I mean this in regards to battery and signal indicators (3g only). Allow me to elaborate.
The battery indicator has 6 states
Shows | Actual
----------------
100% 100-90
90% 90-80
80% 80-40 ---WHAT THE F$#* WHY?
50% 40-30
40% 30-20
10% 20-0
And the signal strength has 5 states (bars)
Shows | Actual
----------------
5 Bars -60 to -92dBm
4 bars -94 to -100dBm
3 bars -100 to -110dBm
2 bars -110 to -120dBm
1 bar unknown / no signal?
I get that not everybody understands the power measurement of dBm, but if you refuse to show me, at least give me realistic indicators. as of now, it is:
5 bars - Perfect to moderate signal
4 bars - moderate to unusable
3 bars - unusable
2 bars - unusable
1 bar - unusable
Ans as far as the battery is concerned... what can I even say? when I'm deciding brightness and wifi and 3g/vs 4g I really need an acurate indicator of what my battery status looks like. showing me 80% when I actually have 41% is unacceptable. As of now, I use a third party battery indicator (so I can have real numbers) and I am infuriated every time I look at my homescreen and see this ****. Love the hardware, hate the software. I can't wait for custom roms.
