Make your battery meter go by 1% instead of 10%
courtesy of no2chem and stroths on PPCgeeks. Just install the 2 cabs, the cert one first, and then soft reset.
It works on the Touch i tested it on my own Last edited by klmsu19; 02-21-2008 at 10:10 AM. |

Is it me or does this seem to drain the battery more?

no2chem said it doesnt drain any faster. it jsut readjusts the % more so it may look like its draining faster but its not i can assure that. it still polls the battery at the same intervals at at 10%, just the meter is read in 1% intervals and not 10%

I'd have to say it is more accurate...seeing 83, 84, 85% is more detailed than just seeing 80 or 90% estimates....
