I will exchange the battery files png from that link into

System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app


my question is in the sprinboard folder there are 17 battery png's

but in that link there are 18 png files

the files from that link have a diff name then from the sprinboard folder

in the sprinboard folder the files are named like this

BatteryBG_1.png through 17


the files in the link are named

firee-1.png


I have to rename them to BatteryBG correct?


also since the link has 18 files do i just add that 18th file in as BatteryBG_18.png ?


thanks

I changed mine to the duracell Battery instead.
Mine is also 17 files. I dont know what the 18 is for. I dont even think it exists inside the SpringBoard.app folder.

There is (was) and battery background file, but I don't think you need it anymore. But yeah they do need to be named how the stock files are. If I were you I'd append the stock files with "-BAK.png" so you have them in case anything happens.

Some more info for locations where all graphics are stored in the iphones file system posted on this page.

Also I noticed your fire battery icon has 18 files instead of 17.
And the icon without a number is displayed a fully charged icon. Thats what number 17 is supposed to be.
Instead when the battery is fully now number 17 is going to display about 99% full.
So either rename the firee with no number to number 17 or delete the first icon with the red color and then rename the next number 1 and rename all of them untill you hit 17 where its supposed to be fullly charged.

Good advice, alway have a backup plan.

my mistake

edit:

[Che Castro]

heres the folder with the 18 pngs

can you guys check it out


the first one is named firee.png and the battery image is full

the last one witht he number 17th is almost full but not there yet

so im thinkin I should add that full image named firee.png as number 18 in the sprinboard folder?

the files are already named what they suppose to be and there are 17 inside

[Applejuiced]

Yes, this will work perfect.

Number 18 wont do anything.
You need to rename the firee.png to 17 if you want it to work and show up as full.
Remove the first one with the red line.
And then rename the rest instead of 2 to 1 and so on.
Where 17 is the completelly full batttery logo.
If you still want to use this one instead of the other you posted above.

Here, I fixed the firee battery icon and named it right.
If you want to check it out all you gotta do is drag and drop.

You can switch it any time you want.

[Che Castro]
