Is there any way to see the battery level in percentage? On my old t665c, all u had to do was click on the battery. I just got my NX today so its prob. a really NOOB problem, but thanx.

There are a bunch of different apps, but I'm currently using zLauncher version 3.11. This menu interface app has a percentage memory meter built-in for the battery.

:confused: I don't get it because on the default launcher, if I click on the battery symbol I get a little window showing the battery stats (percentage) and the free space on the handheld.

I use ZLauncher too, but I wouldn't buy it just because of it's battery percentage meter. Other launchers weigh less in kilobytes and do the same job, for that matter. :D

I know that I can switch the Classic style and an above post mentions -- there's no way to get the battery percentage in the Sony launcher?

Come on! you can easily tell by looking at it!

[(+/-) 10% of margin of error, if not less.]

Besides, all you need to know is if its below 25%

:D

The battery percentage doesn't show up in the Clie Launcher view on the NX, only in the standard view.

In fact, yeah, I've just done it, for free. It's a terribly simple little app; all it does is tell you your current percentage, voltage, and whether you're plugged in, and it only checks when you run it (i.e. it doesn't update), but it took no time to do. (Meaning I really did do it between writing the first and second paragraph here and the form didn't time out! :D )

To get it right-click and save this link as battery.prc (http://www.kittycentral.net/battery.prc)

filez you can get on palmgear has a percentage under info and under the battery tab, I don't use it for the battery percentage but for managing the files that are hidden, check it out
