Accurate battery for new leak or R3 - Vibrant Themes and Apps

Very newbie question I know....
Can anyone point me to the process for manually integrating battery mods into the framework.apk as for the above listed builds current morphs do not work. The framework file has apparently changed. I know where to copy the actual icon/image files but am not sure what other files need to be moved/copied. Also in this instance would I need to also sign the resulting framework.apk?

anyone? .....

Eugene has to make a version of his rom with the batt mod... You can't decompile and recompile a themed framework....

I'm also looking for a accurate battery for the new leaked software, this inaccurate icon is driving me crazy.

I am running this one (last one in list) with Eugene's Hybrid R3 ROM right now, flashed the file through ROM Manager and it works perfect:

I also downloaded "Battery Life" from the Market cause you can set it up to show battery temp also.

+1 for the accurate battery mod for new leaked vibrant firmware...
It's one of the most useful mods in my opinion..

I just got this working, but it is part of an "all in one" mod
I pulled the framework-res.apk and made it flashable with Clockwork
and is attached to this post
the images in this mod are from the Stock Battery mod found in the below thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=758797

I get a fc when I flashed the stock accurate battery mod on the leaked firmware, something like android.media and then android.phone. I cleared the cache, I also have the battstatt widget running not sure if that has anything to do with it or not

Unless I'm mistaken, those battery images were from one of my original mods, here:

I'm glad you like it, and got your own version working for the new JI2 firmware, but I spent several days tweaking all those stupid png images to be just right, and people that don't give credit are just another reason why I'll probably never release anything again.
Sigh, such a wonderful community, =(

I just flashed this one and got multiple FC's, cant even get to home screen.

yes, they are your images I originaly had a longer post with a link to your thread
but I edited it because the battery mod was part of a larger package of mods,
and one of the mods (mobileAP) is broken on the leaked firmware.

Battery-mod themes with Axura

Is anyone else having trouble applying battery-mod themes to their Axura Roms? I realize that Master has an awkward setup because the original framework has a few extra .pngs thrown in (stat_sys_battery_0b, stat_sys_battery_charge_anim6b, stat_sys_battery_charge_anim10b, etc). I edited those as well, so my batteyrmod morph setup mirrors the original framework.
however, when my phone is charging, it does not display the full sequence of charging .pngs. It seems to only display like the first 5 images and then starts over, as opposed to cycling through all 105.
anyone else?
I'm having a similar problem with the Odometer Battery mod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=926769 ) The charging sequence only goes to +/- 30%.
I'm on TW Bionix-v though

Well the issue most likely is that while the xmls are most likely working fine, because the compiled framework never had most of these images upon being compiled, they're not in the resources and therefore won't be called upon.
There's really no way around it, it would have to be compiled with the images inside. Upload your framework and I'll pack it up for ya.

custom battery and bar patches for notification bar?

I'm running the DB Gingermix and loving it, but I would like to find some custom battery icons and reception bar icons to put into my notification bar. I would imagine its like flashing any zip file from recovery? download the zip file, put into SD root, then flash from recovery and reboot?
I'd like to second this request. I'm running Gingeritis 1.0 FINAL and I'm looking to add a circle battery indicator with percentage in the middle. I tried to install the one from Das BAMF. It did change the icon properly, but also caused battery charging and longevity problems. When I restored, these resolved.
Any help for this?
I'm waiting for this as well.

Android robot battery mod icon

Hey everybody! I made this android robot battery mod icon using uot with the gladiatrix 3 b2 framework and gingerblur 4.5. so only flash this if you are on gladiatrix3 b2 or gingerblur 4.5 !!
I have tested these different uot battery icons on my phone which is an ATT atrix with 1.83 firmware numerous times and they work perfect if done the correct way!!This will not make your phone do 1% percent battery increases/decreases it just will give you a new battery icon! Thats it! If you want the 1% mod look for it in the apps and themes thread here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1105272&highlight=battery+mod This is to be flashed through Tenfars CWM only!! If you guys want more? I will make more through UOT as there are many different kinds besides the robot.
Heres the link for the mod for gladiatrix3 b2!! http://www.mediafire.com/?jkoodi47o3ui56u
Link for those on gingerblur 4.5 http://www.mediafire.com/?9u2gl9n9bmsyl4h
Note: I am not responsible for any kind of damage or data loss from flashing this!! flash at your own risk!!! Always backup before flashing anything as well!! Enjoy!
Heres a pic!!!

I wish! I just made a thread about that myself! I dont actually make these! They're from a site called UOT but alot of people were having problems with installing these. So I fixed it all up so you can just flash it like normal through tenfars CWM and you're done no work involved with matching up frameworks and fixing errors and things of that nature! These are cool but as I said alot of people ended up soft bricking and such when attempting to do it on their own. So I wanted to make it as easy as possible for everyone to have these batt mods! Thats all! If anybody out there can do a skull batt mod I'd greatly appreciate it!
I may do the dogs paw one next it kinda caught my interest!

[ROM] Streakin' 354v1.1 **Update 9/16**

I am constantly playing with and 'tweakin' my Streak and have put together what I think is a good, lite, fast, and stable rom. I made this for my own use and decided to share it with the rest of you.
I started with 354 then removed all apps that could be downloaded from the market. I also removed alot of stuff that I didn't think was necessary (such as all the verification*.apk's, don't even know what they are). There are only 17 apps in the drawer on a fresh install! I added DJ Steve's kernel and some memory tweaks from using the HTC Kitchen. VTL Launcher ADW is the included launcher as well as Swype for the keyboard. There are also some customization provided by UOT Kitchen as well as a modified Settings.apk that I got from somewhere on here. I'd love to thank whoever made it, but I have lost track so if it's your's---thank you!
I'm getting Quadrant scores in the 1400's and battery life seems pretty decent. I gave up on Quadrant scores. My best guess would be low 800's for this version. I have found through trial and error that higher Quadrant scores mean less stability, and honestly I can't tell the difference in real world performance between an 800 QS and a 1400 QS. I can't tell you exact battery life because I haven't hardly put this thing down since I installed this.
I am not an expert by no means and have only gotten these results from tinkering and trial and error. I think this is good, but am open to suggestions for improving it.
I started off by installing stock 354 using stock recovery, then installed this using Streakmod recovery and did a Factory Reset (Dell's, not Streakmod's). I have had no issues so far.
I have seen this posted before and liked it so I'm going to use it here: If you find a bug, you get to keep it. If this breaks your Streak, you get to keep the pieces. Obviously installing a custom rom breaks your warranty, and I am not responsible for whatever happens if you install mine.
Thanks to everyone whose ideas I stole/used/borrowed/whatever. Without the true experts on this board, I wouldn't have had anything to tinker with.
What works: Everything I can think of
What doesn't work: Waiting for you to tell me. The time in the status bar is black and the status bar is blackish...makes it hard to see. I don't know why and haven't yet figured out how to fix this. If someone has a link to a good tutorial and I can make it work, I'll be happy to resolve it!
So without further ado, I present Streakin' 354v1 354 v1.1:
http://www.multiupload.com/1MVM3O34AN v1.1 *newest*
http://www.multiupload.com/BHI4Y4XD69 I'm leaving this link for those that prefer v1.
I do intend on maintaining this rom and tweakin' it more based on recommendation, more stuff that I learn, etc. I do have a full time job, so even though I want to answer questions immediately, it's not always practical. If it takes me a while to respond, I apologize in advance.
Edit 09/24/11 - If you prefer landscape mode, simply flash the attached file below in recovery. Be sure to wipe cache and dalvik-flash after flashing. After doing this it took 5-6 minutes for my phone to boot, but it did....eventually. You may want to backup first! I also added a portrait mode file in case you decide you don't like landscape after all. Enjoy.
Edit 09/25/11 - It was pointed out to me that this ROM does not have a init.d folder. I forgot to add it, although the support to run scripts in init.d is there. Until the next version comes out, using Root Explorer, or similar, create a folder named init.d in /system/etc/ and set the permissions to rwx,r_x,r_x. That should be all you need. Thanks.

I didn't like VTL Launcher either, until I went into the settings and turned the left and right dockbars off. Now it's not much different than ADW and rightfully so, since it's based off of it.

Just an observation here. You might want to contemplate recreating this ROM using 360 as a base instead of 354 due to the more complete language support in the former compared to the latter.

I had contemplated using that rom as my base, but noticed everyone had better battery life with 354. 360 was listed as being an "update" 351, which gave me horrible battery life. If someone can tell me different as far as battery, I don't think it would be difficult to redo this based on one of the others (360 or maybe 364?)
Grateful your work!
Grateful your work! I am pleased that contains the settings for Japanese.
Parts of the screen is also very beautiful!
I will continue to use this ROM for a while.

OK, I removed DJ Steve's kernel and replaced some files that were changed to accomodate it. My quadrant scores are now in the 800's and I'll report back with the 'feel' of the device and stability over the next day or so. I love seeing high scores, however must admit I've never really noticed a difference in day to day use with the higher scores. I will take stability over high benchmark scores, but will take noticeable speed increase over a little stability if that makes sense.

AOKP Port in Progress

See my thread in the Dev section for downloads and Instructions: [ROM][AOKP][PORT] AOKP for the DX2 and the MX2 [8/4/12]
I have been working on an AOKP port for the Droid X2 and the Milestone X2. It's a port of the milestone 6 AOKP build available for the Atrix 4G (made by Th3Bill), using DzK's CM9 Alpha 5 as a base. Thus far everything seems to be running smoothly. I got it to boot after probably a good half hour of playing with the resolution in an AOKP animation I found over on RootzWiki.
I ran into some problems with the phone app refusing to show up, but eventually googled it and found that it was the modded contacts apk doing it. It still has a few things I should probably iron out such as some minor graphical glitches on first boot, and the section in settings for the 4G data crashing the settings app. In my probably fifteen hours of testing this out on my MX2 I've had one random reboot, everything else seems to be about where CM9 Alpha 5 is in terms of stability.
Anyway my point in posting this is: is there anything anyone would want me to add? Like a cool wallpaper, a cool theme, or even some cool mods. For example, I personally like the soft keys with the hard keys remapped to music controls that can be found over in the dev section. That specific mod should be left out, but is there anything you've seen somewhere that's for the DX2 or the MX2 or even a universal mod that you guys think would be nifty to have preinstalled? I've seen that there's at least a nearly fully functional version of Google Now for ICS, would anyone want that added in?
Please note that I take no credit for anything used in this project. All I'm doing is combining files to make something I think will be cool. If in the future you feel the urge to praise someone, praise DzK, Th3Bill, or any of the other developers I may or may not use stuff from.
awesome, i will be watching to see how this goes. Good Luck.
I know of a feature that you could investigate. Having 1% battery increments on the battery indicator.

I'll see what I can do. Wasn't there something like that for blur over in the dev forum? Might have to take a look at that.
hmm...it might already be there, just need to wait for my battery percentage to drop to confirm.
Edit: Or maybe not, just played music full blast through an unpowered speaker for a good 10 minutes, didn't drop one percent. So either I'm getting incredible battery life or it's still at 10% increments...well back to work.

i believe either in the systemui.apk or framework-res.apk youll hafta set it up to show battery increments of 1%, but i couldnt tell you if its within either of those or another apk. youll hafta google it.
Wait what is this about 4G data? The DX2 doesn't have 4G because it doesn't have the hardware for 4G.
The atrix has 4G. I think he is talking about a problem with the port because of that.
Sent from my MB870 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, the Atrix has 4G and the settings for it show up here but do not work because we do not have 4G.
In the way of the 1% battery I think I got it (at least while not charging), but I can't check yet because I tried to just replace framework-res.apk and it didn't like it when I renamed the old one before copying over the new one...so sbf'ing now and will check after I flash my updated zip.
Okay, I got 1% battery working, as long as it's left on the default battery icon option in settings.

You do need to flash the ICS GApps.
Oh and forgot to mention you should wipe /data, /cache, and /system and dalvik-cache prior to flashing, and wipe dalvik and fix permissions after the flash as well. I'm not sure if those last two are necessary but I always do it out of habit from my old phone and I'm not sure if that was affecting the generally good results I was having.
Thanks, I usually wipe the big three anyways. What does fix permissions do? It won't hurt anything if I do it, even though I might not need to?

Fix permissions shouldn't hurt anything. If you running some special mod that requires special permissions in /system than it can mess with that mod but other than that I have never heard of it causing problems.
(Here you go, get one more post in) What are the advantages of AOKP opposed to say CM9 or even MIUI?
Edit: and if this is even semi stable and working shouldn't it be moved on over to And Dev section?

AOKP is actually very similar to CM9, based on it in fact, the major difference there is that AOKP has a few more customization options in it. It has a whole section in settings called "ROM Control" through which you can change a whole slew of things. Most of those things are related to the interface but there are a couple of sections with some cool performance tweaks, like you can set custom values for the sd card speed tweak, you can have it zip-align unaligned apk's at boot, fix permissions at boot and other things. AOKP also has some other performance tweaks set up that are integrated into the system.
MIUI I haven't actually used on this phone, or ever on ICS, but as I understand it MIUI is more about looks and being able to theme it than it is about performance. AOKP and CM9 are more centered around providing great performance with an interface that is simple and clean. MIUI is much more flashy. It's also much easier to theme MIUI than it is to theme CM9 or AOKP. Or so I've heard I've never actually tried theming it.
The only reason I didn't put this in the Dev forum was because it required 10 posts to put up a new thread in there. Actually, I think this post gives me that 10 posts. Should I go ahead and put a thread up in there with instructions, links and all that?
Edit: Meant to ask another question, has anyone tried my DX2 version, I only have an MX2 and have only tested that. Would like to know if the DX2 version works.
Very in depth answer, thank you. But yes, I would move it over to dev and let some more people. Im away this weekend but if no x2 users have tried this by mon or tue ill give it a go.
Edit:Nope I thought about it and I don't know about posting again over in dev, they might get on you for double posting. I'd contact a mod and ask them to move it for you and rename it. Just my opinion.
