Here is a quick example that will get you the amount of battery used, the battery voltage, and its temperature.
Paste the following code into an activity:
@Override
public void onCreate() {
BroadcastReceiver batteryReceiver = new BroadcastReceiver() {
int scale = -1;
int level = -1;
int voltage = -1;
int temp = -1;
@Override
public void onReceive(Context context, Intent intent) {
level = intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_LEVEL, -1);
scale = intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_SCALE, -1);
temp = intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_TEMPERATURE, -1);
voltage = intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_VOLTAGE, -1);
Log.e("BatteryManager", "level is "+level+"https://stackoverflow.com/"+scale+", temp is "+temp+", voltage is "+voltage);
}
};
IntentFilter filter = new IntentFilter(Intent.ACTION_BATTERY_CHANGED);
registerReceiver(batteryReceiver, filter);
}
On my phone, this has the following output every 10 seconds:
ERROR/BatteryManager(795): level is 40/100 temp is 320, voltage is 3848
So this means that the battery is 40% full, has a temperature of 32.0 degrees celsius, and has voltage of 3.848 Volts.
