Similar to "Battery notifier" app, but without icon and have setting in Setting app (see screenshots).

How it work:
* Choose checking and notification interval (1-5min).
* Choose upper and lower limits.
* Apply button will apply your changes and will start service. You can see status will be changed to "active".
* Now you can change upper & lower limits without pressing Apply button..
* It will stop notification when you connect to power supply (if less than lower limit) or if you will change the lower limit in setting. Same for disconnect from power supply (if more than upper limit).

NOTES:
* "Battery notifier" app will be uninstalled automatically.
* From version 0.1-8 it's conflicting with "Charger control" app.

Dear Schturman,
Battery Notifier and Battery Notifier 2 don't work on my SONY Xperia 10 with Sailfish X 3.2.
I hope that you will find the time to fix this. The Notifier 2 has helped me a lot with my Jolla 1.
Cheers,
Dejan.

Looking through the involved scripts, Xperia 10 support should be doable.

This is what would have to be changed wrt sysfs files:

/sys/class/power_supply/battery/capacity                ## OK
/sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_enabled        ## Xperia 10: does not exist, probably could use /sys/class/power_supply/usb/input_suspend
/sys/class/power_supply/battery/status                  ## OK
/sys/class/power_supply/bms/capacity                    ## OK
/sys/class/power_supply/bms/status                      ## Xperia 10: does not exist, use battery/status
/sys/class/power_supply/usb/charger_disable             ## Xperia 10: /sys/class/power_supply/usb/input_suspend
/sys/class/power_supply/usb/online                      ## OK
/sys/devices/platform/msm_ssbi.0/pm8038-core/pm8921-charger/power_supply/usb/present ## Xperia 10: /sys/devices/platform/soc/800f000.qcom,spmi/spmi-0/spmi0-00/800f000.qcom,spmi:qcom,pm660@0:qcom,qpnp-smb2/power_supply/usb/present

 

There seems to be no equivalent to /sys/module/pm8921_charger/, which the scripts use to en/disable the charger driver, not sure what should be done here.

I'm interested to have a closer look at the code. Is the code open?

This app is very useful:

 

1. I can finally track the battery status via pebble smartwatch

 

2. I can mantain the battery healthy with charge limit (upper).

 

I would like to support more for Xperia X dev, is it feasible?

 

Thank you

Thanks for v0.1-18, I already wondered about the missing notifications and was about to take a closer look at it.

I also had the impression, that v0.1-17 was not properly working when reaching the upper limit under SailfishOS 2.1.2.3 (it just kept on charging on my Jolla 1 phones), so I will watch the behaviour of v0.1-18 in this situation.

Kudos to you for the many useful and nice little additions you implement and maintain for SailfishOS!

Hi. I still didn't find solution for non-removable notification... See this: https://together.jolla.com/question/169905/questionpython-script-problem... and this: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=100000

No visible action (stop charging) with SailfishX v2.1.3.5 (Xperia X). I guess this is hardware related.

The tool is good but the menu descriptions has cofused me. I used "Stop charging on upper limit" with a upper limit set in this option to chargins only. But in fact it stopped charging and then starts using batteriy instead of the power supply. I wonder me here is a slider needed. The upper message slider will never be arrived.
Ok I found the correct setup for me in "Only usb power on upper limit." But what is the exact cause for the slider "Choose when starting again"? It will not start charging if phone is not below this limit?

Option to change the notification sound would be nice. I personally don't mind the default, but it sounds too much like a doorbell which makes the dog (german splitz mittel) bark a lot which I mind.

You can change it manually, two files:
/usr/share/sounds/jolla-ambient/stereo/battery_notifier.wav
/usr/share/sounds/jolla-ambient/stereo/battery_notifier_full.wav
Change them to yours audio files, but leave the file names.

On 2.0.2.51 and Jolla C, the stop on upper Limit is not working. On my Jolla 1 with 2.0.2.51 the stop on upper limit also not works anymore. Great App, for having long lasting battery

How you know it not turn off ?

I need more information...

1. What you use "Stop charging" or "Only USB-power" ?

2. What your upper limit ?

You also can try to stop service and start it again...

Also you can install AIDA64 from jolla store and check battery when you get notification and see if it continue charging or it write Discharging or Not charging... For me all work like expected...

Hmmm, it weird... Did you tried stop service, restart lipstick and start service again? And you sure you usr "stop charging" and not "usb power only" ?
To removd all messages you can run as ROOT:
sqlite3 /home/nemo/.local/share/system/privileged/Notifications/notifications.db "select * from notifications;"|grep "Battery notifier"|cut -d '|' -f1|while read line; do su -l nemo -c "notificationtool -o remove -i $line" && sleep 2; done

And what slider parameter for "Choose when start charging again", maybe it reach this parameter and started charging again?

70%.
before your patch i have tried the situations solution but it never worked for me.
can it depend on cable or charging current ? means Ampere ?
as mentioned before your tool did work for me and then did stop around 6 weeks ago. now it does send a message but wont stop.to charge

I didn't change the behavior for this... This is a reason that I don't understand why it not work for you and work for me like before... Try uninstall, reboot and install again, setup again and press apply...

what you mean "Orphan" messages ? If you mean meassages from notification screen, yes, it should remobe them too.

Instead of switching to discharge mode and asking to disconnect the power source when batt level reaches its upper limit, would it be possible to switch to the special mode "stop charging and start powering the device from USB only"?

BTW, xkr47's "Charger Control" cover actions are no longer working after Battery Notifier is installed (Jolla phone, Taalojärvi)
