it, but isnt better if they are on original battery location? rather than the top left?? having two indicator instead of just one? Besides hopefully soon there will be a lot of theming after the root...make a lot of nice icons

Yes, I agree with that too. I will prefer to have the battery percentage indicator on the original battery icon on the top right corner.
It will be the same battery percentage icon modification as the X10.

Agreed!!..

Just twitt Paul O Brien of Modaco to build up a cuustom Rom, he will surelly add battery percentage and blinking lights for missed calls (hardware keys lights)

R64 percentage batt
Hi,
I've compiled a framework.apk using R64Theme batt indicator.
Push the framework.apk to \system\framework\
Credit to R64's blue theme

Thank you,
With what version of software will it working? Mine is 3.0.A.2.181 is it OK?
I can make backup of original framework.apk befor copying new but will my phone start if something goes wrong or will I need clear it with SUSE?

Im using 3.0.A.2.181 too..you should make a backup of the original as good practice, the phone should still boot if anything goes wrong but remember to enable USB debugging first
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App

Please note I have not unlocked bootloader so I can only use ADB, can not use fastboot to recovery. My phone is only rooted. So I need enable USB debuging to use ADB to replace original framwork.apk if phone will not boot, is it correct?

[MORPH] AOSP Gingerbread Status Bar (Updated for Nero Beta 3) 12/15

This Metamorph changes the status bar and status icons to the new Android 2.3 Gingerbread UI. Make sure you are using the latest version of Metamorph (1.9.13 or higher). I'm not responsible for anything you do to your phone.
For some reason JK6 doesn't like morphs. To install you must morph each app separately. If MM hangs, reboot and move to the next app.
WARNING:
Make sure USB Debugging is enabled in Settings -> Applications -> Development.
If you're using the standard TouchWiz launcher, this morph will remove the Messaging icon from the bottom dock. To get it back, open your applications, press menu, view type, customizable. Menu again, then edit. Find the Messaging icon, drag it back into the dock, then menu, save, menu, view type, alphabetical grid (or whatever you had it on before.)

How'd you get the 3G/Edge icons, wifi, signal bars. I searched for them in the sdk earlier and didn't find anything.
Didn't look deep enough. /system/app/SystemUI.apk
I noticed that after a second flash, the new battery icon was there, but within a minute, reverted back to the accurate battery mod that comes with Onyx...

Because Onyx has an accurate battery mod.
Yeah I figured that was causing the issue. Id rather have this battery icon, to unify the theme, but Im enjoying Onyx right now...
Steps to take?
Nice work. Glad someone put this out... Will it work for cm beta2 ?

It should, as long as it doesn't have an accurate battery mod. Another user said it was working on his Evo 4g on CM6.1

Unzip the file, remove everything but the signal icons, rezip, make sure it's named "Gingerbread_Morph.zip" and apply.
Is there any chance that a ASPOish pull down could be included in the future version?
Or is there a way I could possibly do this myself?

[MOD] Remove Notification Clock CWM flashable 02/04/11

This mod will remove/restore the clock in the notification bar.
- THAT IS ALL IT DOES - Whatever theme your using will remain untouched.
NOW CWM FLASHABLE!
I can only confirm this working with Bionix V, Bionix V 1.2.
try on other ROM's at your own risk.
I don't see why it should'nt work though.
Im not responsible for your phone and what you do to it!
Installation:
Download zip of choice
Place zip on SDcard
Flash Thru CWM
Reboot - expect long initial boot
Enjoy.
Thank you much
EDIT: Just in case anyone else pushes this mod...the phone will hang on a black screen for about 2 minutes before your launcher appears. I am assuming this is normal, just be patient...it will load
ok so i dont know if its coincidence but i copied the .jar, rebooted, was taking abnormally long, did a battery pull, rebooted phone and it works fine. But for some reason my xda app wouldnt open. i just unintalled then re-installed.. Goodbye annoying clock...

no you will retain the battery mod, it will only remove the notification clock -- any other themes / mods will remain intact and unchanged
Great. Thanks for the quick reply. Installing now.
no prob! enjoy.
Thanks for the mod. No more ugly white clock. Much appreciated.

I flashed this on nero5 and I can confirm that it went through. As far as if it broke anything I can not confirm. I'll report back if anything changes or fc's occur.
Edit: thanks
Looks good to me! Thanks again.

Looks awesome, is there any way this same method could be used to remove the AM/PM indicators?

i dont quite get you're question.
when you say AM/PM indicators, where do you see that?
this mod should take out the notification clock completely. AM/PM and ALL
if you're talking about AM/PM indicators in clock widgets / lockscreens or wherever else. then it's a different story.
No I mean a seperate mod that just removes the AM/PM instead of the whole clock.
from what i saw, they go together. cant have one and not the other. but i'll have another look if i find some time.
Thanks you!!! I've been looking for something like this.

[APP]MotoCharge Optimized for white/black statusbars !

NOTE: I just happen to tweak it more for better visual.
ATTN: Stay tuned for more versions of motocharge with modified visuals !
Do know that this app actually eats up battery (not much though) but if you're desperate to know on what % your battery is, then this is the application for you !
This application is meant to show your battery life in increments of 1% on the left side of notification bar.
I appologize if there's a bug with the application as i don't have my defy with me for now. So do report if there's such thing.

I can't get it to install.
Just says application not installed?
Tried downloading it in the web browser but now says "content not supported on this phone".
Is there something i'm not doing correctly?

Looking good! My ROM has a light grey status bar, so the white numbers makes it hard to read. Will there be a version with black numbers?
Thanks for your work!
OK i've got it sorted - had to uninstall the original version.
Only thing is can you make the numbers black as they are really hard to see in white.
Looks good though - well done and thanks

can´t install...
pays 4.xx rom
open the zip ....change the pictures with black numbers?
ull find icons in another thread (i think its circular battery something)
repack and done
When you install the application, you can go to the app drawer and go to motocharge and in that, i believe you can switch from Black bar to White.

Doesn't seem to change the font colour unfortunately.
I tried it in the original motocharge app and it didn't do anything on that either.

Same here on pays-rom 5.0 with black status bar, no white numbers.
Looking forward to it. Good luck with the tests.
Edit: red numbers <15 are visible though. Perhaps its a transparancy thing with your white number icons? Did you use transparant numbers at a white canvas?
I've attached the app for white status bar as well. Check the first post !
Can't get the white one to install. Tried uninstalling the old version but the new one tries but then states application not installed.

hi thank you for the great app but I also cannot install the white version on original 2.34 firmware.

Nice job there shad0wboss - great work
Thanks for the change for the white status bar it's working & looking really smart

Battery Mods!! (Updated 6-21-12 for New Extended QuickSettings!)

Finally got a chance to sit down and put together some battery mods.
Credits go to Jotha for allowing me to use many of his images.
His thread, along with credits for where he found the images can be found HERE
Now instead of flashing all of these mods just for a picture of the mod in action, I'm also going to use the images Jotha has from his thread. So please don't ask "how do I make my status bar look like that?!". The images from his thread are for battery reference only.
These are now updated with Mik's latest Extended Quick settings. Be sure to thank him.
You may get a Force Close of SystemUI.apk after the initial bootup, but ignore than and keep on keepin' on. The status bar will reload and keep on truckin'.

Well, being that the mods are based on failrly stock systemui (only modded quicksettings and the show 1x/3g) mod, I'd nearly guarantee their compatibility. This is for deodexed roms btw
I meant it working for odex lol. Guess I will wait until someone figures out how to get s-off without voiding the warranty.
If anyone's wondering, I flashed over stock, and it worked perfectly.
edit - only the battery indicator has changed when flashing over stock, not any of the other tweaks.

It will work for stock odex, but you have to delete systemui.odex. I'm using it right now.

[Q] Anyone doing special requests modding?

I thought about posting this is themes, but it is a question.
I prefer the stock feel of my OS with just a few tweaks. I hate the stock status bar lack of color. I want the original icons in cyan. I want the circle battery icon instead of the battery.
I need someone willing to build an .apk installer with my systemUI needs in it for me.
I've been using Jelly Beans 19 ROM and it's as close to perfect as any rom.
Also, if someone is willing to create a power boot menu with the recovery option .apk, that would be awesome.
I'm willing to pay reward/donate to anyone willing to help me out.
THANKS

Then my theme sounds right for you . There is options to skip the base theme and select status bar icon colors (they are stock just colored) a selection for toggles and plenty of battery choices. There is also S-Pen sounds and icons and mods for Clean Rom 3.5V.
The mods are all listed on my thead, check it out.

I can take one of the batteries above or from my other theme and possibly flip the image but it would have to be without numbers. Let me know. PM me.
