Okay, so I went and did a search and checked out all the battery indicators that are usable for my Fuze. Most of them work on the today screen which I thought was nice, but I had TF3D enabled and don't play on taking it off.
I also rather not have the lil bar above the top curtain [I guess that's what you call it].
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew of a battery indicator that can work well with TF3D. Or maybe creating a tab for it? Oh yeah, hopefully one that's not a battery killer either.
...just wondering.
ariel battery is really good(small footprint), you can customize all the colors and it shows percentage also. hope that helped
You can try WkTask ... there is additional battery indicator (very thin but well visible) on top of the screen. It works perfect on my TP, I mean even if internal indication shows 50% (which is definatelly not true) WkTask battery indicatior show real battery state.
Hope this helps.

I rather not use the lil bar at the top, and that particular one is a battery drainer. Thanks though.

Appreciate it, but when I researched that, it shows that's a whole customized thing for 6.1? I just want a battery indicator, that's it.

well if simple is what you want it looks like you might just wana stick with the one your phone came with.
I don't think we are talking about the same thing. Here is the link it really doesn't use much system resources at all.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364278
something clean simple and all white ( i even think theres custom colors, without the batt drain ) is :
pk's newwarning batt.
i rocked it with my tilt..and i used it once or twice with my FUZE..im now using some custom stuff but for simplicity and gettin the job done, i suggest that one.
if u need the files lemme know..i got em on a jump drive somewhere.
Late,

Oh sorry, I had got that confused with another one.
But still, when I used that one on my tilt, it was a battery drainer as well.
Picky picky picky. I use batti and just tried ariel both are awesome. These are the best battery apps hands down.
Edit: In my oppinion at least.
I couldn't find anything on this and was wondering if its possible. I know it will shorten battery life a lot but I would still like it if the display could always be on.
I think the screen will burn in, same as on the note 3

use this
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nbondarchuk.android.keepscn
Sideloading the app above might work but I would not expected to say on more than a few hours due to battery life. It is not designed to stay on all the time. Change the screen time out to five minutes and set the wake up Motion and that will help.

It's a amoled screen, so black pixels are actually off, right ?
If i use a custom and ultra minimalist clock (2 pixels white on black font, one for hour, one for min) it will use a significant amount of battery if i keep it on ?
I know most of the drain comes from the screen but I wonder if the intensity is at 1 and you have a black background white text how long the gear would last.
At 4 my gear I charge every two days and even then there is a lot of life in the battery.

while black pixels are indeed off, i believe just waking up the gear itself will consume more battery, just because it stays 'ready' the whole time.
I thought it would be nice if the watch face was visible all the time but didn't think about burn in. It's probably for the best to leave it as is. Thanks for all the replies.
I need some sort of on screen notification or multicolored led and the ambient display is not working correctly ( I think I may have covered the sensor with my glass screen protector) so good old trusty NoLED works great just want to let you guys know...
Here's a link for anyone that is interested https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.led.notify

Thanks. Good to know. I remember using it on something a long time ago. Maybe with a Fascinate or some such.
The Nexus 6 has a notification LED, just need someone to develop a mod to make it light up.

Does the nexus 6 not have a standard notification LED?
There's an LED behind the top speaker grille according to people on reddit. Can't confirm yet, my Nexus 6 arrives on Friday (before 8p per FedEx)
Yes there are reports of a led behind the speaker but until someone hacks it NoLED is perfect for me... Just have to keep track of battery to make sure its not draining it too much

the LED behind the speaker works fine with the full version of Lightflow. there is a thread in general with the instructions for setup. No blinking yet.
LightFlow
If you are rooted and have install light flow it works flawlessly. Its actually really bright even though its behind a grill.

Neled has been giving me issues for some reason. I've been using it for years on multiple devices with the exact same configuration. However, on this device it completely shuts off as soon as the battery gets to 100%.

Shuts off and doesn't work? Do you have it set to auto start?

Hmm.. Mine shows a battery charge notification dancing around with the other NoLed icons on the screen. Starts at 100% & then starts down.... 97, 95, then starts back back up to 100% and keeps Cylcling this way. Doesn't shut off by itself.

So yours counts down till fully charged? Mine will show the charging % but goes up until it hits 100. I have it set to stop showing charging percent once it hits 100%. However, the whole thing turns off when it hits 100 instead. Its really odd.

I have it set to turn on at 10pm and off at 830am. It does work and comes on at 10 like it should but like I previously mentioned, for some reason once the charging rate hits 100% it just shuts down and I have a black screen.

Did you recently root your phone? Mine has been a little off since I rooted. At times it will be active to where if I touch the screen it will bring up the capacitive button but the notification icon won't show it'll just be a black screen

I rooted and unlocked immediately when I got the phone before I installed anything.
Well I guess you could just set it to not shut off at 100 percent.. Your phone will still be on the charger so its not going to drain your battery

I can try that and see if that works. Only thing is, in that setting, it's only supposed to stop showing the charge %, not all indications including time.

After decryption the behavior seems to have changed slightly. Found that a battery Monitor app that turns on screen at 100% charge was causing NoLed to stop. Another app that supposedly helps battery life was turning off accessibility for NoLed, Pie, & a couple of others. Something I will need to sort out in the coming weeks.
What is the bigger battery drain, Light Flow or Ambient Display? With Light Flow the light stays on CONSTANTLY if you only have one notification. It doesn't blink it just stays on. With Ambient Display it pulses on and off. If Light Flow actually gave us the ability to set a flash rate of the lights it would be awesome.
What do you think, which is a greater drain on the battery, a flashing screen or a solid light?
Yes the nexus 6 does have a led under the speaker grill. You just need to be rooted and light flow pro I get all my notification that way

Unfortunately, you misread his question.
Hello, I have this case and I wonder if it is possible to make the display always on. In that way I can see faster any notifications...
VERY GOOD idea !!!
I own the led flip cover and it's very great and wonderfull but much more great if AOD available ... but what battery drain effect if it's possible or hack made it ?

I don't believe that a few leds will have a huge impact in the battery drainage. My personal opinion is that I am ok with an extra battery drain, in order to achieve the result I want. I believe that it would be very useful to have AOD the time and if you have any notification the LEDs to make a loop showing time and notifications ( I don't know if I expressed my thought correctly in order to understand it)

This. I agree completely. This should be an option inside the icon editor software.
Have you found anything?
I agree!
I agree, they must do something and show at lees a notification light.
I notice that the led view not working on wireless charger.

Maybe your battery is low? It starts blinking when it reaches 15%

It there a way to disable the notification led for low battery?(no root)
I Found A Fix For It!
Bro, The problem is that you might have set auto turn battery saver at a certain percentage.
So once the battery reaches below that percentage , it will keep on blinking the led notification light .
I had this problem too...
