This is the last of piece of crap to lay here before I move on. I'll be putting the blackjack on the auction block.
This mortscript gets data from the registry and then writes to the owner/notes plugin for the homescreen. I also included a sliding panels xml with the notes plugin in it. You can copy the notes plugin part into any home.xml your using. If you put it in a sliding panel xml, then it has to replace the iconbar, no other option for placement.

I also included a place for custom text to be entered(last pic). To edit, open the customNotes.mscr in Notepad and where you see "Enter Custom Text Here", replace what you want inside the quotes. Save it and restart the customNotes.mscr(reboot).

This Needs Mortscript installed to work, I recommend version 4.11b7.

To Install:
1) Unzip and copy the home.xml file into \application data\home folder. The .mscr and .exe file can be placed anywhere in main memory. After placing, click on the mscr file to start up the loop.
2) Create a shortcut to the exe into \windows\startup\
3) Go to Settings\Display\Homescreen and choose the customNotes xml.

To Uninstall:
1) Delete shortcut in \windows\startup\
2) Choose a new layout xml in settings
3) Delete all three files

Note: I added a alternate battery percentage mscr below. If you don't get battery percentage to show, then download it, unzip, and copy over the original customNotes.mscr.

Hey, Showaco. I dread when these days come even though you more or less had an Excalibur in our minds. Please stay in contact. Also, PM the newest headset you are moving on too. Thank you for all your dedication & time spent fiddling with your mobile. It has let hundreds of people like myself make the most of there phones. I love modding and personalizing my mobile due to the fact of people like yourself. Being part of an underground modding community is something special. Wherever the road takes you no matter how frustrated you get with noobs, people are grateful. Others are due credit as well. I could name names....but you already should know who you are.

Thanks
Pfunk

I can't speak for all on the forum but i'm sure we all share the same opinion that you shall me missed, you have brought many mods and tweaks to the device we all love the Dash, even though you was an imposter :D My device would not be as loved as it is now without all the help and support you have provided over the last couple of months. Hope that this is just a break from the Dash forum and that you will still have your input in the tech we have all got so used to.
Good luck with the future i imagine you will be off to the kaiser forum :)

It looks for battery info here:
HKLM\Drivers\Builtin\Battery\BatteryPCT
Do you have this registry key?
