[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Sistum Id:
I think the OP wants something similar to what's in Cyanogen roms. I think he wants to adjust how bright or dim it gets on certain light conditions. I think I saw an app called Luminous or something. Now I'm drawing a blank.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] princeasi:
I'm looking for something like this also.

I'm just sayin!

Maybe if you found the file that holds the values, you could pull and push the file till you find what you like?

EDIT:

Try this, maybe this will work. I think this is what I saw once.

Lux Auto Brightness

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.vito.lux&hl=en

I think I might give it a try later on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xtremepsionic:
Juice defender has an option to set the brightness all the way from -80% to +150%. So autobrightness would have a larger (or smaller, if you prefer) range.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] analgesic:
Have it. Recommend it. Slick app from a great responsive developer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] myowin:
just use the notification bar

Hey guys

I found out that if you tap the notification bar on the top and slide your finger left or right, you can adjust brightness as you like. I think that is the easiest and quickest tip I found on this forum. not sure where I found it.. hope that helps.. :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] PMG 705:
^^ only works if the brightness toggle is off.. Awesome feature on sammys..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] TLJester:
There is an app i am using that allows you to adjust the levels that the auto brightness use.

Called: LogGraph

it gives you a graph divided by roughly 12 steps of the brightness sensor so 0-12.

you can set the brightness level at each step the default (which i am using) is roughly:

Sensor% - Brightness level%

0-0

10-5

20-10

30-15

40-20

50-25

60-30

70-40

80-60

90-80

100-100
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] jordanishere:
Thanks I was wondering why it didn't work.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] onyx00:
Reviving a slightly older thread here for some feedback.

Lux is a great and well designed app; I've been having issues with it - it doesn't seem to sample from the sensor (light or camera) when it wakes up, even though that is how I set it. I sent an e-mail to the developer, so hoping he can help me out. I also found it hard to understand the "levels" both in basic mode, and the lux/luma in advanced mode. I came from Cyanogenmod (on an Evo 4g) so I understand how the sensor works, but for some reason, whether it be the GS2 or Lux, the sensor does not seem to pick up a lot of variation in ambient light. I can cover up the sensor with my finger and the value that is getting doesn't seem to go below 2.

So I'm still struggling to get the auto-brightness (with an app or with the factory algorithm) to work properly compared to what I was able to get on my Evo 4g w/ Cyanogenmod (which was perfect by the way - once I have it all set up, absolutely perfect auto-brightness).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] princeasi:
Actually I edited the framework-res.apk file and that did the trick. I tried lux before but it still didn't work like the default auto brightness.

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] davidemartindale:
I'm guessing this is something that can't be edited live or on the fly? It's got to be signed and flashed?

If that works, cool, but I'm totally hoping for an edit I can make live to system files from Root Explorer for instance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] princeasi:
Yes, currently this is the only way to achieve this. Supercurio mentioned in one of his post earlier that he was working on an app that would allow us to make these type of adjustments.

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] onyx00:
I believe you that Lux doesn't work like the factory auto-adjust...no matter what an app. developer does, you can't replicate the responsiveness of what would be in the framework.

Could you explain further the edits you did and what it corrected? I am a software developer and I can figure out the basics, just was looking for an idea of what you edited in there and the specifics to get me going.

Thanks in advance! :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] princeasi:
I basically followed what they did here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1235212 to decompile the apk. I made adjustments to the value that represents the brightness under the lowest lighting conditions. I slightly increased the brightness under that value to help mask the blobs under low lit conditions. Hope this helps.

I'm just sayin!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] onyx00:
Yeah, saw that last night and just finished. Will probably need to dial in the values a bit to find what is optimal for me.

I'll post a Framework for others to use once I get mine all set. This is definitely the way to go for adjusting autobrightness.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] G1ForFun:
Can't wait, sounds awesome. I wish my phone would never go below 40% brightness. Bad lines!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] fastfed:
i wish there was an app where i can simply press, and it goes to 100% then press again and back to auto... is this really that hard? lol

[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
If you are having issues and are getting phone unlocked in ADB but no choice to pick unlock phone. Just sits there in hboot and your phone is updated to 2.17 you will need to this http://www.filefactory.com/file/c19...216_NV_NV_spcs_1.42_release_233304_signed.exe

Use this it will fix your issue.
[HTC EVO 3D] mgarney26:
do i need to be rooted to install this?
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
Nope this is what fixed everyone else that had the issue I had to dig through the threads to see what worked for the few folks I helped.

Sorry for the delay been diggin for the info.
[HTC EVO 3D] mgarney26:
ok so i assume its just a file for the computer then or how does it work? sorry for the questions...im not a noob ....just new to the htc. and quite possible leaving my motorola droid razr for an htc phone...lol

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Budge72:
I've been noticing that for the last few days I can only get 2 bars anywhere in Dallas if the 4G-LTE symbol is present. If a call enterupts a data session and the phone drops to 4G, I get 4 or 5 bars. Is this normal? I used to get more bars and much faster internet.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Longcat14:
The tower probably isn't broadcasting at full strength, I'm at 2 bars on LTE constantly also.

I really don't care, because 1 bar of LTE is faster then 5 bars of HSPA+, and that one LTE bar is still more stable then HSPA+. :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Cyberguycpt:
What I notice is on LTE when I pull my phone out of my pocket I will have full bars of LTE then it will slowly drop down to one or two once I unlock the screen.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
What part of Dallas? I have not noticed anything significant in north d (Richardson Plano and north on 75)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Budge72:
I have noticed this all over north dallas, from the galleria area all the way to frisco. It wasn't like this a month ago. I use to get 4 or 5 bars and over 50 megabytes a second. Now I can only get 10 to 12 megabytes a second.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
I have noticed an average of about that as well. The key spots that got 45± still do though. Those are always within a few hundred feet of an obvious/visible tower tho

Bars could be a number of things. Using a network info app we found last month that the skyrockets bars are nowhere near accurate

Showing 1-2 bars where another att phone (tested with orig gs2 and an inspire) showed more bars but signal strength was identical
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] planoman:
I have not really been paying attention to my signal strength. I saw this thread earlier this morning. I took this screenshot at tollway and park in West Plano where I have always received 4 to 5 bars. Also checked several other places as I ran errands and did not noticed any differences. Did not run speed test.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Budge:
I was at Preston and Frankford today, and I finally started seeing 4 bars, and about 35 mb/s. But I was also at Hillcrest and Alpha, and saw only 2 bars.

Interestingly enough, I did notice that sometime I have more bars on my home screen, then they drop back down to 2 almost as soon as I open my apps, just like Cyberguycpt stated. Maybe it's a coincidence, but it sure didn't seem so.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
Mine have done that since release

...all over the nation
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Longcat14:
Hehe, you were at Preston and Frankford? I live behind the Tom Thumb there. xD

Anyways, I've noticed that mine does the same thing. It has 4 bars, till I unlock, then it slows drops down.

Meh, I still get good speeds, so it really doesn't phase me.

I'm sure hard-reset is a good idea, but if a bad manip occurs it can be upsetting...or with a flashy red background color for warning purpose...

actually, that is the main reason it isn't implemented in first release...

unsure how to exactly do that, yet.

I am not sure what's happening to my phone. I have the Google Nexus One. I'm running the CyanogenMod7.2.0 RC0, before i was running the CyanogenMod7.1.0 and before that Miuiandroid.

It was working perfectly and until a couple of days ago the camera and flash light stop working :( No matter what ROM i install it doesn't fix the issue.

1. When i select the Camera i am getting this error "Sorry! Activity Camera (in application Camera) is not responding."

2. When i select the Torch/Flash light it says its on but "No light".

3. With CyanogenMod the screen goes blank after a phone call :/.

I try so many different things and nothing seems to work. I wipe

Also when i flash Miuiandroid my phone keeps rebooting so i have to flash the CyanogenMod7, either way nothing fixed the problems.

Any ideas what could have cause these issues?

Need Help!

Hi mate, im in a very similar situation to yours where i think the original seller has claimed insurance on his phone after selling it to me. It was on ebay and he deleted the listing so there is no way i can trace it back to him. I did a checkmend report and got the same exact result as yours. The phone is locked to 3 and i am an existing customer to 3 so i was wandering if i should go and speak to them, but im afraid they may take it off me since i have no proof of purchase. Really stupid on ebays behalf to delete my older messages otherwise there would be hope. I dont think telling the police would help much either. i paid £350 for it and it came boxed up, and i bought it last year december/Jan.

Ok so i found his username and asked for the receipt which he said he dont have, also my hotmail has some 'little evidence' of us exchanging emails from his ebay account on my hotmail, do you think i can try and contact paypal? and have something done? it has been 11 months, my main concern is they might ask me to hand it in to the police and i dont want to lose out on £350!

Id like to know did the orange sim card work for you? did you manage to sell your phone?

Thanks in advance i know its a long story and ive asked so many questions but i thought you might understand my situation since you've gone through something similar.

I went through the process of changing my number through Verizon's website, and I am having problems programming my phone. I did *228 and hit 1 to reprogram and everything went fine. "Programming... SPL Unlocked" with the background music, then the automated voice telling me to please wait while my phone is being programmed.. then 5 seconds or so later my phone makes this stuttering noise like the phone is lagging and then it just shuts off and restarts.

I am not able to to program the phone successfully and I have no idea what it could be. My phone is unlocked and rooted with the Virtuous Affinity ROM.

If anyone could help me out I would really appreciate it. My phone is useless and I need it to function asap. The only thing I could think to do next is a hard reset, but I don't know what kind of implications that would have or if it's even necessary.

Thanks.
