I really like how Samsungs offer the battery percentage by the single digits versus motorola with the increments of 10. My friend has a Samsung Fascinate and he has the battery percentage over the battery icon in the upper right hand corner of the notification bar. I really want that too, and i have sent Jrummy16 numerous emails (the developer of liberty tool box, root tools, etc...) about possible dev support for the droid charge, and getting that battery percentage. But he doesn't respond to emails, so i've given up on his help. Does anybody else know about any method of getting that besides an app or a wiget?

you would be better off contacting individuals who work on samsung devices vs moto ones...but regardless...its just changing 3 xmls files in framework-res and adding the 120+ images for accurate battery
however no one is going to do this until you have recovery released...because w/o backups the chance of soft bricking is too high

well until you have a 100% functional cwr i doubt anyone will take it on....although its not really difficult at all
hmm... well i dont know who i should be contacting to get some information or help with this task. I don't know what needs to be done in order to obtain it. So i guess i'll just wait until somebody comes out with a ROM for it, usually samsung ROM's have come with that feature built in.

Once you guys have recovery ill do it.unless any themers or devs who have the charge get to it first....just would need people to test it since I don't have a charge to try it myself
so wait... what is it you need? do you need me to send you the recovery file so you can edit it? just tell what you need, and i'll try to get it to you. I'm more than willing to test it with my phone.

I have the frameworks...I just wont. Bother with it until you guys have cwr....I realize you have an odin recovery file...but if I screw up id rather you could just restore a nandroid
ok, now I see what your saying. Makes sense now, although using odin to flash a back up is really simple... I hope they get cwr soon

Drivers, yes. Bootloaders, not really.
Jobless for 6 months, and now under heavy load to help a startup company get going, I've just been too slammed to get moving further. I've talked with TheLastSidekick about sending him his phone back, but he declined and said I could hang on to it a bit longer.
Either way, I'm hoping after a few more bills get paid off (from being out of work so long), that I'll be able to buy an sk4g for me to experiment with hardware modifications to get an sk4g dev phone. Mostly because I don't want to mess up TLS's sidekick.
I've also had some problems with porting sk4g to the teamacid sgs4g 2.6.35.7 kernel. Not that it isn't possible, I'm just short on time. If you know how to hack on kernels, have a usb uart, and an sk4g, let me know. I can share code and builds.
I don't have time to teach kernel development, you'll have to wait for xda-university to come online for that.
So to answer the OP's question: It's being worked on, but very slowly. Sorry about that. I'm still waiting on my time machine to come in the mail so I can stop time and get everything done at once.

If so, do you have any idea how much it will cost? The phone was rooted so I'm fairly certain it's not covered by any warranty.
before you do anything of that nature, what is going on, please explain what happened in as much detail as possible, screenshots would be very helpful. i have"bricked" my infuse countless times, and i've still got it running and working great right now, never had to pay for anyone to fix it or anything, as far as i can tell the infuse is pretty much unbrickable.. so if you would like i would like to try and help you out so you may not have to pay to fix something that may not be broke

Just wanted to update everyone here. I was very honest and upfront with the woman I started my trouble ticket with and told her right from the start that I had rooted my phone and caused my own problems. Well I got an email today from Samsung stating that my phone had been re-flashed and was being shipped back to me today by UPS. All I paid for this service was $2.46 for a box and shipping materials at my local UPS outlet. There was no charge for re-flash or shipping! I will always buy Samsung!!!!! :good:
Now to decide what to do since I now have two working Samsung phones on Straight Talk. LOL! Should I reactivate the infuse with it's currently inactive Straight Talk sim card or just use it for my Google Voice phone number and keep my new phone for network calls...
thats great, really surprised samsung didnt make you pay...
I'm surprised also... quite a deal.
How long from when you sent it out until when you got it back? (just curious).

I haven't actually gotten it back yet. I shipped it out on Monday, They got it on Wednesday and Thursday I got the email saying it was shipped back in my direction. I expect it by Saturday at this rate! Also, I called Straight Talk and apparently I can reactivate my Straight Talk SIM card in it with no extra charge since activated a replacement phone before sending it off and I pay for the unlimited plan. All I'll need is a new number for it since the replacement phone has my existing number and I'll have two working Samsung phones for the price of one phone plan. (I still think the Straight Talk representative was full of caca in that regards. LOL! I'll believe it when I see it!) :silly: Life can NOT be that good or I've just entered the Twilight Zone!
Congratulations man.
Btw it's almost impossible to hard brick lol.
I saw your picture of it and it wasn't hard bricked. Either way it's good their fixing it. Consider yourself very lucky. They usually won't fix that.
You take responsibility when you flash.

Never said I wasn't willing to try! I said I didn't feel up to the challenge. There's a big difference there. I don't however have any plans to re-root it for now. Maybe if, or when my brain isn't so scrambled by my current medical situation..... Sometimes, the smartest thing a person can do is recognize their own limitations.

Thanks to op. As a result of this thread, we all learned another option for recovering from inevitable (if you flash) soft brick. It's probably not the first option for most, but it certainly may be helpful to know there's a backup plan if you just can't get your computer to cooperate with heimdal/odin

Glad I could help! :silly: And really upfront honesty when talking to the person who's creating your trouble ticket with humility and self effacing deprecation is recommended! I was a twat for breaking my warranty and I admitted it and they fixed it. Even if I had had to pay a little for the repairs, it would have been worth it! I have my better camera (With an actual Flash) and GPS device back now! FYI - In case anyone is wondering about the Straight Talk Samsung Galaxy Centura camera, it is only 3 Mega Pixels and has no flash!

Yeah I kind of feel the same way about my N5. I really has that phone set up the way I wanted it, with awesome performance. I just really hates fighting with the battery life on it tho.
I still enjoy the G3 a lot tho. Its a great phone as well, just not built with the enthusiast in mind I guess.
