Tried the dimmer on stock 2.3.4 ROM but it doesn't work, any difference there?

Lucid Nexus 1.6

Ok guys, I updated the kernel to version 1.6.

This version brings a new and improved version 3 of BLD (touchkey backlight dimmer by Ezekeel). The dimmer delay has been improved to reset after each press of the touchkeys, so the touchkey lights turn off after a certain delay consistently.

If you were already were using BLD in version 1.5, please download and flash new dimmer timer delay. Enjoy!
[Nexus S Android Development] gsxrdennis25:
please fix dl link for the cm7 blue version, it downloads the stock ns4g kernel
[Nexus S Android Development] sonnysekhon:
Great kernel reddv1, I have been using the 1.4y CM7 version for a while and my random reboots decreased by a lot.

Can you kindly make a Yellow version without any UV to completely get rid of the reboots?

Thanks in advance.
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
OK fixed the cm7 lucid blue link, sorry about that.
[Nexus S Android Development] gsxrdennis25:
Thanks for the speedy fix w the link
[Nexus S Android Development] treUse:
Would it be possible to permanently disable the backlights so that they never ligh up?

Currently I've got the the timeout at 0. This makes the buttons light up a split second when using them. Which looks kind of bad. So making them never light up would be awesome :)

Anyway, thanks for all the hard work.
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
I'm not sure, but you should mention it to Ezekeel he wrote this great mod. I'll definitely add it to the kernel.
[Nexus S Android Development] RonnieRuff:
This is the best UV kernel bar none. Works like a champ and has no silly looking splash screens!
[Nexus S Android Development] Peter_Peterson:
Actually setting dim timeout Tor 0 should disable it (The dim effect)

Disable it completely does not work (yet?).

The mod triggers everytime the Buttons are pressed. So android starts lighting them, the mod disables them.
[Nexus S Android Development] treUse:
You are changing the wrong value. There are 2 changeable files. The one you changed controls the timeout. The other one controls on/off.

Currently I'm not using this kernel so I can't check what file it is, but I think the answer might be in the OP.
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
I think Screen Dimmer introduced a bug that disables auto brightness, so stick to 1.6 for now. The 1.6 kernels download links are in the OP under Lucid Nexus Kernel Archive.

If anyone flashed 1.7 can you confirm if auto brightness is broken or not, thanks.
[Nexus S Android Development] rejanmanis:
AWESOME.

i flashed 1.7blue any rom few minutes ago.

Im on oxygen 2.2.1 , found oxygen setting force close after boot ( but still functioning ). :D

i cannot confirm yet about the auto brightness, due to i have no sunlight. here 9.13 P< GMT +7 . Sunrise at 6 AM tomorrow morning.

eventhough the auto brightness doesnt work, it doesnt matter. i dont use it, manually adjust it, already put at the power widget notification button.
[Nexus S Android Development] Serial Kazama:
Hallo,

i can confirm.

Using MIUI - German with lucid-nexus-1.7b-stk-NSGSM-2.3.5.

auto brightnes dosn´t work.

Not a big prob or? I am using the normal dimming methode. ^^

EDIT:

With lucid-nexus-1.7y-stk-NSGSM-2.3.5 it dosn´t work, too.
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
Thanks, other people have confirmed it not working with Trinity too. I guess we have to wait until Ezekeel fixes it. In the mean time I'm going to remove the screen dimmer feature, but 1.7 will still be available in the archive.

EDIT: Ezekeel fixed the auto brightness bug, I'll release an update soon.
[Nexus S Android Development] tonno16:
Hii guys.

I flashed this kernel (lucid 1.7) on Nexus MV 8.23 but now rom reboot in bootloop.

I flashed the kernel in nscollab 1.0.39 and all work but the unlock without touching does not work
[Nexus S Android Development] rony474:
yeah ... auto - brightness doesnt work .. MIUI 1.8.19 ..
[Nexus S Android Development] robrob777:

Great kernel! Been using Jame Bond for ages, glad someone picked it up when he left Nexus S for S2. Thanks reddv!

We are anxiously awaiting for your to release the screen dimmer fixed kernel... whats the OTA?

[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
I think you mean ETA, and it's today.
[Nexus S Android Development] rejanmanis:
Hi mr reddv1. I've been using ur kernel since days ago. i used lucid 1.7b i had random reboots every 36 hours more or less. I used oxygen 2.2.1.

Do think this is the oxygen problem or ur kernel. Thx before.

Sent from my Blackberry Torch :D
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
It could be either, but not many get reboots with this kernel. Try raising the voltage be 25 mV across the board and see what happens.
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
Updated kernel to 1.8 to fix some bugs.

Fixed auto-brightness from 1.7.

Fixed BLD not working properly on I9023, touchkeys' lights not turning back on after going off.

Experimental kernel

I just want to share an experimental kernel I'm testing/using.

-It runs at 1.1Ghz instead of 1Ghz at stock 1Ghz voltage,the cpu freq steps 100,200,400,800,1100.

-BLD and Touch Wake are enabled by default with a timeout of 30 seconds.

-Lucid Blue

-Touch Wake has a bug that may cause the screen not to come back on after the proximity sensor turns it off during a call.

Lucid-nexus-2.06b-1100mhz-exprimental-NS-NS4G.zip

Let me know if you like it or run into any issues.
[Nexus S Android Development] mike216:
Can we set it at 1000 and 1100 sorry I'm not understanding properly ,I'm running nscollab and this should be good because of stock Voltages?

Nevermind I see its 800 or 1100 nice quadrant score though
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
No, with the experimental kernel 1100mhz replaces 1000mhz, so your phone will use 100,200,400,800,1100 as needed instead of the stock 100,200,400,800,1000. The kernel is still undervolted but you can changes them I'm setcpu.
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
Did you type 'su' first?
[Nexus S Android Development] nbeebe24:
I did. I finally got it enabled, but I'm not sure what it does exactly. Touching the screen doesn't wake it
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
Well, the mod basically makes the touchscreen act like the power button when the screen turns off for a set period of time.

Here's how to test it, let the phone sit until the screen goes off on it's own, then tap the screen to wake the phone up.
[Nexus S Android Development] nbeebe24:
Got it... pretty cool mod. Thank you for the prompt replies. Also, I love your work. Keep up the great job
[Nexus S Android Development] reddv1:
1.9 removed because of a bug in Touch Wake that causes the screen not to turn back on after the proximity sensor turns off the screen during a call. 1.9 is still in archive if you still wanna use it.

Use 1.8 until the bug is fixed.
[Nexus S Android Development] kecinzer:

[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jkhouw1:
I very sorry but there is no amount of help or tech that will make your tab look cool. Everyone knows that only geeks use android. Only uber-geeks use android tablets. And in that sorry population that is uber-geeks, only the outcasts use the galaxy7 tab. So clearly all hope is lost. You might as well take your faded star wars IV shirt out of the closet and wear it proudly while holding the tab to your face as an oversized phone, being careful not to re-break the masking tape holding your glasses together where they broke when you were pushed into your locker.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] androidmonkey:
My girlfriend has a Blackberry Storm and looking to upgrade to a Android phone soon. I took at a look at the Droid Incredible 2 and was impressed. I know the newer phones like Thunderbolt and Charge have 4G but it also eats battery life.

I want to stay between $150 and $200. Any suggestions?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bik2101:
get it. i would definitely say its a worthwhile buy, especially given it has better battery life than the lte phones out. and now with it being rootable, makes it even better phone

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sgiitk:
I had an Epic 4G before switching to the Inc2. Must happier with this, more solid, slicker interface, longer (about 2x) battery life. htc synch works unlike Samsung Kies! Only flaw it is incredibly difficult to root.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] conmanxtreme:
My girlfriend has it too, and its a sweet phone, and I don't see any difficulties with rooting as long as you get it and it still has 2.2.1 on it. Then just get AlpharevX and S-off you are, then go ahead and install whatever you like, personally I installed CM7 for her, and it runs great and gets quadrant scores about 700 higher (1500 upto 2200) and that's on stock clocks too, you can overclock easily if you wanna also lol so yeah I'd say go ahead, and enjoy leaving that blackberry behind lol

People get frustrated with questions like this when the answer is in a thread topic on the first page of the development forum.

Yes, search is sometimes deficient, but in this case - the answer is right there in the thread topics and you don't even have to go one page back.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Misterjunky:
re: search

I am not sure if you are even aware of this, but there have been many a times when the "search" feature here in XDA does not work, XDA has some kind of daily cleanup or who knows what, and informs everyone that the search engine is down and not available between certain hours of the day.

Not to mention the fact that in the IRC channels some people tend to be even less helpful than they are here :)

[Gen8, Gen9, Gen10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sirreal12:
I am interested in just making my stock Archos 101 (clean install from format w/ sde) to have just root working right now. I have used Uruk and I just don't find it stable enough for me to want to keep around, instead I would like to stay stock but have permanent root access without using any apps. Unless the app is 100% garauntee'd to give permanent root access always and no stability issues or conflicts with other apps.

I turn to you XDA for this help request. Hopefully to hear from someone with some more information soon. Maybe some guides, links, etc.

If I have to use an app that would be fine, but I would really like to know how to do it without using any apps. Just to make my own. Thanks!

P.S. i have done alot of reading and alot of the posts just made things more confusing to me. I am hoping to get some good clear information, thanks everyone here at XDA!

[HTC EVO 3D] taiguy:
So my story begins 2 weeks ago. I noticed that my EVO3D would not sustain a data connection randomly. It happened more often than not at home (where I spend a good amount of time). The 3G symbol would not blink or show any activity. Turning off "mobile network" and re-enabling would sometimes work. The majority of the time it would just hang. It would say "Turning on" and just hang there, it would never actually turn on. This would also have the side effect of not letting me make or receive calls. I'd get a call origination failed message. This is while having 5-6 bars of service. There are other sprint phones in the house and they work fine, so guessing it's not a poor signal issue.

After scouring google for a while it seems like this problem crops up with other phones as well. Sadly none of the information I found had any answers. Calling Sprint up the tech was baffled as well.

I decided to just exchange my phone since I was still within my 30 days.

So far so good. I've tested my data a few times while at home. 1.5Mb/780kb. Aside from it seeming to take a while to initiate a data connection everything seems to be fine.

Now I found out that only 1 out of about 7 calls make it to my cell phone when I dial with another phone. I'm not sure what's causing this but I'd guess it's because of my spotty data service on this phone. Could it be a software issue?

At my wits end right now. Ideas?
[HTC EVO 3D] taiguy:
just wasted another 2 hours on the phone with sprint.

after hearing a voicemail pop up without hearing my phone ring at all I realized the issue is still around.

sprint techs did the usual slurry of tests (ie. checking MDN/MSID, data provisioning, and eventually a full hard reset).

Even without installing or syncing anything to the phone it wouldn't place a call. I keep getting a "Call origination failed" message or "Error code 67". This would indicate it's not a google voice or software problem.

The tech's only resolution for me was to take it to a sprint store repair center to have them do diagnostic work on it. This is a brand new phone. I'm not sure what they're going to turn up.

When is the Samsung Galaxy S II being released on sprint?
[HTC EVO 3D] taiguy:
Brought my phone to the my local sprint repair center and they ran the Slate (acronym for something?) on it. Everything checked out OK. They weren't any help and it took about 2 hours.

Came home and was not able to place or receive any calls. Sprint customer service reps cite that their have been outages in my area. I called my girlfriend's sprint phone from google talk and it rang in about 5 seconds. What the hell.
[HTC EVO 3D] taiguy:
This is pretty much my exact issue, except on the EVO 3D as opposed to the EVO 4G.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iarapilot:
I am getting an ATT Galaxy Tab 7 inch and have a few Q's. I have searched around but cant find specific answers to some Q's.

I am new to the Tab, but have been running Android on my HTC HD2; booting Android from the SD card once WinMo loads.

The question I have is, are you able to put a mobile phone flavor of Android on the Tab. And if so, can it be done with a ROM that boots from an SD card on a phone, or does it have to be NAND?

This is what I am running on my phone...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=970542

I really like it and am wondering if I can put it on the Tab as the only OS. I have read that you can make the Tab so it can be used as a phone also, which is what I plan to do.

Any answers would be appreciated. And, if someone could steer me in the right direction with respect to putting a non stock ROM on, that would be appreciated also.

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rangercaptain:
The development section is devoted to non-stock roms.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naimmkassim:
Maybe you can request the developer that create the rom to make one that suit the tab. He need to port it to our tab before you can use it to flash.

:)

You need to understand, SG tab is not a WM device which the android OS need to boot from SD card. Tab is using android OS, and if you want to use custom rom on it, you need to flash the tablet custom rom (not a phone rom) which will replace the stock rom.
[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iarapilot:

Hi people,

Maybe we can make a poll to say which firmware we are using daily and try to explain which are the main advantages/why-to-use and disadvantages/bugs.

This might help new users to decide which firmware to use in different situations based on our experiences :rolleyes:
[Vega General] thomskipsp:
I go with the VegaComb, its fast, quite stable(its still a beta), good interface. I also tried the Corvus, but I like Vegacomb better, because of the speed and interface.
[Vega General] rpetya:
Vote for Paul's, it gives me the widest set of features i need. The others lack something here and there: connectivity, drivers, etc...
[Vega General] Pai.Tincho:
I´m using VegaComb at the moment. You can see that this version is made for tablets so it´s far more intuitive.

There are still plenty of bugs (bluetooth, camera, some apps compatibility) so I´m looking forward to get another update and see the evolution of this :)
[Vega General] yioti:
I'm with vegacomb right now and in the coming days or weeks a faster version should come out but its personal experience just try each rom and see which one suits you best and remember the Vega is not brickable!!!! (BEST TABLET IN THE WORLD LOL)
[Vega General] veryjo:
I use Corvus 5

+fast

+stable

+no errors

For me in the moment the best rom. I use it without overclocking.
[Vega General] derffie:
I'll second the corvus5!!!

It was my first rom I flashed, there has been others, good others, CM7, R8mod even lil miss glitzy vegacomb, but my heart still goes back to my first love...:D

[Vega General] maltloaf:
I have only had my Vega a few days but have tried most of the roms out there.

Modaco R8. Quite nice. Seems fast and stable and would be my main rom if Corvus5 didn't exist.

Vegacomb. Looks beautiful and I will use it as my daily rom as soon as a few oddities are ironed out - amazing work!

CM7. The couple of nightlies I tried seemed buggy and had essential items missing.

Corvus5. The most enjoyable, complete and stable rom and I've always come back to it.
[Vega General] thihaz:
i have a hard time with Corvus5

My tablet is called Loongpad, advent vega clone

I tried Corvus5 2 or 3 times.

Every time I reboot it, I got a unresponsive screen but the buttons are still working luckily. The other drawback is the battery life. Compare to VegaComb 1.7, Corvus5's battery life sucks. No insults.

Currently Stick with VegaComb 1.7 although the camera is not working yet. The rest are pretty working well.

Cheers.
[Vega General] O_G:
Since vegacomb has moved to 3.2, its the best rom for the vega. Far faster than stock. Just the camera and Bluetooth not working, but i am sure they will be fixed shortly. For anyone who has not tried it, flash it now, its a must for the vega. Fantastic work by TeamNewCo.
[Vega General] partner22:
VegaComb looks nice in our Vegas, and with software acceleration is super-fast
[Vega General] kenfisher:
Started with Paul's. Took me ages to get it working (newbe), but when I did, I was euphoric.

Got clockwork (easy install) and moved onto corvus5. Settled on corvus, and thought things can't get better than this. So smooth and fast.

And then vegacomb 3.2 came up. I taught myself how to flash roms again, and can't believe how good it is. Upgraded to build 7 this morning. Amazing.
