Default [Q] How to get current battery level?

Hi,
Do you guys know if battery icon next to the clock can show current battery level in %? I was wondering if that is possible, it was it in windows mobile.

Regards,

I use Battery Indicator Pro for that. Adds another icon in notification area showing %. Remember that MS will not report anything other than 10% increments.

It does. I just bought it and tested and it works.

How accurate it is I do not know.

To get battery percentage in the battery icon, you have to edit the framework. I don't know how that works, but I do know it's related to the framework.

Specific themes have the percentage in the battery icon.

yes I know that, I've tried to do it with uot kitchen but after restart, I've got closing apps errors. Even with argent2stone rom
I think it's because ms2 give ranges by 10% and uot gives all percents.

sorry for my english

Motocharge is quite nice. Is it possible to disable original battery indicator?
