Battery percentage MOD

Hello everybody!
Has anyone done a battery percentage mod to be used with Nexus S yet? I have done a research but couldn't find anything..
I prefer to see the percentage of battery left right there in the middle of the icon, instead of placing a widget on my desktop.

That would be a nice little touch to the display, Im sure it will come out soon , I havnt seen it yet...

My theme has battery percentage built in. I will try to do the same MOD for a non themed ROM.

See my app, there's a test version for the Nexus S CM7

Is the battery indicator app no good? It shows numerical percentage at the top of screen

Yeah, the battery mod is available, had it just a few days after the N-S came out even. I've got one running on my aosp build (n1), as well as on cm7 alpha. No problems. Now, the custom low battery images I normally do.....well, haven't found that one yet. It's not like before.
Just the statusbar stuff, no problem.

Awesome! Ok, so first, make a backup of your device from recovery, let me know when you've done that Then go to the app thread and post there when you're done for me

Saw it, thank you so much for testing!

I just tested it for the nexus s 4G, it comes up and I can only select mod button, then it's a black screen after it says retrieving list of mods

Battery Percentage

Anyone know if we're able to show battery percentage? (NOT looking for an additional battery icon, want one that displays directly over the battery icon in the notification bar)

or, failing that... a way to remove the factory battery icon?

Unless your device is S-OFF, it is impossible to do either

What u r talking about is done after rooting. If you have a s-off IS then u can definitely do it. Else get a xtc clip if you have a s-on.

Hey I'm new here and just bought my Incredible S. Can someone please explain what S-on or S-off means?

I have written a fairly extensive explanation, check the dev forum in the stickied rooting thread

OR.. we could just tell him, it's the security flag in the radio that has so far stopped us from soft-rooting the IS... So, the XTC Clip turns the S switch OFF, so that it CAN be rooted...

And... That's why I said to go read what I posted in the dev forum, because what you have just posted is wrong. I am trying to stop misinformation being spread, I suggest you read it as well.
Getting S-OFF is NOT the same as getting root, root access has already been achived a long time ago.

You can use this one too, it makes little battery icon to taskbar and shows percentage
https://market.android.com/details?...ndroid.systeminfowidget&feature=search_result

I am also interessted in this, a way to remove stock battery indicator in taskbar, and have one with percentage instead NOT a dual indicator as so many applications give. I'm searching and searching but come up empty all the time.

you could just get widgetsoid which is a button that takes you to battery stats along with the current %age of battery.
it is a widget though, personally i dont like having having % in notifications as it takes up too much space so this works well for me.

This is achieved through a theme. You will have to find someone who will make a theme that changes nothing but the battery icon if you want to stay stock. Or checkout themes/ROMs that are already done if you don't mind a new look. Third option is to learn how to theme and do it yourself. Changing the battery icon is not difficult.

Number indicate percentage is too small. Bar is easier to see. At glance we can see our battery is half
(50%) about

Not sure if am understanding this right..
You are looking for an app to display the battery percentage in the notification bar?
there are a couple of apps which do this & without root as well.
one of them is BATTERY GAUGE - displays in a rectangular black box kinda shape.
The other is an app available for download here, its called CIRCULAR BATTERY INDICATOR - displays in circular shape with changing colors for different levels.

am quite fond of both of them actually

Green Circle battery mod for Incredible S

*****STRICTLY VIRTUOUS UNITY 2.35 BATTERY MODS****** Use at your own risk if you are using a different rom: Make backup first before flashing!!!!!!
I thought I would share this because I had a hard time finding a batt mod that wouldnt take out my backlights! I tested it for 2 days and it seems to be working great. Someone was able to configure the files somehow and made it work on the Incredible S!! So enjoy.
There is also a Blue circle battery mod and the stock battery mod(with percent) here ----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=17101593&postcount=2007
Green Circle Battery Mod (BOTTOM)

Does this mess up the Quick Setting drop down menu? A few battery mods I've tried in the past caused the text to display incorrectly.

It hasnt messed up mine! I also have the Virtuous Unity 2.35 rom. If you try this out on your current rom make a backup before flashing. It cant hurt to try.
Please report back so I can make proper adjustments.

anyone tried this on android rev hd?

No but maybe I will post this with the title Virtuous Unity 2.35 because I think that it might effect the. apk files that are in other Rom's

Just gave it a try, all I can say is I'm happy I made a backup first. If you apply this on Android Revolution 1.1.7, the top status bar will completely disappear and themes will no longer work.

Not to be rude or any thing, but is'nt it just to go to UOT Kitcen and configure a battery that you like and upload the required files?

Batterry Icons

So, I just installed the 5ubZ3r0 0N3 theme over Elegancia 17.1.0 and it got rid of my battery icon in the status bar. I can go to the power options and select 'Show battery level' and it will show the percent of battery I have left, but alas no icon.
Does anyone know where I can find some flashable battery icons? I've searched the forums high and low and haven't been able to find any for our device.

Go to this thread here. Not flashables but mods that can be changed using xposed framework. Read up on it for more info http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2296698

Use the myhub app I think it has some doesn't it

From what I understand, the myhub app doesn't work anymore. All that's available for me to view is news, no downloads or anything.
@FrozenRiff, thank you. I'll check it out now.
Edit: I downloaded the battery icon I liked, installed it, enabled it in Xposed installer and no dice. I've tried to install things through Xposed previously to no avail... Does Xposed installer require s-off? If so, maybe that's why. I'm still s-on.

Do any xposed modules work? Just curious

None at all tbh. Which is weird because I have the Xposed installer framework downloaded.

Try another rom, maybe? I'm on 420 and xposed works on it
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk

Xposed was included in the aroma installer, so it would be pretty strange if it was just the Rom... Maybe I'm just missing something?
