[Motorola Droid RAZR] in_dmand:
Have been searching around to see if there is such a thing, but I can't find anything. Does anyone know if it would even be possible to make an app to make screen brighter than the factory max setting? I know it must depend, at least to some extent, on the hardware... but I doubt they actually max it out at the factory... i'm just sayin =) would be nice to have in bright sunlight!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] !nstaGib:
I would imagine you could increase the brightness by upping the voltage of whatever controls it, but I'm not sure if there is a hardware cap or not. I doubt it would be very safe for the hardware though...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] in_dmand:
yeah good point... i have no idea but wanted to see if anyone else did! i guess you would probably have to worry about "burn in" or "imprinting" ( I guess it would be called) too...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] !nstaGib:
No, because it's only the backlight. But it certainly wouldn't be /good/ for the phone at all. But I haven't developed anything for the phone, and am somewhat new to the scene, so don't take my word alone on it :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LOCKDOC_UA:
Looking for some app/mod but to reduce the minimum brightness )

Any ideas?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] onslaught86:
AMOLED screens don't have backlights. :)

It's not so much burn-in you have to worry about as burn-out - the individual LEDs are prone to do that if they have to display the same image or colour for long periods of time. Blue, for example, will burn out the fastest. There's a lot of discussion that went on around AMOLEDs for the earlier phones that used the screen tech, like the Nexus One and the SGS.

As for decreasing brightness, Screen Filter is the way to go.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MattyOnXperiaX10:
There is nothing for this

Ask us any Android Related Question @FeraLabsDevs on Twitter
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Narc0lept1cN1nja:
Screen Filter. I've been using it for a when I read before I sleep. Very simple, good app.

Even if you do manage to find something to increase the max brightness, I wouldn't. There are usually caps on those things for a reason.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] gerelee:
not a problem ... i experienced 'burn-out' SEVERAL years ago :p

seriously though, compared to my fruit phone, the maxx leaves a little to be desired in direct sunlight. it's ok, but just could be better. in fact, i almost switched back to my 4s because of that ... bought a mophie juice pack air yesterday and thought ... oh yeah, 2 days of battery, even more than my maxx. .. then i see that ICS is allegedly hitting in a few days so figured i would wait it out. i can always return the mophie!!!

[Motorola Droid RAZR] tk76:
I also use screen filter for additional dimming for nighttime. Juice Defender Ultimate also offers reduced band augmented brightness, although I don't know if their augmented brightness is any brighter than stock (probably not.)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] r4zrm4xxx:
RAZR stock brightness is crazy bright why would you want that your screens probably going to overheat if you go above the manufacturer settings
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
It hurts my eyes if I steer too long with max bright.

To make it brighter you'll need a moded kernel, but such thing wasn't released for razr yet
[Motorola Droid RAZR] MattyOnXperiaX10:
Such thing will never be released on ANY PHONE

Phones Should Really have the Battery Life of The DROID RAZR MAXX
[Motorola Droid RAZR] pedrotorresfilho:
What you mean? That isn't custom kernels?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] IOmega666:
Is there any app the change screen mode? Like more vivid colors, movie like colors and things that that, i miss that feature of my Galaxy S2 (was stolen from me while riding the train the other day) so i bought a DROID RAZR, but the thing i miss is the screen of my S2, the white is not white here is like a yellow thing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] CaFFeiNe666:
1) you are talking of low light, cause if you raise it, white will become much more whiter...

2) white on sgs2 is not white, is blueish... simply some people recognizes blueish white whiter than yellowish, is just subjective... but no one of both has a perfect whiter... if you want real colors, you have to go on ips based screens, not amoled ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Choose a username..1:
For lowering brightness, I use this app called Easy on the Eyes. It can reduce your brightness from the original lowest setting. If you have a mac, you can find it on the app store.

You need to follow steps 6-27 of the rooting guide,

I just shattered and ruined the screen on my Evo 4G and I have no visual feedback from the screen, but the phone still boots up. I had it rooted (revolutionary) running CM7, and I want to turn S-ON and restore to stock before I take it in to Sprint. Any suggestions on what I should do?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwa542:
you actually dont need to do that because sprint cant even tell that its rooted with the screen being shattered and all, but but if you need to watch this video on how to un-root the htc evo:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEvozdRUIVg
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nubbleet:
I can't use the screen, so I don't think that UnRoot method is possible because it looks like I need to set the phone to HTC Sync mode.

Any other suggestions anyone?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cwa542:
if theres no way for anybody to see the screen then sprint wont even know that its rooted, because when the get the phone, they look at it, then they check it the warnty is voided (in your case the cant tell) then they repair the phone and send it back, so you could just send it in as is
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] savoca:
Yeah, they have to fix the screen to see if it's warranty is voided anyway, wouldn't it be odd if when they repaired it and booted up they discovered it was rooted, and then smashed your screen again and sent it back? :p
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nubbleet:
Ok, should I deal directly with the warranty company because they can send me one overnight, or should I take it to the sprint store and have them deal with it?

And also could someone post some screenshots of clockwork mod so I can try and blindly navigate through and make a nandroid?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
You don't want to restore a nandroid from your old phone to your new phone. You can, but be sure to not restore wimax if it's a new phone. If you do without wimax then you might still have some problems.

If you used unrevoked to root it's pretty easy to unroot. You can always just flash a PC36IMG RUU and leave s-off so it's not obvious if they repair it. If you're going through insurance it'll be $100, so if you're paying that you don't need to unroot. Don't know if Sprint can or will do repairs or how much it costs.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Klown80:
If you have a broken screen, as long as debugging is on and it shows up under adb devices when using adb, try android screencast. Just Google it to find it or pm me for file.

Basically it will show you phones screen on your computer but debugging MUST be on and showing under adb devices for it to work.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antwan*:
Their policy is that if it's the end user's fault (you dropped it and broke the screen), they must charge the deductible. Pretty much all end user hardware problems trigger the 100 deductible.

Anyway, like others have said, they will receive the phone and replace it regardless because of the broken screen. However, if you're worried you could report it as lost (you still pay the 100 deductible) and wait for your replacement. I believe that may constitute as fraud though seeing as how you haven't lost your phone. The risk and choice falls on your hands.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sitlet:
Yea, if you are dealing with Asurion, no need to unroot, they don't care what you did to your phone, as long as you pay the deductible.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
I don't know if its possible but can you make a sense ics launcher? if so anyone want to give it a shot?
[HTC Amaze 4G] EclipzeRemix:
a skin or theme for 3.6 is usless if we dont even have a rom for it

Launcher for Sense 3.0 and above is almost impossible as it requires some complex scripting. no luck no were
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Like, it doesnt have to be sense but have that look. Like ICS Go launcher its not ics but it looks like it is.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
Phoenix Launcher gives you a taste of it. But its still buggy as its still in development stages. Also it should be pushed as a /system/app so you can put widgets on the screen.

If you can get ICS Launcher from the market to work then that also gives you a taste.

I wouldn't recommend either launcher for daily use.
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Isn't Phoenix Launcher like the AOSP ICS?
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
I thought that's what you meant...sorry
[HTC Amaze 4G] TramainM:
Oh! Sorry yeah i see where that is confusing. I wanted it to have like a sense look. Like be like Go launcher or Phoenix launcher but with that sense dock bar ect.

Miui V4 T959 Vibrant from 360 Productions

This is a complation of others work to make a working rom for the vibrant.

I've used the MIUIANDROID I9000 & CM9 as a base ported it to the VIBRANT.

I hope you like it? It's by no means perfect, but it's a work in progress.

And thanks to Tory Heal for the graphics :D

And new bootanimation by imilleson.

Installation Instructions :

Reboot into Recovery

Do a Nandroid Backup or your choice backup application (optional)

-Wipe data/factory reset

-Wipe cache partition/dalvik cashed

-Go into Mounts & Storage and Format /system (does not erase any sd data))

-Install the ROM

-reboot(first boot takes a bit)

-let sit 5 to 10 min

-reboot

-set up as you like

-reboot and use normal

The ROM comes with the Subzero 159cm color Kernel, but feel free to flash a different ICS one if you want.

But be aware I have used the latest cm9 nightly as a base so if you get "unknown baseband" you will need the ril revert.

GingerBread bootloaders recommend find ---> here

please READ the op for instructions it is not hard but is VITAL you do it per instructions.

Also base update to CM9's nightly 7/30

Issues that I know of..

-GPS needs work and may not work at all, (it works for me but it can be slow) ( feedback is fine but complaining will be ignored )

-Themes only work partly and will only be fixed by MIUI not me

themes now work better but need to use ones for miui ics not GB

Other stuff to watch out for...

Titanium Backup users should tick the Preferences > Troubleshooting settings > Follow all symbolic links option

Download Link :D

go thank Andy Thomas at miuiandroid without his work this rom would not be available.

Ok few issues I've noticed, download is kinda slow when on either edge network or 3g/h, Facebook is having issues loading (it might just be Facebook) and browser and music player has just frozen and quit, not sure why. I still love the ROM! About time we got ics for the vibrant!
[Vibrant Android Development] Crash1014:
I'm not having any of these issues. I don't use the Facebook app because it hogs my battery. I use "FriendCaster" for my Facebook. My download speeds are great on 3G and I use the music player all the time. Have you tried another browser like Opera or Chrome? This might sound dumb, but did you reboot and see if it fixes these issues and did you follow the op with the 5 - 10 minute rest period after flash?
[Vibrant Android Development] jrongi1:
Thanks for the feedback, I have noticed dl speeds are not as good as gb was. We will start work on the fine tuning of things once it has stabilized a bit more. Until then we would just be poking around in the dark.

Miui music player has never been my favorite, you can try others from the market. (n7player is a good one) as for the browser I like it and have had no trouble, and don't use the FB app.
