Thumbs up Feature Request: Battery Pull Utility

Hello Team!

Wanted to make the suggestion about a Battery Pull being added to the FIXMO set of tools. I remember some discussion of this during the BETA and wondered where things were with this... Could we expect one soon? With a Bat.Pull utility added in we could consolidate even further and get rid of QucikPull and its stupid ads.

All the best.
David.

I have to say I truly hope not as battery pulls and applications that simulate them
are useless 98% of the time.

I'd hate to see such a stellar app diminished with such a useless function.

yeah would be cool to see it integrated in Fixmo as ''preset reset''. Personally just press alt+right shift+del when I need it...

Battery Pull (Quick Pull) is coming. We had it in but pulled it (no pun intended) to tighten up/ship.

It's a good point, Ken. We've got a version we will beta here first before shipping it as core. I think it works well but I do hear you. The whole simulation effort to do this is ugly given that you are essentially forcing the JVM to phreak out and make a reboot happen.

I'm stupid when it comes to the super technical side of this, so could you explain why this is useless? I do not pull my battery (physically or simulated) very regularly, but when I do for recovering memory, after installing new themes/apps, and the likes it works great and I haven't had any problems.
