Better (and more accurate) battery charge indicator?

One of the annoying things about the 6P is the inaccurate battery charge indicator. It would get to 100% and then trickle charge for anywhere from 30-90 minutes more.

It's annoying enough that reviewers have called Google out on it.

Quote:

What is worrying is that the battery charge indicator is extremely inaccurate at high charge levels. The device reports 100% much earlier than other devices. In fact there's still over 2W of power coming into the battery as it reports being fully charged. This goes on for another 40 minutes, representing an actually significant amount of energy representing about 7% of the battery's true capacity. As such, the Nexus 6P doesn't receive a good grade in the charge time metric due to its misleading charging indicator behaviour.
So is there a hack or mod that makes the charge indicator more accurate? (Running the stock ROM but am rooted and have Xposed installed.)

I like to fully charge my 6P so a more accurate indicator would be very helpful.

Thanks!
