battery icon post JB, anyone else noticed this?

When the battery gets to 90% the battery icon drops two steps.

Whereas before JB it would just empty the little notch at the end of the battery, now it emptys that and some more, it looks more like 85%.

Or is it just my phone lol?

Yes, it does that since JB. And i think it also stays on green longer, whereas before it would turn yellow around the 20 or 25% mark (not sure anymore). It also turns red only once you hit 5%, I think.

Not a biggie for me as I use GSam indicator in notification bar, and tend to ignore the stock battery icon.

Mine turns yellow at 20pc same as before.

Can't you change how/when it turns yellow in the power saver menu?
