Just wondering if there is a ROM out there with the battery shown in percent on the top bar insted of the iconic representation i have at the moment.
They already have this feature on the Hermes forum.
Also, a little color goes a long way.....
There are many separate programs that can do this. Look into them (try batti).
You can try this...measurement is by every 10% change though...
Since you posted this under development, wich it really doesnt fit under in my belief as just pimping looks of youre rom are a little away from the true purpose of this section. Anyway, since you asked. Rip open youre phcanOverbmp.dll and just make the changes there, (should start around 1001/icon group) then you need to regedit some. Something simulare as this :
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
"BaseDll"="phcanOverbmp.dll"
"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword: [B]youre value[/B]
"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:[B]youre levels[/B]
Cook it in..
If you going to just cab it make sure to digitaly sign it, you can ofc. take advantage of phcanrc.dll.0409.mui But thats another story. Search for Marshall07 you will find some intrest of study how he work on changing waiting cursors.
I attached a .dll whit this effect:

You asked howto, now you know Go make that battery and release it under the propper section

I use QuickMenu to accomplish this:

It's not its main purpose, but it does it well.....besides being a great start menu replacement.

This is what you're after - also the best ROM I've used so far

If you're on WM 6.1 my recommendation would be Ariel battery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364278
It's pretty neat as you can move the icon around instead of having it in just one fixed position. It becomes easier when you move on to WM 6.5. All you have to do is switch to the right ROM. I'm currently using ahmedfikry's light rom 6.5 23569 V3 and the battery % looks pretty nice there.

if i wanted diamond rom, i would buy a diamond.. i mean i appreciate the work but whats up with some kaiser roms for the kaiser
if you look, you will find some new non-diamond roms
L26's Diamond v9 is not a diamond rom. It's a kaiser rom that just looks like a diamond rom. You should get that. It's from an official kaiser rom rather than from a diamond rom.
Kraize
Some people want a diamond but can't get it. This is just a great way to get that diamond look on the Kaiser. The rom choice is yours.
I also suggest you go for the lite roms if you don't want the diamond appeal and such.
I haven't flashed any of the diamond roms, because of their lack of stability. I'm sticking w/ dutty's APR29 WM6.1 Hybrid. I like it A bunch of people have flashed back to this rom
Try garmins or romeo, duttys/leo`s or hyperdragon, or any other of the non diamond port -> non diamond series. There are many out there

Every rom is going to have bugs. There are fixes you just have to search. I'm pretty sure you can go to google and type in "gps problems kaiser" ..You know what I'll do it for you!!
Look at the top results... start there.
I would go in one of those threads and search within the thread for your problem, if you can't find it. Ask the question in that thread. You'll have other people with GPS problem willing to assist. Geez... It doesn't take long for the love of god. I searched, screenshot, uploaded to photobucket and made this post in less than 5 minutes. (maybe because I type fast) but still you get the jist of it.

Hi,
I'm the developer of the MessagesWidget and all designers I had told me they would do a layout and disappeared.
If you could do a layout, I would be proud to include it in the next version.
What I need is a 4x2 layout and a 4x1 layout.
If you're interested I could send you my contact informations and we could talk through GTalk or ICQ.
Thanks.

I'm doing this to keep Android rocking with a better overall experience, so I'm just asking you guys to keep writing killer apps.
If you're interested, just post:
1) App's primary function
2) Images to be replaced (or screenshot w/ relevant image sizes)
3) Idea of the look you're going for, if any.

Hi, just found this thread,
My app is currently in the latter stages of development and I'm looking for some inspiration when it comes the front end.
1) aDyno (a beta ver is on the market for you to dnload & play with), its a car performance app, measures & logs speed/hp/gforces etc.
2) If you glance through the app screens, a lot are simple list views which I'm OK with, but the presentation may need reviewing. The main views that need 'some work' are:
. The main timer view (pic1), I need to overhaul the whole thing from scratch.
. The graphs view (pic2), something prettier.
. And the g-meter/g-pad views (pic3 & 4), again, my first efforts are pretty poor (though the code used in pic4 is far from complete).
3) What I'm looking for? Nothing too OTT but I'm open to suggestions.
Looking forward to hearing what kind of ideas you have, or if this is of interest to you.
You can also catch some dev info on this thread...

Well there have been hacks to get rid of the bottom softkey row but it gets rid of it in all apps which starts a no-no.
Another method would be to use homescreens that are full screen... kinda like the ones you have to launch (basically an app). You don't really get rid of the bars, just have a program covering them up.
Another method, which I used to use, is to skin the bars with the same image so it appears they're gone, with just the background and icons and softkey text. It actually works well. Of course you need WM6.5 that allows skinning.
Other methods include "desktop" replacements like WAD and such. They basically skin the bars to your liking and works with older windows mobile OS's

Thanks Player911 for the advice. BTW, i am using WM6.5, so what would you suggest as best.
Please keep in mind i am running the Gen.Y Manila "Revolution" R1.5 VGA Port CFC with the Panaramic background.
I'd like to know this also...
And it'd be amazing if anyone ported this to vga...

Hey guys i put together a tutorial
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=87958
I don't know how much you guys pay attention to what goes on in the other sections of this forum but since I still own a Fuze as well as the HD2 I wanted to make sure you guys knew what I was still up to.
I made an Android 3D model a bit ago and offered it to the public to use as they wanted if they just asked for the file. Well nobody asked to use him so I guess I can waste some time here and there and get out a set of tabs. I'm not saying it will happen fast, but today I started from scratch with the other models like the phone,MMS,headphones,Footprint,etc..... I have him placed with several of them so far but with all the tabs that are out there right now it will be awhile till I have each of them made.

Just eleven more to do,lol........
Edit: was made later this eveing
New eMail icon. The other one looked odd in that direction plus it didn't allow me to use him at full size to the envelope.
Ok so what would poeple rather see...............
Him in Blue as shown above
or
Green like in the new Web icon?
those look great ...green or blue both are cool looking
Not totally happy with it but you get the idea. I'll just have to redo the shadowing. It's all wrong for the arrow.
How do you guys feel about a TwitterDroid?
Docs tab but I will have to do some work on this one but it's there for the most part.
Contacts......
One more.....What do you think for a weather icon?
I think they are pretty neat, and a little cute. LOL love em. U have a Hero and a Touch Pro, glad I saw these, made my night. Looks like a lot of hard work, nice job.
I have an HD2 and a Fuze(Touch Pro) I do not have a Hero.
Settings ......
I cleaned up the settings icon. I kind of rushed it the last time and short cut doing some things. Even this last one is not fully up to my specs but it will do for now. I have plowed out most of the tabs I'm going to do. Out of 17 total I have 3 more left.
Updated twitter icon possibly???????
they all look great Wil
Most likely the new Music Icon
Pictures & Video
Well I thought I would throw some humor into missed calls. If anybody has any ideas for something better I'm all ears. I can't think of anything I want to render for it.
Hi guys, I am searching for a custom gingerbread battery percentage icon set. Maybe someone knows if it's available in 1% stages or knows how to create it.
Should look like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

and NOT like this

edit: I am using BAMF Battery Mod v5 for now, which looks a little like this.
kackburt, how did you get the Battery mod to install on your HD2? I always get an "installation failed" error. I'm completely new to Android. I'm using the typhoon cyanogen mod. Is that the problem? I know the battery mod wasn't made for the HD2 but I wanted to give it a shot since you got it to work.

It is pretty clear http://uot.dakra.lt/how_to/
to create is easy - assuming you have a rom that displays 100 different battery icons (i believe yours does; most of CM7 roms do not- they change the display every 5%). the images are in the frameworks-res.apk. lots of ways to get it on your phone - metamorph, flash via cwm. tricky part is making the icons; but if you have a source then just rename them.
cheers.
Wow. The great big world of Android. I'm still learning and loving it! Thanks to both of you!
