[APP] Battery and Dock Widget [v1.1.1] 2011-06-13

[mike5065]

Rebooting did not help, still no widget. App is in manage apps list, looks ok, just no widget. I'm on leaked 3.1.

I simply removed my TF from the dock and it appeared. No reboot.

Thanks for the source beeone42!

I have taken it upon myself to style up a new battery for you. A preview should be attached to my post here.

Couple of things to note:

- I've kept my icon(s) the same dimensions as yours to minimize changes on your end
- The charge icon would only be there if charging (obviously)
- The cells inside the battery can be multi-coloured as they are now, or I could make one with all green (different shades/gradients for each level)
- Actual battery container is from Oxygen Team

Anyways, let me know what you think and if you'd like me to continue and prepare/replace all of your current images, then send them back.

Hope you like, and thanks again for this great widget!

Nice!
Notice that the widget does not seem to align to center cross hairs as the rest of the app shortcuts. Not sure if this is something to do with honeycomb treating of app and widget alignment or not.

Awesome job! Working perfectly on stock 3.1

Any plans for larger sizes?

Those battery icons are great.

Would be nice to have 1 in multicolor, and then some color gradient options to match themes (red, blue, green, pink for the ladies, etc).

thanks for your work, it looks great

i'm working on adding a settings page, where it will be possible to choose the look of the widget, and i would be very please to include your work

- The cells inside the battery can be multi-coloured as they are now, or I could make one with all green (different shades/gradients for each level)

i have asked myself the same when i did my poor design. i think both are nice, maybe the unique color (all green for full, then all yellow, etc...) is easier to read.

so you can do your second proposition... or both if you have a lot of time to waste

this is a known issue with custom kernels, same problem with text version of the widget:

fix: idk, i need to try prime 1.4 to see what happen.

i don't answer you to try a retail kernel because i don't know what will happen to your rom...

Works fine for me with Prime 1.4

Thanks for looking into this! Really a great idea!

BTW....I am on Prime 1.4 and using the Clemsyn-Blades kernel...

Yep that is my setup as well forgot to mention I was on a custom kernel. Hopefully it will get worked out soon.

I had the same No-Dock problem, but just re-flashed the stock ROM. The custom kernel wasn't worth not having the dock level.

Hi Araf,

Glad you like where I'm headed with this Unfortunately, I have not modded any .APKs yet, as this was just a mockup for beeone42's project. I will get my ass in gear soon and send him over the final images, at which point he can incorporate them into the project, and hopefully release a new version.

@beeone42, I hear you about the non-rainbow version (I don't really like it either). I am thinking of making a few diff colour schemes, each with the same colour, different saturation/brightness. I.E. for high --> low battery levels, we'd have a bright --> dark green one, bright --> dark blue one, etc., so that users can pick which they like best and still know the battery level.

If things go smoothly after that, maybe I can help with the actual styling of text in the widget, etc.. as I must warn you I am not a good developer of java code, but more a front-end designer.

Anyways, I'll see what I can whip up over the weekend and surely let you know. BTW, do you prefer to keep the same format of images as your current v1.0.1 source, or should I make a battery 'shell', and separate single images for each colour gradient 'inner cell'? I'm thinking at this point it might be best to just keep the same image format as is now. Maybe the Settings page could let us choose which colour to use too (once I send you all colour versions).

Cheers!

Might be worth contacting the kernel dev's and see if they can incorporate the relevant parts from the stock Asus kernel back into theirs.
Hopefully once Asus release their kernel source a new OC version will be released which has this as standard.

i have this problem with dock: everytime i close the transformer on its keyboard dock, the next time i open, both apps (the rudimentary one and this one) fail to show a %, and it can only be corrected by a undock/dock .
any ideas?
