this is the best one available, ive been using this since last year and it's never failed me.
I want the battery icon itself to be replaced by a percentage icon or something , not a separate icon ...
How is that possible .?

I don't think it is unless you flash a theme. I used to use jkays theme a lot. You can find the thread in the themes section.
Hey, you said non-rooted stock rom. So I gave the only available possibility; using an app that shows an extra icon.
If you want to replace icons, you'll need root and flash a theme!

Hi,
I am looking to get my battery percentage showing in the status bar, instead of the normal battery icon. I do not want to use a widget for this, because you can only see that on the home screen - the status bar is viewable even when you are in an app. Typically this involves editing framework-res.apk which is possible now that we have root. If someone can help me out with this I would give them many thanks!

Hello!
I have just rooted my phone with CyanogenMod 9 and I have Apex Pro Launcher on it. I really want to change the battery icon and put the percent in battery next to the icon on the notification bar. Like this at the top: http://i.minus.com/jmYkiylPBLHA7.png
Could anyone tell me how I change that battery icon and put the battery percent next to it?
Thanks in advance!
A couple of different ways I have changed the battery icons on my S2 are:
1. Install Jkays Framework. Not only is this great for customising status bar but you can do LOTS of other things too. I wouldn't use my phone without it!
2.Install Rom Toolbox Pro it's AMAZING and has so many tools in it, you can change boot animations, icons, run scripts, make tweaks and that is only the tip of the iceberg. It's a great app and well worth buying if you have a rooted phone

I have downloaded Rom Toolbox Pro, and looked through icon battery changer on there. But can't find anyone that have the battery in percent next to the icon?
Here is my modded SystemUI. This one is stock and only for Jelly Bean. No 15 toggles, or different colored icons, just transparent status bar and notifications, center clock, no battery icon for those of us who like to have the percentage instead (settings ->display ->show battery percentage)
Please read everything as the firmware you use is very important!!! Installation of the wrong file will cause strange things to happen on your phone, thanks to Samsung's changes in the framework-res.
These first ones are for any older firmware up to and including XXLQB only!!!
Installation of these on any firmware that came after the Russian XXLQB will cause anomalies in your phone like selecting default telling you headphones or phone instead of Always and One Time.
Transparent Mod Download
Stock Mod Download
Alt Toggle order Transparent download
Alt Toggle order Black download
Transparent and Blue Toggles Download
Black with Blue Toggles Download
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The following files are for the newer firmwares starting with the Indian DDULP8 and up to and including XXLQG. Installation of these on older firmwares cause the default program selection to read S Pen has been Detached and Go To Settings to show up instead of Always and One Time.
Transparent Mod Download for Newer Firmware
Stock Mod Download for Newer Firmware
Alt Toggle order Transparent download for Newer Firmware
Alt Toggle order Black download for Newer Firmware

I am sorry for taking so long to get this done, but I hope this helps correct things for everyone. If you find anything strange after you have made sure you installed the right file, let me know. But make sure you have done it right before posting anything please. I might get cranky if you didn't take time to make sure you did things right (not likely tho lol)

Screenshots below show the way they look, hopefully the descriptions are self explanatory.
Thanks to shut_down for helping me with the decompiling and compiling of apk's and the ripple effect on the lockscreen. Also big thanks to joehanh88 for invaluable assistance with the coding of the systemui and xml's and stuff.
Install with CWM or TWRP. Make sure to backup your SystemUI.apk and Framework-res.apk in case you want to go back. These are deodexed files. If you are still odexed, just rename SystemUI.odex to SystemUI.odex.bkup. Should work for you
Hope you like it... was fun (most the time lol)
If you feel it is worthwhile to use in your rom or other mod, just give me credit please and link to this...
Should you want slight variations in these, I am sorry but I don't take requests. If you want them, do some searching and find the tutorials on how to do that yourself. A good place to start is HOW TO THEME SystemUI.apk for TOTALLY newbie! by joehanh88.
And as always, I am not responsible for anything that happens if your phone breaks, blows up, or just gets an attitude.. do this at your own risk.
Can you make a black version and with normal size clock and percentage numbers? This is the best statusbar but not everybody likes transparent look

Great look of bar but is it suitable for JellyMOD? Will my toogles be replaced by toggles from the screen?

It's sad The only problem is that 3G toogle is to far. Does Samsung really think that I use Bluetooth much often?
op updated with stock version.
Thanks man best statusbar!!!
Re: [JB] Oh Boy, Another modded SystemUI LOL
Minor update coming tomorrow. Nothing special just a little more logic..
Sent from my GT-I9070 using xda app-developers app
Op updated, with more logical order to the toggles
Op updated again, minor change, blue toggles in notifications for you
Made a couple of changes to the transparent mods. Changed the color of the clock and battery percentage to a very light gray so they will show up against a white background. Also changed the notifications to show up better in bright conditions. Download links updated. Try them and let me know what you think.
Re: [JB] Oh Boy, Another modded SystemUI LOL (updated now with stock and blue Toggles
In one of my friend's s3(4.2.2) I observed that the notification bar wasn't scrollable instead of that he had a button on the right top to show all toggles ..
Can you do it for our s advance....
If you didn't get the description the I'll upload a screen shot of the notification pull down ...
By the way it's recommended to keep the landscape mode untouched...

Yes I have seen that before too, am looking for a tutorial and source files for it, if I can find that will see what I can do... no promises tho hehe
Using of alt toggles is great But in my opinion centre clock is not looking the best with many notifications.
As for me, the best variant of statusbar would be your alt toggles with black background, black bar but with clock at right (as usual) and with battery image which is white, not green. And white toogles after activating! Could be great if you can do it but I don't know if it's possible and if you have a wish and time.

Hey everyone!
Can anyone help me remove this battery icon in the status bar/notification header? (See attached image) it's pointless being there if you using gravity box battery icons instead.
That one you can't really get rid of. The best you can do is go into settings - personalization - status bar icons, and untick the battery. This will remove stock battery icon when notification drawer IS not pulled down so you can only see GravityBox icon.
Hope that helps

Same here.
Anyone please help.
I m using Flat Style Bar Indicator module, it allows to change the icon for battery and the changed icon appear in the expanded panel. May be u can try that.
U can see the ss below
hi guys. i tried it with Gravitybox but 5 second after it remove, it appears again. what should i do? any app or systemui modifimodification ?
Settings>Battery>Scroll down too "Percentage on status bar" move slide to disable
i think you don't have eyes to read the title
U Want to remove %. Thats the way u do it.
but.. nice insult.
r u kidding? it remove battery percentage not percent symbol
Ok my bad kid.
What version of Android are you running and do you have/ do you want to have Xposed installed?
official 6.0.1. xposed v80 by wanam is installed
That's a good start then chap. I'm sure there's a module called flat bar icons, or something like that, that allows you to change all the icons on the notification bar, I used to have it but never delved to deep into it. I think that allows you to lose the percentage sign.
yes flat style bar indicator is a good app tnx.
No worries man, hope it solves your dilema
this app is great. but still there is one thing that annoying me. stock statusbar icons' color automatically change from white to black when statusbar become white, but flat style don't have this feature.
so i'm looking for solution. also i'm thinking about editing systemui to remove percent sign and adding other feature to statusbar. Do you know any post or threat to helps me about it?
