Battery level indicator

Hello folks,
This is my first post, so please excuse my ineptitude/ignorance. I've been searching all day for a Cab that will show my battery level as a %age in the top bar of my new XDA Stellar. I've seen loads of screen shots on here of various customized today pages, many of which seem to have this snazzy little feature. They've even inspired me to download the HTC home plug-in, task manager and HTC home customizer and I'm now loving the new Non-O2 look of my Stellar. I'm yet to find that battery status indicator thoguh. Would someone please take pity on me and post a link before my head explodes. Thanks in advance.

- VistaHide BatteryGauge - Simple Battery meter, nice colors.
- SBSH iLauncher - Great Launcher, multiple tabs, battery meter on top.
- SPB PocketPlus - Another great Launcher, multiple tabs, battery meter on top.
- Batti - ((Thanks to _Alex_ )FYI, Batti eats batteries.)
- Ariel Battery Meter - Replace your Start Menu picture with a battery meter.
- QuickMenu - Really MUST have. Nice cascading Start Menu, and a nice battery meter.
Enough choice, isn't it?
All above apps are, (or can show) a battery meter on top of the screen.

FYI, Batti eats batteries. You should also check out QuickMenu too.

Thanks for that.
I never used Batti, just provided the link to this well known battery meter.
Added QuickMenu link

I personally like Areilbattery 2.

Wow, that was a quick response. Thank you so much. I'll have a play around with those suggestions.
EDIT: ArielBattery was pretty much exactly what I was after. Thanks again guys.

Battery Meter in taskbar?
My friend has an older WM5 device and he has a battery meter in the lower taskbar. Is there a plug in so I can achieve this and not have the HTCHome Plug in on my Tilt just for the battery meter?

Search for "Batti"

I personally like the Taskbar Battery Indicator on the Spb Pocket Plus 3.2 (look it up). The newer version doesn't seem to have it.
I've tried other sucha s the SBSH Launcher which integrates nicely with WM6 and SBSH Pocket Breeze...

Or you can use the Magic Button which provides a thin battery meter above the upper taskbar (besides other functions).

Yes it does.(I have Pocket Plus 4.0.2). jost press the stylus on any tab => hit options => Task battery indicator options => chouse the size of the indicator.

Vista Hide is Awesome
Just a personal thought. I have usd Vistahide for ome time, and it is very nice, small footprint and shows up nicely, And uses almost no resources on the phone.

1% battery increments in top bar?

Just switching over from the Hermes world.
One recent addition to Hermes ROMs was the battery icon the top bar with granularity to 1%.
ie. take a look at the 1st pic in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2522625&postcount=1
some chefs made theirs with different colors, others were 100% white.
I know the Kaiser does 1% in the battery settings page, just wondering why I didn't see this top bar change getting cooked in to any Kaiser ROMs? Did it come and go already, or just not appeal to Kaiser folks?
Yes, I am well aware of other battery meters... like I said just curious about the cooked in battery icon.. small little perk that I miss from Hermes.

The 1 percent incraments is standard in the Kaiser (meaning nobody had to make an dlls to help make it). There are ways of showing the percent on the right, just have to find the right battery program to do it

If you're handy with reshacker, you can look here for a start.

I created a new battery meter for my Kaiser. It's not too hard. I would post it, but it's uses borrowed images and since I don't use phcanOverbmp, it may not be too helpful for many people.

Small battery icon with percentage

Hi,
Anyone know where can I get that small battery indicator that has percentage battery life on top of it?
The old L26 v3 custom rom has that
I changed recently to L26 latest release (v10?), and I dont find that icon anymore ... and I dont know where to get it (basically, I dont know the name of the application).
Please let me know if have that or know where to download.
Thanks.

Battety status indicator along the top of the taskbar?

My Excalibur has the battery indicator along the top 3 pixels of the screen. Any way to get that on my Kaiser?

I believe the program you are asking about is called Batti 2.1 by David Andrs
http://code.google.com/p/batti/
Looks like there is a 2.4 out, going to go grab it myself!!!

perfect. ya that was it. Thanks.

hehe, I actually just noticed that SPB Pocket Plus (that I was already using) actually has an even better bar style taskbar battery indicator, so I just uninstalled batti.

Hide Battery Icon???
Hi guys,
I am using Batty, which is really excellent imho. So the Battery icon in the task bar became useless. Is there any way to hide this icon?

I wouldn't say that everything that goes on TD1 works on TD2. At least in video features. Tried a theme from TD1 which was supposed to work on TD2, it screwed up the display. Some work, some don't ...
