It's a Python script, so the executable is the source code.

I'm getting error 403 on these images. Are you sure they are set for public viewing?

I didn't know about extracting files inside an OPK (unsquashfs).   ???

I have a similar app called Baterry at https://github.com/alexandrevicenzi/gcw_battery

Thanks for the app,but i have a question why my gcw zero its showing 92% percentage of the battery? I fully chargerd my gcw zero and its showing that number (92%) its supposed to get 100% of the battery fully charged....Do i need to calibrate my battery? if the answer its yes can anyone show me how to calibrate the battery of my gcw zero?

That's because these numbers are highly inaccurate. The reason we don't show battery percentage in gmenu2x.

So tell me it cant? be fixed the battery percentage issue with a firmware update right?

We simply don't know more accurate numbers. We'd need to measure the voltage of dozens of batteries when they discharge to come up with a better model.
So yes, I think that's something that could be improved with a firmware update, but it won't happen.

The 100% number corresponds to POWER_SUPPLY_VOLTAGE_NOW being equal to POWER_SUPPLY_VOLTAGE_MAX_DESIGN.
Which never happens; this "max design" number is a number that we selected as being the max capacity of the battery, but it's totally arbitrary. If enough people give us their "voltage max design" number, on recent enough devices, we could adjust that value better.

good news !!! :)

I have also problems with the accuracy of the battery.

I'm thinking about making a version that users can report gcw0 value of POWER_SUPPLY_VOLTAGE_MAX_DESIGN

but I have doubts on how to do
when you say "enough on Recent devices" What gcw0 units are adequate?

on how to report the data I have thought of two:
easy:
Exporting a file from the application to the memory of gcw0. The user makes a post in the forum with the file.

nice one:
I have a NAS at home 24/7. I can prepare a PHP receive and store the values in MySQL

To do this it is necessary to identify which sends data gcw0 something like MAC, S / N ...

I would go either some advice.


sorry for my English I used google translate

Count with me to send my battery values to improve it to the next firmware update ;)

You must download source code (dge file) and edit line 67:
Code: [Select]
bg_color = [ 0 , 0 , 255 ]... and create a new opk file...

You must use a "Terminal" option and "unix" eol, not windows. Don't use notepad to edit a dge file.
