Isn't there any Homebrew app or plugin that would let me see the Wii U GamePad battery's charge %, as 3DS's Luma would ?

I couldn't find any info on the net. Maybe I searched not efficiently, or enough 🤷🏼‍♂️

Gonna check it quickly, once I finish trying to get Loadiine work. Thanks again 🙏🏼
What are you using Loadiine for? If it's WiiU games they're terribly slow off the SD card. You're better off getting an external HDD (with a y cable or external power plug) and using the Brazilian method for USB loading. Although from what I've heard Loadiine is fine for ds games. Never tried them myself

I just wanted to see what Loadiine looks like by curiosity. I wanted to install Personal Trainer : Cooking on it, but I did that by injecting the game on the HOME menu. The mic won't recognize spoken sentences tho.

t is an .rpx file ;)

Is it possible to use this file as a plugin ? Would be perfect !

Not at the moment, maybe when aroma comes out I can make it an overlay when you hold a button for a few seconds or something like that
Personally, I use Tiramisu. Is Aroma something different ?

Also, it seems odd that my GamePad battery indicates 100%, altho I've already used it for like thirty minutes 🤨

It's an upcoming environment (like another cfw) that will come with a lot of cool stuff

It's because the battery is reported internally as 0-4, 4 being fully charged, so what I do is divide the number I get by 4 and multiply it by 100, simple math, sadly there's no other way to get an accurate percentage

I see. I guess I'm gonna have to deduce by a chronometer or something.
 
@Xpl0itU thank you so much for this app... out of curiosity I tested it in my Wii U and the resault of the app it shows always 0% as the picture below...

Do you think that mine it's an isolated case or should be something else?
The Battery of this PAD I replaced in the past with the bigger Size; from the stock that come with the PAD (could be this the problem?)...

Edit 2: The BAttery it's well recornize and working from the quick Menu...

Cheers

@Xpl0itU,

I have a question.

The app shows in HBL, but with no logo/picture.
How can i add this ? Just put a .png in the folder.

Or doest it need to be added/progammed in the .rpx file ??

Just for the looks that would be nice.
Just put a png named icon in. Grab one of your other homebrew ones as a template and copy your own image over the top and save!

Can i just clarify..... This is an rpx to be ran everytime you want to see an estimated battery percentage or does this remain a constant display on which screen?
