I wish I could, let me ask you...I have a perhaps similar issue. I had to reflash the kernel and file system after installing pr 1.3 due to my stupidity. anyway so I have a blank slate. I installed advanced-power which worked perfectly on pr 1.2 and my battery bar swoosh gone. I uninstall advanced-power and I get it back. here is a link to the thread, nobody has an answer as of yet.

thnks....i got my batt icon back after uninstalling it....

Re: my batt icon dissapear
 

hhh7fold: So what was the app that caused this problem for you? Advanced Power? What repositories did you have enabled? Also, can you tell me what you have installed currently? (And what of that was installed when you installed Advanced Power?) Because a few people have been reporting this issue, and I'm trying to figure out what the problem is, until the developer has the time to participate more actively and solve it.

Yes, it also happened when i installed Advanced Power. Even after uninstalling it, the batt icon still disappear. The solution i found was to restart my n900 and it appeared again. Just restart the phone after installing Advanced Power. Should be ok

Okay, so yours was just the normal restart hildon-status-menu (which rebooting does) and it will reappear.

The only problem is that for some people, the Hildon Status Menu got messed up and their icon wouldn't come back even after a reboot.

Yupp same with me.. I lost the battery icon and reboot didn't work .. So I had to uninstall that app to get it bck.

Re: my batt icon dissapear
 

Any chance you could list what you had installed at the time (if you remember), and/or what repository you got it from?

Re: my batt icon dissapear
 

It was from extras and it was the only app I installed at that time
(as it was the only new app in the extras at tht time :P ).
and I uninstalled that app only which gave me back my battery icon
