Anyone know how to get the battery percentage to show in the battery icon in Froyo? Thanks.
moved to Q&A
cant happen until froyo source is out.
You can, but not perfect
I too wanted the percentage in the battery. In the development thread you'll see that the phoenrom has it included in the rom. I ended up making my own custom rom with the kitchen made by dsixda just to get that damn percentage in the battery icon! Its also not a very accurate measurer of percentage as it only works in percentages of 10(40,50,60etc). I still like it though.
Now that the source is out,
I tried to apply the bat. %, but failed.
I edited the xml to link to the pngs from 0 to 100.
I edited the PNGs.
Compilation warns me about bad pngs and when I reboot, the framework is totally messed up or even worst, as I unlock my phone, it just reboots...
Any help on how to do this?
I use Battery Widget (free). Takes up one icon space on your home screen (shows battery percentage in 1% increments), also allows quick toggling of Wifi/GPS/Bluetooth, and access to Screen settings.

I updated to Cyanogen 6 RC2 and noticed my task bar reverted back to white. I tried to use my morph to use the desire taskbar but it didnt work (due to metamorph not working for some reason). I then ran a diff black bar which did work with the updated version of metamorph and noticed the date in the taskbar was no longer present.
Is this due to the morph or is this due to cyanogen 6? can someone tell me? Also, is there a way to get it back?
Also i believe i was able to change my lockscreen caption with cyanogen 6 RC1 but i cant seem to find the option in RC2. did some searching and i see some .apk that need to be custom built in order to change it....is this true? or am i some how overlooking the option with cyanogen 6 RC2?
anyone have any light to shed?
Maybe I am missing something
You have changed settings->CyanogenMod settings->User interface settings so that nothing is showing up black right? I had the problem when I first morphed to the black desire bar. And you have to reboot the phone for the changes to take effect. I hope it's that simple.

thanks for the tip, but i did check that and thats not the problem...ive even gone as far as making everysingle color something non black so that way i can see which color represented what portion of the task bar. I think what happened was i flash a diff bar than the desire bar first but used the updated version of metamorph which doesnt work...i think that bar f'd with it to be honest.
I have the Cyanogen custom rom loaded on my rooted Nexus One and I have been trying all day to morph/flash ways to change my notification bar, but no good.
Would appreciate from you fantastic people if you could lend me a hand or advice?
Thank you! (If this is wrong format in this forum I apologize greatly it is my first time posting here, but I've been following XDA for some time now)
there are many themes over in the themes forum that have meta morph files you can apply to change your status bar to black. which do you want? do you want the desire black bar? or a pure black bar? i can post my theme which i use, it has a mixture of pure black bar, circle battery icon, my preferred wifi icon, and the rest are desire icons, all mixed together to give me my favorite theme. currently using it on cyan 6 nightly from sunday.
EDIT: i added the file. i left the name exactly the same, but a few edits have been made so i hope the originator of that theme doesnt mind. you can search out that thread by the file name i uploaded.
the thing is when i attempt to morph a theme every thing changes EXCEPT the status bar. While it skins the framework.apk (mis-spelled) It takes extremely long and I eventually reboot my phone because it does not load. How long does it take for you to morph a complete skin? I was trying to morph the Carbon Notification bar and it takes very long.
Thanks btw for your reply really appreciated
yeah i am stuck at the same problem too.. it is taking too long for such a small file... even flashing roms are faster...
na dude i got a different version MM nd it morphed quickly but not right status bar always white
huh ? i didnt get u... cant u rephrase ur sentence pls .. are u saying u downloaded an older version of metamorph and it morphed quickly but that version of metamorph did'nt change ur status bar to the desired color ?
It works for me every time, very quickly. Do you have usb bugging enabled? You need that.
Like I said, that's the exact file I use every time, not sure what is wrong...
Are you sure a reboot doesn't make the white turn to black bar?
haha.. it works for me now.. i didnt enable USB debugging the last time .. awesome.. loving the new carbon fibre status bar.. wicked stuff !!
Ha nice, its always the little things

Yes, but the text would also be black. It has to be a custom ROM to modify the text too.
yes there's a stock FRF91 ROM thread over in the other forum which is theme ready so you could use any morph you want.

Good info.. I have Enom's all lined up to go on mine when I get my new MicroSDHC... Still using the stock 4G card, need more space.
Help please
So I've downloaded the Glass Status Bar morph, and everything works except my status bar is still white. I'm trying to run it on CM 6, froyo, N1. Any help would be appreciated as to why this might not be working.
Do I need to adjust any settings in CM?

Go into the CM settings under the notification bar settings and untick the custom bar and untick custom color. Reboot and then it should work.
Thanks for the tip kp and it seemed to work at first but when I tried to change back to my preferred wallpaper (when it rebooted after applying the morph it reverted to the standard Cyanogen live wallpaper) the status bar become black.
Any other suggestions?

Thanks for the tip but it didn't work. I unticked everything you said, reapplied the morph and it re-started and seemed to work although the wall paper had changed by to the standard CM live wallpaper. When I switched back to my normal wallpaper the notification bar was black. Same thing when I tried other wallpapers.
Any other ideas?

Are you running a CM6 nightly?
Im running the CM6 stable and everything works fine on my end. For the nightly, I heard that you need to stick a static wallpaper you do not want up and then go to the live wall paper to place "on top of" the wallpaper. There may be more to that but that was the jist of the conversation I read in passing.

No, I'm running the stable mod, not any of the nightly's. Tried what that thread suggested, still no luck. I'll keep trying on my end.
Just to go through the steps I did, I downloaded the file from XDA. Placed it on my N1. Used Metamorph to unzip it and install it rebooted and no-go.

Ok so i was searching around on the Desire thread and stumbled across this thread..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775970.
As far as i can tell it does not work on stock based ROMS.. but it is suppose to work on most versions of CyanogenMod.. I will most likely be trying it out soon and will report back afterwards..
I've used it a few times with sense roms but it doesn't allow you to change much, just the notification bar really.
It works on sense. I changed the battery icon and the boot screen animation.
Okay I stand corrected. This does work for stock ROMS.. Though its not quite an entire theme.. It is a nice and easy way to change notification icons, battery icon and status bar..
Hi, i just change my battery icons on my sgs but theres a little problem... There's a pictures for every percentage but it only show me every 10% (100%-90%-80%...). Is there a little files that i can change to be able to see every percentage or i need to install a theme or something else then i will be able to update with the icons I want?
Thanks
I use https://market.android.com/details?...51bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5sYXJyeXZncy5iYXR0ZXJ5Il0. for that purpose. It's one more incon in the notification bar but it gets the job done without the need of rooting the phone.
mods
is there any battery mod for ics?????
