1 | Battery Status of an Android Phone |
| 2 | ================================== | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | Plug your Android device to a power supply and start this shell script. The script will inform you when the battery is loaded to about 80%. | |
| 5 | Generally, keeping the battery loaded to 40 - 80% increases its live time. | |
| 6 | The application terminates when this threshold is passed or when the device is not attached to a power supply. | |
| 7 | As the delay between battery checks is 5 minutes (to reduce power consumption), it may take up to 5 minutes to terminate. | |
| 8 | ||
| 9 | This application is based on Termux which runs a shell script. Termus is a kind of Linux running on Android devices. | |
| 10 | ||
| 11 | What you need is: | |
| 12 | ----------------- | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | **Apps:** | |
| 15 | ||
| 16 | * Termux: Terminal-Emulator | |
| 17 | * Termux:API: To access the Android-Functions | |
| 18 | * Termux:Widget: To place the script as Widget on the Android-Desktop | |
| 19 | ||
| 20 | **Termux Packages** | |
| 21 | ||
| 22 | * termux-api: from Termux:API | |
| 23 | * jq: Analysing `json` data. termux-battery-status returns the data in `json` format | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | Place the script into the folder `~/.shortcuts/tasks` | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | *It may take up to 1 minute before the result is returned.* | |
| 28 | ||
| 29 | Hints | |
| 30 | ----- | |
| 31 | ||
| 32 | * How can I access device storage with Termux? | |
| 33 | Run `termux-setup-storage`. It will ask for permission and once it was granted, it will setup symlinks in directory ~/storage to standard directories like DCIM, Download, etc. | |
