battery percentage

Is there any way to add battery percentage on top? Like this ..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1304375

That is no problem, just received my GN adn I will soon work on it. If ICS is not completely different, it`s fairly easy.

Sounds good. The only thing i'm missing (maybe also Extended Power Menu).
Don't understand why Google does not integrate Battery Percentage as standard.

awesome, let us know

Yeah,that sounds nice..
A CM like battery percentage would be awesome

I'm using Battery Monitor at the moment for the percentage on the left side of the notification bar.

I could port my mod to GN, but I dont have the phone to test the mod
Any testers out there?

Perka, thanks so much for doing this. It's really useful.
Could someone help me make sense of how to install this? If I'm running the stock ROM, I gather I need the files in "Stock_SystemUI_framework-res_GN_Deodex_ICS.ITL41F-CWM," but then what do I _do_ with the files here? (I see apks I could install, but then there are other files too...)
Also, Perka, you mention a link in your sig to a new version with larger icons, but I can't figure out what link in your signature it would be -- I'm guessing it should be at the "Perka´s File Stash" link, but there doesn't seem to be a link there. (And the other lines in your signature don't seem relevant.)
Thanks!

You cant flash my mod on stock odex rom, and the stock files you have on your sd card so u can flash back if something happens or u dont like the mod.

a few questions regarding battery indicators

Hi guys, first time posting here been lurking for a few weeks gathering information and plucking up the courage to flash my shiny new S II with a custom rom etc.
I think im going to go for SlimICS but i have a question regarding battery indicators.
there is a battery indicator in the foxhound rom thread called Space 'Battery Universal' is there anyway to install this into SlimICS or is it only for foxhound? i googled and searched in this forum but couldnt find any information. are battery indicators universal or specific to certain roms?
also, as far as I can see there are no guides on how to install these roms. as i said i did a quick google and search but couldnt find anything, i didnt spend ALOT of time searching, so I apologise in advance if I missed something obvious.
cheers guys

you could do it as its only PNG images however SlimICS would need to have 1% increments... if it does then all you need to is replace the PNG images in SystemUI.apk (located in system/app)
I would actually recommend using my tool located here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1434061
Hope this helps..

cheers guys!
is there a guide on how to install a custom rom anywhere? ive searched high and low but cant find one, they all assume you already know what youre doing.
HTC roms had really nice guides for total noobs and i was able to flash that with relative ease.

I'll have a look...

Ok found them.. gimme a sec

Flash this zip after you've installed SlimICS.

ahh thanks mate, so after installing slimICS i just install this battery indicator using your tool and it will work?
nice.
last question, would you recommend foxhound? reading the forums it seems like these two are the nicest along with cynogen. I cant seem to decide which though, reading about cynogen it seems like alot of things dont work? whereas foxhound and slimics people seem to be quite happy.

No probs.
Yeah just flash this after SlimICS. I made it using my tool to save you the trouble.
I would recommend CM9 but I'm biased =]
The only things that don't work are FM Radio and TV out.. which I don't use anyway.
Slim is ok and so is foxhound as far as I have been told... you have to decide, Samsung based ROM or AOSP.

ahh I just read about cm9, going to install that.
but im so confused, everything says different stuff. root dont root, firmware, kernal etc.
i want to use odin as it seems the easiest way. but these guides are making my mind implode. some stuff is so confusing :/
*edit*
got cm7 on it, upgrading to 9 now

If you're already rooted, you just need the flashable zip and maybe download the ICS bootloader (try flashing the ROM without the ICS first, if you don't need it, don't flash it)

just did everything, looks nice!!!
can i still flash that batt indicator onto cm9?

Space Battery for CM9
Hope this helps.

cheers man!
just out of interest, how do you make one for separate roms?
just so I can do it my self next time

with my tool...
It should work with both CM* and LP* based ROMs.

ummm, i flashed the zip you gave me for slim ics and now i have no status bar, and got some kind of system ui error on startup. ;(
I forgot to backup before i Installed it too, is there anyway to fix this or am I going to need to reinstall slim ics?

FI03 Custom Bootanimation Fix

I finally figured out why bootanimations no longer work in FI03 (I didn't bother checking FH23, I'm sure it will work for that build too).
I did a diff of all the lib files (there were 33) and narrowed it down to libsurfaceflinger.so. The file is showing a different binary signature between FH13 and FI03 even though they are exactly the same size byte for byte. If you take the file from FH13, custom bootanimation now works. :victory:
Give it a try and let me know if it works for you.

That is the same file you replace to fix the flicker after crt off animation. Nice job, i wonder how it changed to stop boot animations.

That's correct, I almost forgot about that. Once I finally got around to trying the lib, it was the first file I replaced when I spotted it in the list.

Not really necessary but I suppose it couldn't hurt. If anyone finds out one way or another let us know and I can alter the flashable to wipe cache as well.

So.... Still how do you make bootanimations work? I've got one in system/media and one in data/ etc. ..... Still no luck. Just does the international s2 animation

Yes, FI25 is working for custom bootanimations again (as long as the kernel you are using has custom bootanimation support).
I have a bunch of custom bootanimations ported over from Rom Toolbox if anyone wants to try them out. The link is in my sig.

you need to edit your installer script for hotboot when you install the rom...
Add this after it installs busybox.
symlink("busybox", "/system/xbin/pkill");
That should do it.
It is comfirmed working on mine. and will be fixed on my rom in 1.1.0 - works perfect!!!
Please share the 1% battery mod, and blaxk statusbar... or just PM me... or talk - mortgagewithjosh

You need to remove this line from the updater-script in this zip

You should only use the Tablet boot animations from romtoolbox and you can also preview them to see if they are the right size at least on the pro version u can
