I do something like this private static BroadcastReceiver batteryInfo = new BroadcastReceiver() { @Override public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) { String action = intent.getAction(); if(Intent.ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED.equals(action)) { int level = intent.getIntExtra("level", 0); int scale = intent.getIntExtra("scale", 100); int plugged = intent.getIntExtra("plugged", 0); int batteryLevel = level * 100 / scale; . . . } } }
the value of 'plugged' indicates whether the phone is on charge or not. Normally a 2 indicates that the phone is on charge.
