[How To] Add percentage to the battery icon - HTC Amaze 4G

Prerequisites:
1. You need an unlocked boot loader.
2. You need root.
3. You need a PC with adb that can see your phone
4. Your phone needs to have USB debug enabled
All of these are well documented here in the forum.
On the PC grab the two apk files that the UOT kitched needs:
Code:
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk
Now go to the UOT kitchen and choose your battery style from the battery tab.
Next click on the "File Upload" tab and upload your two files.
Then submit your work to the kitchen and wait.
When the kitchen is done processing, you have a download called UOT-*.zip. download that. And extract it somewhere on your PC. Now you need to push the files to your phone.
Code:
adb push SystemUI.apk /data/local/SystemUI.apk
adb push framework-res.apk /data/local/framework-res.apk
Next you need to adb shell to the phone to remount the system partition as read-write and copy the files to their correct location. From the PC run "adb shell" Then, on the phone:
Code:
su
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p29 /system
cp /data/local/SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk
cp /data/local/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk
cd /data/dalvik-cache
rm *
Then reboot the phone. When it comes back up you should have your customized battery.
NOTE: This is all from memory so there may be some minor inconsistencies but the general concept is sound. The main thing you MUST do is unlock the bootloader and you MUST have root (temp-root should be fine)
NOTE 2: There are a lot more things that you can customize using the UOT Kitchen. I've only changed the battery but you should be able to change icons, taskbar, lockscreen and more. So, if you are comfortable doing so, have at it.
And one final note. This is the brute-force method. Once a CWM recovery is created for the Amaze then most (all?) of this is unnecessary and you can just flash the UOT zip file from recovery.

Here's a thought-let's all be patient and take one step at a time.
We need recovery before we start buggering around.

I agree 100% with this.
We need to be able to do backups with Clockwork as well as use other scripts such as fix_permissions, clear dalvik-cache, etc to prevent bricks, FC errors, etc.
Let's work on getting a recovery first.

It's only been tested on the 1.36.531.5 stock ROM(My Phone) but I imagine it will work on most all Sense 3.0 ROMS.

I flashed the stock kernel so that wifi could work on Android revolution rom. Wifi works now, but I'm unable to sync my phone with HTC sync, so that I can use adb. Any suggestions to what I can do to set up adb again? (I'm using a windows 7 laptop btw)

you can take Stock statusbar with percentage battery from V2T section in this post, extract framework-res.apk from it and replace battery graphics in it for any you like. You can use a Graphics replace from the same post for that.
