Hi,
I know there are multiple skins around that changes the battery icon so it displays the percentage of charge left. But I'm searching for a skin that also changes the plug-icon that's being displayed while the device is charging to an icon that that displays a percentage that counts up while it's charging.
The more simple the better
I know there's something called Arielbattery that does the trick, but I don't really like the idea that the original icon is still there, and that Arielbattery puts a new icon right on top of it.
I've searched the whole forum, but I just can't find it
Anyone knows if that exists?
Thanks in advance
I cannot give you a real solution. But s2u2 shows battery charge also while its charging. So it should be possible.
Edit: Just saw that this thread is very old. Sry

Hello All,
I found the treo battery meter on the Cheetah section (Thanks to Vijay555). The .exe runs, and places the battery icon on the right place, but it does not change with time, it displays the startup level even when charging etc.
Can someone repack it or give me a .cab that i can use fully? Thanks
Don't bother with it. The guys hacked the existing Hermes battery meter to be significantly more useful. Look up the "green" battery meter and you'll find skins etc.

I have the different versions of the green battery meter, but it has several issues on the HERMES:
1. It changes the UMTS/3G icon to "E"
2. I cant have the Green Battery and the Clock on the title bar at the same time.
Plus I prefer having the volume icon covered.
Do you have any ideas as to why its not reflecting/collecting battery info in real time?
The Battery meter dll is part of Palms ROM and I havent been able to copy it out.
Thanks in advance.
ALternatively,
Does anyone know what the battery meter application is in the attached image?

This battery meter application comes with eten devices
So many threads coming up with a search. Can someone easily tell me how to remove the battery icon from the top bar in my Orange SPV 3100
Many thanks.
HTCustom does it easy. There are links all over for it. Although if you remove it the blank spot also covers up the "sound" icon and part of the reception icon
Well wait. I just noticed you said battery. Default there is the clock. So you've changed it before? HTCustom will still let u change this (UI tab i believe) but it sounds like you've changed it before.
I haven't done much - I have just allowed user information on the screen, which takes care of the clock, as this now shows in the "today" area. The battery icon has replaced where the time was on the top bar. I will try HTcustom and see what happens!! thanks for the help.
In the official WM5 ROM from I-Mate the battery icon is shown on the title bar and clock is hidden beneath it. Is there a way to bring it down to systray and make the clock visible? Please help.
download Batti v2.1 from http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/batti.shtml and install it on your universal. In the settings for the app, uncheck "Show Battery Icon in Top Bar". That will display the clock in the top bar!
download Battery Watch v1.03 from http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/batterywatch.shtml and install it on your universal to get the battery icon on your systray!
They're both freeware, so, enjoy!!
I found the answer to the part of my question at http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Registry about adding battery icon to systray and I would like similar procedure for its removal from title bar. Thanks for your help I will be certainly using your addon untill I get my desired answer. Thanks a lot once again.
I would recommend having Batti as a must-have application if you like battery stats! The rest is up to you of course, i always prefer moderate-functionality apps to messing with the registry myself! They're small, easier to handle, removable and just provide more functionality that reg-editting!!
I used Batti but it didn't removed battery icon. What happens is that when app installs it is already configured not to show battery icon but the icon shows so I enabled it just to give a try and as a result two icons were shown then I unchecked it and only the new icon went away. The original icon remained there. Registery hack is a must!!!
weird, now i'm wondering how i got rid of the battery icon I'll let you know if i figure that out
That's really very nice !!!!! Figure it out soon please !
Still awaiting response. Please somebody help me soon.
Does anyone know how to remove the small 4 segment battery icon from the lower tray in the today screen. I don't really see the point in it existing with the one in the upper taskbar being there already.
I've already checked for running tasks, as well as startup programs for a program which may be creating the icon, but I can't seem to find anything suspicious. I think it must be part of a hidden process which I can't seem to find.
I have searched the SEX1 forums extensively and not founf anything relating to the icon in question. I can try and take screenshots if anyone is unsure about the specific icon I am talking about.
For reference, i'm currently using Norti's excellent "nX1i v1.04" rom.
Thanks in advance for any responses/solutions you may have.
It is there so that if you have the clock displayed at all times in the title bar, there still is a battery indicator (By displaying the clock in titlebar you lose the battery icon). Anyway here's how to remove it: Get yourself a registry editor and set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power\ShowIcondword to 0. Then Softreset. The icon will be gone IF it's this one. Of course it is possible that on your ROM there is another software installed which produces the icon, but I don't guess that.

Yay, finally gone!
Thanks for that, it's always the simple things you forget to do, like searching the registry. Now that i've got the panels button mapped to the start menu too, this may well be my favourite device yet. I think I may like it even more than my HTC Diamond...
On my HD2, I have got the tsowen taskbar installed which is great, however when I'm charging the icon stops showing percentage charged and shows a flash symbol instead. I want to know how much it is charged withut aving to go into Power properties or take it off charge and wait until the symbol is updated. Is there a way to change that icon to ALWAYS show the charged percentage ?
On a wider note, is there a simple way to add and remove icons that are displayed in the taskbar ? In my old PocketPC days, I used to use a program called Wisbar which really simply allowed you to play with what was displayed or not. Is there anything equivalent for the new generation of WinMo phones ?
Thanks in advance,
Jeremy
Wisbar still exists and if you want to see how much power u have just tap the taskbar to show you the notification screen and there is a percentage battery indicator.
