Root Battery Percentage Overlay

[xCirca]

No intentions of being redudant, however I ran a search didn't find any new info and I'v been banging my head. I'm farely noobish at root, and I'm currently just running straight up android 2.2 flashed with 3.21 unrEVOked, and everything is working great *cheers to them, great job* I'm just trying to replace my stock battery icon with a new one with percents. I didn't find anything on the forum, perhaps I'm blind.. but just figured I'd see if there was a way to do this yet without installing a rom. I tried one from another site and it put my phone into a force close frenzy and wouldn't load senseui (kept fc'ing) thus making my phone useless. MDA didn't do a nandroid backup, and I royally effed my phone and had to swap back to another incredible. so if anyone has any information, that'd be supa. thanks guys.

There are status bar replacements that work with some of the custom ROMs but you have to flash a deodexed ROM and you have to flash the ROM for just the status bar overlay.

start there to remove what you dont want. You can then load 1 of many battery widgets/apps that will add a bar with numbers if you want
