low battery icon threshold %

[dani31]

The "low batt" icon kicks in too quick in my rom. In fact I never get to see 1 bar of power, it goes from 2 bars to "low batt" directly.

I want to change the power threshold for the "low batt" icon to 10%. Is it done in the registry or is hard coded in dlls?

Many thanks!

I just browsed through the registry and found this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Power

The key contains the different states of the battery and the percentage levels. Change the values to alter the behaviour of the battery icon.

Good luck!

good find...
I think it controls the bars displayed in the main battery icon, but I still cannot control when the normal 3-bar icon changes into the red "critical batt" icon, currently set at 40%.

searching the forum I came upon this thread, I'll try and ask over there:
