Froyo, battery percentage in bat icon

Is there any way to get the battery percentage as text inside the battery icon in the status bar with froyo?

the closest thing your looking for is battery indicator

Ok thanks.
So in other words, it is not yet possible to add this text to the battery icon in froyo yet?

not likely, unfortunately there is no real way to really edit the notification bar without rooting.

Yeah, sorry forgot to say that i am rooted

oh well in that case the possibilities are endless, im not rooted so im afraid my helping you ends here, lol

battery notify is the same, fully colored and free

I think that most people are waiting for the source being released to do tweaking on it.

I'm also looking for this!

Froyo just dropped on AOSP so it won't take long anymore

well got:
CyanogenMod-6.0.0 RC1
But no percentage in the battery indactor.
Any tips?
Edit:
Found it: Settings / Cyanogenmod settings/ userinterface/ battery and clock

Sorry to revive this, but was wondering if someone has something for this... I wanna keep the stock N1 ROM. Any suggestion?

[CLOSED 12/20/2010] [ROM] SK-ROM Beta v0.3

SK-ROM Beta 0.3
This beta is now closed, as I am about to launch Magnolia RC1, the first release candidate for this ROM. Thanks to all who have tried out the ROm for their support and input.
Steve
ROM Features:
Based on stock HTC Sense/Froyo OTA v3.26.605.
Uses latest stock HTC kernel to help alleviate battery drain.
"Matte" Sense UI. I completely redid all "shiny" elements of the Sense UI (including green highlights), status bar and HTC apps to make then smoother, more refined and professional looking (IMHO).
Added notification pulldown power widgets, custom skinned by me. Thanks to |||bored|||, dopeshiziot and JSCHiSurf for this.
Apps softkey (left softkey) is mapped to Maxim's AppFolders, a fully customizable app drawer that I have come to depend on, since I first saw it implemented in deficitism's Uncommon Sense. A BIG nod to deficitism for both the idea and the tools to figure out how to do this.
Right softkey mapped to browser (will consider other mappings if there is interest). Thanks to JsChiSurf for the tools to learn how this is done.
Added battery percentage mod and smooth sense icons. Thanks to jercik for these.
Added 6-Bar signal meter. Thanks to deficitism for the tools to learn how this is done.
3-in-1 power menu (reboot option) by snq-
Replaced HTC Car Panel with Google CarHome.
Transparent clock background (flip from HD, for now...) and settings/profile widget backgrounds. Props to HeyItsLou for the inspiration for these.
Made the lockscreen and rosie navbar transparent, and the statusbar pulldown semi-transparent. Thanks to shoey-n for the services.jar mod to allow this.
Slight graphical mods to dialer to make it easier to see and use (IMHO).
All framework and resources images were compressed and optimized to maximize RAM.
Statusbar clock, alarm, debugging and location icons are hidden by default. I have attached Zip files to post #3 to add these back, if desired. Thanks to pardonmyfreedom for the tutorial on how to do this.
Removed what seems to be agreed upon as bloat from the ROM (e.g., Vcast, Footprints, etc.). Other quasi-bloat apps (e.g., VZWBAC, Quickoffice) are in data/app/ and can be uninstalled.
Blue spinning android boot animation from Natemz over at androidcentral.com.
ROM is fully deodexed, zipaligned and rooted.

Known Bugs
For some reason the newest Gmail (2.3.2) won't intall over the version included in Beta 0.3 I posted earlier. Seems that this is not an uncommon problem with various ROMs. I have, as of 11:30 PM EST 12/12/10, uploaded the fixed ROM with the latest Gmail (same download link as before). So, if you are new to the ROM, no worries, the latest version is included. If you already have v0.3 installed, many apologies, but you will need to reflash if you want to have Gmail 2.3.2.
----------------
I have been a member of XDA for a long time, and I recently switched from WM to Android. I have been messing around with some ROMs for my own use over the past month or so, and figured it was time to release a ROM into the wild in hopes that the community can help me make it into something on a higher plane than I can do on my own.
The ROM is based on the stock HTC Sense/Froyo OTA v3.26.605.1 that I pulled from the always excellent virtuousrom.com. By painstakingly analyzing what the wonderful devs on this site have been up to via countless "diff" commands and analyzing smali files until my eyes hurt, I rebuilt/modded the ROMs framework and apps to make the ROM I have been looking for.
I want to state that, while I did my own coding/theming and implemented the features of this ROM slightly differently than the devs I learned them from, I owe ALL of this ROM to those devs' hard work an ingenuity. All I did was learn what they were doing and figure out how to make it work the way I wanted.
I also want to note again that I am very new to cooking (have been a themer mostly) and this ROM is BETA. While I have found it to be stable for my own personal use, I cannot say it will be for you. Therefore, download and flash at your own risk, for I take NO responsibility for what happens to your phone if you install this ROM.
Again, I want to state that I owe all of the devs listed above for their hard work and ingenuity, without which I would not know how to do any of this. If anyone believes I have not credited someone I should have, please shoot me a PM and I will correct my error. Similarly, if I have unintentionally violated acceptable etiquette in any way, please let me know via PM, and I will try to fix the problem.
Install by downloading the ROM to your SD card (or copy it there from PC) and rebooting into recovery, WIPING data and cache (I wipe dalvik cache, as well) and selecting the "install from sdcard" option. It takes a while on the first bootup, so please be patient.
**NB- there have been extensive changes to the framework in version 0.3, so I recommend a full wipe, even if you have 0.2 installed.**
Please enjoy, and I hope to receive your feedback, help and ideas for improvement. I believe this will be the last beta before RC1, unless there is something I am missing
Steve

Changelog
Beta v0.3
I plan this to be the last beta before releasing RC1 under a new, better name. So, please, any bug reports, comments are welcome. Thanks.
Added custom skinned status/notification bar power control widgets. Credits in 1st post.
replaced Ziggy's kernel with latest HTC stock kernel. Didn't feel performance bump was worth battery drain.
Fixed 6-bar signal being limited to only 4-bars. Thanks to |||bored||| for reminding me of this.
Many small framework and resources tweaks.
Beta v0.2
Fixed sync notification animation
Added 6-bar signal meter
Added data/app functionality to allow for uninstalling some apps that might be considered bloat.
Updated gapps.
Added Zip files to post #3 to allow customization of icons shown in status bar.

Reserved
OK. Sorry for the wait. The status bar icon show/hide files are now attached. I tested each briefly, so they should be fine, but nandroid before flashing, just in case.
Steve

nice to have you over on our side, any chance of getting that wallpaper?

@mothy
Here you go...

Wow! This looks great! Amazing features for a beta at V 0.1 haha. I'm definitely gonna switch from the latest skyraider to this. Thanks for the hard work on this man! Hope to see you around more, hopefully updating this thing of beauty with even more features!

I'm stoked to try this out!! I can't download it from my phone for some reason tho. Can you put a mirror up?

Are there any known bugs?

love the matte look.. will keep an eye on this. how does the call answer lock look like? is it matte also or transparent? any plans on implementing the 6 signal bar? and could you elaborate on the easier to use dialer?

The only "bug" I know is that the animated sync icon isn't working yet. I am sure some will come up, though, as I haven't used every app/feature of the phone.

Yep. I am just getting into the services.jar files to see how this is done. Hopefully in a few days I will have it. I would like to learn how it works rather than just copy it over from someone else.

As to the call answer, it's transparent. I was toying with replacing the android guy, but couldn't settle on a picture.
As to the dialer mod, it's just a graphical mod to make the keys and dialing text easier to read. Sorry, should have been clearer...

So far this rom is running great! One minor gripe, about 50% of the time when I unlock the phone, I get the "Sorry, android.mms.apk has force closed" or whatever. I'm sure it can easily be fixed with a patch though, because I've seen a bunch of other MMS fixes on lots of other peoples roms. Other than that this rom is fluid, fast, and very easy on the eyes. Love it.

Is Visual Voice Mail removed from this? I know some people consider it bloat, I consider it essential.

I have been running it for two hours now - working great!

It does have VVM. I use it, too.
As the the mms force close, I have also seen this on other ROM threads, hasn't happened to me on this one, though. Will work on a fix tomorrow. Thanks for pointing that out.

As to the MMS FC issue, may I ask a few questions: Have you tried fixing permissions in recovery? Did you use Titanium backup to restore your text messages? Have you ever had apps installed on your SD card?
Thanks!
Steve

I've never used titanium back up, I've never had apps installed on my sd card, but no i have not tried fixing permissions.
It only did it for the first day or so. It's perfectly fine now. I'll try fixing permissions though.

[Battery] CM7 Battery for Cog5 Beta2 (06/20/2011)

This is a simple battery mod to the stock framework of Cognition5 Beta2. It was created using the UOT Kitchen and the colors were matched (not perfect, but close) to the pulldown icons. If anyone knows the exact hex code to match, I'd appriciate it. The color remains green until the battery percentage gets to 14 or bellow, then they turn red. Like I said, simple. I personally don't like my battery icon constantly changing colors.
These are compatible with the new cwm intergrated into Cog5 beta2. I would suggest putting both files on your phone, that way if something goes wrong, or you don't like it, you can revert easily. I take no responsibility... you know the drill.
Thank designgears for all his hard work, and the UOT Kitchen guys for all their hard work on an amazing program. I just did alot of pointing and clicking, lol. I'm not sure who made the original icon, but thank him too, and the CM7 team for adding the mod to their rom in the first place.

I can't believe I was the only one using your mod. Anyways, it just looks awesome. Thanks a whole bunch, my aging eyes might stay in their sockets!

I can see! I can see! Thanks much for this. It's nice to actually be able to see the percentage.

Glad you'll like it. Stock battery was just too hard to read. I'm currently in denial about my eyesight, so this was my way of dealing with it, lol.

these are the main colors in the center two rows in each of the horizontal bars in one of your images. the first of each is the most common color.
bar 1
#acea1d
#aeef0d
#adf00d
bar 2
#aee822
#aeee11
#b0ee11
*Edit*
I'm not trying to be a jerk but it looks like the font is 1px larger than the date or time font...just letting you know. the baseline is the same though, so that's good.

for both the revised Batt (my old eyes just couldn't deal with the micro type)and the revert to original is icing on the cake that makes me feel very comfortable using your tweak. It works superbly

[Q] Battery Mod for Virtuous Unity 2.39

Hi!
How do I get a custom battery with percentage for the latest Virtuous Unity V3.9?
I tried UOT kitchen but it only crashed the ROM.. (probably did it wrong...) :/
Is it possible to get a custom battery file with a small tutorial?
Many Thanks

Not completely sure what your after, but I am currently on VU and using Battery Booster from the market place which adds a small battery percentage icon to my task bar. You can get a patch from here somewhere where the percentage is included in the stock battery symbol itself, therefore taking up less task bar spacem but you would have to search for this.
Hope that helps

Thanks
Thanks for the app reference!
It isnt bad although It less convenient than a patch which is what I was originally looking for. I'll try to look around till I find it but in the mean time the app will do.

REQUEST: Battery Percentage?

Hey guys, I really wanna have battery percentage on my GE Rom... can anyone make it so we can see battery percentage inside the battery logo

I use a free application from the Playstore called Battery Status, however that uses the left side of the statusbar rather than the right one.

update to Android 4.2.2 and you get battery percentage by Stock, go to settings then Power then check the battery percentage box

Not inside the battery icon though. Some people like to save statusbar real estate for other icons. And you can't remove the graphical battery if you enable the text percentage, so then you're left with two things telling you how much battery you have.

No idea, but with my limited knowledge, I would like to say no? Would have to ask in that thread to find out

I am also looking for .zip flashable battery percentage icons for stock ROMs. I am not looking for a third party app, rather i want something that i can flash through recovery.
I know android now lets you have a percentage beside the battery indicator, but i want to have them both in one icon.
Is it because of the limitations on Sense 5 that such a package hasn't been made yet?

Just to let everyone know, i used this mod (for base 3.62) and it works fine for battery percentage (inside battery indicator).
