Is there a way for me to include the batterybar in my ROM, but without the need of an app?

Like even the mod version, you need an app to control everything. How can I ONLY change certain smalis and stuff and customise the options (colour, height etc) without using an app?

Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] LfcFan1977:
D'oh of course, I'm feeling quite noobish now :o

Brilliant though, that would be nice.

Yeah, the [App] does have very little (no real noticable) impact on battery life/performance but as you say, it is a running service and I prefer to cut them out where I can.

If you have the time then I would be very interested aswell, especially the selectable option.

Have search around but not quite found something that fits with a AOSP 2.3.5 rom. Hopefully another one of your nicely writen [TUT]'s would help.

Not a big problem though, I could always edit the stat_sys_battery.xml's to show only a couple of images like a football club crest or carrier logo instead of battery stats.

Just out interest, because you are using smali code for the bar and the gradients sound challenging, is it not possible, more difficult or a lot more work to use custom images in framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi instead?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pvyParts:
ROFL no way i coded it all in java just put it in smali for you guys to use easily. :D

i will add a small tut to how i hide the icons only prob is it changes slightly on every rom :D but the process and code is the same. :)

also i am testing a no app version and am just modding the code to make it easier to set the options either by a config file, or by falling back on defaults you can set in smali. all in all there will be about 4 or 5 ways to use it in future.

pvy,

the app works really well! the memory management is excellent compared to the other app available. Any chance of adding an option to show all colors at once? Like green, orange, and red if the battery if full or whatever. At 40% it would only show orange and red etc. I hope that makes sense? It would make it nice and colorful. Thanks for such a great app!

Doesn't really matter but in the 'Ábout Battery Bar' section it says the application is v1.3 instead of v1.5.

Holy crap, thank you!!!! I have been missing this feature since I left MIUI for ICS, and now I've got it back, even better than before. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

And now, a request. :) Would it be possible for you to allow users to save different config profiles? THANK YOU!

Hi Pvy, I know it's only been like 12 hours, but I am still just over the moon about this app. But now I've been thinking about it alot, and I'm wondering... Would it be possible to have a function that causes it to disappear (or perhaps switch profiles?) on full-screen apps? Or maybe a toggle that causes it to only appear:

A. Always,

B. Only when Notification Bar is Visible, or

C. Only on User-Selectable Apps, (with a De/Select-All function.)

Just cuz sometimes I actually don't want it visible when playing some games or watching some videos, y'know? I imagine that might be a bit trickier to code, but who knows??? Figured it was worth asking.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Southrice:
First off, AWESOME APP, bravo! Second off, FREE? Insane, I'd pay for this app in a heartbeat.

And kjdiehl he read my mind, great suggestions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pvyParts:
nothing hidden :D middle image has a height of 38 and a high/low transparency (20% - 30% ish i think) :D ;) EASY :D

i am looking into hiding it on full screen apps.

Pvy.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Never thought of making it the whole height of the statusbar and transparent LOL Looks really good like that!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Southrice:
haha yeah, figured that out like 2 minutes after i posted that, thanks!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Moricon:
How do you set the transparency? That's cool. Thanks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vultureman:
If we have MIUI, but want the color changing taskbar features, how should we set the settings in MIUI for it to work right? Currently it's just a solid white 1px line at the top, and setting the height to 38/40 just blocks out everything on my bar.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ZeroManArmy:
It's on the left side of color choosing. Bottom of the middle tab.

Looks good until I play a game and I have the status bar overhead.

A suggestion? What about choosing a height for specific apps? Like I open Angry Birds and the bars height goes from 38 to 1. Then when I leave angry birds it goes back to 38 until I go into a app that changes the height? Could be implemented into the update your working on now.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pvyParts:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Moguledyouth:
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I have been looking for this functionality since my days on WinMo!

I do have one minor oddity, I have the highest charged color set to ICS blue and it works great in portrait. However if I rotate the screen to landscape, the color changes to more of a blue green. I am running the auto color switch, is this because of the length difference from portrait to landscape? I'm on a Sprint Photon 4G with CM7.2.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pvyParts:
Well guys and gals The app hit top 10 hottest on app brain! So thanks for all your support!

Hmmm interesting. Are you able to get screen shots.

And does it do it if you rotate the other way.

It could be few things.

It could also be colour bleed on your screen.

Either way some screen shots will tell us quick smart. :-D

Yeah maybe later. ;) I love free stuff. ;)

Since I got rid of my HTC Evo I no longer have an official miui release with a working battery bar. This was one of my long time favorite features of miui rom. Thanks for making this. I will forever use it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] aetern1ty:
It would be awesome if you could make the bar shrink from the outsides into the middle as well.

Ohhhhh, man, I can't wait!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Mikerm:
I would like a "black list" feature: Battery Bar would hide when any app in that list is in the foreground.

Expanding that idea, users could create profiles. For example:

- 1st profile: Bar height 10, Align Top, Static colour, ..., selected apps

- 2nd profile: Disabled, ..., selected apps

- ...

- Last profile: Bar height 5, Align Bottom, Dinamic colour, ..., all apps not in previous profiles.

Last and less important idea: "Align to Top phone".

When "Top of screen" is selected and I rotate the phone to landscape mode, Battery Bar moves to new "top" position (right side of phone). I would like it don't move.

P.S: Great app!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] pvyParts:
we will look into adding Profiles. or something.

but it will not be in the next version :D lol. As it is a rather major addition.

as a side note i also don't know what affect that will have on the "lightness" of the app.

So you actually want it to move ;) i'll see what we can do. but i don't move it when the screen rotates android moves it (auto-magically) ;) we just increase the size to match :D

And thanks for the feedback!

also 20k downloads on the market O_O wow... just wow...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] IvanNCase:
Thanks pvyParts for this the app works great and I'm looking forward to trying the mod. Couple of requests though first would it be possible to add signal strength to this. It would be nice to have say battery go from the left side to the middle and signal from right to the middle. I think that would look great with some of the center clock mods. The other request would be to change the app in the market to let you download it on a phone with a custom dpi. Its not a biggy I just had to switch it reboot download switch and reboot again but it'd be nice to not have to do that.

Hi all, I have a question today.

I have copied my bought apps from my s8500 by sTunes to my C:\ .

Now I have the files. How can i install them on my S8600?

Is there any tool to do this?

The reason for this is simple. My old downloadlist from s8500 is noT valid anymore on the s8600. I tryed it my Kies, the apps are listed, but there is no way to download qoomouse and Plants vs Zomies again. The DOWNLOAD-Buttons stay grey and FruitNinja for the S8600, is not released yet.

Thank you 4 help :)

Crying Samsung AND crying Devs result in less support = no new Apps... :)

Then we all cry. :(

Das mit dem App Store ist so NICHT im Sinne des Erfinders... egal. Selbst wenn die Dinger alle zum 0 Tarif sind...

Samsung arbeitet oder hat eventuell irgendwas mit Kies etc. dran gemacht, oder wird dran machen... oder wende Dich an Samsung. ;)

---------- Post added at 04:19 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:00 PM ----------

Try new Kies... maybe try also new feature...

Read here...

http://www.bada-blog.de/

Apps licensee is for 1 device (IMEI)...

You have 2 devices, then you need 2 license...

And btw...

S8600 is very new... most of us never seen S8600 in store...

So support is very rare...

Correction: Apps can be transferred to New Device by Samsung

I have to correct this mistaken assumption.

If you have downloaded apps thru KIES and installed them on your

wave 8500 but now want to transfer them to your spanking new wave 8600

Just write to samsung via their my Q&A in kies which will lead you their support page.

Inform them that you have purchased a new device in your case a wave 8600

then give them the IMEI of your old bada device the wave 8500 then

the IMEI of your new wave 8600. Request them to allow transfer of your old apps to your new device. It will take them 5 working days to fulfill your request.

How do i know this? I have transferred my paid apps from an old wave 8500 to another wave 8500 and this is what they asked me the imei numbers of both devices and they worked on it for five days then i was able to transfer my apps to the new wave 8500.

Of course those apps wont work anymore on the old wave 8500 i had.
[Bada Software and Hacking General] mylove90:
i think this is not the same case right here

he want the apps for both phones as i think

also S8600 got very few apps so not all current S8500 apps will work on S8600

Best Regards
[Bada Software and Hacking General] bong4316:
Just like you said, You just think thats what he said.

@mylove09

But you aren't sure that's what he is saying.

Sometimes its better not to read more than what a person is saying.

I would understand if english is not your native language as i sometimes make the same mistake with written spanish, in trying to understand spanish i sometimes make assumptions about what the person is saying, when actually he he meant only exactly what he is saying.

Simply put, he is asking help to transfer his apps in kies to the new wave 8600 but he doesnt know his apps have been registered with his wave 8500's IMEI.

So i told him he can transfer his old apps to his wave 8600 by asking samsung to do it for him like i did with my two wave 8500s.

Granted its true that not all of his apps like plants vs zombies etc will work with the wave 8600 because his wave 8600 is using bada 2 and an adreno 205 and not a powervr sgx540 but im confident that future updates will happen to make those apps compatible.

sorry.. I want to sell my 8500 because i don't need it anymore..

So if the IMEI is used as license for bought apps, it will be a little bit ****ty for me..

He or she must spend money for an app, that is already bought. And I have to buy the app again.. wtf

[Bada Software and Hacking General] -creez-:
SAMSUNG -.-...

Okay a part of the transfer worked.. And the other half didn't.

The trashapps and qoo mouse where transfert, but fruit ninja and pvz not.

I bought pvz again for 2,99€, wasted money i think.

Now there is only fruit ninja left.. before the transfer, I was able to install it on my S8500 and now, no more. Not on 8600 and not on 8500. Back to my old question without the thoght to spoof:

Is there a posibility to install the backuped files from the old phone? Im really grrrrr now :eek:

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] juiceppc:
I know there are "issues" with the screen on the Note but I just want to verify what I'm seeing. I'm totally fine with any color distortion at angles and not pure whites but this is bothersome. Maybe someone else can test. If you open the video maker app(more noticeable here) and just stare at the screen does it pulsate from normal to a green'ish hue every couple seconds? Mine does and it's quite annoying. Is there a fix for this? Does 2.3.6 fix this? Am I crazy? I've disabled all auto brightness and power saving brightness settings and rebooted.

I ordered from Amazon in the U.S. from Global Mobiles but I got a German version. I have a feeling doing an exchange is going to be a NIGHTMARE and I might get the same results or worse. Has Samsung acknowledged this? Any custom ROMS fix this? Personally I don't think it's hardware as some apps/screens do not exhibit this problem. When I do the *#0*# I don't see it there... ::sigh::
