This thread is for custom battery icons for the G2 that are installed with the Xposed Framework.
I have installed several from the thread found here and found that the size, alignment or color is incorrect for the G2 status bar.
I started with #7 Circleblue from that thread and resized it for the G2 as well as changed it to white to match the rest of the statusbar icons..
I am not a developer, just someone with access to photoshop for batch actions, so my abilities are extremely limited. I can do some resizing/color changing, but that's pretty much it at this point. I am open to modifying/creating some custom icons as long as they are within my abilities.
All files are listed below in post #2 with a preview of each version.

dr.ketan for compiling the original thread of battery icons
dully79 for his original battery icons and tutorial
Instructions:
-Install Xposed framework
-Disconnect from charger
-Install the battery .apk you choose
-Open Xposed Installer App
-Select the installed battery module you like
-Reboot
-Test to see if icon sticks when connecting charger
-If icon doesnt stick on first reboot, disconnect from charger and reboot (not hotboot) again. Not sure why, but sometimes they need the extra reboot.
Known Issues:
May not work with Gravity Box, or other XPosed modules that effect statusbar.
Not sticking on initial reboot after activating the module. Try another reboot.
Modules are only tested on a Verizon G2 running Malladus ROM.

Blue Circle Battery
Green Circle -
(No modification, just a link to original.)
Grey Circle -
(No modification, just a link to original.)
Alexander -
(No modification, just a link to original.)
On these, I've noticed that on the first reboot after installing, the icon will totally disappear as soon as phone is in charge mode. Rebooting again seems to solve the issue. I've been running these for a few days now without issue.
SenseTube -
(Resized to center in status bar, fixed a few transparency issues)

Hey, thanks, I've been looking for this the last few days, since the original didn't work. Haven't managed to get your mod to work yet though, when I rebooted nothing was changed for me

Do you have xposed installed, and the module activated?
Did not work for me either...
Anyone get it to work?
I just uninstalled, re-downloaded and it seems to work fine on my end. Not sure if it matters, but I'm on a Verizon device running Malladus 1.2.1
Any chance you guys used another module to remove the stock battery icon and that is why the new icon isn't showing up?

You sir are correct, this module does not work with gravitybox. I did not have the battery disabled in gravitybox either.
I spent a few hours tonight getting my machine setup to compile/decompile and I think i now have the ability to do some minor editing of the xml files.
The app names should now be correct when installed. The attachment to the original post has been updated to reflect this.
There is already a stand-alone white circle battery module available which I'm currently running on my Verizon G2 without any issues. I just can't remember where I got it. Once I find the link I'll post it...
How do you guys get white icons (4.4 style) ?
I'm using Xposed module XThemeEngine + theme "KitKat for LG G2" (from G2 Themes and Apps forum), but it's not compatible with this circle battery mod...
And I'd like to get both, as the default stock (blue) icons are quite ugly...
Thanks !

Thanks for this, now I have the green circle battery. My favorite
Added/Tested a few more. More to come as I have time.
thanks for making this xposed module. i wasnt able to get the blue circle battery one working. here is a screenshot of what it looks like on my at&t g2. i do not have any other battery mods enabled.
EDIT: i see what's going on. the mod only works when the phone is charging. when the phone is charging you get what is in the 2nd screen shot. when it isnt charging you get what's in the first screen shot. is there any way for the mod to work also when the phone isnt charging?

Try rebooting again (not hot boot) and see if it resolves the issue. I have seen some of the battery modules take an extra reboot to stick for some reason. This is what I mentioned under the white circle mod that is possibly unstable.

both of those battery mods do the same thing. they work when my g2 is plugged in charging but when i unplug it the battery goes back to stock icon. there might be 2 sections of the smali code. 1 deals with charging and the other deals with not charging. if only the charging part of the code got altered then that would be why the mods arent working when not charging.

This package is a mixture of Super Circle Battery and Smooth Sense Icons. I am not the original author of these mods, full credit goes to the respected authors! I am however the creator of Smooth Circle Battery. For bugs or suggestions, please consult the original thread(s). Please save this thread for comments pertaining to this remix!
Original thread: Smooth Sense Icons
Original thread: Super Circle Battery
Smooth Circle Battery is just a remix of Super Circle Battery. It is smooth scrolling for those that prefer it over the 'block' style.
Requires a deodexed ROM!
I have created six versions of this package:
Blue version:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Green version:
Cyan version:
White version:
Red version:
Classic version:
*Update 8/10*
For those who mix their own mods, here are the files you should copy into your mod for just the Smooth Circle Battery:
framework-res.apk/res/drawable/stat_sys_battery.xml
framework-res.apk/res/drawable/stat_sys_battery_charge.xml
framework-res.apk/res/drawable/zzz_stat_sys_battery_1.xml
framework-res.apk/res/drawable/battery_charge_fill.xml
framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi-v4/stat_sys_battery_0.png (0 through 100)
framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi-v4/stat_sys_battery_charge_anim0.png (0 through 33)
framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi-v4/stat_sys_battery_unknown.png
That should be all of them, I think...
*Update 8/12*
New red version
*Update 8/27*
This mod works on the new 8/26 Froyo leak (MUST BE DEODEXED!), but does not contain the same images as the leak! This affects a great deal of the GUI, such as the lockscreen and buttons. I am trying to find a way to port these icons to the new framework, and will open a new thread when I have!
Tested and confirmed on: SkyRaider 2.2 Vanilla & Sense; Second Wave
Remember: Always nandroid before applying any mod!
This worked brilliantly, thank you soooo much!!
thanks, looks good
Glad you like it! I just updated it to be smooth scrolling. Its now one sexy beast!
those look nice man great job...
does this have transparent shade as well..?
I'm working on trying to roll the super circle icons into my own theme and need to know what files, besides the battery icon pngs, need to be changed to make it work. Thanks!
Using Adrenyline's Evo port rom and, while this did add the scrolling icons and circular battery meter, the battery meter was a bit messed up. While charging, it would always show 98, then 99, then full. When unplugged, it showed some random headphone-looking icon and not the battery meter.
Can this be rebuilt into the stock framework-res.apk?
Hi everyone -- I was just wondering if it's possible for someone to rebuild these great smooth scrolling battery icons into the standard framework-res.apk that comes with the Froyo leak.
I noticed that the framework-res.apk in this mod is structured differently than the stock file, which makes it a little confusing to theme further.
I'd do it myself, but I have no idea how to correctly recompile the necessary XML files so they're pointing to the right graphics...
Just an idea...
I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question...
Do you need to be rooted in order to try this mod?

Yeah, you do.
Are both of these supposed to be blue? Could you maybe make a regular green one?
My apologies in advance as well, but I tried searching the forum and google and didn't really find anything but to install this mod, do you just place the zip file on the root of your sd card and then do the install zip from sdcard in the recovery mode? (I am new to all of this and just barely finished rooting and installing sky raider 2.2)

I think the remixed one changes color as the battery charge goes down. Not entirely sure about this, though. I'm at 90% now, and it's still blue.
EDIT: Confirmed, green begins at 79%.
Yeah both of them are blue someone wanna make a green version? lol the blue doesn't really go with my theme but it looks smooth.. green would be perfect.
is there any way we can get that battery ported for the original droid? i dont know if it would be hard or not, but its great. the theme also looks pretty amazing, but im not on the DI.
Works great. Thanks for merging the 2.
How odd, I thought my battery life was going in the ****ter, as I'd go from 100% green to 90% blue (even after a battery recalibration). Steady 1%-increment counts down to about 84%, so I checked the on-phone meter under Settings and found that it was at 96%. Sure enough, go out and download a battery widget, it shows 96%. Went in, rebooted twice (first reboot had the wrong SD card in it ), flashed the original post #54 green-yellow-red battery, rebooted once more and all is back working accurately.
Just wanted to give the play-by-play in case anyone else seemed to be experiencing any inconsistencies since flashing the mashup.
edit: re-flashing the smooth scroll + smooth circle allowed it to now reflect the proper battery usage. Sitting steady @ 92%
i too experienced some issue with it dropping to 90% instantly after unplugging power. reflashing mod fixed it for me.
i dont know if i merged both of these things right, im still trying to get into it! but i will go ahead and release a green version in the next few days

Desire
yesterday i wanted to get a battery status bar for my desire just like the picture below

"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
found a thread here that explain how to get it
Super Circle Battery with % |Version A-I & Z (Custom)| Desire 2.2 ROM
Problem
However i found out that i am un-able to use it because the requirments for installing (what i have been told in the thread) is that your device has to be
1. Rooted
2. Have different ROM than the stock ROM
personally i find it very inconvenient to root & flash a new ROM just to get this battery circular percentage (thats all i want, I am pretty satisfied with the stock FROYO 2.2)
Solution
I have modified an APK, used an existing programming logic (Battery Indicator - Open Source Project) but with different presentation.
the APK can be installed to your Desire (and probably other android phones without any problems) and it will show you what you want in the notification bar, just like in the screenshot below
Advantages
- You will not need to root your device (this APP will not change any system files in the framework-res.apk)
- You will not need to install different ROM
- Small size APK, you can just download, install and enjoy
Disclaimer
I have tested this APP on my Desire with stock FROYO 2.2 without any problems I have not tested it on any other device.
The App does not alter any system files, worst case scenario you will get FC. but just to be on the safe side, install on your own risk
wold appreciate any feedbacks

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To answer some of the questions
- the Circular Battery Indicator does not use a lot of battery resources, the device broadcasts a message when the battery status changes, the app catches this broadcast and update itself to show the right percentage, it is as simple as that, so it is extremely light weight on the CPU.
-It is impossible to remove/hide the original battery icon on the status bar without root privileges, and if you have root you dont need this app, chances are you already found away to alter the original/stock battery icon to match your desire (check first post for the link on how to change stock battery icon if you have root).
-I am considering uploading this to the market, to reach a bigger market and making the updating process easier, dont have lots of time to do this now, but i am surly considering it
-for all the people who are interested in the control switch more than the app itself Lol ... its called "SwitchPro" widget
Enjoy
Irkan
UPDATE 27-OCT-2010
A version for the Desire's twin brother, Nexus One (and all other phones that has white status bar) check the attachments for downloads
UPDATE 17-OCT-2010
Fixed some small FC issue reported by a friend
UPDATE 16-OCT-2010
Alright a new version, with gradient color fill, less complicated code, and new icon
if you liked the app, hit the "Thanks" button

I like this idea for non-rooted users. Nice work!
Anyone have any ideas for hiding the original one? (without needing root preferably since obviously with root you could install this as a morph/flash).

that could be tricky, since altering any default component in the bar requires system privilege (i.e. root)

Ahaa i guess because wildwfire is using mdpi so it took old icons, not hdpi, first version i developed was for hdpi only, but now both have same icons
how is the graphics in your wildfire (app graphics) are they choppy or anything?
offtopic: how to get that bar with flight mode, vibration, 3g, bluetooth etc. buttons? I have that too but there's only like 4 different buttons.
looks awesome! i'm gonna try and see how it works for me
Works very well over here, thanks for sharing.
Sent from my rooted X10i using tapatalk preparing to go out to watch soccer....
Tested on Vodafone 845, works perfectly.
The circular indicator looks a bit pixelated though. Perhaps it has something to do with the screen resolution?
Anyway, great app!
I can't see the % number (in white) clearly in my Nexus One (status bar is in white).
I have the same problem as kwankl, except I can't see the number at all. Is it possible to have a version with black numbers?
Thx

Anyone ?
http://www.appbrain.com/app/power-control-plus-(widget)/com.siriusapplications.eclairwidgets
where did you get that power control widget with all the extra stuff on it?
Anyone have any comments on how battery intensive this battery monitor is? Most of the other widgets or notification apps I've tried seem to have a serious impact on battery life. Quick Battery is probably my favorite so far and seems to drain the least juice. I like this one's look much better, so I hope it doesn't chew battery.
BTW, display icon looks great on an EVO. Text is clear and readable too.

the red theme is because it was designed for my rom
dont know whats up with the ear icon still trying to figure it out.
i may just make these metamorph themes because its more universal.
so far im not sure if any of them work on the evo.
i have an incredible so i cant test on evo.
Very nice. Thanks for posting.
How would I modify so there was no% ??
I get the ear symbol instead of the battery icon. Also it changed some things to red like my progress bar and when I select something its highlighted in red. Can you fix these problems?

The liquid battery from this thread? Did it work?
Can I get the red theme without the batteries?
got the ear icon also is there anyway to just change the battery icon only ? and not everything else
sorry guys for the delay in replies.
ill try to answer all questions
1. these were made for my rom for incredible so some things will change like transitions and red theme parts. im thinking about making these metamorph files so that stuff wont change. (im working on it)
2. im not sure why people are getting that ear icon. they work for the incredible just fine
it may be just one of the differences between incredible and evo framework.
( im working on figuring all this out)
3. if i can make them metamorph files than i dont think these will be issues any longer
can someone tell me if the my liquid battery works this one may
be different because someone else made the icons but they came 10%,20%.30%....ect
i had to make new icons that would fill in the gaps 1%,2%,3%....ect
so this one i had to build from almost from scratch.
i can do this with the other ones if the liquid battery works.
4. these should all work but i cant test on evo but framework is similar to inc framework
so i thought they would work fine (i guess i was wrong)
i will need some people that cant test them on the evo because i dont have an evo
(im working on getting one) ive been getting a bunch of donations so i hope to have a test evo soon.
5. im sorry that they are not working on the evo yet
( I am working on getting everything working )

I have a theme but its for the incredible
i will work on getting you an all red theme for the evo.
due to some of the issues that the battery is causing
it may give you the darn ear icon.
if you dont mind testing a few out so i can iron out the kinks
i will post the first test theme soon.
also if someone could post a screen shot of the task bar with the ear icon so i can get an idea of whats going on that would help.
thanks
This theme was tested on CM6 and FreeX10 (thanks, bcool15 for testing on FX10!)
This theme's base is desire/cyanogen6
I do not take credit for any of the graphics used in this theme!!! It is a hybrid of Sempiternal's X FX10 theme and this theme created by vukandric. Big thanks to both of them for all the hard work they have put into creating both these themes!!!
Slimer v1.0
*install with Xrecovery
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XG5BCLK6
For anyone who is interested in the CM tweaks file I'm currently using I have included it in the download. This will complete the theme, including battery percentage, etc, just like shown in my screenshots. Extract the rar file directly to your SD card's root folder. The filepath should look like this:
SD card>CMtheme>Slimer.xml
Open android settings and navigate to CM settings>user interface>tweaks extras>select a theme....select Slimer.

You need to use an lcd density changer app. There is a free one on the market. I think 200 is perfect.

The battery meter is supposed to flash when it charges. Without the tweaks applied the percentge won't show. Sorry, I will reupload the theme with the phone app. I forgot to include it with the theme originally.
Dock icons are part of launcher pro, not the theme.
I looked at the theme and the phone apk is included already. However, if for some reason it didn't take, you can install this custom zip with recovery

pls reupload the screenshots
Why??? Screenshots are fine lol I can see them
I guess it's our country ISP's domain problem, can't see the pic here too.
I don't see any screenshot as well
Ok, sorry, guys. I wasn't aware that anyone had blocked imageshack. I dunno why, but whatever lol
I've attached the screenshots to the first post, so you should be able to view them now....look at the bottom of the OP to view
Screenshots are brilliant
Nice looking theme!!
So I installed the theme and am loving it BUT I can't seem to get the Notification Power Widget to work. I have everything selected properly but it just won't show.
Also, there is this gray bar along the top of the lockscreen that shows my provider on the right but also has a Plus sign in the middle and then just gray to left. I tried adjusting the settings for the Date and Provider settings in CM Settings but nothing seems to make the bar disappear. It will make my provider information disappear but the plus sign and gray bar remain. Any suggestions?

Some things need you to reboot your phone after changing in the tweaks menu. Try restarting your phone and see if it helps....I'm pretty sure the power widgets is one of those items

I rebooted a few times after changing things (it gives a prompt to do so after you change anything) and still no go.
The Settings menu and dialer also doesn't look like it does in your screen shot so I tried reinstalling it and the theme with the same result. I'm considering reinstalling Beta 4 and starting from scratch again.......
Any other suggestions?
I really don't know what to tell you...it should work. The phone app I posted is the correct one. If it's not changing on your phone then it's not installing properly for some reason...I'm not sure why, but if you're willing to try a fresh install from scratch, then go for it!!

I have no doubts that it should work, just trying to figure out why it isn't.
I have quite a few backups from the stuff I was doing so it's not a problem to get back to my previous 2.1 install. It's just a pain.....making a backup as I type this.
I'll try to restore the backup I made before I installed the theme and if that doesn't work, then I guess I'm back to the reinstall Beta 4 option.

So I restored to before installing the theme and still no dice. Restoring back to 2.1 right now and then will try reinstalling Beta 4 and trying again.
Just out of curiousity, with which basebands is this theme meant to work? I am running baseband .55 and was wondering if that might have something to do with the issues I was experiencing.
So to kill time I figured I'd try my luck with the UOT kitchen and add battery % to the stock battery icon in the status bar. It works!
I have the 4.0.0.9 recovery from Modaco and I also installed Paul's de-odexed version of the stock ROM. Several users have now confirmed that it works fine on the 100% stock rooted ROM without any problems.
Here's an example of what it looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here's exactly what I did to install:
1. Download file
2. Reboot into Recovery
3. Clear cache/dalvik
4. Install zip from sd card
5. Select BatteryPercentage.zip
6. Wait for install to complete
7. Reboot device, it may take a little longer...
And here's the file:

I also added battery % to the debloated ROM undeadk9 posted in the dev section. It looks just like the battery % posted above. Here's the link:

I created a new theme in UOT kitchen that's b&w much like the theme pmcqueen created but a little simpler, with battery %, status bar mods, and pop-up window/slider bar mods. I left off flying window animations because I wanted to keep this a bit more stockish; also, I kept getting errors trying to flash pmcqueen's theme so I made my own...

Here's the file link for the theme!

P.S. I suppose it goes without saying that you need to be rooted...
Thanks what accounts for the size of this modification? is an active element that draws battery power?

I'm not sure. There are 100 images for battery and several images for charging. Then there's installation scripts and what not and Framework mods. I couldn't say it draws power but there's obviously some sort of constant communication (as there was before, too.) My battery life hasn't been affected at all today, so I'm not worried about it.

all this mod does is give you a modified systemui.apk and framework-res.apk and packages them into an installable zip that replaces the apks already on your phone.
if you open up the zip, you'll find systemui.apk and frameworkres.apk (which have been modified by the UOT kitchen), which is why the zip is 4.x MB. it's replacing entire apks, not just the battery images themselves.
gracias! I uploaded the systemUI and framework apks into the UOT kitchen and it must have rewritten them with the modified images and voila!
Very happy progress - not having battery % as a number up in my status bar is a pain in the ass.
Glad someone is dumping time into this, it was on my list but all the other work i'm doing with this phone has been keeping me from it.
I'm not running the de-odexed ROM, so i'm gonna hold off on this at the moment, but i'm (again) very happy to see someone working on this. (unless you think it'll work on the stock rom?)
Thank ya. no problems. Glad to have this.

should work just fine. backup just to make sure, but I don't think it will be an issue.

Thanks for the vote of confidence! - Wish i'd seen that when you posted it, or I would have installed this a long time ago.
I couldn't resist, it only took a few hours after I downloaded before I couldn't hold off any longer.
Fantastic work, no-nonsense exactly what I wanted. Shows me the numerical percentage of battery capacity inside my battery icon on the status bar. Still shows the lightning bolt when charging.
Numerical display is accurate compared to all the apps I that I had on the phone that told me this, and now I dropped a widget from one of my desktops that was hanging around just to show me the percentage as a number - something I couldn't find anywhere else on the phone. (WTF HTC)
So I can now confirm this will work on stock/rooted ROM, no issues. Thanks unclespoon!
You're welcome! It was a fun learning experience for me, too. The UOT kitchen has always felt a little overwhelming to me, but now I feel much more comfortable with how it works and am more willing to play around with stuff! I'd do more, but for now battery % was all I really wanted.
Hugs and kiss in a none homo way. Like italian bros. Lol

Hahaha you're welcome! Also, I updated the OP with a new, more inclusive pic along with information that it has been confirmed to work 100% A-OK with the stock ROM!
tried it with stock rom and it works, thanks. Unrelatd question, how much space did you save by going with paul's stock deoxed rom? I have uninstalled a lot (majority) of things using Titanium explroer, but am simply too lazy to go back for the odexs.
Thanks
Now the onlyh thing left to do is find a way to remove recent and the t-mobile sign.

Thanks! I made another one that's all b&w with overscroll, highlights, and a few other things. I kept it pretty simple though to just keep it stock-ish with a black & white theme. I can upload pics if you want but it's pretty similar to the one pmcqueen posted, but for some reason his didn't flash correctly on mine so I made my own.
Here's the file:

Flashing is the same as the OP link. This just has more stuff and is monochromatic. I like it! It's fun to keep changing things up!
