hi,
first sorry for my english...:crying:
i'm trying to make a clock widget. under the clock i want do see the battery charging with a small progress bar.
i added a series type, but it always start with "10%" and ends with "90%" (or with my actual percent)
i'd like to see the start with "0" and the end with "100"
any chance to get it work?
thank you

Judging by my searches, this cannot be done ...
I can make the clock in the titlebar appear on all programs.
I can replace the clock in the titlebar with the battery icon.
So why am I unable to put the battery icon in the titlebar of all programs?
Or can I?
As there is no reply yet, perhaps I can suggest a different approach?
I use the Freeware app Batti version 2.4. You can Google it. This puts a thin row of pixels across the top of the title bar. One of the options is to make it "always on top" and this will ensure that it is visible even when an app takes over the full screen. It is a very small program 164kB which runs at startup. You can even set how many pixels high is the strip that shows battery status, and change its colours while on battery and charging states. Of course it takes up no space on the title bar itself (apart from say 3 pixels vertically) and therefore you can display clocks etc as well. Thoroughly recommended.
because the X1 default just display either time state or battery state...
Not sure how to do it specifically, but some ROMs, with newer menus at the bottom of the screen, will have both battery and time in the status bar.
Displaying clock and batrey bar
just hide the clock option so the batrey bar will be displayed, and in today screen seting you have to put the date so the clock will be displayed also on your screen good luck
you can install SPB pocket plus, go to settings, enable the Battery indicator as an icon, then go to time and select to always display clock on top.
that will give you both batt and time display on top row.
Search for ArielBattery. Found it yesterday and does the job perfect! Sry for my English
I can't make out the icons at the very top of my screen - e.g. messages, battery life, BT... (yes, I'm probably older than many of you)
I would either like to make that area large, turn up the brightness or ideally -
I'd like the number of new emails, text messages and voicemails to show up on the icons that are at the bottom of my screen like they did on my EVO3d and ET4G - not sure if that is a skin or mod or what but it was very helpful.
Any one of these solutions for this GN newbie would be most appreciated.

Well then here's the perfect mod for you! Old Geezer
Thanks - that is very close to what I'm looking for - it concentrates on making the ones on the right more noticeable.
The problem is I need the ones on the left more noticeable. E.g. I have a battery status icon that shows me the percent of battery life remaining instead of the stock one that has bar.
It appears that items up there have a transparency thing going on - I'd like to turn that off so the images are brighter/crisper.
The items on the right are easy enough to read -e.g. how many bars I'm getting as they are a more noticeable blue.
So I guess what I'd really like is to remove the transparency if that is what is going on up there and to get my icons back on the main part of the screen that show the number of unread messages, missed calls, new email messages - not sure if that was an HTC and Samsung thing or a feature in the older version of Android but I miss it.
That stupid overlay/transparency pissed me off. But if you can decompile and do a simple xml edit and recompile it can be gone.
SystemUI.apk\res\values\dimens.xml (find line below)
<item type="dimen" name="status_bar_icon_drawing_alpha">100.0%</item>
the default setting is like 54.9999%. 100% = "0" overlay and bright icons now.
good day.

Clearly your Jou Jou is much stronger than mine - could tell me exactly how to do this or would that be too complicated to explain?
I used to have my NST rooted with 1.1.2 FW and I managed to change the battery stock images with Rom Toolbox Pro.
Now, I'm on 1.2.1 (also rooted) but if I try to do the same my NST ends up messed up and I'm forced to do a restore.
So how can I put the battery percentage on a 1.2.1 rooted NST?
Thanks.
There are quite a number of changes between 1.1 and 1.2
The problem with using an Insta-Wonder-Auto-Tool is that you don't know what it's doing.
When it doesn't work, you are a few steps behind than if you were doing something manually
Sorry, I haven't looked into changing the battery status drawables.
My laundry list of things to do on the Nook doesn't go that far.
I know ReLaunch will display exact percentages while on that screen. If you don't need exact percentages but would like a more accurate estimate than the limited number of states the icon in the status bar shows T.E.A.M Battery Bar (at least. there are likely others that do a similar thing) will put a persistent 1 px tall bar across the top or bottom of the screen, that's what I use and it's been good enough for my needs at least. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pvy.batterybar&hl=en
I guess it's something...
Morning all.
I am trying to make a fancy battery bar widget using 4 progress bars each curved 90 degrees and rotated to make a full circle, and each individual bar only showing a 25% range of the battery level, so bar 1 is 0-24%, bar 2 is 25-49 % etc.
What I'm trying to do now is split the bars into sections depending on the battery level, so when the battery is below 75% but above 50, I want the 3rd section to split into 5 chunks but have the first two bars stay solid... if you get what I mean.
But I've searched and tried to find the Advanced Parameter for progress bar chunks/splits and I cannot find it. The text on the advanced parameter button in Zooper says "...control almost any aspect of this module...", and I'm not bashing, but is this one option not available or have I missed the appropriate keyword from my XDA/Google searches?
Thanks
Wrong thread
@Mokum020
Thanks for the tip I think that's the way to go.
I'll tell you what as well, trying to get the segments lined up with eachother is a PITA!

How about making two progress bars for each section, one solid and one in chunks and show/hide them with the offset parameter at a certain % level:
Solid
Code:
[ox]$#BLEVN#>=75?1000$[/ox]
Chunks
Code:
[ox]$#BLEVN#<75?1000$[/ox]

I thought this was an interesting idea so I built my own version of it, attached. Would like to see the OP's as well if willing to share.
As the OP mentioned getting the segments to line up to the exact pixel/millimeter is easier said than done, but sometimes close enough looks...close enough lol.
