I have Cyangen on my incredible and I was wondering if I could replace the battery icon with an icon that has the percentage on it. I have battery issues and would like to have granular notification of the battery status.
I had a sense rom that had this built in. Now that i'm running cyanogen I would like it back.
Its also built-in you have to turn it on. It should b under settings, cm settings, you can change lots of ui settings, i.e....clock color, batt %, etc

You can use this site to change the battery icon among other things you can try the UOT Kitchen.
(Sorry, I haven't posted enough to be able to post links, so just Google the UOT Kitchen)
UOT Kitchen Thread is at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=775970

it's pretty simple todo yourself. find a ROM that has that mod, and take some files from the drawable file add it to yours and then edit the pngs.. lou made a video its on his rom page to help with this specifically.
Here is a ICS like Status Bar Pull Down I made for my brother for the [ROM][30-01-2012][VIVOW]Virtuous Affinity 2.05.0 based on Runnymede
EDIT: this will give you the blue HoneyComb 1-100% battery, and changes evdo to 3g icons.

Very nice bro. Looks real sick. Now if only we could get real ics sense up in here lol.
Would love to get this inverted dropdown without the battery and 3g mod. Already have the ones I want. Is it possible to unzip, remove the battery and 3g and zip it back and flash? Or do you have to change more stuff within the zip file?
I'd like to see the GPS icon completely removed. It just wastes space.
Thanks for this mod andybones and much respect for all the work you do for us. I've been looking for something like this since there are not too many mods made for the Virtuous Affinity 2.05.0 ROM.
you should make one with a white hc battery, thatd make my effin day
It's most likely possible to use the UOT Kitchen to make a white HC battery mod that you can flash over the top of this mod. Please correct me if I'm wrong though.

OK, many of you are like me and have been looking for 1% battery increments on the amazing ParanoidAndroid ROM. The devs have been working so hard on making the rest of the ROM great for us that they just haven't had a chance to add battery %. So I've made a theme for just that purpose! I know you can install one of thousands of themes out there that add battery %, but I have always been partial to the stock look of ICS and JB, so my theme will only add battery percent icons, nothing more. It applies via the built-in theme manager, so no flashing required! Just download the theme you want from the attachments below and install/apply like always. Also, ATTACK has made a great flashable zip that will do the same thing as my theme, so this just comes down to personal preference. Regardless of which method you use, please swing by his thread and hit thanks on ATTACK. It's his icon pack that has made most of these (maybe all) possible, given my rather limited photoshop skills. He OK'd the use of the icons, but I'd like to give him "something" back.
I've got 14 themes so far.

4. Thin style with ICS blue percentages to the left. Called CM Thin. DOWNLOAD
5. Numbers only. DOWNLOAD

7. Roboto font numbers only. No charging animation, just static green text while charging. DOWNLOAD
8. Off-Center. DOWNLOAD
9. ICS Circle battery. DOWNLOAD
10. Dotted circle. DOWNLOAD
11. Honeycomb style. DOWNLOAD
12. Digital theme DOWNLOAD
13. SGS 3 Style icons. DOWNLOAD
14. Percent Numbers, better than Roboto. DOWNLOAD
Each theme of icons can be installed side by side on the same phone. This way, if you want to change between different icons, you have the ability to do just that, without uninstalling or reinstalling anything.
Disclaimers/Warnings:
*This is my first attempt at theming, but it has been running perfectly on my own Paranoid GNex for 2 1/2 days now, and another member (ben.nesheim) was kind enough to test as well. He has had no problems in approx 18 hours. However, if for some reason you run into problems (themes won't apply, phone dies, ROM borked, dragons flying out of the charging port, etc... ), I am not responsible. I will help you however I can, though. I honestly can't think of anything this theme could do to your phone anyway, but you never know.
*MAKE A BACKUP! I know that sounds silly for a theme, but since this is my first try, I suggest you have a backup just in case. Again, there are two phones so far that have had no problems, but that doesn't mean they'll all work perfectly. So far I've had a good bit of downloads and comments in this thread, and I think it's safe to say its stable. Still, make a backup just in case... lol
*The theme works in all standard UI modes, (phone, phablet, various tablet) but I can't test every configuration out there. If you have issues let me know and I'll see if I can fix it.
*You will most likely get the "This theme is missing assets for your screen size" message, but hit apply anyway. I think I know how to fix it, but I haven't had a chance to test it. It still works fine like this, and almost all themes I've ever seen throw this message.
*It should work on each version of PA that comes out, but there is a chance something will change to break it. I'm really not sure. I'll test when each version comes out, until there's no more demand for this theme.
Thanks for looking, and if anybody has any issues or requests, feel free to let me know!! Enjoy!

That's a good idea. I hadn't thought of that. I've been wracking my brain trying to decide how to pretty up the preview image and where to get it from and I never once thought about a screenshot. lol I will try and make that change tomorrow morning too...

Just download the fullcircle apk from the OP and install it. It'll install and apply right beside the other theme. The rar package is just some other battery icons another member posted, and if there's a set of icons in there you like, I'll make a theme for them.
I'm really glad to see people are getting some use out of this! If anybody has any requests from that RAR, just let me know. I'm also glad it works on a nexus 4, I wasn't too sure about that at first.
Thanks!

What do you guys think about packages with different icons for different screen configurations? I know for me, in any of the tablet UI's, the batteries are kinda hard to read, except maybe the thin one. I thought about making a theme where you have one set of icons in phone or phablet UI, like full circle for example, and a text only battery in tablet UI's because it's easier to read, or the thin battery. Would any of you be interested in that? If so, what batteries would you like in each UI? I don't think I'm quite smart enough yet to make it user configurable, so I'll have to build it with the icons you want.
Let me know what you think!
@Kick-Ass Joe: I think I'm going to create a thread in the Nexus 4 forum since you said it worked on your phone. I wasn't too sure if it would be cross-compatible on other phones, but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be. Your post confirms that. Thanks!

I wouldn't be adverse at all to this. I've been looking for a battery percentage that is readable on tablet mode with the bottom task bar only. I flashed a different one but that was far too small. I might give the thin battery a go!

Is it in that RAR file attached to the op? What's the name of the folder if it is? If not, can you describe it a little more and I'll see if I can make the icons? I'm not so great at graphic editing, but I will try my best.
Loving stock cm with every thing I'm glad this is working so well
