what do you use?

i got tired of GSAM having an extra battery number on the left in the notifications area so i d/l a free on by some russian or middle eastern dude..and its 'ok' but it doesnt work on my lockscreen and seems a bit hacky.

anyone have a battery overlay with a number that works decent?

I don't really know what you are asking, but I think Gravity Box through xposed allows changes to the status bar

If you had a shitty S5, you would



Left my M7 at home, so not sure what that setting would have been

you turn it on. my point is that i had it on to see battery percent at all times but hated it lives on the left side of the menu bar.

With that app you won't see the percentage at all times. You'll only see it when the battery gets low.

I can't grab a pic at the moment but there's an option to have the battery percent display in notification area all the time.

I used to use that to see my actual percentage but didn't like it since I already had a battery indicator on the right that should do the same thing.

That's the same issue as gsam. It puts the battery percent over on the left.

What phone do you have? Just turn off one of them. I turned my phone and GSAM icon and left my custom ROM up. Out of 3 possible, I only have one up.
