Yeah, I actually got it to work, you need to open the file in photoshop, and increase the height to either 18 or 20 pixels, but keep the image centered. Save it and load it on your phone, and it will be in the normal position.
I guess we have to do the same with Black_BatteryDrainingLow.png file!? That one has exactly the same size, so it might raise above the icon too, right?
