Hi, I was able to do the things suggested by Steven - very helpful. I had to change the scripts a little -e.g. in the presuspend, I had to change != "Discharging" to = "Charging" (the status used to be "Not charging" on my phone).
The only problem is - i don't have the cpu_percent program in /usr/bin - i couldn't find it anywhere else also. Thanks for all the help!
