    Hi guys, just got my new priv. loving it so far but still getting used to the keyboard.

    Mine doesn't seem to have the charging battery preview on the side when plugged in though. Anyone know if it is something I need to manually turn on first?

    Thanks!

    Make sure it is enabled. Go to Settings... Display... then Battery Edge.

    Same problem i used to have mine then it went away and yes its turned on by default so unless you know you turned it off it should be on.

    I have the same problem. It's enabled, but not working. But for some reason, it's not really bothering me. I'm having a lot of fun with this phone.

    So i just got my replacement Priv and tested that the green bar shows up, then i went to the Google Play store and did all updates and bar was still there. Did a reboot and it is still there. So it is not the updates. It must be a setting or an app causing it. While setting up the device i am going to check after every app install to find the culprit

    You are awesome.

    For what it's worth... I feel like I may have screwed up the battery software "stuff" by using an unapproved charger - so keep that in the back of your mind to if you suddenly notice it screws up again.

    Thanks for investigating!

    So does it work in a dark room?

    Nope and that's a feature not a bug.

    So I have installed every app that was on my old device and I can still see the charging bar on sleep screen. I will now customize my apps and notifications to see if that does anything. If that does nothing then it's the Transfer tool that I never used this time

    I would like to be able to show the battery edge status even in the dark. It is very cool looking

    I agree, so far I have set my setting to almost exactly the same as before and rebooted and it still shows for me. I have no idea why on the old phone it would not show properly. Even tried turning of dev mode. No idea what caused it then content transfer tool is the only difference. Sorry all that I could not find a thing that triggered it. I did notice though that I got a **** load of carrier apps this time around..
