battery only shows in 10% increments? - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

hey, first of all i must say im absolutely in love with the tp2, its certainly the best phone ive ever used and a world of difference compared to my kaiser. The screen is beautiful, pictures and videos look superb, audio quality is fantastic and tflo is incredibly smooth and responsive. The keyboard is phenomenal and a joy to type on.
Ive only got one small problem, my battery meter only seems to show the level in 10% increments from stock. This is a little annoying. Im now using brians taskbar skin which works perfectly (and looks awesome) but the problem of only showing in 10% is quite annoying.
Is this common with the phone? Anyway to display in 1%'s
MOD EDIT: This is now fixed: see this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=527006

here is a cab file here on XDA which enables windows mobile to show the battery status per 1%.
It should work on all WM 6.x versions. Do a search (I think its in the hacking & development forum) and you'll find it.

thats great
havign a bit of trouble finding it though (i think it might be my phrasing) but do you remember what it might be called? the only one ive found that might be it is Numbattery. unfortunately cant check until later.

I found this one but is it just for SE X1 or any WM 6.1 device?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514647

I think he might be referring to nuePower. I would back up the system before installing though. I've had issues where, after installing it, the device refused to charge. After restoring a backup, it was fine.

any solution???

I have tried the no2chem 6800 cab file and that did not work. Just gave zero percent battery level all the time.

Ok,
What is it we are trying to do here, is it change the Battery level in the Top Icons to 1% increments or the actual Powerbars in Settings - Power?
If its the top bars I can create any that you like and have them posted on here as either a cab file or dll

I suspect the original poster ideally would like power to show in 1% increments wherever it is displayed. If that is not possible, it would seem to me the power meter on the task bar would be most useful.

Can't say for the OP but I would certainly like battery reporting programms/addons such as Batti and Devstate to report the level down to 1% steps as supposed to 10% increments as is the case at the moment. On the Touch HD it was 1% but on the TP2 it is 10%. If you could manage that, it would be grand.

Ok, leave it with me, I'll get some done tonight with %ages on them. I'll probably use Misfortunes "Wheel" as the graphics and do the scale to 1-100, I'll post as a cab which does the reg edit too.

I might be misunderstanding, but I don't think new graphics will do the trick. I believe the device itself only reports battery level in 10% increments, so new graphics will still drop and rise by 10% at a time.

Not in the task bar they wont. The phcanoverbmp.dll (think thats the name of the top of my head) holds various images in ( this is for top bar icons) and there is a reg edit to tell WM to use 1-101 icons rather than 1-11. It will work for TopIcons, might also have a knock on effect for other programs, only trying will tell.

What is the registry edit? I could try it out right now. I'm trying to wrap my limited brain around why this will work. Your solutions suggests that there is a registry tweak to show 100 icons instead of 10 (roughly). But if the device actually only reports battery percent in 10% segments, then I don't see how this will work. It will still only show the icon associated with what the device actually reports.

If you do the reg edit without the icons available then your TopBar Icon won't work as it is now. You need both together to be able to use it. I'll get all posted tonight so you have it.

Just to clarify, I am talking about the TopBar Icons, they will show 1-101 images. I don't know if this will have a positive effect on other areas. (I know it wont have a negative effect!)

how can we remove this Battery icon for the clock

Hi All
Does anyone know how to change the Battery Icon on the new ROM. This is the same screen when I was back using the Hima05.
Hey, Buzz sir, could you give us a flash on this? I have searched for the Reg but without luck.
Thank
Julius
I don't know how to do this, but check this post, it's a small plugin that replaces the standard date/time plugin with configurable format and internet (swatch) time support!!
http://www.pocketpt.net/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=6&t=8229
Here's a screenshot of it!
neat Though not seeing a download link (might have to be logged in, I suppose). But getting rid of the battery icon altogether would be nicest for the matter at hand

I'm still improving it, so any bugs detected or sugestions are very much welcome and apreciated!
Looks nice,
an option to add the week number shuold be nice.
I can't really give suggestions as I've poured a bunch of cash into a project much like it - figures, two projects that are very much like it pop up right after I do so, and a long time after I openly requested it. That's life eh ?
But here's two bugs
- even though you seem to imply that seconds are accepted, it doesn't seem to update per-second
- when installing, add Selectability=1 to make sure users can navigate to the item with the d-pad/arrows and use the OK/enter button to 'tap' it so they can enter the date/time/alarm/etc. controls

Good work! New Battery at TitleBar is really annoying...
A few suggestions, if it is not asking too much
- Internet Time should be inserted with proper syntax configuration (for instance 'i, HH:MM' or '@, HH:MM'). This way user could choose to have it or not.
- Font size configuration would be also very welcomed. I use Today font size at the minimum, but for TodayTime I'd like to see it larger.
- When Today screen displays a lot of items and the left scrollbar gets displayed, it overlaps left part of time string
I was able to overcome this inserting a few sapces at end of time format string. However it would be nice to have it always right justified.
(Há Tugas por todo o lado )
In order to speed-up confgurations after Hard Resets... I'm installing 'TodayTime' among several other apps, from ExtROM and customize settings via a cab file at ExtROM also.
It happens that 'date' and 'time' format strings are stored into registry, at keys with very unusual names (see bellow).
In fact they include special characters like horizontal TAB (HT) and Vertical TAB (VT), where spaces seem to be.
...it must be something automatically generated...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\TodayTime]
"RightFormat TodayTime(Software\\Microsoft\\Today\\Items\\TodayTime"="HH:mm "
"LeftFormatRightFormat TodayTime(Software\\Microsoft\\Today\\Items\\TodayTime"="yyyy MMM dd, ddd"
This causes a lot of problems to loaders (specially the VT), and in fact didn't find a solution yet.
Can't you use more "regular" registry key names!?
e.g.
"RightFormat"
"LeftFormat"
might be good to move the topic of the TodayTime today item to a new thread, and get this thread back on topic: removing the battery icon from the taskbar in AKU2 roms.

Battery Gauge CAB

There is a little utility available here that I think is suberb - it's a little battery gauge that runs across the top of the screen (see the screenshot) but noone as far as I could find has ever created a cab for it.
Well, here it is It's a brilliant little app - like batti but more colourful ;-)
The cab will install the app in program files and create a shortcut in the startup folder to run it on startup. I've had absolutely no problem with this but as always, make your own backup first !
It is possible to change various things like the colours, size etc and also to hide portions to make it go behind buttons etc. in wisbar skins
I must stress that I did not write this app and take no credit for it - that belongs entirely to ins0mniaque for producing a brill little app
I just thought everyone else should know about it
Smiffy.
Does this have the same problem of replicating itself every time the application is launched? Seems like that was an issue in the original thread.

Will any of these programs accurately measure the life of the battery?
Shogunmark and Faira were talking about this issue (some time ago) where the battery would only decrease by 10%, not 1% like on the wizards.

Why would you keep launching the application? Isn't once enough?
I've read the thread and that only occured because someone was messing with the settings.
As for the apps posted by juvs - they seem a bit..."flat" to me - the one i cabbed looks nice and 3d on mine (as much as a 3-pixel-high app can, anyway ) and I don't like the memory gauge on the bottom of the taskbar - that's intrusive if you ask me.
Now p*** off and get your own thread
Smiffy.
I wish there was a way to change the color of the bar. I don't like that fruity rainbow color. It looks bad IMO.
I've been using the O2 battery meter for now. It matches the color of the theme and doesn't stand out like a rainbow does:
(My battery is at 100% now, but when it goes down the bar reduces in size and leaves gray behind.)

Thanks for posting it (and nicking my sig LOL )

If it's yours, you must use it on another board - 4winmobile perhaps? I didn't remember seeing anyone on here with it when I "adopted" it
Besides, it's so fitting

Apology accepted
Yeah, it is fitting - it's a good reminder to n00bs to "engage brain before opening mouth" Sadly, that doesn't happen often enough.....
You're right, I do use it elsewhere - MoDaCo, 4WM "and many, many more"
I don't mind you "adopting" it - it's reassuring to see it being used by someone who understands its' meaning!

OrganicM said:
I was able to get the TestUIPlugin to work and update in realtime. I used mortscript to get values from "weather watcher mobile", which is free. Currently, you run the script, it loads weather watcher, copies over the forecast data, updates the registry entries for testuiplugin, updates the plugin, and closes weather watcher in the background. It's not very elegant right now, because it uses mortscript. Maybe someone can write a standalone exe based on my work.
Here's what it looks like right now. Any ideas to improve the layout ?

Hey OrganicM, It looks sick but if i could suggest something, then it would be the title, instead of making the "temperature" the title, why not make it My Weather or something along those lines and underneath it - you could make a line for the temperature, upto u - otherwise it looks amazing - Keep up the good work and post a .cab when ur done
Good Luck !
I know, that's what I wanted to do initially, but this damn TestUIPlugin, will NOT let me do two lines of text!! Only thing I could do, is append the current temperature at the end of the forecast blurb... But it wouldn't really make it stand out.

Hi OrganicM!
Nice job you done with this app.
I took a look at your cab _setup.xml and I was wondering what needs to be changed to the Chome_320x240.cpr for the app to work, since I prefer my chubby panels and its icons and overall layout (just a matter of taste, you know).
Perhaps you could post a little step by step guide for the ones like me who want to implement it by hand, with the needed files in a single compressed file (zip, rar, your choice really, I've already got them from the cab ).
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

If I'm not mistaken, I thought he intended to post the .cab for the "chubby panels" soon anyway. I am on the same page with you, Cassiano.

Updated first post again, this time I added a "last updated" time in the top right corner. This gets updated everytime the weather script runs, so you have an idea how recent the info is.
Alright...for some reason it won't allow my city to be displayed when setting up Weather Watcher. It'll take me to a blank IE screen. I made the change to my city in 'Options', like instructed. Then tried to open 'Update Weather'. It would take me back to the blank IE screen. On the homescreen--the weather sliding panel is blank and just has a sun in it. Is there something I'm not doing?

ODSHOWeather WM6.1: Round 3Mb on Phone Mem, New Cab!! (08-29-08)

It is finally here for download, Weather with radar,forecast,hurricane,and a SYSTEM MONITOR!!!!
For Forum Viewers:
I am pleased to release the latest updated version of our weather for wm 6.1.
I have spent lots of hours with Showaco revamping the layout. We are please to see that our old cab had hundreds of downloads, so we're pretty sure you are all gonna love this.
Check it. We have gotten rid of a forecast panel that messes up the layouts for one of your other panels. We went with a complete revolution to the way you display multiple full screen panels, with different info, and pics. Guaranteed no other weather exists like this for your WM6.1 smartphone.
We hope you like it alot. This new forecast will switch between your current homescreen, no matter what it is, EVEN IF IT IS NOT ONE OF OUR LAYOUTS!!! That's right, if you mod your screen, but still want to use the forecast panels, no problem. Just go to the link in your start menu, and it will switch to our forecast panels, and press on any of the forecast days or their right soft key, and BAM. You are right back to your original homescreen. So you can use one of the several layouts we preset for you, or you can make your own. If you do, I highly suggest using Showaco's CPR and DLL switcher app. It is very sweet for us, modders.
Below are instructions on how to install and how to use. Same as before, there are layouts for 5 day,4,3,2 day, and Current Day forecast for the clock, as well as layouts with a monitor with background for the clock or without. I have added several new options in the advanced options menu. One of which is to enable audibles during updates. So, if you want, you can have auditory announcement during the updating process. Use if you want or not. The possibilites are becoming endless.
LOOK AT POST #33, FOR MORE PICS OF OTHER ADDITIONAL LAYOUTS!!!
NOTE: I have added a new homescreen layout for windows mobile 6.1 standard. It is a sliding panel with media homescreen. It is just set up best for our new app. So, just go to the homescreen layouts section at any time and choose, kennys sliding panel. That's it. Your phone will be complete.
Instructions:
******MAKE SURE YOU READ THE UNINSTALL NOTES & BACKUP YOUR REGS BEFORE INSTALLING, IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR************
1. Download the cab from xda site from link below.
2. Copy the cab to your smartphone.
3. Navigate, using your phone, to the place that you copied the cab, and click on the cab's icon.
4. You will then automatically begin installing the application.
5. Once install is complete, go to ODSHOWeather Options in your start menu and set up all of your options.
6. Reboot if needed.
7. If weather update has not already been completed at this point. Run weather update. If you are not sure where to start it,
just press on any page in the forecast panel, or access it through your start menu.
8. Enjoy!!!
Uninstall Notes:
If you wish to uninstall the weather app, instructions are as follows:
1. Go to settings and remove programs. Once in remove programs, select the ODSHOWeather WM6.1 Weather
2. It will uninstall, it takes up to a few minutes.
3. If any settings are messed up. Update your regs from before install.
4. To remove start menu links, just navigate using explorer on your phone or pc to remove the lnk to our app. That's it.
5. For any further questions, just Post or pm Outerdepth or Showaco on the xda forums.
Usage Instructions:
1. We have set the clock right soft key to switch to the forecast panels, press it to switch to those.
2. To return to your homescreen, just press the center button on any of the forecast panels or their right soft keys.
3. The radar, hurricane, and air quality pages have center button (actionurl) linked to the apps that update those.
DOWNLOAD LINK: Updated (08-29-2008) at 6:45 pm central time
Download Here
Download Mortscript Cab here
For anyone that needs to find their city code, use this link and change the location in this url to the name of your city and then go to it and it will give a list of all cities worldwide that have that name. Get your location from there and enter it exactly as it appears in the quotes, but do not use the quotes.
http://hadle.accu-weather.com/widget...ation=calcutta
So, for this link above, if you were looking for Calcutta, India. Go to this link, and you will see a line like this:
<location cnt="1" city="Calcutta" state="India(Bangla)" location="ASI|IN|IN036|CALCUTTA" />
So your location to enter in to options would be :
ASI|IN|IN036|CALCUTTA
This should work for cities worldwide.

Thanks for the input man. I appreciate it. It is very busy if you have the monitor, but not much busier than it would be with iconbar up top. That has about the same amount of plugins as mine, but I have included a battery meter and system monitor. It's all on one line, just like the iconbar, and with the iconbar removed from the top, it takes up the exact same amount of space. I am sorry to hear that you don't like the busy-ness of it. Just so you know the monitor is an addon. If you don't like it, there are two other layouts without it. So no need to hate. Anything else? That was a really short reply, no other ideas? Well, if you think of something else, please, feel free to respond.

Hey dude, good to hear from you. I haven't heard from you in a while. It's nice to know you are still around. I hoped you would like the newly updated weather app. I notice you obviously think it looks too busy for you as well, cool. No need for the monitor, that's cool, I know you already have one anyways. I am thinking about making the different plugins for the monitor optional, so you can pick which ones you want and don't. If you think that's a good idea or anyone else does, please, feel free to reply. Hope you're having a good one. Take it easy, brother.
great app! I do have a question/concern...
After I installed it and did several updates, the temperatures for the 5 day stayed the same for a while, but after a few times, they finally adjusted to todays date, but with the same temps as before. Example: for wednesday it said low was 72 and high was 98, after updating it said friday was 72 - 98 even though the sliding forecast panel had the high on friday being 86.
Also, the temp. reading next to the clock stayed at 82 degrees all day and still hasn't went up or down. I live in the south and I know when it isn't 82 lol.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks again.
I'm downloading now. Looking forward to trying this out.
Living in the UK, I suspect the radar and hurricane warnings will be of little practical use but hey, I'm connected. I know what's happening.
Off to play with my new toy, will report back ...
I think I can help you
No problem, if you open your reg editor and go to HKLM\Software\Outerdepth\KPWeather, find the entry that says: fupdate.
Change that value to 1. It will run the app in its entirety. This will then reload your screen at the end of the update. What happens on this fupdate=1, is your phone runs the update for the forecast panel.
We didn't want to update the forecast panel on every update, because it adds time to updating the weather, so we have it set to update the forecast days on every 8 times, this updates the forecast panel, and the forecast icons and data on the clock panel. Sorry for the confusion.
I live in the south as well, Memphis, TN. It has horrible temps here, so I understand. I am not sure about it not updating these values for you.
PM me, and we will get to the bottom of this, quickly I am sure. Sounds like a refresh problem that's all. We will get to the bottom of this. Just pm me.

great app! I do have a question/concern...
After I installed it and did several updates, the temperatures for the 5 day stayed the same for a while, but after a few times, they finally adjusted to todays date, but with the same temps as before. Example: for wednesday it said low was 72 and high was 98, after updating it said friday was 72 - 98 even though the sliding forecast panel had the high on friday being 86.
Also, the temp. reading next to the clock stayed at 82 degrees all day and still hasn't went up or down. I live in the south and I know when it isn't 82 lol.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks again.

Look at previous post!!
This is for everyone, if you are having trouble getting the forecast icons to change at 1st, look at the previous post, this should update them once you run weather update. I will also upload a reg key for this. It is located below.
Sorry for any confusion. I will make the updated cab fix this, so when you 1st install it, there is no problem. For now, just download this reg key below, install it by clicking on it in your explorer, then run weather update. Thanks.
Edit: I have a new cab with this updating the everything the 1st time fixed. Also, I have left out some pngs on the storage card. The new cab has them. Sorry for any inconvenience. It is not prob. Just download the new cab and it will solve your problems. Sorry about any confusion. Here's the link:

Thanks.

I hate to bump my own thread.
I have to. I messed up and left some pngs out of the cab for the storage card. It will not update the forecast icons on the clock panel, so this cab fixes that. Everything else should be good. Sorry for any inconveniences.
I have tried everything under the sun to keep this app smooth. Sorry for wasting time for anybody. This is the breaks when writing software. I am glad though, to see that people don't give up. Hope you all enjoy the app!!

That's the new link to the cab.
Edit: I have given this to Faus Zayas from our forums here, this kid knows his sh!t too. He has run the fix, and now all digits update correctly. Thanks to him for being my guinea pig.
Okay.
I uninstalled the previous weather app by NRG which has been trouble-free and installed your cab as per instructions. All seemed well and what appeared to be the present conditions and forecast for somewhere within the 'Rebellious Colonies' appeared.
98F - bugger me that's cosy.
I went to options and input the magic code for the nearest place to me, a town about 10 miles and 1500ft from me, and updated.
'No data available' - I am disconsolate.
I've checked the settings, reset the phone, checked the settings, burned offerings, bought it a beer; to no avail. The cat's made itself scarce again ...
So. What have I stuffed-up?
Does it just need more beer? Or something much more fiendishly clever?
I do like the system bar, although a Bluetooth icon appears even if BT is switched off.
I've made a mess of this haven't I?
*** EDIT ***
Belay that Mr Christian, promptly uninstall our version and replace it with the latest.
Oh yes, and you can stop flogging the cabin-boy now ...
so far, works like a champ!
Thanks for your hard work on it!!
Bugger, I haven't the foggiest, what you just said?
No, just kidding. I understood most of what you said. Either that was for a quick jest or that was a drunken rant. Either way, that was frickin swizzle up in the hizzle for rizzle my nizzle. That's izzle.
Church, Hollah!!!

Hey everyone, I wanted to say:
I am glad the new cab seems to have fixed all probs. I want to add that there are other digits you can use that are in your storage card. They vary in color. You can customize this with these. For now, until I get this as an option. You can just copy the digits in any of the digits folders, and paste them over the originals. Then reupdate the weather to see your reflected changes.
There are many to choose from. Hope you enjoy.
hi
I was wondering if there is anyway I can make ODSHOWeather display in it's own panel and not take over the Carrier/Time panel?
Hi Outerdepth
How did you manage to get myPhoto more than 10 from the pictures files saved in the storage card?

It could be done by addng a current conditions page to the forecast panel. But not with multiple days on one page, only current for one page and each forecast day with its own page.
Another way is I could write you something that you could map to a key which would let you show and hide clock weather with the push of a button. The change would take a couple of seconds it wouldn't be instant.
Love this app!! Guys feel free to put it in the directorys over at TxCaesar. I have some questions:
the system monitor, seems to show messages when there are none, and the status of the batter is wrong. it almost seems like its just a pic file..am I doing something wrong?
Thanks again for all that youve done!!

Edit: NVM I think i need to go back to school to read..I reread the first post.

can this be done already? I enabled full version of display but still get current conditions on the carrier plug and forecast on it's own panel.

this is a feature that is really interesting. if ever it is implemented may i suggest it be added as optional.
again amazing work on this app

[Q] How to split series

Hi, I'm currently designing template, but I'm having trouble with the "Series layout". I need to split the series or add space between let's say Tuesday and Wednesday, but I can not figure out how to do that. To explain you what I'm trying to achieve is that I have vertical battery percentage bar and I want the horizontal series of Monday to Sunday going through this bar. And here comes my issue, as you can't edit series the way you can with other stuff, so I can't edit the code to add space between specific days. I know I could use spacing, but that would put spaces everywhere which would ruin the design. So is there a way how to do this, or is it just not possible at all?
Thank you

I don't think it's possible with the build in series, but you could make your own with some rich text modules, markup/BB code and advanced parameters:

Comes pretty close I think, here's the examle template I made, I made it on my tablet so I don't know how it scales on a phone but at least you can see how it works

Yeah, I tried to do that... then after hour of messing around I've realized I don't know what the hell I'm doing..
Anyway, yours design is sort of what I want, so I should be able to edit it to my preference. Thank you!
/EDIT:
Yup, exactly what I needed. Awesome! And big thank you for this!
