5% or 1% drivers for CF03 6.1 roms?

I've been trying to use the zionlite battery drivers with the CF03 6.1 rom, and they don't seem to be working. Are there any other battery drivers out there that work for CF03 6.1?

Hmmm, now it seems the 1% driver is working. I think I was just missing the certs.cab step.

how do you know if it works or not?

The battery is reading in 1% increments on my S2u2 and Mobile Shell icons. The 5% is working as well, i just tried it out.

I've tried both on Adrynalyne's 3.0 6.5 Vanilla ROM and both work, displaying in 1% and 5% increments but battery drain was significant,at least for me. I had to revert back to the standard driver. They both worked fine for me when I was running Adrynalyne's 6.1 CC20 based ROM. Neither driver caused any noticeable battery drain on that ROM.

I love Adrynalynes 6.5 Vanilla 3.0 ROM, however I do regret going to it from his 6.1 CC20 based ROM. I had very good GPS performance AND 1% battery incriments (with no battery drain) with that ROM. I was very hesitant to reflash to the newer CF03 based ROM but made a leap of faith thinking that the improvements would be worth it. I personally don't see any GPS perfomance increases with the CF03 ROM and now I have to live with 20% battery increments

.

Oops, just realized you asked about the drivers for CF03 6.1 ROMS, not 6.5

(I don't know if my battery drain issue was related to the CF03 update or going from 6.1 to 6.5)

I have begun using the 5% battery driver on BlazingWolf's 6.5 ROM (1.2) and really like the improved accuracy with both Batti and Mobile Shell 3's battery indicators.

I had heard about the battery drain (especially the 1% driver), but after a couple of days the battery drain doesn't seem worse than usual (it wasn't great to start with).

After trying to figure out the battery problem, I reinstalled S2u2 and found my battery was great! I stopped using the default windows lock.

Turn off the default locker and your battery life should increase again. The was not the case with CC20 but it is with cf03.
