DefyBatt & DefyLivepaper - Battery Widget & Livewallpaper for Defy scaling in 1% Step

---

I wrote a Battery Widget for the Defy scaling in 1% Steps.
It`s quite simple at the moment, but was just for me.
So, if someone wants to have it, here`s the download:

-More Colours

Version 1.2:
-Choose Size


Screenshot (Widget on left side middle): 58%

Now also as livewallpaper:

Link to apk:

or as qr:

I'll give it a shot. Any special way to install it?

No, just download. If Dropbox cuts the .apk you`ll have to add it manually.
Happened to some people on german forum. Install it like every other app.
Add as widget to homescreen.

Can you post a screenshot?

Thanks you.

It did drop the .apk extension. What a great widget. Thanks for making it small and unobtrusive!

It's just a tiny number with a % symbol. You can choose black or white text. It's smaller than the numbers in the status bar but not by much.

I did something similar, but as a notification instead of a widget. If anyone is interested: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1464041/MotoCharge.apk

How does it work? I mean, is the % real? Or does it estimate it, like Battery Left?

Edit: okay, I'll answer myself, you're using /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charge_counter. I didn't know about its existence! Great work! I wonder if we could modify the original Motorola APK to read that instead of /sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity, so we don't need any extra software, hmm...

Edit 2: I was curious and searched. There seem to be two places where "capacity" is used. They are in /xbin/ssmgrd and /bin/charge_only_mode, both binaries. Would it be possible to hex-edit the "capacity" string to "charge_counter"?

Edit 3: whoops, somebody already thought of this. I'll take the discussion there so I don't hijack your thread

Don't autoupdate, right? I loaded at 24%, looked the file and was 24. Some tests later, I looked the file again and was 22. It still at 24.

Thanks for it, it's a first step
