Do I have the only iPhone with an apple approved Numeric battery?

**Antiherosk8er** · 04-01-2009, 04:50 PM

Okay so I had a Jailbroken 2.2.1 iPhone 3g. I restored to the new 3.0 beta 2. And I have a Numeric battery. I've looked around on other site's and there is no mention of this or pictures.

Do I have the only iPhone with an apple approved Numeric battery?

Here are some pictures.

It's not a fake or April fools joke. I would also like to
know what the icon is next to AT&T logo.

- Thanks!

maybe its just a feature with 3.0. Probably just not mentioned because it isnt a big deal

Thing is I've researched it, and haven't found a single screen shot or mention of it... I just want to know why I have the only phone with it enabled...

Omg!! Have been wanting this forever. Hope it's not some kind of fluke. I know I can get the numeric with sbsettings. But I have always wanted both.

i think that icon might be for Tethering?

If you were jailbroken on another firmware, and had numeric battery installed, it probably just stuck with the upgrade to 3.0. I've done full restores before and the numeric battery remained even though the phone wasn't jailbroken.

getting a numeric battery on your iphone isnt loading any new files on, its just a matter of changing one of the user preference files on your iphone. These files are included in the backups itunes does. So when you installed 3.0 i assume you restored from a backup, hence restoring the preference files.

^^What he said. And he above him. You won't have it if you never had the numeric battery with SBSettings.

I understand that actually. But I didn't restore from a backup. There is a possibility it stayed from my former Sbsetting numeric battery. But it doesn't display it like sbsettings did. Maybe i activated a hidden future 3.0 option?

I was about to say what everyone else did, but then i looked at the screenshots and its not the sbsettings one, THis one looks awesome! wonder if anyone else has had it??

**Antiherosk8er** · 04-02-2009, 12:26 AM

In talking with a few devs, it seem they were able to activate it somehow. Here to it showing up in the final build of 3.0...

I love the small yet very useful feature!

That icon in the top left next to AT&T is similar to the icon if you go to Phone>Recents in 3.0.

Dialling out has a little phone sign like that, missed call has nothing, and recieved call has nothing.

that might be the missed call symbol? Maybe?

And i was going to say the same as everyone else, but am questioning it now ...

**Antiherosk8er** · 04-02-2009, 12:50 PM

The icon with the phone ended up being a call forwarding bug... I got rid of it. Thanks to matt.superman for figuring it out.

wow. i really hope this will be a hidden feature in 3.0 =)
