Found this while searching for xxhdpi battery icons. I haven't tried it yet but it looks awesome. Maybe now we can build some batteries and get back our battery selection mod from the S3..

I've been trying to port the Super Circle Battery with % and I got as far as getting it show on the hero (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7429745&postcount=11). But when the battery depletes, the meter is stuck on 100 until the actual battery percentage is below 90 then it shows 80 on the meter.
I know that the original battery goes in increments of 20, but seeing as Fightspit got it working on Desire in increments of one, I was wondering if the same is doable for our beloved Hero?
[EDIT] AFAIK this works for CM-based ROM's, or at least there's a workaround through Spare Parts that allow one to add a text overlay to the battery with percentage going in increments of one. I'm not sure that they're related, seeing as the same pictures going in steps of 20 are still in the background. [END OF EDIT]
I hope that makes sense to you
Bye for now!
I have VanillaEclair and there are spare parts setting on integrated spare part to show exact battery precentage on battery icon.
I did little googling and I believe that CM and CM based ROM's often does have this possibility to tweak user interface on integrated spare parts.
It's working great, however I don't know if it's possible on sense.

Yeah, I forgot about mentioning I meant for Sense-based ROM's. Seeing as it has been done on Hero before, I hope that it'd be possible to achieve on a ROM that's not Vanilla/CM.
I will clarify that I'm talking about Sense ROM's
So I was looking through the metamorph forums and noticed several of you have a very sweeet looking battery icon. It was like the percent battery left inside of a circle of colors(green) and it replaced the lame default battery icon. How do I get this?
You flash bionixs rom. Or flash accurate battery from somewhere in these forums.

If you are on the stock rom you can get them here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=784867
I flashed nerov3 and now ive got that plain little green battery indicator. Isnt there a way to spruce that up, make it show a percentage?
Go to the themes and apps section and flash Slightly Better Gingerbread. It really cleans up the look of Nero, and includes a percentage battery.
I was wondering if anyone has a CRT effect for switching the screen off but without a battery mod?
I know there's plenty mods which contain the CRT effect but they usually include other mods as well. I like the original simple battery symbol, never been a fan of the circle or percentage mods
I'm running VillainRom1.1 and i know VillainTweaks has the CRT effect but it also installs a circle battery with percentage.
i am also interested in this.....any help....
I'm guessing due to the lack of response that it is not possible. I thought it would be easy for someone with development experience to just be able to remove the battery mod and leave the CRT effect.
Suppose i'll just have to put up with a cheap tacky battery mod!

Give people a chance to read your post. A more laidback approach might even motivate people to provide you with a solution.
The battery mod is just the battery icons replaced. If you download a CRT + Batt mod, just edit it yourself and replace the 'modded' battery icons for the original. Its quite easy
Or better yet run it through the kitchen and pick what you desire

There is that way as well
I have been running cm7 for a couple of weeks now and my battery has been stable and pretty good life. However last night I put a new epic blue theme on and this morning after a full night of charging after 1hr and 11 minutes and I am down to 81%? Looks great but does it pull more juice? Thanks in advance!

I suppose its possible, I have definitely noticed that some themes produce more lag than others so I don't think your idea is too outlandish...

I did not think it would matter I never noticed it before. However this theme looks awesome but curious if all this extra color and extras could cause more batery drain? I just turned down the brightness I am sure that did not help being on brightest setting.
In theory, I would say its possible. If a theme has more complex images then I would say it could take a little more effort for the phone to render them. But I wouldn't think it would make that big of a difference.
No, not on our device anyway. SuperAMOLED screens I think get better battery life on a dark theme, but not 100% on that. No matter what, the same amount of light is used on a color choice for our device. The "lag" users are getting is possible due to a conflict with image size or an image missing; not 100% on that either, but 99% sure that the answer to your question is no. UOT or Theme Chooser CM7?

Theme Chooser on cm7. And I did have to accept that it does not fit my screen and use anyways. It probably is not the theme it might have been a coincidence that it happen after the theme. Thanks for the clarification pretty much like I thought but it was weird to have a unusual battery drop right after I changed themes. Thanks again.

I have been using cm7 and it does AMAZING with the battery. I can actually last a day. What kills my bat life is leaving the data on, I think there is an error somewhere with the data controller with this port. If I turn data off with screen off,I can probably go 5 days (but little to no usage). But if I turn data on and leave screen off,I might last 10 hours
