Hotplugx will disable a core when the screen is off or when there is low system load. Depending on your kernel/governor choice, other governors may do it also. On leankernel, for instance, interactivex will disable a core when the screen is off, but not on low system load.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Hungry Man:
Ok, thank you.

I haven't done any comparisons of before/ after since I undervolted/ underclocked first thing. But I was browsing for hours while listening to music while talking to a friend with GTalk. talked for about 1.5 hours with someone, Left it on overnight (10 hours), woke up, used it to talk (voice to text) to someone via GTalk, and it's 3:25PM right now and I still have a fair amount of battery life left.

I'd heard mixed things about the battery on this so I'm happy.

My voltages:

1650: 1300

1520: 1250

1350: 1175:

1200: 1125

920: 1000

700: 925

350: 900

First install Font Changer from the market.

Once installed, open Font Changer from your app drawer once so that the .fontchanger folder will be created on the sdcard.

Then visit the abyss of fonts ==>Here<==

CAUTION: Some fonts will not be completely compatible with your phone.

I am not responsible for you causing problems to your phone. You take all the risk in doing this.

Default Android Font

View attachment 1220564

Download your font(s) to your computer.

Unzip Font on the computer.

Plug your phone into your computer and choose Media Sync.

Once prompted on computer, choose Open Device to View Files.

Then Double click phone

Double click .fontchanger

Drag and drop new font (needs to be the ttf file extension)

On phone, change back to charge only.

Go to the Font Changer app.

The app will find your new font.

Tap on new font you want installed and then click Apply.

Then you will get a Reboot prompt. I could not get the prompt to work, so I backed out of the app and then I rebooted with the power button.

Once rebooted, your new font will be installed!!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
Do you know which fonts you can change wirhout sending phone into bootloop i got most of mine changed just cant get things like bold or italicised fonta to take the new fonts and anytime i try adjusting the ones i think it is i bootloop

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] v01rider:
i am not sure. ive tried a few and some are not completely compatible. so far, the ones ive changed to, have not caused a boot loop.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] henslo:
Thanks, but I'll stick to the easiest way without having to worry about bootloops. Use Romtoolbox by jrummy install font reboot done! Huge selection of fonts too

:p
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] v01rider:
no worries. yes, ive used rom toolbox. but the site in the op has much much more chooses!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
You dont have to use a comp to just dl the fonts you know just use es to unzip onto the sd card then in romtoolbox search for fonts on sd card and in font changer or w e its called just move the .ttf to the folder the app created for fonts so all that extra work with the comp is unnessecary

Tux approves of my EVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wileout:
I also prefer the rom toolbox way but i was wandering under preferances which fonts it was safe to change i.e. droidsans bold or roboto italic things like that i figured out most like i said just having a tough time with the others.....oh well maybe ill play around with it and figure it out

Not sure if you guys have seen it but the Illumination Bar app by rundgong can be used to keep the softkey touchpad lights always on if the screen is on. So basically the lines under the touchpad symbols will always be lit if your screen is on which makes it much easier to hit the right symbol in the dark.

Can also use it to have those lights act as another notification light for various apps like sms, email, missed calls and more. Check it out.

after flashing to ics I'm having issues with it...so I uninstalled it.

the app asks you to enable it in accessibility, after doing so...on browser (dolphin) "talk back" likes to read everything aloud and I don't have it enabled. As soon as I disable Illumination Bar Notification in accessibility the problem goes away. it seems enabling in accessibility doesn't make a difference.

Next issue, recently the led lights don't want to turn off... its seriously drained my battery and on charger it heats up to 106F

If you 're talking about the led its supposed to flash for notifications. If you're talking about navigation buttons they're probably flashing because you have notifications turned on. Turn that feature off. I just use the app for keeping them on when screen is on.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Guregnack:
So.... Why does this need permission to read my sms/mms content? or my contact data?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] tribalartgod:
Because this app is also used for notifications for SMS/MMS. So in order for it to know when to flash for said incoming SMS/MMS, it has to be able to read them. (Not read their contents...Just read that one has been received.)
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Guregnack:
Uhhhh.... from my understanding, the receive function is for knowing if there is a mms or sms.

Reading allows the content to be "read".

Right?

Off topic, but Battle.net will give you back your stuff. And if you don't have one, spend the few dollars for the authenticator... Or if you don't wanna spend the money, get the one for your phone from the PlayStore. :D

(If you replace your Rom, REMOVE the authenticator from your Battle.net account. After you are done all your flashing and mods, then put it back. I learned that the hard way)

While it does work for the most part. It asks for way to many permissions for my comfort. All I want is the button lights to stay on when the screen is on. You don't need access to my contacts, or need to know where I am, or internet access. They're has got to be something simpler. In the mean time I will use this, behind a firewall.

Look in sys/class/leds

I've been playing with things in there as I want my notifications leds to be dimmer, but I can't make it stick after a reboot.

You can change brightness of bottom bar, notification leds and screen backlight in there, look at the max current file.

Be careful tinkering with backlight values though, I inadvertently turned mine off! Fortunately I have notifications toggles with brightness bar so managed to get it back!

Hope this helps!

Also you could mod the software, search the themes&Apps section for what files to edit for your phone.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Toledo_JAB:
There should be a file controlling the electrical current for the bar.

This is from my notification led brightness control init.d file

echo 17000 > /sys/class/leds/green/max_current

If I echo zero, the leds will not light

I have the Ion so I dont have bar but I can control the capacitive button leds. So you should be able to control bar.

You will need to be de-odexed with support for init.d boot scripts.

You can test values by direct editing of the max_current value in file and save. It will reset on next boot without init.d

HELLO "Toledo_JAB" et al...

I know it has been almost a full year since the above post but I am in need of some information, please!

I have an Xperia Ion running a modified ROM, based on stock: "Sirius /Z2 Full Port"

I have been trying to get the "capacitive button leds" to light when the screen is on - just as has been discussed in this thread - and I tried the "Illumination Bar Notification" app. It did nothing. None of the other "apps" or Xposed modules I've tried have worked either.

I'm fairly Xperia-enced (LOL!) at modding and hacking but can't get this particular thing to work.

Toledo - you mention that you ARE able to get the button backlights to work...I'd like to have them for notification reminders also but for sure it would be great to get them to come on when screen is on.

Have also tried editing the build.prop. Got that from the init.d thread. Other tweaks from that thread worked fine but NOT this one! :frustrated:

CAN YOU HELP?

THANK YOU in advance.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Not very customizable, but does the job perfectly.

Get Xposed, then Gravity Box. Install them and set them up. Then, go to Display Tweaks. In Button Backlight Mode, choose Always On While Screen Is On, and tick the Button Backlight notifications. You can't choose the speed, neither time, but it works as it says: It blinks when you have a notification.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jebep:
HI!

Thanks for the quick response & input!

Interesting that you should detail that option! I'm already using GravityBox and have tried that tweak but it just doesn't work on my Ion (LT28h, was LT28at, LockedBootloader but all other unlocked, rooted, etc... but NOT deodexed if that matters)

Lots of the other GravityBox tweaks are working perfectly but NOT that particular one! IDK why?

ANYBODY?

THANKS!
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] Felimenta97:
Sorry. Yeah, maybe there's a difference between S and Ion regarding that? I'm not sure what though...

[General Topics] gderreck:
I suppose this topic has been beaten to death, but I would appreciate the wisdom and advice from the users of this forum. I am new to android, having just upgraded to an HTC Raider with Bell Mobility in Canada. The phone came originally with Gingerbread, with an optional upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich. Eagerly, and without thinking I immediately upgraded. Please be patient, I am getting to the point :)

I drive a truck for a living and require hands free. Stopping for messages or calls is too time consuming. I am currently using Sonalight Text By Voice. It works on my phone (most of the time), but only covers 3 of the 4 main functions I require by voice (voice dialing, SMS reading, SMS composition). The fourth, caller ID, is not available in the app. I am using this with a Jawbone ERA in the truck, but the truck is so loud, the app can't hear my voice over the noise. I am considering purchasing a Motorola finiti headset, as it has stealth mode, which I need in my truck; and it has caller ID built in for contacts. I realize that the finiti has not been well received by many, but I'm thinking with stealth mode, my voice apps and callers will be able to hear me over the noise in the truck. I spoke to Motorola and was advised that stealth mode can be turned on when not on a call, to communicate with the phone. I hope that wasn't "motospeak". If Motorola was blowing smoke when they said stealth mode can always be on, perhaps you can let me know.

On the software side, I have downloaded everything that even smells like a voice caller ID app. So far nothing works with my phone over bluetooth. Many of the more popular apps (Enhanced SMS & Caller ID, etc) advertise the fact that their apps will not work with bluetooth in ICS. Given this situation, I feel rather foolish for upgrading to ICS without thinking about the consequences.

This has been a rather long post from an android newbie. I am hoping that you can show me the way to a solution, or tell me there isn't one and say "stop banging your head against the wall".

I'd like to thank you all in advance for any help you have to offer.

As the developer of Enhanced SMS & Caller ID, I can add some more info. This feature appears to work on Nexus devices but not any others (in our app with specific settings mentioned in my FAQ). I have created some bug reports in the AOSP and invite everyone else to add their comments to thw report so that Google takes it seriously. This is a very important feature for those in vehicles and with accessibility issues.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BParisian:
To start off I'm sorry if this is a bit of a newb question, I'm rather new to this level of coding and hacking so please be gentle. :)

Basically my desire is to be able to get the screen dimmer than you can make it with the original settings.. From what reading around I've done my guess as to accomplishing this would be messing around in my phones kernel, as (I seem to understand it anyway) is the bridge between the the software and the phones hardware.. so how would go about modding the kernel in order to achieve my goal? And if I'm just completely wrong and it has nothing to do with the kernel how would I go about doing the mod anyway?

And also if its not to much of a hassle I'd prefer someone showed.me how to do this myself rather then have some code guru swoop in and throw out amagical zip for me to flash. As id like to learn more about.my phone and how to work on it in the progress of doing this..
