Google decided to change the BATTERY_STATS permission to be signature|system, which on KitKat means an app cannot access battery statistics. Functions such as identifying which apps are consuming more resources than others will not function. https://code.google.com/p/android/is...etail?id=61975
What does this do?
This uses the Xposed framework to provide an alternate implementation of the com.android.server.am.BatteryStatsService.getStati stics() method which will not enforce that the calling application have the BATTERY_STATS permission.
How do I install this?
This mod requires that your device is rooted, that the Xposed framework is installed, and that this module is enabled via the Xposed installer app. After a phone reboot, your battery monitoring apps should start to work as they did before KitKat rolled around.

This app does not 'launch', so don't be surprised to not see any way to start this app.
