Zombi-pop 5..1..1 status bat question

Was wondering if there is a way to hide or remove the percentage indicator located next to battery icon in the status bar (upper right corner) for zombi-pop on the tf300t? In settings under ”bars" there is a choice to "never" show the percentage indicator but it seems to do nothing when chosen. While the icon seems to not distract me the % indicator has me constantly watching it drain. Would really love to turn it off.

Thanks,
Dawg
