Battery percentage - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

What battery percentage app is good? Something low resource with no impact to battery life? Tried power toggles but crashes on me.

There's Battery Widget Reborn with a beta and paid version ($1.99) but..not sure how it is with battery resource hogging.

It's very passive, have never seen it use any measurable power. Very useful features as well.

Bataria Pro is nice, has statusbar integration, widgets, battery saving options, toggles, good battery info and even a simple memory /task manager.

Thanks. BWR seems to be working well. Using beta will try for few days then buy pro. Any other experiences?

I use GSam Battery Monitor. Fantastic application and has some nice battery icons to choose from.

Battery Indicator worked well on my Nexus S. Haven't tried on the N4. No ads and open source apparently.

I use BatteryTime Lite and I can't say that I've noticed that it drains my battery. The best thing about it is that I don't have to run a widget on my desktop. I just have a wee percentage indicator in the status bar that tells me how much juice I have left. I would recommend this.

Recast (My #1 right now), Fancy Widgets, Beautiful Widgets
Themes and apps. But yeah beautiful widgets or hd widgets are good
DO YOU JELLY?
Well, i did try out HD widgets. Did not really like their designs. I currently use a combination of Beautiful Widgets and BeWeather.
Any other suggestions?

Make your own clock widget. Supports battery, time, date and some others. For more battery specific info I use battery monitor widget alongside system tuner by 3c. Those two are hands down the best monitoring apps.

I actually like Go Weather, but you can only use it with Go Launcher.
try UCCW. u can create ur own widgets.
Premium widgets
Thanks all. I'm currently using this Super Clock Live Wallpaper, and I am liking it.

Try One More Clock widget. Free and Paid version. Check out his Chrome Rings Theme!

I've been interested in getting this app for a while and finally hit the switch, pretty amazing, if anyone interested get it right now.

I got away from it. Huge lack of new designs and problems with widgets displaying properly.

And what would be the modern beautiful widgets?

Yep...HD widgets is the way to go.
Got it on sale recently and it is excellent. The customisation options go real deep. Some beautiful clocks and weather options.
I don't use any other clock or weather widget on any of my devices anymore now.

Even Fancy Widgets is better than Beautiful Widgets
Ditto. Bought it because I had read so many good comments about it in the past, but I was kind of disappointed in it. Back to "Make Your Clock" where you just roll your own from scratch.
I've had this one for a while and like it quite a bit. Pretty broad selection of themes, though as others have said, it has been a while since much new material has been added. Never had any significant problems with it in terms of functionality, either with my Evo or my GNex.

I don't have any problems with Beautiful Widgets. I personally don't like HD Widgets as I find their widgets aren't are as nice.

Launchers and themes

What does everyone use for launchers? Any one have a good minimalistic theme? I'm running xylon11
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
Only "stock" launcher I use on GNex
I really really like nova. I know some have mixed opinions about it but it serves Me well. Also I just started making custom wallpapers for xylon . I go pretty minimal. One screen and folders with circle click widget and Bob click and nice wallpaper. That's about all I can say on that topic.

I use Nova Launcher Prime. the customization level is very high and I like a lot the gesture function toghether with the ROM actions ..
Maybe the negative thing is the ram occupation.
I'm using silky smooth Xperia launcher. But usually ADW Ex. It is amazing. He just updated maybe 2 months ago. Very tablety.

Motorola Home Launcher & Circle Widget Razr M for Note 2

So this is not my theme or mod, props go to our friends at Motorola and the Razr Series of phones. I love thier Circle Widget so I found away to install the whole launcher from the Razr Series on ANY rom so they claim, I am running Rooted CleanRom 4.6 and a custom theme and Saber Kernel and I could not get the messaging apk and motoemail apk to work but I am just using my stock ones.
Also I would rather just have the Circle Widget by itself but couldn't get it to work without the homelauncher.apk if anyone knows of away please let me know.
Here's some screenshots and the installation instructions

No that widget is not the same as in it is not interactive like the real one, it does not 'flip' the circles to show the additional features. It is a good visual copy though

The widget is great. I used to have a RAZR hd. But the launcher is kind of laggy for me. Anyone else tried it?

Thanks. Love the launcher. Using this as my main one now.
