Hi guys first post! Just got O2 XDA mini S and used hard reset to go to corporate settings but have now lost battery status which shows %age power left (I found it quite useful). Any ideas how to get it back?

Use some Today plugin, ie. iLauncher from SBSH.

And: does anyone know the program that will be able to show the estimated 'time to live' on the battery or ltime left to the next charging? I had something like this on my old motorola MPx200. It wasn't too acurate, but also quite useful.

Thanks in advance,
Radek

In the Windows folder on your phone, find a file called PowerTray and copy it to the StartUp folder in the Windows folder.

Voila!

Thanks bsterngillet I'd just found that elsewhere on the forum. It's not quite what I was looking for as I found the %age charge left useful - I know I can just click on it but I really am lazy :lol:

If you do find any more info please let me know.

You can use Batti, a small application shows ajustable bar
on top of screen and it is free...

I don't understand why people can't get the one that was there... back.

I mean, it was there!

Why not use Basic, then you get the battery bar, all the GPRS/MMS settings, etc. and performance is good.
:D

But not as good as corporate! Plus, it's just nice not to have ANY O2 rubbish on the phone ... except the splash screen (still working on it) and the logo on the casing (guess I'll have to live with that one)!
