Hey there. I am using the latest PAC rom on xperia arc, (4/7/2014) and there seems to be a problem with the battery tile. The icon and text seem to be out of position. I will provide a screenshot. I think this must be a problem for all low resolution devices, not just mine, this is why i am posting it here. Also, it would be nice to make it change accordingly to the battery icon (make it a circle when the battery icon is a circle for example). Also, being able to change the colours (regular and when charging) for the battery icon would be a nice addition. Thank you for this awesome ROM!!!

I have search high, and low, and all I seem to be able to find is that you need to have a rooted device to be able to change the icons in the status bar, and what not. Well my slide is rooted, but I do no see any where that tells how to change them, or change the battery icon to show % and what not. Could someone point me in a direction, or give me some pointers on how to change the icons? Mainly the battery app/icon, I want one that shows % in the right, which most apps will show a % but then I have 2 battery icons, I just want the 1.
Along the lines of his question. Whatever happened to the status bar/tweak options in CM Settings for CM7?
They are implementing the color changing through the themes app they are providing. I wouldnt be suprised if the theme process will eventually cover the unlock slider aswell.
I've searched this forum but does anyone know how to display the battery in status bar like in old CM builds?
Do you mean battery percentage? No unless you flash a battery % mod then it won't be viewable. Its not an option in CMsettings for some reason, I think its due to the way that the battery is vertical and its not very big so theres not much room for numbers.
There are apps that can put your battery % in the notifications bar, but really this just drains more battery than its worth. What I've been doing is in CMsettings under Lockscreen you can set to always show the battery % on the lockscreen. That way every time you turn the phone on you can glance at the %.

An update for you OP, the builds I think after nightly #5 of CM7 have an option to show the battery % in place of the battery icon in the normal status bar now.
so seeing the green bar isnt very helpful IMO. a percentage would be much greater. my phone is not "rooted" and i run apex launcher instead. is there a simple app to show me the percentage in my notification bar?
Yes there is one of my favorites is Battery Widget Reborn

you can try "settings extended"
it will also give you toggles in your notification tray. great app imo.
thanks guys, i will download both and play around with them.
the first app worked kind of. the percentage displayed on the left... but so did the battery bar on the right.
settings extended has the battery bar on the left too. but I don't understand the point of the app. it looks as if it's supposed to let me replace my notification bar with my own? but I don't understand how to do that

Have you tried Power Toggles? You get the battery percentage but also super useful toggles on the notification drop down for wifi, BT, brightness, volume etc....
For some reason there are two icons for battery (one text/one icon) and they seem to be independent of eachother in the settings.
I have turned the text battery percentage off before but made a mistake flashing the update and had to start from scratch and now I can't find it

The Viper rom comes with two battery icons, and many more can be downloaded from the Hub. You have two preinstalled -- a stock HTC icon and the Viper 5 icon which has embedded text in it. However, there is also a pure text percentage that is independent of the other two.
The battery icons can be found in VenomTweaks/Status Bar/Status Bar Tweaks/Status bar theme
Click on that and you will see the default internal battery icon. Click on that and you will see the Viper 5 icon. Apply which one you want.
Now go to Settings/Power and scroll down to "Show battery level". This is the stand alone text percentage you see in the status bar. Turn off or on.

HTC changed / eliminated the code for charging animations in recent bases. So the image is there but the system isn't telling them to show up, from what I understand

Yes, it is true! Unfortunately
When I create a new widget and have it display the battery percentage in text, it only displays -1%.
Is this a common problem or is there a fix or work around please.
