O.K. I tried so many cabs for the 1% battery gunge that now it shows 100% all the time. Or when I unplug it it still shows the plug icon. Anyone know of a way to return it to normal without doing a hard reset?
I'm having this same problem... i've been trying to install a taskbar of some sort with nicer icons and haven't been able to get any to work correctly, mostly because the signal strength Icon is replaced by the "no sim card" icon. so I've uninstalled them, and have the same problem now with the Battery not updating...
Use this
Ive used this cab to fix mine altough the battery icons will change u can make a search to find other taskbar icons if you like and the battery increments will go by 20% but work tough. Not my work but worked for me

How can I hide the battery indicator in Treo 750.
I have used SPB shell, it shows battery and percent power in screen so I do not want Treo 750 have the origin icon of battery at the top of screen. I have tried to remove this battery icon by change Power Item in registry but not success.
Who can tell me the way to hide it.
Thanks
Hide extra battery icon and show clock.
goto
HKLM/software/microsoft/shell - new dword ShowTitleBarClock with value=1
Needed a soft reset
Strange, no effect for me... :| Should it remove battery indicator? Here, after softreset everything is as it was. I would like to try one from iLauncher...
It does not work for me either. I also have the battery percentage & free memory showing on the title bar and would like to remove the original battery indicator.
Thanks for any help.
PS: I have been lurking around this forum since I got my Treo back in July of 07. I haven't posted much but have used all the knowledge in here including the update to WM6 & removing the att&t stuff. Thank you all, this is a great site.
Does anyone managed to hide the battery logo left of the clock?
I can't find any solution.
Bump to keep this thread going - would love to reclaim that bar space as well.
The only solution I know of replaces the battery indicator with the speaker icon. It is better than having two battery indicators If interested see here.
Thanx!

Sorry! I can not overwrite or delete the BatteryIndicator.exe file in folder \windows because It is in ROM.
Who has other way else?
Thanks
I use Resco File Explorer. And it does seem as if it won't let you overwrite the file, but it actually does. What app are you using to copy and overwrite with?
I use Resco File Explorer too. But can not delete or Replace the file. The OS is WM6.1; Software Ver. TREO750-2.25-ATT
I am using the stock AT&T ROM. The battery indicator under Settings/Power just shows a green bar with remaining battery life, but no percentage. Is this how it's supposed to be? Is there a way to get the percentage of battery remaining to show as well?
yo can have percentage of battery on taskbar. Look at this tread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437307
Thanks for the response. I'm not looking for new icons, though - I just wondered if there was a way to get information about battery percentage (like a registry edit). Do other people's Fuzes show percentage battery remaining under the power setting? I checked my husband's, and his, like mine, does not give this information.
have you found a way into this?
i'm looking for the same thing -- instead of the icon an actual % like 10% etc... but i can't find anything for it.
edit:
the url that Majkeljj posted is correct.
i found a post with this picture
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=129627&d=1226608629
and the solution was that mod.
i will try it and see
I was less concerned about changing what it says on the taskbar (I don't want it to look crowded with so much stuff), but hoping I could find a way for it to show the percentage when you actually go into the settings menu. When I go into the settings, there is no percentage there - just the visual representation of how much battery life is left. I still haven't found the answer to this.
Anyone find out if it is possible to add this? I just noticed this tonight. I'm on a custom rom (Da-G 2.02) but I do not have a battery level percentage under Start>Settings>System>Power.
Hey,
I hard reset my phone the other day as i messed it up to go to a fresh install of NatF's 4.4
Ever since i ahve an icon in the top bar which looks like a batter with a plug going into it. This is always there and the phone is not even plugged in. How can i get rid of it?, what does it mean? - It was there on my previous install of this rom.
Also, the icons in the programs and settings menus are small, especially the text. I used to get 3 icons to a line but now get 4? - which is normal?
Thanks
Regards,
Neil

Hi Neil,
Not sure about the battery icon in your task bar but the norm is 3 icons per row in Settings and Programs. If you want to change it back to 3, NATF has a custom cab for it in his thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=469450#4
If you want to make the font on the icons bigger, use Schap's Advanced Config and under "User Interface" change: "Icon title font size" default is 6 on NATF's roms.
You're still on 4.4? You know he released 4.6 today.
yeh, I would upgrade but it takes ages to reinstall all my apps and the main thing is setting everything to how I like it! - so many small options hidden everywhere which take ages to alter and fix to my liking
Hi,
I'd like to replace the stock battery indicator in the status bar with one that would indicate the remaining % of available battery.
I've looked into the Market without finding such simple tool (I'm not looking for any other fancy battery widget/tool).
So far, I found "Battery Notif", an app that does almost what I'm looking for: Battery Notif adds another icon in the tool bar with a battery % indicator but it does not remove the stock battery icon. So I end-up with 2 battery icons in the status bar, one with percentage, one without.
Does anyone know an app that would fit my needs (free preferably), or could create such app?
Altenatively, could anyone tell me how to remove the stock battery indicator because I'd be happy to keep with Battery Notif?
Thanks in advance
Surfinette
PS: I have a rooted HTC Desire with custom ROM 2.1
Would be interesting for me too!!!
There are two such Apps available that both show a figure in percentage in the notification bar which are very good.
1. Battery Alarm
2. Battery Minder.
Both have notifications and both show different types of info in the drop down notification window.
I've installed them both and am currently using the second one Battery Minder.
1. Battery Alarm
2. Battery Minder.

I've just tried both apps you suggested, but they don't really solve my problem:
1. Battery alarm doesn't seem to show % in the status bar and does not remove the stock alarm indicator from the status bar
2. Battery Minder indicates battery level in % (so does Battery Notif which I'm using) but does not remove the stock battery icon
What I'm really looking for is how to remove the stock battery icon from the status bar (so that I can use a more useful battery indicator such as Battery Notif)
Thank you anyway for your help

No problem... sorry they weren't suitable.
Strange though that you say Battery Alarm does not show the percentage as on my Galaxy S it did.
Go into spare parts if your rom includes it or download it. In that app, there is an option for displaying battery percentage which will display a number over the stock battery indicator except when it is at 100. I recommend making the color of text white

I re-downloaded Spare Parts from the market and, similarly, there is no option for this... Did you download from somewhere else?

I too am looking for a complete solution for the two conditions from the OP:
I used Battery Indicator Pro while on stock, and now that I am rooted I am looking to remove the stock battery indicator because it doesn't display the same information in the notifications as:
Unplugged since xx:xx Time
Discharging from xx%
Temperature
**The battery indicator itself does not drain so there is no need to have white text and the battery indicator can change color at customized levels
I am using CM-6 and I know how to enable the battery %. There is an option to disable the clock from being displayed, but I don't know of any way to keep the battery indicator from being displayed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advanced...
I find that using Battery Indicator Pro actually boggs down the process and drains the battery. Try this next time.
Turn on on the battery indicator and access your OEM task manager and see how long the installed apps take to load.
Next, turn off the battery indicator and do it again and see how long will it take. You will see a definite improvement.
Try this one

If you're rooted - use this - it replaces the battery with circle battery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=724778#
If you're unrooted - use the prior post to add a notification bar circle battery icon. Your stock battery will still appear however.
ok...
Go to Settings / CyanogenMod settings / User Interface / Status bar --> here enable the battery percentage a make the color WHITE... so you will see it better.
Have Fun

Hi! I am new to the whole mod and theme idea. Recently, I have been playing around with some files, editing some images to change the way how my phone looks. I am using the circleblue theme to replace the usual battery. However, when I did, it does not show up correctly. Rather, the image remains at a certain number, while the real battery is completely different.
As shown,
http://i.imgur.com/Tb64OBY.png
I figured that my icon will only move at certain intervals. How can I allow the battery icon to match the real battery percentage? I have all the icon, but the icons will not change. I searched everywhere, but could not find the answer. Maybe because I am unsure of the correct keywords for this.
Thank you!
