Disclamer Stuff
You need to be Deodexed to use for now unless someone tests on .odex and confirms working.
Always make a nandroid before testing!!
First off this mod is combined with the last toggle version i made for my phone. So at the momment you get both combined.
I can add it to other versions if people are using those just have to pm me.
I removed the Normal Battery % next to the clock
(not really removed but i replaced it with a 1x1 blank pixel)
there are two versions
1) with bar along top of status bar
2) with bar along bottom of status bar

Credit
All credit belongs to pvyParts his Tutorial here if you want to add to your own.
He also has a App Version no modding or flashing Required Here App version does run a extra Procsess in background but has added benefit of being onscreen fulltime if you use apps that are always fullscreen.
I have been waiting to unlock and root for the battery bar, now for voiding my warranty

Ok, flashed the top one. I don't have a battery icon or a bar. Did I miss something?
Edit: gonna try the bottom one. Brb.
Edit again: no bottom bar either.

Did you run battery bar setting from the app drawer then uncheck and recheck the show bat setting.

I found out the Charging animations work you just have to click it on and off acouple times to get it to take effect
Confirmed deodexed only. Crashes systemui if odexed.
Not to spoil fun or hard work, but the market app works fine and is free.

Where's the fun in that? Anyone can install an app from the market, it's more fun if you can break something in the process.
Ya app works fine its running as a extra service the mod isnt thats the only diffrence

You need to apply a theme so your phone had to be rooted ifa you want it on the right side of bar
Otherwise you can use progs like circular battery but they goes on the left as a notification

Other alternatives?
Are there other alternatives aside from Button Savior and zSmooth? I've used both and each has pros and cons. Currently I prefer Button Savior. I'm just wondering if there are other apps that do the same thing.
Softkeys is another one.
https://market.android.com/details?id=net.hoopajoo.android.SoftKeys
updated to: 1.1.4
Dev is extremely responsive. He added the other button locations and also cleaned up the button thing.
Please respond on his blog for additional things you want.
I've asked for ability to change size of buttons and spacing between buttons.
I've asked for the ability to change the location of the [x] amd the [...] buttons.

REQ: Customize icon for remapped button
Thank you. Very useful app.
Especially when holding a tablet in portrait mode Android's back button has a very unconvenient position.
I remapped the call-button to a dictionary. It would be a nice feature to show the app icon instead of the standard icon.
its looks pretty cool just wondering if anyone has tried it yet here is the feature

For all you TouchWiz Launcher fans, XDA member’s Fr4gg0r & Swiftwork have developed a modified version that works with “Every device with armv7 processor and froyo or higher.“ Some of the great features included in this modified version of TW include:
App Drawer
Number of apps per page
Number of app columns
Sort order (normal/alphabetical, alphabetical will be forced after reboot/changing from normal to alphabetical)
Enable/disable app backdrops
Enable/disable 3D effect for backdrops
Badge Counter
enable/disable unread g-mail counter (specify accounts to show counter for)
enable/disable unread sms counter or Samsung Counter
Themes
You can combine themes (e.g. a full theme and then apply just a dock theme)
EXTRA Stuff:
Resizing for all widgets enabled (long press widget and then drop it without moving)
Scrolling widgets are supported (currently not recommended to use though, lags when scrolling)

Came across this on Saturday. It's a MIUI style battery bar that will display along the top edge of the screen above the status bar.
Some nice features:
- free
- no root required
- accurately auto-hides when you use a fulscreen app
- you can customize the color to whatever you want
- light on resources
- I've been using it for two days and so far I have not noticed a single issue/bug with it, or related to it.

You could always just load that screenshot in app like Image Color Picker to find the color value.

Or even Google it. I've found the hex value for the ICS blue that way.

I am looking for apps/widgets, which show pending notification count of emails/phone calls/sms/gmail etc... I couldnt find one in market which does all these.
That's probably going to be a launcher thing. I use Nova launcher ... It has the count post attached to the corresponding app.See screen shot below .. Notice the email count badge attached.

Missed It (search play store) works really well. by itself it can monitor any app you want and display on a widget but you can pair it up with nova launch pro and display the number on the icon for any app as well.
I'm on stock, and I've only seen this icon on stock. I usually notice it while I'm loading an app

also when I pull the status bar down there is no notification about it and the icon goes away. I'm on stock 4.1.2
Hmm, looks...unusual.. You first thought was a music app or distorted weather notification. How long has it been there? Maybe try downloading "Air Push Detector" and see if that app catches anything?

I only have stock music player and google play music installed. And I know it's not from my weather app cause I remembering seeing this back when I didn't have this app. It's always been here, it shows up randomly for a short period of time and only on stock. And I usually notice it when starting up an app or I'll see it there after an app has started. Then I pull down the notification bar and it goes away. I got that app and scanned and 1 app came up but I remember seeing this status bar icon at a time I didn't have that app installed.
You actually get that as you would with 3 navigation on Aosp when you get the 3 dot overflow but does it with your notifications when you load something. Nothing to worry about unless it's constant while your actually on the home screen?
