JWR66V has been updated to JWR66Y. Do these themes work as is or is it best to wait for an update?
Yep, always wait for an update.
I've not updated my N7 to JWR66Y yet, but when I do, I'll release an update to this mod.
JWR66V has been updated to JWR66Y. Do these themes work as is or is it best to wait for an update?
Yep, always wait for an update.
Re-applied this mod on top of freshly-flashed JWR66Y deodexed, and it works... Note that I didn't update through OTA, but through a flashable zip from another thread here.
Mine always stops at 57 percent.
Even if battery is down to under 50 percent.
The stock battery on the Nexus 7 only changes icons at 0%, 15%, 28%, 43%, 57%, 71%, 85% & 100% charge so I've modified it so that there are now icons for every 1% and they're also animated when the device is charging.
To do this, I made two sets of Base VRThemes which modify SystemUI.apk:
The first set are Base Statusbar Battery VRThemes which change just the statusbar battery icons and contain a modified res\drawable\stat_sys_battery.xml, a modified res\drawable\stat_sys_battery_charge.xml, the 202 1% statusbar battery icons in res\drawable-hdpi & larger versions of thes icons in res\drawable-sw720dp-hdpi for tablet mode users and a modified resources.arsc
They're simple xml files which replace the ones in SystemUI.apk/res/drawableHi Spannaa, and thanks for posting these themes!!
I have a specific question about the stat_sys_battery.xml and stat_sys_battery_charge.xml ... are these binary files? I wanted to learn how these transitions work so I could make a few modifications of my own. Could you direct me to the source code for these? Is it based on AOKP stat_sys files? Would be much obliged for some direction.
Thanks!

I've zipped and attached the decompiled versions below so that you can read their contents.
That'll depend on whether or not I upgrade to stock KitKat or flash a modified version.Good evening, Spannaa. You will be doing batterymod for KitKat?
Aren't they (and the two xml files) now in framework-res.apk for KitKat?Many will be very glad if somebody can finally made battery mods like these here to work on KitKat. I haven't actually seen one here in xda and anywhere. I checked the SystemUI of my Nexus 4 and cannot find the usual stat_sys_battery/charge xmls inside and the png images are not there anymore as well. Could be hard-coded or something now, not sure
Aren't they (and the two xml files) now in framework-res.apk for KitKat?
yup but previously in JB and lower, both got those 2 xmls but we only mod on the SystemUI side for battery images
though actually I still tried that one as well (out of curiosity), but the mod on the framework I made just bootlooped on my Nexus 4 so I am presuming it must have been still in the SystemUI or somewhere(but I can't find any clue) LoL
I've built a VRTheme template that works on Android 4.4 and am making a VRTheme that will change the icons, clock & battery colour to ICS Blue to go with this apk
I'll post it in a new thread once I've finished testing it
Hi,
Any chance someone could repost the following files please?
Stock 4.3 JWR66V Wi-Fi HyDrOG3N Base Battery VRTheme
Stock 4.3 JWR66V Wi-Fi Stock Statusbar Pulldown Base Battery VRTheme
The links in the OP are dead and after using other ROMS I find that 4.3 JWR66V is the best for the Nexus 7.
Thanks in advance.
Hey bro, you should really make a tutorial for this, I would really like to make a Beautiful Battery theme.
All I really need to know is what files to make and how to complile the flashable zip.
