I've always used this mod in SGS1. I like it better than the vertical one because the numbers are better spread out and not so squishy.
Anyway here's my mod of Rawat's battery mod. The gfx were from old sgs1 framework and I really forgot where I got it from. Thanks to whoever who did the gfx. Thanks also to Rawat for the initial framework-res.apk.
I really only did the cut&paste and some testing, so I take no credit for this.
Hope someone finds it useful
Sorry I've been up too long doing this mod, it's time to zzz, so I can't write a detail installation instructions. But Chalid has made another similar mod (vertical battery) and has kindly put up some very detailed instructions there. Thanks! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1091177
Note: This is for KE7 firmware only, not tested with other versions.
edit: ok, seems fixed, so i've added back the attachment. refer post 5.
Installed on KE7..... However:
As expected it wipes all accounts on the phone (such as google/facebook etc.), but everytime I go into settings, accounts and sync to re-add them the whole phone freezes. As in as soon as I hit "accounts and sync" everything crashes, then goes black with only the the top of the display (I forget what you call it, with the phone signal, battery indicator etx. visable.
Then it comes back to life, but I have to restart luncher pro. Have to switch off wireless, and back on again otherwise it doesn't work either.
Also happens if I try and add any new account via contacts, or gmail.
Reverting back to original framework-res.apk cures the crashing problem. But then it's back to stock battery indicator =(
you are right. i didn't notice this coz when i replaced mine, it didn't wipe out any account, no i didn't go into settings.
ok, removed attachment for now and see if i can redo it. sorry for any inconveniences.
Shame. I liked it better than the vertical one.
Would deffo have used it. I'll keep an eye out to see if you repost it, and try again.

well ok, but i am not well versed in android hacking, so it's kind of a learning process for me too
i've re-done the framework-res, tested it for a day and seems to be fine now. here it is if you want to try it again.
The Account wiping can happen if you don't set the permissions right. Copy the framework-res.apk to /system first, change permissions to rw-r-r (644) and then move the file to /system/framework
Is it working? This looks sweet

Umm as far as I have seen no or at least I don't know how to install other than a full update using (update.zip) So if anyone knows a good way let me know also this icon is using a different progression / deplition ratio than the standard android icon.
Soon as I figure it out I will let post somethin lol.
nice job i would rock that.
As far as I know, currently the battery icon only goes by percentage in this order...10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100. You probably need to do some xml mumbo jumbo to get it to work in increments of 5.
Yeah I know that's the depletion on the reg build of androidd... I was working on this for stericson and its depletion for him is a 5% rate.
I actually have that same icon for the standard build also
would you mind sharing please?
LOL! Looks great! Not a fan of the Android logo and never will be but this is pretty cool still. I really like the prospect of increments of 5%

That part I don't know you have to edit the xml and java files I think but im not sure how to do that This was something I've been working on for someone.
I really like! My only suggestion is to maybe have more colors, like a gradient... red -> orange -> yellow -> green -> super green (if possible).

It is weird with me. I have a thing for the Android logo. I absolutely love it and really would like to be able to put your icon to use.
And for those of you who are wondering: No, I do not have a strange Android fetish. Just putting that out there.

I have no idea, but you can try to just strip the background away and leave it transparent an make sure your custom icons are Centered correctly. I haven't had the problem you're having but in theory the transparent method might work.

if you just make the icon bg's transparent then they will still look fine if you change your notibar color (unless u change it to white )
OR
you could open up one of the icons that does match the notibar and copy/paste that gradient to the one you need to fix
also, I don't know if this would create a problem but I always make sure to save icons and such as "save for web and mobile devices" in photoshop

I did try to copy onto a gradient icon that did work. For some reason it still came out wrong as you see on the image.
"save for web and mobile devices" would this help with image size? Currently they are coming out nearly triple of stock. example stock icon=1.31kb modded icon=3.97. I'm sure stripping the gradient will help but is still huge compared to stock.

This thing is frakin amazing!!
Ok so I took out everything except for what I needed. No gradient nothing else left but the white notification icon. Then exported it with "save for web & devices" (this helped on file size thanks) Now what its doing is, icon appears correctly when its slide down into position, but then the icon stock background color gets added on (wrong gradient). Its so quick but I can see it happening.
On the plus side some did change like all battery icons and wifi, but the rest seem to be doing what I explained above very frustrating. Ive attached one of the icon's that I'm working on if anybody whats to help me out.
Rom Fresh 0.3 if that helps any.
First and foremost, the script used to create this is from jt1134. My complete boredom wanted an updated MIUI build that will stay updated. This is my only android device worth a damn so I am just bored with it. Without his script I wouldn't have been able to do this. So many thanks to him.
Ported from the latest official fascinate rom and will stay updated. The theme in the picture is not default, it is only shown for theme working purposes.

Thank you for your mods. Could you please explain the process by which you removed the 'ic_contact_picture.png' from both the message list and the conversation frame.

You need to make three edits. In order to maintain code dependencies across the app, i didn't actually remove the icon, i just made it 1px by 1px. This way, it's still invisible, but doesn't break support in other areas.
In
message_list_item_recv.xml
message_list_item_send.xml
conversation_list_item.xml
in the <RelativeLayout> view, look for the ID android:id="@id/avatar" (line 6 in the sent/recv, and line 4 in conversation xml)
You need to use the following attributes under each 'text' hiearchy:
Code:
android:layout_height="1px" android:layout_width="1px"
Once each of the three .xml files has these listed in the correct spots, recompile.

I got it working perfectly, thanks again. Two quick questions though. I know you will be able to answer them.
1) How would I remove the borders around the sent and recieved messages? I included a screenshot.
EDIT: Damn, I have looked everywhere. I figured the easiest way to to do this would be to just change the color of the border to all black (#000000), but there are two different colored borders and I can't find anything referencing them in message_list_item_... or in colors.xml
2) When I push Mms.apk to system/app it does overwrite the previous apk, but it doesn't show up in the app drawer. What I had to do to install my modded apk was to replace the Mms.apk in the flashable zip I use as a theme. Specifically black exodus. I'm sure there is a way to just quickly replace the Mms.apk without flashing. How do you do it?
Once I remove the borders I will upload the apk. I wouldn't care if you posted it in your thread. You don't even need to give me credit since you basically did everything .
Thanks again for ALL your help.
Remove borders:
in message send/recv xmls
in line 6ish i think, look for position="left_upper" and change to "left_middle". same thing for "right_upper" to "right_middle" in the other one.
-edit: as far as pushing mms, i don't use a theme, and i've always pushed system apps through adb. In theory, it should still work even with a theme applied, but I'm not sure why it wouldn't.

No it isn't necessary. For me, as soon as i push it through adb, it appears in the drawer and is ready to go. You might ask Nitroz as to why this isn't working with a theme overlay, since it's his theme.

Whatever device you own, make sure you have a nandroid backup before using this app. If you get stuck in a bootloop or if your systemUI force closes, you can easily sort the problem by going into TWRP, mounting your system, opening the file explorer and deleting color.apk from system/vendor/overlay. Or you can use your nandroid.
Please note that I am not responsible if you brick your phone. Only test this app if you know what you are doing.
Thank you in advance for testing. I hope you will think it was worth your while! I'm looking forward to your feedback. Cheers!

Hi StrangerWeather,
I don't have a nexus device, I run CM13 on my SGS3 LTE, but I'll let you know if it works after my nandroid backup

Thanks a lot for this! My understanding is that it won't work with CM, but let me know. I think only AOSP based custom roms have a chance. And stock, of course.
It installs, root granted, configured, I chose a color and then reboot OK but color is not taken into account after reboot. Will you need logs? If yes, which moment exactly?

Thanks but no, logs are not needed in this particular case. I need to study how CM functions and work out a solution from that!
Can you tell me, in terms of the UI, was everything running smoothly?

Yes everything is smooth:
> Splash screen is great
> Test Notifications (after reboot): OK
> Reset and reboot: OK
> Valid button on bottom right: OK
Is the selected color supposed to be highlighted? Because it's not the case on my device. If it's not implemented, I think it should be good to know which color has been picked

Brilliant, thanks! No the selected button is not supposed to be highlighted. But it's a good idea. I hadn't thought of it!
Is normal (Material design stuff ? ) to not have the reboot button and reboot label not aligned on bottom right?

No, not normal. Look at my screenshot at the top, that's how it should be. Ok, I need to fix that!

Oh sorry, I didn't check twice your screenshots! Thanks for fixing!
Works great on tugapower n2 based on cm, although it will be overlayed by substratum if your using that

Cheers for the feedback! Yes, this is really meant for people who don't want a theme.
So did the app work for you guys or not? Anymore feedback?
