Send battery info to external application

[EmilioBlackBird]

This is the application created in Csharp, winform and Visual Studio. I want the battery information to be seen in the holes prepared for it. It is an exe application.

I send image of the code.

Do you mean your code is able to send information from device to PC?

[EmilioBlackBird]

Yes, I want this information

 

In my csharp external application

Hi @EmilioBlackBird,

Your title wrote "battery info", and now you want all information of the device?

[EmilioBlackBird]

I want battery info, but I would like to know, just in case, if I can get more information.

Hi @EmilioBlackBird,

For getting battery info, you can get it by using below code,

using Wave.Native;

var battPercentage = Interop.WVR_GetDeviceBatteryPercentage(WVR_DeviceType.WVR_DeviceType_HMD);

For device info such as serial number, I am not able to get it, not sure is it because of permission issue.

I tried getting serial number by

AndroidJavaClass ajc = new AndroidJavaClass("android.os.Build");
string serialno = ajc.CallStatic<string>("getString", "ro.serialno");

But from the log I get

06-25 20:44:03.733  7652  7680 E libc    : Access denied finding property "ro.serialno"

And it returns unknown.

I will need to search online to see how to resolve this issue.

UPDATE: For API level 29 and above, you are not allowed to get serial number.

The build we are doing is for computer, we don't use the HTC API to make the build for the device. It is an .exe. And the application is external.

The only thing we use is Vive Streaming.

Well we want that battery information to be seen in the external application, created in csharp. But both the application and the build are not for the device.

Hi @EmilioBlackBird,

Your project did import any plugin such as SteamVR Unity Plugin?

[EmilioBlackBird]

Yes.

Hi @EmilioBlackBird,

I was told that you are able to get battery information(Prop_DeviceBatteryPercentage_Float) from SteamVR Unity Plugin.

Could you try that?
