[Q] 1% battery mod - Motorola Droid 3

First sorry for my bad English.
Hello! A few days I'm struggling with a mod. I want to implement the battery indicator to 1% on my stock rom (Retail LA). I have modified framework and sistemui apk's with UOT Kitchen. The icons changed (now I have the round indicator) but the battery indication is still in steps of 10.
I tried editing the framework putting the battery's xml inside the drawable folder into drawable-hdpi, but neither worked.
I appreciate any help!

Try the attachment below, it's a 1% mod guide. buckmarble sent me this once when he was helping me. I'm not sure if it's his or someone else's, but it surely isn't mine. I just don't want to take credit for something that isn't mine.

Damn. Sorry. I throw it in my DropBox.
EDIT: Here it is.

thank you very much! worked perfect! I needed to modify the services.jar, but following the tuto I did it without problems!

I'm glad it worked. Credit goes to either buckmarble or someone else he got it from first because all of that is way beyond me if I didn't have that step-by-step guide.

Does it work with CyanogenMod 7? Hope you don't mind me asking in advanced. And if it does, is there anyway to modify the displayed colour? Thank you.

AFAIK, it should work. I don't believe it's Blur specific. As for colors, you'd probably have to do some .xml editing. That's where I have no idea and it zooms over my head. I'd say follow the guide for 1% at least, and if you can't find files where they're listed as being, then it's not going to work exactly and you may have to do some searching, but since it's framework_res.apk and services.jar editing, I feel it should be the same.

Thank you. I'll install this mod and see how it goes. As for modding, I've got no clue myself, despite 2 years using Milestone, but I think it's time to dabble a bit.

You and redsox are very welcome. I in fact did write this up myself, just for redsox. I intended to publish it but I did not get a chance to make it more revised and legible yet. But im glad it worked for you! Share away!

I already used search and saw that thread, but it doesn't answer my question.
*.9.png files require a one pixel black border around them to work correctly.

Decompile the original .9 PNG and paste the modified one over it, then recompile.

Here, this should work. I don't use CM7, so I wasn't able to test it. If you have any problems, just let me know.

You could always use the uot for ALMOST any framework-res.apk

If there are any request then just wait for your turn.

I'm well aware of the uot kitchen, but I prefer to use apk manager. I've had mixed results with uot, and find apk manager to be easy to use. Also, I don't have to "wait for my turn."
Exactly! I didn't know how much the OP knew about apk manager so I didn't post instructions on how to theme the framework-res.apk to have a circle battery. But hey now the OP has two options

Since you had quoted me in your post, I assumed you were directing your reply to me. Perhaps if you had quoted the OP, your intent would have been more clear.

That is true 808bill. Well since his question is answered now I'll be leaving this thread, no need to spam it with off-topic post, I don't want to get into trouble. But nice talking with you though 808billl.

Hey, I had a similar question as the OP. I was wondering where I could find the circle battery mod for the latest aosp 2.3.3 GB ROM (4/29). Do you mind maybe posting a step by step tutorial on how to use APK manager to do this?

808bill posted that in the aospCMod thread, click on his name and all posts, find it Also, pfer10 put up a good tutorial of how to make the mod on the wiki www.romrepo.info/wiki - I've never done it, but I *think* that's where bill learned it?
Thanks! Unfortunately, it looks like I can't use it because I'm on a mac.

That's what I thought. Just double checking ;p
Thanks trying it
I was running 4.1.83 and after installing the debdroid zip with tenfar I no longer have data. I am at work and unable to do much with this so i will try to fix it later.
The zip does not work with Tenfar's recovery.
Extract the zip and place all the files in the corresponding directories on your phone.
oops, totally my fault for not reading ANY of the directions. I was in a hurry to get it on my phone and play with it at work. Now my APN wont stay for some reason. I can send and receive texts but i have no up/down arrows under my H+ icon. I am sure an sbf flash tomorrow will fix it.

I know how to draw the patch, I want to know about saving it with the proper extension. Save for web saves at as filename.9.png.png
What do I do? Just remove the second .png extension? Search yielded no useful results.
Proper extension is file_name.9.png. Simply delete the second .png extension. It works for me. Or when You edit the xxx.9.png file simply click File>Save as...>and save it with the same name
