Battery Icon on titlebar showing Low Batt icon at 40%, why?

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?

[Q] Battery %

I have seen in a bunch of threads where people talk about the % of their battery and how it drops from 100 to 90 right when they take it off of the charger...how do they know that? The only time I can see the battery % is when it is plugged in. What am I missing?
There are Widgets on the market to show you the percentage and some roms have it included or need to manually turn it on like cm6..

Can you name a good one? Something that is monitoring battery power seems like it would drain the battery more?
You could install the smoothsense theme which comes with a custom battery icon that has percentage in it
Are there any apps that work?

Battery indicator pro, batstat widget, or if you're rooted you could flash a battery icon mod onto your stock rom like what I use in my attached file.

Thank you. Do I just put the apk on my phone and run it?
battery status can be found in the market...good percentage indicator and free too
"Battery monitor" off the market is very good. Epic comes with it, so I dl'd it for my Evo and it's very good. Free too.
I made a version of something like Haus's battery code. Mine are round and have indiviual % (100, 99, 98...3,2,1)
Green: 30-100%
Orange: 15-29%
Red: 0-14%

Just flash it. (It will replace your current framework-res.apk)
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP FIRST!

Battery percentage on the notification panel

Hi everyone, just got LG G7 from tmobile. I am confused, almost on every picture on the internet I see battery percentage in the top right corner of the screen. In my case in order for me to see battery % I need to pull down the notification panel. Is there a way to fix that? I already went to battery settings and switched on the option to show the battery % in notifications panel. Please help.

I was about to post the same question so I'm looking for the answer too...
If you go into Settings and then Battery, there is a toggle that says "Battery Percentage on status bar".

Ok, I was just messing with it and you are right. It will never show it in the notch but it toggles that option in the notification drop down.
I love the phone, but seriously, what is the point of calling this a second screen if you still have to pull down the notification bar to see the icons?
I hope they add an option for always show icons....

Hmm, that is kind of odd. I wonder the reasoning for the bug on T-Mobile version?
Oh you know what, he's right. I been too busy gaming to realize it shows all the time outside of games.
Well as you can see in the screenshot below, it does not show up on the T-Mobile version of the G7

I have T-Mobile variant and it does show on mine. Did you update the device?
I'm on T-Mobile, and it's showing just fine for me, no pull-down required. Toggling "Battery percentage on status bar" in Settings | Battery toggles it off and on (for me, anyway).
I did a factory reset and now I have the percentage in the notification bar. Perhaps it a bug??
Has to do with display size. Turn it all the way down.

You need to enable two things for this to work.
Go into Settings and then Battery and turn on "Battery percentage on status bar". \
You also need to select Standard from New Second Screen settings.

I have both set as you do and it still does not show. I am on to too
Ok tried everything. The only solution that works is to go to display settings and move the slider all the way to the left, the smallest size. Nothing else will work.

Yes this is the only solution that seems to work, good job guys
Now the question is, how do you make display size bigger without loosing the battery % in the notification panel? ?
