Battery % in place of Icon... Working in 1.1.0 in color - Page 3

lilmexx323 · 07:57 AM

I too get the patch not found. I guess I may try the VI method.... Anyone have any ideas on the patch? Maybe I didn't set patching up or something..lol. I haven't applied a patch up to this point.. Plenty of VI mods, but no patches...

That text file is a mess.... lol. I will have to sort thru it later and see what I can do..

Ah ok, I thought you guys were saying wget wasn't properly downloading the file. You are saying the patch command is missing... You need to setup ipkg-opt and then install patch with ipkg-opt install patch... Then you will be able to use the patch.

lilmexx323 · 07/23/2009, 08:44 AM

I just used the code from the first page and of course got the old style with no percentage... I guess I will have to figure out the patch stuff, so I can have that as an option.. I guess, I will have to move my backup files back over and try to get the patch to work...

Quick question... I made a copy of the unmodified files on the internal media... To get those back to the phone should I copy or move those back.. I guess copy, so that way I still have the backup in the internal media drive??? Does that sound right?

This is what I used and it worked flawlessly:

patch -p0 -i  pre_battery_percentage.diff
/sbin/initctl stop LunaSysMgr && /sbin/initctl start LunaSysMgr

This will patch it successfully (I've tested it).

Thanks again!!!!

I cant get the patch to work whever I try. Is there anyway you can show the line changes, like the link does on your first attempt. I can then change it in VI... I will try and see if I can get this patch thing working, but as of now... no go!!

Or,

What can I open the .diff file in that wont be so jumbled. I added a .txt extension to it and it opens in notepad, but is crazy looking.

nesl247 · 07/23/2009, 01:28 PM

lilmexx, you need to setup ipkg-opt and install patch with it (ipkg-opt install patch). Then you can use the commands I gave you and it will work.

If you want to do it by hand, open the diff in wordpad, it understands the formatting properly. (difference between linux/windows return style)

lilmexx323 · 07/23/2009, 03:13 PM

I just did it by hand. Thanks for the wordpad tip. I tried notepad and word and neither looked right and would have taken forever to decode.lol. It worked good. I have the percentage and all...Good work..

Jtemple33 · 07/23/2009, 06:11 PM

hmm. i can't seem to get it to work with the patch

can anyone teach me how to do it via the vi

Webby_s · 07/23/2009, 06:23 PM

Which patch? The original were you copy/paste the file or the wget path?

Jtemple33 · 07/23/2009, 06:25 PM

the wget path does not work for me.
and i was wondering how you do the copy and paste the text file using vi

Webby_s · 07/23/2009, 06:54 PM

I see.

Well I did this: Setting_up_optware line by line then I did the ipkg-opt update and ipkg-opt install patch.

Then I did the wget/patch

Don't know if the optware thing is what you need but I did it to my wifes phone before I did the wget and everything is working great.

Try that and report back.

Jtemple33 · 07/23/2009, 07:08 PM

hmm. will this even still work after 1.1?

FuManChuu · 07/23/2009, 08:30 PM

as soon as my phone boots 1.1, im going for it O_o

lilmexx323 · 07/23/2009, 08:38 PM

After the 1.1 reboot back to the battery icon.. So the update wipes the fix.. I guess I will have to retype all in the morn.. I knew I should have saved my modified file...lol I guess I am gonna have to my make backups of all my mod files for after updates..

FuManChuu · 07/23/2009, 08:40 PM

the wget and patch method above works in 1.1.

Much win in this thread

Webby_s · 07/23/2009, 09:14 PM

Sweet... Thank you FuManChuu, I was going to try doing this to my wifes phone but I appreciate you doing it first!!!

Webby_s · 07/23/2009, 10:07 PM

Here is verification that it still does work... All I had to do was apply the patch:

Code:

patch -p0 -i  pre_battery_percentage.diff
/sbin/initctl stop LunaSysMgr && /sbin/initctl start LunaSysMgr

Because if you have already done the wget it states file already exists.

Also a pic to varify (cause I know ppl will ask)

**mamouton** · 07/23/2009, 10:15 PM

Did anyone notice when it gets below 10 percent it shows the number percent sign and number 2 ie.. 7%2

Webby_s · 07/23/2009, 10:18 PM

I try not and let my Pre get that low!

lol

nesl247 · 07/23/2009, 10:18 PM

I'll let my phone drain down so I can see this.. I haven't had my phone down because I've had it plugged in so I could use novaterm.. Do you have a screenshot by any chance?

Any yes I know that when it's at 100% it doesn't show the %. I can't seem to fix that. No matter what I do, it won't show. If I replace % with any letter, it shows that, but % won't. It could be that it's something I'm missing, since I have no knowledge of javascript, so if anyone knows, please enlighten.
