[CHT Widget] - Circle Battery Widget
The guys over at xda have been busy creating new widgets for cht. Here's an amazing new battery widget created by xda members rat & dunc. It has three layout options..one with just the circle showing, one with the value showing as 99%, and one with it showing as just 99 without the % symbol. They continue to impress me with showing the extended possibilities of cht!
More info can be found on the Application Thread HERE Rat and Dunc have been working on and off on this widget for about two months now and other projects just kept getting in the way! However, they just put the finishing touches to it so here it is! For those of you not familiar with the original Android widget it is basically a simple circle line which reduces around the circumference as your battery life reduces. We have added in a few nice extra touches too. When the charge drops below 30% the line changes to orange, and when it drops below 20% it changes red. If you let it go even further and the charge drops below 15% then the line will flash on and off. When you put it on charge you will get a rotating 'charging' animation until it reaches full charge when the circle will turn fully green whilst still plugged in. This will change back to white as soon as you take it off charge. It is all of this extra stuff that we have been working on getting right! The widget has three layout options - one with just the circle showing, one with the value showing as 99%, and one with it showing as just 99 without the % symbol. In addition to this you can also edit the text size and color through the registry. The default text size is 60, but you can vary it to anything between 10 and 120 and regardless of where you set it in that range the text will remain centred in the widget. As always the widget uses a unique font so you can replace it with your own font if you like. He used Sveningsson.ttf in the widget, renamed to duncCircleBatteryFont.ttf. So to use your own ttf font just rename it to duncCircleBattery.ttf and copy/paste/overwrite to \Windows on your phone. And if you want to skin the widget with your own images then they are all stored in \Windows and named duncCircleBattery_5.png and so on. There are 21 png images to skin including the FullyCharged one for 100% and still plugged in, plus the qtc image that is used for the charging animation which is 1EE18B98_manila. But if you are skinning don't think you have to stick with a circle, you could use any set of battery icons and just skin the charging qtc with a blank image so it doesn't show. So you could make an iPhone type skin, a straight line, anything! Enjoy Last edited by lnando84; 03-09-2011 at 01:18 AM. |

Re: [CHT Widget] - Circle Battery Widget
Here is a screencap of my home screen. I would like to get battery circle at least as small as the slacker icon maybe even a little smaller.

Re: [CHT Widget] - Circle Battery Widget
Here are a few battery widget skins I've been meaning to share. They're finally finished and ready to go. There are 5 different colors but a total of 6 battery skins. The "G,Y,R" battery is red from 5%-30%, yellow from 35%-60%, and then green 65%-fully charged. I also reduced the size of the "charging circle" so that it'll stay inside the battery. and then attached one speedometer skin as well. Hope everyone enjoys..
