Exact battery display? - Motorola Droid 3

Is it possible now to have an app display the exact battery percentage instead of increments of 10? I know circle battery widget can, but many others cannot.
Sent from my DROID3

I believe this post belongs in general Droid 3.
To answer the question. I use Circle Battery Widget which shows 1% increments. The hardware is capable if reporting 1% increments so there should be other software capable of showing this.

is there a way to get circle battery (or is there another option)
to replace the existing battery? I know i used to have a metamorph for the circle battery... but that's not exactly an option currently...

What I meant is that with root we may be able to change how the system gives out the battery level when an app requests it, so more than just circle battery widget can get an accurate reading.

With the Droid X, 2nd init had to be implemented before we could get one percent battery increments. I think the same will probably have to be done with the Droid 3.

I dunno, I was using the app 'SystemPanel' (or maybe it's just 'System') to do some monitoring, and it seems to show the battery in one percent increments with no problems.

Battery percentage MOD

Hello everybody!
Has anyone done a battery percentage mod to be used with Nexus S yet? I have done a research but couldn't find anything..
I prefer to see the percentage of battery left right there in the middle of the icon, instead of placing a widget on my desktop.
That would be a nice little touch to the display, Im sure it will come out soon , I havnt seen it yet...
My theme has battery percentage built in. I will try to do the same MOD for a non themed ROM.

See my app, there's a test version for the Nexus S CM7
Is the battery indicator app no good? It shows numerical percentage at the top of screen

Yeah, the battery mod is available, had it just a few days after the N-S came out even. I've got one running on my aosp build (n1), as well as on cm7 alpha. No problems. Now, the custom low battery images I normally do.....well, haven't found that one yet. It's not like before.
Just the statusbar stuff, no problem.

Awesome! Ok, so first, make a backup of your device from recovery, let me know when you've done that Then go to the app thread and post there when you're done for me

Saw it, thank you so much for testing!
I just tested it for the nexus s 4G, it comes up and I can only select mod button, then it's a black screen after it says retrieving list of mods

Battery Percentage

Anyone know if we're able to show battery percentage? (NOT looking for an additional battery icon, want one that displays directly over the battery icon in the notification bar)
or, failing that... a way to remove the factory battery icon?
Unless your device is S-OFF, it is impossible to do either

What u r talking about is done after rooting. If you have a s-off IS then u can definitely do it. Else get a xtc clip if you have a s-on.

Hey I'm new here and just bought my Incredible S. Can someone please explain what S-on or S-off means?

I have written a fairly extensive explanation, check the dev forum in the stickied rooting thread

OR.. we could just tell him, it's the security flag in the radio that has so far stopped us from soft-rooting the IS... So, the XTC Clip turns the S switch OFF, so that it CAN be rooted...
And... That's why I said to go read what I posted in the dev forum, because what you have just posted is wrong. I am trying to stop misinformation being spread, I suggest you read it as well.
Getting S-OFF is NOT the same as getting root, root access has already been achived a long time ago.

You can use this one too, it makes little battery icon to taskbar and shows percentage
https://market.android.com/details?...ndroid.systeminfowidget&feature=search_result
I am also interessted in this, a way to remove stock battery indicator in taskbar, and have one with percentage instead NOT a dual indicator as so many applications give. I'm searching and searching but come up empty all the time.
you could just get widgetsoid which is a button that takes you to battery stats along with the current %age of battery.
it is a widget though, personally i dont like having having % in notifications as it takes up too much space so this works well for me.
This is achieved through a theme. You will have to find someone who will make a theme that changes nothing but the battery icon if you want to stay stock. Or checkout themes/ROMs that are already done if you don't mind a new look. Third option is to learn how to theme and do it yourself. Changing the battery icon is not difficult.

Number indicate percentage is too small. Bar is easier to see. At glance we can see our battery is half
(50%) about

Not sure if am understanding this right..
You are looking for an app to display the battery percentage in the notification bar?
there are a couple of apps which do this & without root as well.
one of them is BATTERY GAUGE - displays in a rectangular black box kinda shape.
The other is an app available for download here, its called CIRCULAR BATTERY INDICATOR - displays in circular shape with changing colors for different levels.

What is increments?

I downloaded this app called Rom toolbox and it have a icon changer section where I can change the battery icon. But it says something about increments.. so what is it? And how do I found out how many increments my stock battery is? I'm running ARHD 2.1.3
THANKS for helping

The increments are when the colour and/or icon changes according to battery percentage. Usually they change around each 10-15% increment, but you can change that.

I don't know how I got it but it's a blue circle with the percentage in the center.
Anyone know how to turn it off

1. Wrong section
2. Provide a screenshot, that will make it easier to identify
3. What apps have you installed before it happened?

Funny i was just about to post a request here (directed by swm in the viper thread) to request a circle battery mod
any chance of getting this battery mod added? http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1624316
or is it really just as easy as copying the icon files?
i know mikeyxda uses this mod on the EVO 4GLTE and I think it's similar to the one on his meanrom 3D.
