Hello. I have a Samsung Saga and would love to have a battery bar at the top like the one by spb and this one... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=480914 ...but I am not knowledgable in C++. The bars currently use notifications for the percentage and the Saga uses a registry entry for the battery, so there are no notifications that support the battery utilizations. I have made use of a mortscript I modified that replaces the owner bar information on the today screen with the battery info including now an estimator of how long I can use my phone before I need to charge for the Saga. I just wish I could also have the battery bar at the top, can anyone help with this? Maybe a battery bar could be written that just reads a certain registry entry that I could populate every couple of seconds with the percentage or something similar?
Thanks for any help you can provide,
Later

Hello!
I had on my TC with the original ROM a small icon with a battery indicator in the top right corner. After update to Win 6.1 its place was taken by a nasty clock. I managed to get rid of the clock using the registry. Now, how can I make my battery indicator come back? I really long for it ...
P.S. What is bad about charging the battery through USB? I've heard that it is generally recommended to disable this function...
Use the Advanced Config Tool (search the forums for it). It allows you to set whether to display the battery or the clock on the title bar among a myriad of other settings. Really a great tool. There probably is a reg change somewhere but the tool makes a lot of the tweaks easy.
Or a simple registry edit:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ShowTitleBarClock=0
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:

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.
I don't know why but randomly my battery bar on the top bar of my phone changed to the time. I just want to know if anyone knows why this happened and how to get it back to show the battery bar again
I have the xv6800 wm6.1 stock rom
I can not figure it out. Everytime I choose the option to show time on the task bar the battery meter disapears, and visa versa. Can someone help? Thank you!
are you running custom or stock? Is there any thing installed that may interfere/influence the behavior of the task bar and it's icons? Recently i had a similar issue with my tp2 taskbar and i figured out that i had disabled the battery and icon through the sk tools applications by modifying the registry. I had to reverse my actions in order to get them back. Some more info about your rom and programs may help us hone in on the issue.
Hi,
I've recently purchased a HTC Touch Pro 2 running WM6.1. Before that I was on a Palm Treo 750 on WM6.0, and on the Palm when I touched the battery icon it would pop up an info bubble showing the % remaining. For that matter any of the other icons in the taskbar I clicked on popped up an info bubble. It just makes sense - icon provides basic info, if you want more detail click on it, simple. I presumed this was normal behaviour until I came to the HTC, and now when I click on the battery icon (or network icon or speaker icon for that matter) I just get a 'Notifications' screen which tells me nothing about the battery (or speaker, and not much about the network).
The battery icon itself on the Palm had a smooth decline from 100% to 0% rather than the HTC one which has just 4 fat bars. I know there are numerous other icons out there but I guess my question goes beyond just the appearance of the battery icon to the functionality of the whole taskbar.
How do I go about restoring the 'sensible' functionality of the Palm on the HTC?
Thanks,
Greg
