[MOD] Battery percentage MOD Tool for Android 4.3

I would if I could but I'm too dumb to do it myself.
I have to find why it does that yet, after that figure out how to prevent that lol :silly:
There is a bug in the application, it won't replace the following images with the modded ones:
stat_sys_battery_0.png, stat_sys_battery_15.png, stat_sys_battery_28.png, stat_sys_battery_43.png, stat_sys_battery_57.png, stat_sys_battery_71.png, stat_sys_battery_85.png, stat_sys_battery_100.png
Neither the corresponding to the charging animation.
More info: The problem is located when you update the zip file files with 7za -u, looks like the files mentioned before got created with the solid option turned on and therefore cant be updated.

I solved the problem I mentioned before by myself, I updated the files inside the APK manually with 7Zip and now I get correct 0-100% animations.
Nice catch. I was wondering why once in awhile my modded icon reverted back to the stock icon. I too will have to find the missing PNGs.
The problem is not the PNGs, the problem is that during the APK creation, the tool can't copy the modded files for that percentages, so in the APK you install (you can check with 7Zip under res folder, xhdpi) the icons are the stock ones. To fix it, you just need to open the APK with 7Zip, navigate to the res folder, drawable-xhdpi, and drag and drop the files for that percentages, or just drop the entire set (204) and close 7Zip, you can then get the apk into the zip file and flash it right away.
If thats too complicated I can do it for you if you provide me the icon set you want meanwhile the autor fix it.
I got a SystemUI forced close error everytime, and I only could fix it by restoring a previous copy of SystemUI.apk through adb. Stock rom 4.2.1

Do not use the generated zip, use the one attached to the first post, and drop the apk inside the system/app/ folder. Flash that zip :good:
If you need help just poke me.
Does this mean we should manually copy the SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi files to somewhere else in the APK? I'm not understanding this instruction.
I used the .bat inside the zip I downloaded, with my own SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk to generate the mod. Then I pushed the new SystemUI.apk to my device's system/app folder, restarted and the error started.

Now I get "A SD Card is needed" (or something similar) error when trying to flash the zip through CWM, and installation is aborted.

The battery icon ends up being a little small for my settings. Any way I could get it to be bigger?
Anybody else know what OP meant here? I would also like to know how to make the icons appear the same size as the clock and radio.
So you're saying the battery icon images in \Battery_Mod_Tool_for_Android_4.2.1\Image Resources\ are HDPI?
If so, do you know where to find XHDPI images for the icon packs you've included in the tool?

53So, since there wore many requests for the battery percentage mods, I've ported this MOD Tool so that its now working with Android 4.3.
Download the zip file, read the instructions.txt file, follow the instructions and be happy.
Included are 18 different battery styles. Some can be found here.
When the new Android build gets released, I'll update the tool.
If you can't flash it using the MOD Tools own flash zip, then take the SystemUI.apk from the Output Files/Modded Apk folder and drop it in the attached Battery MOD Flasher zip in the system/app folder. Flash it in the recovery.
EDIT: Added the Battery.percentage.modifier. Once you have modded the SystemUI with the mod tool and you want easily to change the battery icons, just drop the 204 png's in the BM.Battery.percentage.modifier.zip\vrtheme\system\app\SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi folder and flash the zip in the recovery.
Download Battery MOD Tool for Android 4.325Here we go, attached are again 4 flashable zip's for the Nexus 4 unmodified Stock ROM 4.2.2 (JDQ39). If anybody wants other images from the image resources just tell me.
Always keep a backup of SystemUI.apk (and SystemUI.odex; located in /system/app/), you might need those for future OTA updates and of course in case something goes wrong.14
Works perfectly, thanks. I made the following 4 flashable zip's for the Nexus 4 unmodified Stock ROM 4.2.1 (JOP40D) for the lazy ones.
Edit 2:
The zip's are perfectly working now, thanks to floepie!7Just tested, using OP's tools, follow ygvuhb's step and floepie's adjustment
This method works on 4.2.2 too
GREAT

Here is the flashable zip i created with the help of brainmasters great tool and Hung0702s generated PNGs.
I flashed it with RomManager -> "Flash Rom from SDcard" and it worked just fine - no bootloops or anything.
As you can see in the screenshot, the size matches the other icons and looks great.
I used the SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk from my device, which has the stock JellyBean 4.2.1 JOP40D Build installed.
Have fun with it!
The Icons in the "Quick-Settings-Menu" (swipe down with two fingers) are not altered!
