Need help from those that are familiar with creating themes. I'm not that experienced but trying to learn as much as possible.
Anyways, trying to change battery icon on Sense based rom (3.70) which comes packaged with horizontal battery. Tried changing notifications and battery to vertical type. After flashing, battery only appears if usb cable in either plugged in or not plugged in (have had it happen both ways). After unplugging the icon just disappears. Had this happen after changing to a circular battery as well.
Question is, what do I need to change along with battery icons to make this work?
Thanks.

Hi,
Anyone knows how to tweak the battery icon on the titlebar to only show the low battery icon after 20% instead of 40%?
same.
40% is much too high to be warning battery low.
same here since i installed black diamond.
also live messenger signs in, says im online, but doesnt display any contacts online.
they can message me and it works, but i cant initiate a conversation
i have that 40% thing too, was just waiting for someone else to mention it too!!
40% is too high!!
i thought this was an isolated issue.. but it seems to be WM6 RTM specific. is they any way to change it to another value (reg hack?)
Drooch
I Have this issue too, started searching the registry, but no luck so far. if anyone has any suggestions would be appreciated.
The same here. Think I got this 40% after testing LVSW latest ROM, but not sure honestly

Well, there're some problems with the dll file phcanOverbmp.dll.
We can simply hex the icon of this file to fixing the bug, maybe this's not a bug...
I thought it was an issue with black shadow hehehe. well, I'll just keep looking until someone comes up with a fix.
haha I just noticed this today on schapps and was scratching my head about it. I figured my battery was dying cause of the car charger.
There has got to be some quick registry hack for this
copy to windows folder, anna overwrite the same-name file,and then softrestart...

what exactly does this do? Remove the battery warning all together?
Hi Bingo123,
I trust you wouldnt trash my system so i have upload the dll for testings already.
Weird thing is Black Dymond's similiar Dll is 137K but yours is only 87K. I did a google check and that dll links to changing the U icon to 3G in many forums.
My battery is now at 80% let me check 3G icon also.
will keep all of ya posted. Wish me luck hahaha
This is what you need to fix messenger. I had the same problem so installed this. you can now add users too but not change avatar or display name afaict but it's a start

Huh? tcSPVm3100, We are talking about the Battery Icon on the titlebar. Nothing about Msns bro.
anyways, ITS FIXED!!!! YIPPEEE!
Bingo123! you are right. The dll fixed it. Thanks for the inspiration and guide!
For everyone else, Bingo123's DLL should fix the battery icon thingy but i when to look at the contents and saw some blank screens like phone background without a theme. I tested but didnt see any difference but then again, i only tested it for 1 hour.
Its really simple. Get a dll editor, (google it) and look for icons. I dont know why there are 2 lowbatt icons under 15 and 16 so i deleted it. Loading it back and it working A-Ok at least for the past 10 minutes with a battery amounting to 30%
Well, You have 2 options.
1. Use Bingo123's attached version or
2. Edit the DLL.
Good Luck

But fixing the Clean 3G icon routes back to square 1. The Battery icon changes to a low battery icon at 40%. Does your patch also fixes the Battery issue?

i am not looking for an application. i want to just display the percentage number close to the battery icon on the top task-bar. an application, even with a live title for displaying some info is not convenience.
thanks,

This is a good app
Moved to WP7 Software development
All software requests go in WP7 software development please.
Take it easy
O_G
i appreciate your help. i know this application is good (according to lots of people's feedback) but it is not convenient. basically if i go the setting> battery saver, i can see the percentage number over there too. i really do not think an independent application just showing the percentage value make any sense. by the way, the live title will drain the miserable battery which is not what i want.
again, i appreciate your input.
to bad, MS can not implement such easy task.

There's no drain with that app. Tried and tested.

The background service runs once every 30 minutes, updates the tile and stops again. That's not really draining the battery

Its doable. Since xboxmod has already made a custom taskbar which has to be installed via his cab only available on certain roms though.
I tried really quick couple weeks ago to edit his icons with my own to have him resign it. They are located in a DLL just like windows mobile. When I made my own taskbar back then there was an icon for each 1% increment. Now back then there was a separate reg edit to get the % to show on the taskbar. But you could just use gimp and make a transparent layer with the % over the existing icon after using Reshacker( that's what I used couple weeks ago and couldn't find the icons, though worked fine on wm, possibly not able to read wp7 dll's ????) to extract the icons from the dll, then replacing the icons in the DLL after you add the % layer.
Would take a while. Just nobody has done it yet. If someone can tell me how/ where to get the icons from xboxmods taskbar I'd take on the task, might take a week or so though.

thank you for your reply. all i need is the percentage number. no need to replace icon. i am waiting for your good news.
can you make it shown on the top bar other than using a app?

Hello, I came across MIUI Freshly Squeezed Edition. However the first I was exploring it, I found that the Status Bar text can be customized, so that it can display the Date & Time, however once I started to fiddle with it, I can no longer find that option. Could someone please help me out? Thanks!
I also found that I can move the Icons and texts in different places on the bar, but I don't see that option anymore either... so either I am blind, or I am missing something here, thanks!
Ah, the Extended Control right? By the way you said, is it the settings or the app itself vanished? Anyway, there's a separate flashable zip of Extended Control for MIUI which can be found on the web (in case of the missing app). Just make sure that you flash the right version of each zip and the rom version accordingly.
Yup! That was it! Thank you very much for your help! <3
I recently downloaded a couple new battery icons for my HTC thunder bolt rooted with Liquid smooth 3.2 rom using the rom toolbox.
I was able to change it to a new battery icon but it turns out the one i initially selected is not a 1% icon as it was indicated. Anyways I wanted to try a different one but now it wont let me change it. I did the same process with installing both but no matter what the old one persists no matter what.
the new icon did initially show up in the status bar but when i went to show a friend it was back to the first one i downloaded.
I have 2 versions of rom tool box installed on my phone. The one that came with liquid smooth 3.2 and another version from 4shared which is version 4.5.2. the latter is the one i am using to change the icons as the one that came with LS 3.2 will not let me change them.
An interesting note, upon boot the factory (LS 3.2) wifi icon will appear and only after some time will the custom green one show up but the battery icon is the first one i downloaded right off the bat never shows stock. Also there is now an alarm clock icon to the right of the battery icon which was not visible before the first battery icon was installed and proceeded to go away during the short period where the second downloaded battery icon was being displayed.
Any thoughts? I am a beginner so step by step instruction are greatly appreciated. Also, not sure where to put this, it is a question but it is related to modifying in my mind so please don't trash me and my first post if it is in the wrong section, i will re-post if so.
Thanks, Mark
Maybe it has something to do with the rom toolbox you downloaded. I would just try and buy the one from the marketplace. It helps support the dev to make the product better and you wont have to worry about that virus thats going around on 3rd party sites!
Now It displays the new one most of the time but still shows the first downloaded one while charging and at intervals of 10% during discharge. Similar to the first one downloaded, the new one is also not behaving as a 1% icon as indicated but its slightly better, 5% instead of 10%.
I would definitely buy the pro version but how do i know that will solve the issue?
Has anyone figured out how to make a battery bar that extends to a circle at full charge? I haven't figured out how to make it do anything other than make a growing straight line.
Oops, sorry just realized this was posted in the themes instead of questions. Can a mod please move it? Thanks.

Same question I want to make a battery ring along the outside edge of the face
There aren't any tags for sizing on an axis.
What you can do however is use separate images for portions of your battery indicator and turn them on with a conditional formula in the opacity field.
Something like $#BLN#>90?100:0$ would turn an image or shape on if the battery was above 90.

I actually found out directly from the dev that this will be implemented in a future version but I can tell you now it isn't in the newest betas yet
