Has anyone seen an article or video showing this really does work?
Of all the things it features this one I have not seen or heard much about.

Yes, it works.. It kicks in on file transfers larger than 30MB that use the HTTP protocol and maybe a couple others.
I see it kick in all the time on Youtube..
Youll see a toast notification popup and there will be a meter in the notification bar..

a tool using the direct arm dll that fiinix @ XDA wrote in DllImport.
HTC Battery Tool does it with all sorts of info, this one is just simple, to the point.
I did this almost a month ago to date and had it as a live tile. I use it ALL THE TIME so I thought I would pass it along to all the fellow side loaders on here.
enjoy it, use it or whatever
thanks:
fiinix @ XDA
if you already use a battery percentage notification, tell me which one below?
thanks in advance, hope this helps someone as it has helped me.
Code:
edit: added cleaner NoDo_nation version because, who am I kidding anyway.
Very interest, I use this one till now and it work top.
I will tray out your Battery-Tool and report. Thanks.
Edit: Work like it have to work, good making and no conflict with the PhoneRestartTool with the code/dll from fiinix.
Great work on this!
Lovely, that's very nice.
Do you thinkt it'd be possible to add a live tile to that?
I know a lot of people are already sick of having to many of them but I could still use a couple more and one of them I'd like to be something like this
I've been experimenting a LOT with live tiles -- the result of which I am not happy with.
It is a bit of a catch22 because of the way you need to subscribe the live tile. I've short-fused the subscription whereas I can get a live tile update direct from code but the catch22 is the fact that the program has to run first to do it.
So what you end up with is a stale tile all the time. I'm not out of options quite yet but without running on a true background thread or the like, it almost looks like a "stalemate" -- no pun, well, whatever.

You need jaxbot hack enabled and then still hope it will be able to push trough in the background.
Its far from reliable and will probably drain battery fast since there is no way to manage tasks yet, all tasks keep running in the background if you dont close them by pressing the back button (but you also should not kill the battery app ofcourse) which is indeed pretty much impossible, certainly for the average user to manage. You can juts better swipe down the task bar or just open the app
Nice job. Using the NoDo version.

Does this one fix the conflicts with other apps that this one has? I know both use the dll import project which is why I ask. I tried the previous one for a few days but found it caused severe problems with the Weather Channel app and the TouchXperience app. They wouldn't load after checking the battery app. I will give it a run through and see how it works out.

It should not cause problems -- I use the Weather Channel app and also the TouchXperience app and have not noticed any conflicts of any sort. If you discover them, I have the source code open and ready to modify at any time.
Thanks in advance to all the comments and thanks in my first post!
ps. I had someone ask me if I could add a voice that spoke the percentage. I can. If I get enough people interested in the feature, I could probably have it done in an hour. Let me know if this is something that would set this app apart from the others or just unnecessary junk?

Any way I can see mA usage? Trying to crack down on battery usage... Nodo user here btw.

At the moment, you would only see rate of percentage decrease because mA values are not available through any means I've researched up to this point. Also, it would have to get thrown on a background thread - which makes the problem two-fold.
on top of the problems, a percentage decrease wouldn't be very accurate for several reasons.
I'll keep looking around however!

So far so good. I am honestly still teaching myself how phone 7 does it's coding being a amateur coder, but only thing I can guess is something in common with the original battery app and those to programs. I can duplicate it all day long with that one. With yours I had it happen one time. I opened the battery app. Then attempted to load either Weather channel or TouchXperience and the latter two apps would load then immediately shut down. I have yet to have it happen again with yours so good work!

This could be cool, but I do like just the quick glance. Something I would like maybe is the ability to toggle an actual image with the percentage, but that's really just for visual sake. As it stands your app does what it's supposed to do and I like that.
Hi guys.
I always feel that my display eats the most of my battery..I know what do you expect from S.AMOLED Plus displays..Gorgeous i know but eats your battery..Anyway great app on the market that i have started to use and it works wonders for me and would like to spread the word, if you don't already know about about this app..
Link is this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.haxor&hl=en
Apologies if you already have it, but i just thought if there are more people like myself who want to save a bit of juice on your battery this is a great app to use specially if your brightness is abit to much as well.
Cheers
very good for bedtime reading too and discreet enough not to annoy the missus. This is one of the first apps I install on every Rom change.

tell me about it..hows pat? get it.. i know lame joke.
man this has boosted my battery life by 20%. so i saw people sharing apps that they recommend so i thought why not i do the same..if it helps others why not
thanks for posting
I liked it but found out that if set too low (as it is very efficient) it can be tricky to find the icon or anything else for that matter so eventually I stopped using it

You always get the icon on the top left hand corner. if you bring down the drop down menu you could access the app from there.

Hi, HTC Sense 4.0 multitask is very bad, i can't use 3 apps in the background at the same time, first i thing it's ICS problem but when i compare it with Galaxy S 3 i find that HTC really need to fix there multitask issue.
Checkout this video i create it:
here's the video link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Sw0ALWKCZ8 i don't know how to embed the video here ><"
Any one here can fix it ?
Is already a well known issue. Somehow people begin accepting it as a feature rather than issue.

Are there any known ways to tweak this behaviour or work around it? I'm finding it very annoying, as I'm using something like PVStar+ to play YouTube in the background (for audio), and suddenly it stops working because the One X has decided to kill it mid song or whatever.
When it starts killing active audio stream, I begin to have problems :-(

Tanks i'll try it now & report back
Thanks waz, will try that when I get home
Out of interest, does adjusting these values have any negative impact, or will the system still free up as and when required?
Thanks guys, my phone now work as i want it
now it's work much better

The only negatives was smaller benchmark scores, nothing else seemed slow with the multitasking enhacements.
HTC really know how to limit us, s-on crap, this multitasking lack and camera locked to 2MB pics. Fixed 2/3, multitasking and photos just under 8MB for colourful , detailed scenes. And we can install custom roms with a little inconvienence. Almlst 3/3 HTC your practices suck.
I noticed a toggle in the toggles menu called download booster. It enables both the wifi radio and the LTE radio to work together to gain additional speed when downloading files over 30mb. It's pretty slick.
Check it out if you haven't
Yep, I'm using it from day one and it's pretty slick!

I think you just pull down the notification bar and you'll see in the notification shade the wifi/4G bars signifying the speed its pulling from each source to download the item.

OIC. Thank you.
curious
Does anyone know if there is a torrent client that works with this feature? I've tried searching for one with no luck... maybe there is one that emulates this feature
When it kicks in, there will be a notification on screen that tells you its working.
Then during the transfer there will be a notification in the drop down menu..
It seems like it only works during certain types of transfers.. like web downloads and such. It doesnt kick in during an ookla speed test.

It only works for files over 30 mb. then you'll see a different icon show up in your status bar. Also if you pull down your notifications , you will see the wifi and LTE speeds in a bar graph kinda thing

Was wondering this myself. We would need to know how it's determining the file size. I bet once we get root, that's one of the first things that get changed , always on DL booster lol

Yeah I tried it with tTorrent pro and it wouldn't work...and that would be the only time I would ever need the booster..so really its useless to me

I have dropbox sync on and I upload a lot of videos to youtube, for those situations it's great. But ya, torrent would be nice. It's simply a matter of convincing the phone that whatever is being downloaded is larger than 30mb.
Hi guys. Just like I wrote in the tittle. Anyone knows the simple solution because it takes too much space.
anyone? I saw screenshoots without it so there has to be a solution

I think there is no such thing as notification page. I assume it stands for "gsm' network.
