Battery status icon in top bar? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Does anyone know of a proven app for the Touch Diamond that can display a battery status icon in the top bar - i.e. next to the clock etc.?

You can try ArielBattery. It will show a battery icon together with percentage. It's also a free app.
You can also try the iSS Battery Monitor - this one will put a bar at the top or below the Start button whose length shows you the battery (no percentage). This one is not free, but if memory serves they have a trial version.

Exe files
How do I use these .exe files? ArielBattery is one of these. I run it from the desktop, but it says "... is not a valid Win32 application".

Run Ariel directly from your PDA. Perhaps make a shortcut in Programs. It's not a (desktop) Windows file...

Is there any way to auto-start it when I power on the device?

Sure, just copy it in your Windows\StartUp folder.

Try Batti at the link below. It's excellent and discreetly at the very top few pixels of your screen. You can colour the power state fades any way you like to match your theme i.e. I have mine from the HTC green through to black when discharging and bright white when charging.

Adding programs to OMAP Apps???

Hey guys, I know this is probably easier then i am making it out to be but I have been trying and trying to figure out how to make my Omap overclock when i run certain applications. Is there a way to know what names to use for what applications? Does it need to have the full name?
Example : I want my clock to be at 245 or 260 when running Iguidance, or Map4PDA. I have tried just typing in iGuidance and setting the clock to 245, but it doesn't seem to run any faster. I have also tried Map4PDA and nothing happened. Is there a specific way this has to be done?
Thanx ahead of time, and please no burning!!! Just trying to find out how to do this.
(Side Note : DOWNLOAD THE NEW 3.3 V2 rom!!!!! Best rom ever, and can only get better!!!!!!!! MUCH THANX!!!!!
if you open the app that you want to change the CPU speed for, then either minimise it or close it so that you can see the desktop then tap and hold the battery icon on the battery status plugin a menue will pop up, then tap where it says "Add to Appl.-list" it will show you the last ap..just click it and it will be put into the Omap Apps tab and you can adjust the speed from there.

Scroll down and find the link for BatteryStatusExt.1.04.beta2.CAB. Install it. Then just go into options to the "App Based Overclocking" tab, or something like that.

you need to make sure you go to the Omap Apps tab and have a check in the " Application based overclocking" box for it to show up

I have done that, and it still doesn't work. I am downloading the beta2 right now thank you for the link texas.
I ju8st tried the link and installed, and BAM, it works now. Thank you VERY VERY MUCH!!!!! My Map4PDA is working much much faster, and my iGuidance is speedy as ever!!!
I use the Iguidance for turn by turn directions, and then i use the Map4PDA for traffic jams if i hit one.
(iGuidance doesn't have any overlay of the traffic. If anyone knows of a GPS program with turn by turn directions and voice promts with traffic included, please do tell! Would be much easier to do it that way then to have to switch between the two when i encounter trafrfic jams. Thanx guys)
sorry....i have a bunch of cabs that i install whenever i put a new rom in my phone and i forgot that the new beta battery status was one of them..i thought it was the same as on this rom..sorry bout that lol
seems like app based overclock do not work on wm6. i tried : window title, exe filename, still its not changing cpu speed.

Memory Status application like Battery Status tool

Is there a such program like Battery Status that can be on the home screen or bottom task bar like in SPB mobile shell with an icon and everything..I wanna link to my memory, instead of having to go through start > settings > system just to get to the memory....if anybody can redirect me to the link or thread that would be great. Ive scoured the software and general Kaiser forum with no luck. I dont wanna have to install spb mobile shell just to have this one tool. I wana be able to shortcut to my memory and see my storage and program memory usagee easily on my today screen. I know there has to be some sort of .cab for this.
Bottom Task bar icon cab file for Memory usage app.
just need an application for memory so i can check memory usage quickly like on the bottom task bar or something...like a battery status thing but for memory. If anybody knows an application for this on the bottom task bar so i dont have to go through start - settings - memory everys single time iw anna check my memory...i wish the taskbar had something like that for memory instead of telling you what items are being used and how much memoryt hey are taking up
maybe simplyifing the title will help in finding a memory status tool.
- thanks to whoever can help me find this application

battery status already does this lol. just click on ur storage card memory and it will bring up the page u want. im using the newest version 1.05 or something
doesn't task manager have the feature you want?
task manager doesnt show your memory usage percentage and you have too go through the options tab in the task manager to get to the memory, its not like having something on your today screen or at the bottom of the screen
@moegdaog:
battery ststus can show you your memory status... pleace check you configs, an you will see, what you want to see

task manager 2.0 and above shows memory percentage and it is finger friendly. try it, you can find it somewhere on xda (there is more than one version, so choose one that fits your needs)
ok thanks ill give a new task manager a try

Temperature in status bar

Can somebody point me to an app that can display the temperature directly in the status bar? BatteryIndicator only shows the percentage and I have to unlock the phone and pull it down in order to see the temp. Is there an app I can use to display the battery temperature (or CPU temperature) directly in the status bar?
Battery Status Pro does this.
[Edit] just noticed you wanted it displayed in the status bar. Don't know of one. Sorry.
I just use battery life widget on my main home screen. It shows temp right there for you on your home screen.

I don't want a widget, I just want the temperature displayed in my status bar. If you know an app that does that, please let me know.

I've seen one around, but can't remember its name.
Anyway, there's one for sure, just keep searching.
There's an app called tempmonitor but it shows systems temp not battery.... I think
Ijust searched for it and it looks like they're having trouble with it if you have froyo

Try with BatteryTime Lite
I too seek this functionality.
BatteryTime Lite gives a charge percentage in the status bar, but does NOT offer the ability to display the temperature in the status bar. You can drag down from the status bar display and see the temperature, but that is just as inconvenient as having to go look at a widget.
So, we keep looking...
Respectfully, I would like to know why this is important to you.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
I am learning about over clocking, and I am concerned about overheating by running the CPU too fast. So I wanted to watch the battery temperature while I did my normal phone activities.
It looks like temperature is something that must be polled, (rather than receiving as an event) so this sort of functionality, specifically within the status bar, may be unattractive for a developer, because the polling would be more of a drain on battery and CPU, than just posting the new status when the notification comes in.
use "TempMonitor lite". It gives you a small icon in the status bar with the temperature of your battery. It's what i use for it. Good luck

Thanks!
As soon as I figured out to set the display color to white, it worked like a champ.
(The black default was invisible, and appeared non-working.)
Did someone answer this question? Interesten in app like topic author!
Found one, use battery monitor widget with a skin showing battery temp from here:http://www.3c71.com/notifications/ccc71.bmw.icons.ttc1.apk
