Excellent! Is it still OK to include it in our ROM? Any news yet on adding the charging animation as per original MIUI bar? Thanks again for this great little mod/app
Oh and sorry yeah feel free to use where ever
And thanks for the kind words guys
Pvy,
This battery bar don't replace the status bar... Is like the battery bar in MIUI's ROM... This small white bar is the bar that indicate your battery level... And is white cz you don't change the color...

Thanks for this app, it's really what I was looking for!
I also like the idea of having the bar a little thinner then the lowest currently available.
Is it possible to throw in a feature request, if so, then it would be good to be able to specify the height of where it appears on the screen, eg. say if it's set to 20 then it would located under the status bar, if it's set to 1 it would be on top of the screen, if it's set to 100, it would be on the bottom of the screen etc.

i'll add in an offset to move it x away from either the top or bottom ( if i can should be able to )

Screen Shots
Change Log

How To!
Ok so there are 2 files attached
First is a Zip with the files needed to add to the SystemUI.apk (THIS IS NOT FLASHABLE)
Second is an the Settings app for the Battery Bar.
-Step 5
Recompile the apk however you normaly would (there are so many ways i wont cover this here)
then push it to your phone and reboot.
If you don't know how or are having issues this is how I do it!
Notes:
a. i have a file on my desctop that i edit this is a copy of the file pulled from my phone.
Steps:
1. after all mods are done open up apk manager
2. type 22 hit enter and pick the file you were editing ( SystemUI.apk )
3. type 11 hit enter and the app will recompile.
- 4. Open a copy of the SystemUI.apk ( see note a ) in winnra or 7zip ect put that window on one side of your screen ( windows 7 snap too (windows key + -> or <- ) is awesome for this )
5. Navigate to the projects folder of APK Manager and then navigate to the app you edited (SystemUI.apk)
6. Navigate to the /build/apk folder ( snap this to the other side of your screen ) ( Note that the build/apk folder has the same structure as the apk file open in winnra / 7zip )
7. for THIS MOD only! you will need these files simply drag the 2 files listed below into the same folder location in the open apk in winnra / 7zip
- /res/layouts/status_bar.xml
- /classes.dex
8. Push the apk that you draged the files into to your phone with adb like this
adb push [where ever your apk is]/SystemUI.apk system/app/SystemUI.apk
adb shell chmod 0644 system/app/SystemUI.apk
9. whilst you have adb up reboot
adb reboot
+ 4. Open a copy of the SystemUI.apk ( see note a ) in winnra or 7zip ect put that window on one side of your screen ( windows 7 snap too (windows key + -> or
- 10. Proceed to next step
Thats it ( I think )!
all i ask is you don't modify the about section of the app if you choose to use it! and give credits where credits due. feel free to change my dodgy icon and if anyone has a better one i will also put the sources for the settings app up on my git when i get git back up ( and when i tidy up and add comments ) and running in the next few days so that those of you running on source versions can cook it in from scratch. ( i don't think i need to explain how to do that if you are compiling sources i think you'll know what to do )
Vissit My Git to have a Look
with some help i can probably port this to older android versions (<2.3) as needed but i dont have access to a rom to test it on currently. so if you can help me there let me know
Hope you found this helpfull! Let me know if this is not clear enough!

19[APP] or [MOD] Battery Bar for All ROMs - Updated 16/1/12
Hiding the battery Icons on your beloved ROM's
tested on 2.3.* ROMS (Stock ROMS, AOSP, CM, MIUI) may sork on others aswell but 2.2 and below have a different process.
for anyone who understands this stuff a bit this code here is what i edited for our TEAM ROM. this is hiding with an option from an app that sets a "global" setting.
look in the statusbarpolicy.smali
i commented the part with "hide battery icon";
For everyone else what you will need to do is,
1. Decompile your SystemUI.apk
2. Open /smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/StatusBarPolicy.smali
3. Find the UpdateBattery function.
this can be a long way down.
just do a search for "battery" and you will find it eventually.
Option A - Lock out the battery icon forever!
basicaly to perma hide the icon add this to the start of the update battery function after the bit that looks like this.
Code:Code:.locals 12 .parameter "intent" .prologue
add this!
Code:Code:iget-object v1, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/StatusBarPolicy;->mService:Landroid/app/StatusBarManager; const-string v2, "battery" const v0, 0x0 invoke-virtual {v1, v2, v0}, Landroid/app/StatusBarManager;->setIconVisibility(Ljava/lang/String;Z)V return-void
then recompile and push back to phone.
that will perma hide the battery icon
Option B - Make it optional! ( my preferred way of doing things )
basically the same process but with different code and an app to set the settings.
i will add this soon and i will put the option to toggle into the BatteryBar settings app.
