I'm ooking for a Stock 2.3.4 GB systemui.apk and framework-res.apk I was playing around with my status bar batt icons and somehow got several other batt icons loaded with my factory ones. Now the staus bar shows a couple different batt icons at different charge %'s. Example: factory GB icon at 100%, round ICS Style at 70%, etc. etc. Can anyone help?
I'm going to ask the dumb question; did you back-up your system before this? If not, can you use an older back-up or maybe find a dump of all the apks
for which phone? Maybe I could help!!
... You woke a dead thread for that? The DX2 is the phone here unless stated otherwise....
from my X2 roaming the north
Someone definitely did not look at the date.
If a thread hasn't been touched for two weeks, leave it alone.

Currently running Nero v3, want to know:
A) how to return text messaging thread layout back to original JI6 stock (orange and blue)
and
B) where I can find the battery reconditioning software or information on extending the battery life.
Nero v3 is THE best ROM hands down, lightning fast!!

A) you can go into the stock ROM's files and take the messaging.apk and put it into the rom you have right now, be sure to make a backup of the one you have just in case. As for me, i'm using GOSMS, it looks great, has a popup thing etc.
B) i'm looking for the same info, i heard you have to drain the battery down to 0% then 100% then erase battery data from recovery, but others told me that draining lithium batteries shortens their lifespan and makes it even more difficult for us. Theres a easier method that worked wonders for me on my previous rom; I charged till it said 100%, then shut down, and plug in usb, so it starts charging again, then wait until it beeps or says 100% again, then reboot, and charge again, till it goes to 100% it doubled my battery, but idk how at all.
Thanks, I backed up everything through TB, so I should have the original file, just didn't know what the file name was.
Yea, I also read something like that in one of the threads, I forget which one it is. I also read somewhere about a flashable mod but also forget where that is because I was a mere newbie some 36 hours ago and none of this made sense, getting the hang of it though, very addictive, lol.
If I run across anything, I'll post the link in here

Titanium backup might not actually back that up, but theres a easier way, you go to SYSTEM/APP using a file system (root explorer, astro) and copy the messaging.apk from there to your sd or something, but im sure TB did it too.
The Flashable Mod is already included in most of the newest and latest ROMS these days, let me see if i can find if nero has it.
Nope, i THINK it has it, but i'm not sure since the original thread states nothing about a battery mod or something.
If you find a link to the battery mod, link me i'll check it out.
and yeah lol, flashing can get addicitive, so much that you accidentally hard brick your vibrant 2 times >.> (my own story lol)
Battery life improves with time, its like the battery gets used to your behavior on the new rom.
Idk why you would ask but Nero is currently one of the best roms, and best known for its battery life as well with the themes and such...
for me... Axura is just....... like 32 hours with moderate/heavy use at random times. Heavy being playing Asphalt 5 HD and Dungeon Defenders lol.
If any more questions just ask i have nothing else to do, school starts again tomorrow, so tensed up >.<.
Yea I found MMS.apk in that directory on my internal drive, don't know if that's the one that came stock or if it's for nero 3. Guess I'll just install it and hope for the best, lol
Where do you get GOSMS from? is that an app in market? tried googling it and couldn't find it. Thanks!
Battery reconditioning;
1.charge battery full
2.with charger still plugged in boot into recovery and wipe battery stats (it's under advanced)
3. unplug and fully drain.
4.fully charge and enjoy.
I can get more than 24 hours of good use on a charge.

Hi there,
is there a way of getting the percentage of the battery-power in the status bar? My xperia mini is rooted, is it possible without flashing a whole (modded) firmware? I would be very happy If somebody could explain me how/ show me the necessary files, or give me some hint ...
thx,
Thorsten
Use Battery Indicator App from the Market!
Quicker Free
there are little adv space in the bottom, but it allows you to have almost all needed switchers (including spot light from led) .
Thanks a lot!
But what I am looking for is that I can only cat the percentage next to the original Battery symbol. Like it is in Cyanogenmod ...
Any suggestions?
Thorsten
if you have CWM then you can use Kitchen and change anything like showing battery Percentage.
Guide for using UOT Kitchen is Here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1349048
Yeah, this modding tool rocks!
I managed it without clockwork recovery, just by exchanging the framework-res.apk file on the phone with the one created by UOTK. I uploaded the new package file via adb. If anybody is interested in details, wants to have some support you are kindly invited to ask.
Now I have exactly what I want standard rom with the battery-icon with percentage, the rest is unchanged. Awesome!
Thanks a lot!
Thorsten
good to hear it i didn't use it without CWM though

should i use battery caliberation from market
It's supposed to be like that.
The green LED simply means your phone is at least 90% charged.
i thought i just check the thread before i fix it via pc companion.looks like they have changed many things compared to old mini pro.but this is unusual.
o well thanks for posting or else it would of took me a few hours setting my phone up.
Thorsten,
Could you post the framework-res.apk that you made? I also want the % in the notification bar but if you already made one in kitchen no need for me to reinvent the wheel

By the way is framework-res.apk device specific? I'm on am xperia ray so I suppose yours might not work for me if you are on a different xperia...

Title says it all. I hate the battery bar. I wish I knew how to do it myself.
I contacted the guy who posted this theme http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1366170&highlight=ics+zip the ics.zip
I wouldn't mind trying to port it over myself, I've actually been trying to figure out how the last few hours.. but I would love that theme. Mainly for the battery icon. But also for a little more ICS look.
Working on a stock-looking HTC Style battery with percentage right now. Was thinking this today when I looked at my phone and said to myself.. "I wonder where my battery is really at?"
Getting ready to install it now. Once I finish testing, if all goes well, I'll post it in a few minutes.

I was gonna contact the guy who made the caprombeta rom, he had battery % showing in his.. since he had his rom out so quick I imagine he must have had a quick and dirty method he could share.
I've seen a lot of people griping about the lack of an ICS look so I was considering using this thread that has a tool to port themes with the ICS.zip attached to that link I posted earlier.. it is supposed to put it into any rom(and looking at the batch file it doesn't need a whole rom, just what needs to be flashed). I would probably have it done already but I'm on my mac, and too lazy to sit at the desktop
Well here's mine. Nothing changed over stock theme except I added the percentage to the battery icon.
Also has smooth charging animations instead of the standard choppy ones and shows the current percentage between animation cycles while charging.
Used the UOT Kitchen to make it but replaced the battery images with my own. Hope you guys like it.
Just install in recovery.
Smexy background by the way

Attached. Just extract it from the rar. When you upload a pic as an attachment, it compresses it to a different resolution.

It's not a feature directly implemented into the UOT Kitchen.
After the kitchen is done and you download your zip, extract the framework-res.apk from the zip.
Extract the "res" folder from the framework-res.apk and look for the directory "drawable-hdpi". In there you will find 206 images related to the battery. I replaced them all with images that matched HTC's stock battery but including percentage.
After you replace all the images to look how you want, just replace the res folder inside framework-res.apk and replace the one in the zip.

I got a critical error, all I needed was framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and com.htc.resources.apk right? So I'm wondering if we don't have a MTD update binary(I didn't think we have emmc) or if I remember right that I am supposed to recompile or sign the apk or something..
Sigh, I had it all done too
Works great.
Was hoping to use this one -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620376
But couldn't because I'm running this theme -
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620331
And the update file for it still included all the other (unaltered) images which resulted in the file overwriting all the altered images from the theme lol.
Thankfully this one was put together sans all the unaltered images so it works with the theme just fine. Thanks =)

That's really strange because I haven't noticed that problem. After I first installed ARHD, I noticed my battery percent in the status bar would be 2% high from the battery percent displayed in the unlock screen while unlocking.
After about 2 charge cycles and wiping the battery stats once that normalized and now I have excellent battery life and it's extremely accurate.

Thanks for that! Super handy, especially since you can see the %age from the lock screen (why wouldn't google/htc build that in??).
One note though - using it today and it reported 9% remaining within the battery icon, but 7% through other means. Not a huge deal, but thought I'd let you know.
Massiv.
I'm running the DarkFire ROM for the Photon 4G of course. Is there a zip I can flash to get 1% increments instead of 10? I'm on android 2.3.4.
I have wondered the same thing with factory rom... i updated to 2.3.5 though... dont wanna void warranty on my electrify(re badged mopho)... I find it annoying my go launcher says like 70 or so and the stock battery indiciator is 90... I like placement of stock battery indicator and wish it went in 1% increments too... If you find anything on this please post back.
It shows 10 % steps everyehere i dont care abou status bar icon or something about->status offline charging everywhere its a pain in the ass i dont know why i did a clean install with rsd lite and still it started after a bootmenu install but i had clean installs after that its not happening with custom roms like fts beta but i guess something wrong with my battrey statistic system thats why my razr lasts for only hour cheers!

On stock rom I got 1% increment working with Battery Indicator Pro from the market...
*Now shows 1% increments even on most Motorola devices (option needs to be enabled on devices that default to 10% increments)*
It's in the options>Other settings>One-percent hack
Would that work for you?
I recommend Battery Widget? Reborn!

Simply because it looks so much better with ICS theme.
