Does anyone know the name of the widget that spells out the battery percentage on the home screen in large white letters (such as "Fully Charged" or "Eighty Percent")?
I've searched and just can't find this. I found TONS of relevant information about battery life, etc., but nothing about this widget.
Thanks in advance.

I think it's called battstatt...
That is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much, bilbobrian!

Sorry if has already been posted - I did search and found nothing. I'm going mad trying to get both the Time and battery to display on the task bar. I can only ever seem to get one or the other and really need both. I've seen theme pictures which have them, but only the iphone style. I've tried HD tweak and even with both set I only seem to get one. I'm not worried about the date, but that would be nice aswell.
If anyone can help it would be great.
I also second this. I've done a search and read various threads about having both, but they don't offer a method of showing both the normal/standard icons on the top.
Wisbar sounds like overkill. wkTask, ditto, don't need another app just for this.
Lordsmiff's color bar prob. works (didn't try), but want an actual icon, not a colored bar along the top.
There are some really awesome icons (the battery with %) for these 2 now, so I'd like both.
My iPhone displayed time and battery pretty much in most situations... not sure why it's so hard on WM phones.
Thanks
Try with SKTools man
Thanks for the info on SKTools, but I beleive this only does date and time, as that is whats listed in its tweaks section. Can you confirm it will display the battery and time?
Thanks
I couldn't find anything else either, but I'm happy with the colorbar; to be honest, I think it works better than an icon solution, as just a glance up top tells me what I need to know, where I would have to squint at an icon.
So, give it a shot...you can always uninstall it
I use Quickmenu which also displays the battery on the left while the time (and date using hdtweak) is displayed on the right. Use the wiki for the dl-link.
Nope, but u can combine it with "dciBattery", it's very light and elegance. I like it.
SKtools and "dciBattery" are perfect solution for your pane, i think.
Sorry for my english
Hey everybody know, how to show that icon battery in atom??
i just bought this phone, and i cant look icon battery in sreen. I dont know about it, i still nubi about this phone.
thank u.
(sorry english bad)
There are several applications that show the battery charge level but I personally prefer to install SPB Pocket Plus on my phone. It has this feature of a battery meter at the top of the screen that shows you how much battery is left even without clicking on any shortcut. Plus you can place program shortcuts on your today screen and organise them. It's pretty neat
Is there a way to get a percentage number along with the battery icon?
There is a free widget available in the market which does exactly what u assked for.
Just search for "battery percentage"
Sorry, I wasn't clear, I want it up where the current battery icon is, not a widget.
I use battery indicator, it's free from the market and though it doen't show the percentage on top of the battery icon, it shows it to the left of the notification bar so it's always there no matter in what screen you are and occupies no desktop space.
Also, it shows some very useful, very well integrated info in the notification area when you pull it down including how long it's been unplugged, bettery health, temp and voltage.
In case it was any concern, it hasn't affected my battery life at all (i can still get about 3 days on mid-light use)
Hope u like it!!
Use the battery monitor already built in that goes into the notification bar.
Then bring the bar down and the percentage is there.
i've been trying out quite a bunch of modded roms for the past week, and I think I came accross one which indeed had percentage written in the small green battery icon at the top-right corner next to the time. Maybe try out the r1 cyanogen port from modaco.
Most modded roms use some kind of ugly donut icon, which isn't more precise than the stock battery looking icon.
However, i'm not actually sure if having percentage written in the icon changes much : i suppose there must be an equal number of pictures, whatever battery indicator design you choose.

Yep, I tried but could not see the percentage..?
I searched and didn't find anything about this. I've noticed the battery icon in the notification bar is pretty inaccurate, is there a way to have the actual percent displayed over it? Like in CM.
I'd post a pic, but the forum won't let me cause I'm a noob...
Pretty sure the stock battery icon can't be modified/removed. However BatteryIndicator will show another battery icon in the top left corner with the percentage remaining inside of it.
+1 for this

If by inaccurate you mean it shows 50% left on the indicator and less than 25% actual left, then you sir are correct.
I like battery status by Android Apps myself.
Ok so I tried to customized my home screen and so I have hidden the status bar cause 1) It's ugly, 2) I have battery status and signal strength on the home screen.
And then I realised that's some information were missing... So here come my idea, I'm gathering informations to make a "cal widget style" home screen notification widget.
That seem a good idea to me to display the usual notification directly in a widget but it doesn't seem easy to make at all.
If you have any advice, piece of code, warning or cute girl don't hesitate...
PS: sorry for the mistakes => french dude inside ^^
In passing

not 100% what you're looking for, but if you happen to use CM-based ROM, there's quite good solution here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1031607
