Kostya, I'm pretty sure it shows up, but this kind of measurement is really not precise - I need time-based values, ie "the application consumed 2,5% of total battery power after 1 hour of running", you can't really take any values from the application list, because they are influenced by other applications running (for example if during one of the tests the display is on a bit longer cause some application decided to wake up the phone, or the GSM/wifi signal gets weak so the device has to scan more for appropriate signal(s), it might seriously change the results - more battery usage of one application automatically means less for all other application on that screen).
Thanks for your reply.
