-ReaL-: Your settings work very good to increase or decrease brightness very fast, thank you !

The problem I see is that the MINIMUN brightness is always very low (very dark). I can't find a way to set it brighter, although I changed the LEVELS (Automatic Backlight / Edit other levels...)

Is there another setting I must change to control the minimum brightness?
[XPERIA X8 General] mr-tical:
Yes, set my settings with 16 levels and corrected light values.

[XPERIA X8 General] tripaX8:
Thank you mr-tical, I already changed those levels, but the screen goes darker than the minimun levels, even if I set the minimum to 90.

The problem may be that "als" is a hardware mode that doesn't use those levels, will try i2c_pwm_als, or i2c_pwm modes, and let you know.

[XPERIA X8 General] tripaX8:
Thanks l3s, that was useful, although some parameters don't work at all, like curve::targets or br::rate::up/down

My findings are:

using als mode (either i2c_als, or als)

The increase or decrease of brightness is fast using als::avg-t

I can't set the minimum brightness, it's always too low for me.

using i2c mode alone

The increase or decrease of brightness is slow

I can set the minimum brightness using the Levels.

I'll stick with i2c alone, at least I can see the secreen in low light conditions.
[XPERIA X8 General] -ReaL-:
No. Unfortunately, with fast autobrightness (pwm_als) we cant set manual brightness...:(

Thanks again l3s, I tried your hw_conf.sh, but in a dark room, the minimum brightness is too low for me, and I can't make it brighter.

May be I'm too old and need glasses :cool: , but I will keep i2c mode

thanks
[XPERIA X8 General] l3s:
You're welcome!

it's up to you, which one are better for you.

But if You change this row

in my hwconf.sh

echo 30,70,130,175,254 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0036/curve::targets

onto this

echo 50,90,130,175,254 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0036/curve::targets

the minimum brightness will be bigger.
[XPERIA X8 General] tripaX8:
OK, that worked !!! :D

Except that instead of 50,90,130,175,254 I use 100,115,130,175,254

because it seems that this parameter is in a different scale than the Levels in CyanogenMod settings.

Thanks l3s.
[XPERIA X8 General] mr-tical:
GREAT!!!

But i've changed for me

echo 1024 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0036/als::avg-t # 32, 63, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096

to

echo 256 > /sys/devices/platform/i2c-adapter/i2c-0/0-0036/als::avg-t # 32, 63, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096

Now screen react faster :)

Great!!
[XPERIA X8 General] impster:
Is there a simple way to get autobrightness working well in GDX v013?

I've tried the update.zip included on this thread, but as it takes away control of manual brigthness, it's not really practical for me.

Therefore, is there a really easy way to simply adjust values via CyanogenMod settings menu (without having to change the coinfig settings inside the software?)?

Also, does autobrightness use more battery?

Many thanks for all the advice here.
[XPERIA X8 General] tripaX8:
@mr-tical : yes, that's better

Its not easy because sometimes depends on personal taste, if you want to understand how to change each value, you should read this thread from the beginning.

The easiest way is to leave hw_config.sh as it is, and modify levels in

Settings / CyanogenMod settings / Display / Automatic Backlight / edit other levels...

mr-tical wrote a good post about that here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16604733&postcount=62

I have two answers to that: :D

- Autobrightness uses more battery than setting your brightness manually to lowest level all the time.

- Autobrightness uses less battery than setting your brightness manually to highest level all the time.
[XPERIA X8 General] impster:
thanks for that!
[XPERIA X8 General] revan17:

I found this over in the Sensation forums, and it works well/ looks good on our phone. I haven't tried the green one. I used Root Explorer to put .zip in /system/ customize/ resource, renamed to Sprint_bootanimation.zip, and changed the permissions to match the original Sprint_bootanimation.zip (renamed to Sprint_bootanimation.zip.bak)

So csn anybody help me? Im trying the blue one, I pushed it to system/customize/resource....renamed it Sprint_bootanimation.zip changed permissions to match the sprint_downanimation.zip....and I only get a black screen when rebooting phone

SHOTS FIRED!!! From 3 Dimensions!
[HTC EVO 3D] ducky1131:
Maybe try downloading the bootanimation again? Sounds like you're doing everything else right...... I have seen that some roms have the bootanimation in /data/local.
[HTC EVO 3D] bigmase23:
Added the blue one, looks nice, just need to add a sound to it, lol

Thanks given!
[HTC EVO 3D] Dave2582:
There's a zip file on the 3rd page of that thread. Is that okay to flash through recovery?
[HTC EVO 3D] ducky1131:
I wouldn't just because it was made for another phone. If you decide to try it, make a nandroid backup first!
[HTC EVO 3D] Dave2582:
I'm just having trouble covering the basics. I try renaming the original animation to .bak, but I'm getting denied. I can't swap files through Astro or ES Explorer.
[HTC EVO 3D] codito:
It's just a boot animation, doesn't matter if it was made for the G1.
[HTC EVO 3D] c01e:
I got time to loose, Ill try the green android one and report back once done...

Hmmm, Installed without issues, But made no change on my evo. Still has the ViperRom boot anim.
[HTC EVO 3D] Dave2582:
Yeah, I flashed the blue one through recovery with no problem, but no changes were made.

I do like the animation and hope to get it on my phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] ducky1131:
You have to mount the system as R/W to make changes. Also, not all roms have the bootanimation in the same place and/ or named the same thing (i.e. a Sensation bootanimation flashed through recovery isn't going to replace one named Sprint_bootanimation.zip).
[HTC EVO 3D] Dave2582:
Alright,

So after I remount, I can pull the original zip from /system/customize/resource

The new animation is on the sdcard. What's the proper syntax to push?

adb push / sdcard/Sprint_bootanimation.zip /system/customize/resource?

I got it, nevermind...

I just switched out the files from my PC once I pulled the original file.

It works now.

It would be cool to be able to select your choice and see the results out of everyone who has voted on that question...like a poll.

For instance, I select option A

I am then shown, for example, "40% of 120 players chose option A. 60% chose option B."

It would make the game more interactive.
[Android Apps and Games] TheWhiteBandito:
I too would like that. However, I'm not sure what exactly that would require. Obviously it would need a server and a database to keep the records, but I would have to revamp most of the app because it's all local right now. If you're familiar with setting up something like that, pm me!

Very nice time killer lol. I just wish the questions didn't repeat so frequently =/ also, add more questions! People will love this app. Submit it to the market =)
[Android Apps and Games] TheWhiteBandito:
Thank you! As for the questions repeating, I'm going to work on a solution to that, but for now, it's simply generating a random number and picking the corresponding question. There are almost 200 questions, so I don't think repeating should be a huge problem, but once I release it on the market, there will be even more questions so repeating will be less of a problem.
[Android Apps and Games] Royal King:
I press new question once I get a new Q then I get the same question again after 2 tries :(
[Android Apps and Games] TheWhiteBandito:
Hmm, that is an extremely rare case. I just updated the app, it is now available on the Market! So update there. As I add more and more questions, the chance of getting a duplicate one gets smaller and smaller. As it is in its early stages, I don't have a method for checking for duplicates yet, but I am working on one!

#mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock4 /system

then:

cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework/

#reboot (bootloop posibility if framework doesnt match)

Poor Battery Life

Install latest firmware , turn of wifi when not using , try to charge with wall Charge some times data cable don't charge the properly, And don't forget to clean Ram after using apps , it helps to reduce load on device.

Compass doesn't work anymore
