So I talked with the dev of Team Battery Bar app and he's going to release a dual battery bar! So it will show the tablet battery level in one battery bar and then under that it'll show the docking keyboard batter level in another battery bar. I'm not sure how much screen space he's gonna use(guessing 1 or 2 dp per bar), but that should be pretty sweet! I'd actually much more prefer having a battery bar than the dual battery widget. I dont like using widgets and I don't like my notification center all cluttered up.
Just thought I'd let y'all know, it's coming!

Hey guys
I'm wondering if there is a way to have battery percentage on the stock battery icon just like the one in cm6 as I dun like having a battery indicator showing up in the notification area.
Can anyone help or teach me how to make one?
I'm currently using P1000ZHKA1
The best you might get at the moment is the Battery Indicator free on the market. Otherwise I use great widget called Battery Widget on my homescreen and it works good.

Is there a mod to show 1% battery increments? I'm really not a big fan of the 10% increments.

I'm not sure about having a battery mod in the status bar with 1% increments (beyond my knowledge), but Circle Battery Widget (free from the market) will show increments of 1.

It is built into the system this way so circle battery only displays 10% increments
Edit: I'm wrong thanks. Using app now

I'm using an app called "Battery Notifier" (there's about 5 of them ) that also shows 1% increments. It's too bad it can't go in the right side of the notification bar.
If any developer decides to accept the challenge, the way that the 1%-increment apps work is by reading the file at "/sys/devices/platform/cpcap_battery/power_supply/battery/charge_counter" and it holds the exact percentage of the battery.

I really hope we see that mod soon. It would be really cool.

you can use minimal text widget for 1% battery incriments
It's weird because Circle Battery Widget shows 1% increments, but SiMi Clock's battery widget only shows 10% =/
My wife's Motorola Admiral shows in 1% increments, the first Motorola i've seen that does that stock! I would love to see a functioning 1% mod, but after the fustercluck of inaccuracy the 1% mods had, i'll pass. Ive been getting killer battery life with this thing!
I've tried several apps to no avail - they all show only 10% increments.

I prefer an app called "Battery Monitor" (don't do a search on the android market because it will pull up 10 different apps w/ the same/similar name). It's right here and shows 1% increments.

Are you the developer of this app?
http://dnbr.org/other****/batterybar%20widget.png
Hi guys.
Back when I was using my Desire HD I'd rooted my phone and installed Miui. My favourite feature was the battery bar that ran across the top of the notification bar (see http://fc03.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2011/222/f/b/wip__by_chrisbanks2-d464k4m.png)
Anyway, now I'm on GNex and I totally miss this feature. I was wondering if something like a 4x1 widget that could display a battery line along the top of the widget to be placed on the top of a page as I've photoshopped above. The first image shows a 100% battery and the second 40%.
Anyway, just an idea someone might wanna follow up I certainly wouldn't mind paying a couple of quid for this and I'm sure other people would agree.

You can use it on cm7 builds too. If that's any help.

Look at chronotopia app... You can make battery bar widget with it (custom colors) its nice app but you need to read some guides in the topic about how to make this widget. Hope this helps

Just found an app from a Japanese developer that works similarly.

I had done this before when I switched from miui back to CM7 on my Incredible, but it gave my phone a lot of problems. I would love if an app like the OP mentioned were made, I really miss this from miui.

Ah just tried this. It works well though the colour scheme is a bit iffy. Wasn't aware that something like this was possible as a standalone app

Big THANK to you noranyan for giving us this link !
I was looking for a MIUI-like Battery Bar for days, and now, it's done !
So thank you !
@kaineshutler : you're right, the color sheme is a bit iffy, but stay tuned because perhaps the dev will implement a color selection in the future...
Recently, he added the ability to put the bar on bottom.
So it means that the dev is still working on it !
Thanks for pointing this battery app out. Probably would have never found it. Hope the dev keeps updating it.
On thing I noticed good or bad is that the battery bar is always shown in any app so far, even games. I like it because some games do not show battery, and this is pretty unobtrusive.

You can customize the height, location and color of the bar with this.
Cheers.
I noticed on the Prime they have a battery icon for the dock as well as the tab in the status bar and in the notification menu, and since the Transformer has ICS and the new notification menu, should we have the dock battery? or do we need a dock firmware upgrade? or are the new Prime docks have something ours don't?
Does anyone have a dock battery level?
The ics for the transformer prime shows it. But not ours. Was just doing a side by side comparison with a friend's prime.

I'd rather have it in the status bar where it should be.. I think our docks may get a firmware update
The beta version of dual battery widget puts a second icon for the dock battery in the status bar. And it seems to be working OK after today's ICS update.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20086924&postcount=222
And you don't even have to have the widget on your desktop. I've gotten rid to it there, since it is redundant.
As you know, CM7 has no battery level meter, just the icon, so just curious what some of you use. Someone told me one they use all the time, but for the life of me, I can't remember the name of it. Thanks!

You can get it foe free in the xda forum or buy it for $2.89

MiniInfo has a great battery widget that shows charging! Tested in Gingy, ICS and Jellybean. I think its pretty choice.
