I have just installed Battery Pack 5.05. This new version has finally got the Battery Remaining time correct on my Axim. If any of you have been having the nightmare I have with the Battery Time this is the fix for you! I really like the Power Off and Soft Reset Buttons.

Just wait until you go thru about 2 battery cycles. It looked to me like v5.0.3 got it right but after the first cycle the battery remaining time got stuck at about 1h 58m instead of 2h 42m.
Keep us posted though.

Nope.

Mine its 100% charged and says 1 hour 47 minutes. Then the battery bar at the top, says 2 hours.

Well I guess I put to much faith in 5.0.5. On a full charge mine switched from 4.25 hours back to 1.42. I guess they still have more work to do on this function. Everything else seems to work fine. Since I gave on up on the Time issue I switched the meter to display "Full" instead of time remaining.

Anyone had any conflicts with other programs while running Battery Pack v5? Mine was doing fine then all of a sudden, I can't take notes anymore. Ya'll heard anything like that before? Thanks.

Yeah I long ago gave up on the time remaining. Not that big of deal to me. I just use the % left instead.

under the options, set display #3 to none

i am pretty new to this program. Any tricks or advice?

None that I can think of, it's pretty straight forward. I turned off the voice. Was neat but every time the ax started up she'd berate me about memory being low.

Otheriwse great app, one of my staples.

cool. I never have my sound on, i havent even heard the voice.

I have BatteryPack 5.03 how do I upgrade to 5.05? I went back to the link and downloaded it again but it says its the same version. Am I doing something wrong.

Is there a way to have the battery bar display veritcally rather than horizontally?

Also, a complaint. I like to move my shortcuts around from where they were intially installed. Once this is done, they don't seem to work from the program bar anymore.

Had the same problem. You have to fix the shortcuts in the windows/start menu folders. Or make new shortcuts.
