[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] abe5:
Hey, guys. I just wanted to share this with y'all because I've noticed that some of you do not like bright LEDs. Truth is, I don't, either. :silly:

The scripts are pretty simple; I will let you guys customise them to your liking.

Note: The following has been tested on MikTouch 0.7 only; I am not sure if it will work on ICS or JB.

But that is not a problem. If needed, simply locate the brightness files and modify the scripts. It works fine on GB, ICS and JB.:good:

Prerequisites: Root access, Script Manager

Disabling the backlight for the front buttons (Home, Menu and the likes):

echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-microp/leds/button-backlight/brightness
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-microp/leds/button-backlight/brightness

Re-enabling the backlight for the front buttons (Home, Menu and the likes):

chmod 222 /sys/devices/platform/leds-microp/leds/button-backlight/brightness
echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-microp/leds/button-backlight/brightness

Disabling keyboard backlight:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness

Re-enabling keyboard backlight:

chmod 222 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/brightness

Disabling ALT and CAPS LEDs:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/func/brightness
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/func/brightness
echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/caps/brightness
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/caps/brightness

Re-enabling ALT and CAPS LEDs:

chmod 222 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/func/brightness
chmod 222 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/caps/brightness

Dimming the keyboard backlight:

echo 20 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/currents
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/currents

Setting up:​

1. Make sure your device is rooted. Get Script Manager from Play Store.

2. Pick your desired functions from the list above.

For instance, if I want to disable the front buttons' backlight and dim the keyboard's backlight, I will choose this set of codes:

echo 0 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-microp/leds/button-backlight/brightness
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-microp/leds/button-backlight/brightness

echo 20 > /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/currents
chmod 444 /sys/devices/platform/leds-pm8058/leds/keyboard-backlight/currents

3. Open Script Manager and create a new script.

If you want to run the functions simultaneously, like in my case, put the codes in the same script. Otherwise, create a script for each function.

4. Save and open the script. Enable Root access (tap the skull and bones).

If you want to disable the backlight permanently, enable Boot.

5. Run the script and... Good Lord, your eyes will no longer bleed when you use your phone in the dark.

Thanks for reading. :highfive:
[Hardware Hacking General] Burban502:
So I had bought three Stratospheres for cheap (bundle auction), hoping that I'd be able to pick up another cheaply with a good screen or bad glass+good LCD. However, beings I've not taken one apart to that extreme I wasn't aware how hard it'd be to separate those pieces :P At any rate, they all work fine otherwise, I know at least 2 boot to Android since I eventually get the haptic vibration indicating it'd reached the unlock screen. I had also hoped that at the very least the Wiki would've been right about HDMI out, but it's hard to find out what all have full support (the Epic 4G [D700] I got instead for example has it mostly but no one's able to get it working).

New screens cost the same as a working Strat, and seeing as I already bought an Epic after finding that out, I'm wondering what to do with these. I love tinkering, so being able to solder in a Composite, VGA, DVI, HDMI video connector and use it as a self-powered Stick Computer would be seriously awesome.

I'll gladly take hi-res PCB photos, with a DSLR and ample (non reflecting) light, if folks want to help tackle this :) Hell, for that matter... if you've got the know-how and want give it a try, I will

give

you one of these Strats to see what you can figure out. These aren't like the Epic as far as PCB goes, either. That Epic is very tiny and a fraction of the phone's size, but these Strats are pretty much the full phone's length and width, so lots to play with lol

Anyways, hope someone knows a thing or two and we can figure a hack out!

Thanks.

EDIT: This just came to me...What about something like these, in conjunction with a ROM (preferably Odin flashable) that has USB Hub support?

http://www.monoprice.com/products/subdepartment.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10114#1011403

Unfortunately it isn't driverless, BUT it does list Linux support, at least on the VGA model! More than I'd like to spend given the project, but we can call that Plan Y (Plan Z being: buy a new screen lol)
[Hardware Hacking General] Rebellos:
Ez way - how about flashing with some latest ROM and enabling tvout (with help of screenshots from DDMS)

Then you can connect any cheap stuff decoding pal/secam and maybe an otg keyboard/mouse + power chord through hub or straight to the batt slot.

The tryhard way - you could try to exploit screen flex slot. You should find 16/24bit rgb dpi'ish interfrace there + 2 i2c/spi busses and some gpios. Maybe utilising it as 16bit rgb going to sort of converting circuit could leave you with like ~15gpio pins for mostly any kind of stuff u want (spi, i2c, irqs). You need a good breakout for that and gotta consider high frequency layout (as rule of thumb, try to make wires between consecutive ICs as short as possible and equal length)

Capabilities and possibilities are unlimited. Just human's imagination and life is.

Id be careful with usb-dvi converters. Might work. Might not. Check with otg keyboard or smth first. ;)
[Hardware Hacking General] Burban502:
So TVOut on the does actually Stratosphere work? (with a custom ROM, I mean)

You happen to know where to find such a ROM? I know that XDA doesn't have a Strat subforum :( I've looked high and low, and can barely find custom ROMs, let alone one that's TVout lol Everything is still Gingerbread based, but I suspect that doesn't matter since the hardware is from that time.

As for the latter, I actually hadn't realized that without a screen, I'd be without a MOUSE haha :eek: I was totally focused on it having a slider keyboard and somehow missed I'd still need a mouse :P Nevertheless, doing it myself would be pretty hard :\ I don't know that much about the finer details of hardware, at least circuits of that complexity. Modding an analog audio circuit with new capacitors or an OpAmp is one thing, but that's straight forward In-Out, Power-Ground lol

That isn't to say I wouldn't attempt it but I'm not sure exactly what would be needed. If it's LVDS, I do have an older 15" laptop screen that'd be cool to hack a Strat to use :cyclops: That's adding a bit more complexity to things though, at least to start with right out of the gate.
[Hardware Hacking General] Rebellos:
Sadly I dont know where to get Strat ROM. But I assumed that its HW is pretty much the same as I9000, except the additional keyboard, so aries kernel with patches might/should/could work. There shouldnt be any major problems in porting it. I would get these crappy Sammy sources for I405 and I9000, diff them and try to apply diff on kernel_samsung_aries repo of CM.

About TVOut - it is matter of one or two gate ICs and a jack sensing onboard, as S5PC110 has built in tvout signal generator. So I would expect HW to support it.

Edit: There should be some tvout handling in original kernel sources if it is supported. Though, knowing Sammy, there might be aswell tvout driver enabled but HW not wired at all to support it.

So I just recently lost my root I made a thread here it was fixed in a couple days due to you guys :D. Maybe you can help me with another issue I am currently having.

So let me get started, I really wanted to update my software and since I was rooted I was not able to do it, when I temp unrooted I still was not able to get software update, It was really bothersum so I found a program called "Mobile ODIN Pro" and with that I went to the links below just take out the (DOTCOM).

http://www.sammobile(DOTCOM)/firmwares/

http://www.youtube(DOTCOM)/watch?v=T-KLM2oqSgM

With those links there is only one thing I did not do in that video, He said I need to Wipe data and cache, I did not check mark that because why don't I just factory reset instead? I did select Wipe Dalvik Cache though. Now it seems my phone is a tad laggy, and some of my apps give me that "so and so app has crashed. hit report or ok, So I deleted the apps, and now when I try to redownload the apps it either asks me to delete some stuff first to navigate, so that tells me some of the program is still there but I'm not able to find it, Another issue with that is it says insufficient disck space to download that app even when I have many GIGS of free space...

I'm wondering if I should just do a factory reset re-root my phone start from complete scratch, I would like to be able to used pandora, google chrome, etc etc. Which programs would you guys suggest for me to download to backup my apps/settings for the apps I know are not corrupted? And or if you know of a fix.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
Factory reset , wipe caches. 're Odin ..I told you in your other thread what to download and flash . you will use Odin on your pc or mobile Odin on your phone.

I'm not trying to be hard on you. But you need to know how to do basic things(getting into recovery) before you go messing with your phone...:(...... if you need help you can pm me.

Anyone run into this problem running sense tv? Completely stock at&t
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] timbercoyote:
I've seen this when using an iffy internet connection. The screen shot shows you on the EDGE network, so I'd imagine that's the issue. Connect to a solid wifi network and see if that fixes the problem.
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] luigi311:
I am connected to WiFi
[AT&T HTC One (M7)] timbercoyote:
Ah! So you are... so you are. Then you, like me, may be looking for a new internet provider soon. Or perhaps the wifi you're on is having issues.

During my testing so far, I have only seen this on my (somewhat shoddy) wifi connection, and not on the much better LTE connection. That said, it also could be the HTC server is experiencing difficulties.

Assuming the issue is intermittent, it is almost certainly a problem with the network or the service, not your phone, and there's nothing much you can do about it on the phone itself.

This tablet is only a 4 months old and the power button is sticking on now. Its the left side that sticks. The right side unsticks it (sometimes). I've temporarily fixed it by first cleaning it with a q-tip dipped in some rubbing alcohol while pressing it a few times then drying it with the other half then I put one drop of oil from my electric razor on a fresh one and pressed it a few times and now its working again and isn't sticking. But I predict I will have to send it back for repair eventually because of this problem. Good thing I've installed "volume in notificatons" so I rarely use the volume keys, preserving them for recovery.

Anytime I purchase a new phone, it is the time to put on a new ZAGG. I'm willing to try out other brands, but of course this is the usual in your face brand available at many local retailers.

Best Buy was ready with a complete line from original to smudge proof to high definition. They didn't have the front and back which is pretty common. ZAGG's site never seems to list every combination available either.

Anyways since running one of my Note 2's naked to prove a point, I've gone back to putting something on a new phone shortly after unboxing it. I don't care how many Youtube videos there are about Gorilla Glass this or that. A nice pair of keys or some good ole American currency in the form of coins seems to be a powerful combination against a phone.

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] ap3604:
Just my opinion but if you are recording a video of a screen protector installation and you cut out the tough/problem moments (at 4:13, 4:36, and 6:00), it makes the video less helpful. I personally would rather watch a longer video and see how you deal with the tough moments instead of you cutting them out since that makes the installation seem easier than it actually is to put on.

Of course that's just my opinion, trying to give constructive criticism to help with future videos, feel free to throw it in the trash if it doesn't help at all or I'm just talking crazy ;)
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chrisngrod:
There really weren't any issues. I did cut some of the constant squeegee moments out IIRC. Use application fluid liberally and go to town.

Thanks for the feedback though. I'll make a version where I don't remove a second for you to look at.

I'll also be sure to watch your videos for guidance in the future. Just post an example here.

EDIT: 4:13 just pull it up to align it better. Just like starting all over again. 4:16 I let go of it once it was visually aligned. 6:00 probably should have shown more but just used the squeegee a lot. When you use liberal amounts of application fluid, it makes alignment easy. You just have more to squeegee.

Here's that 46 seconds I cut out....

[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vampyren:
Not sure you read the manual but you were suppose to turn the phone off and let it be off like 12 hour for the water and bubble to go away. And also not really good to spray right on the phone as it goes into the holes. Its right in the manual. I just installed the non HD but i think the HD might look even better. SGP is the best to be honest but for the time being i use this until i get a hold of Spigen .
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chrisngrod:
Not sure if you listened to the video, but I talked about that for 30 to 45 seconds.

I keep it on to check for dust trapped in there.

Premium phones aren't too hydrophobic. If you choose to spray directly, pay attention when you in squeegee.

If you want someone's real feedback who has installed them several times with no dust trapped in between layers and no bubbles, watch the video. If you want to read a manual... Read the manual. Any company that did suggest you to spray the device would have a huge liability for doing so. No company in their right mind would even hint at it.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] vampyren:
They dont recommend it for a good reason! And you spray it right into the speaker even which is not ok. Sure you dont get dust or bubble but is that primary concern? Still when you put something like this some people will take it as its ok to do so and might end up damaging their phone.

And saying in the video if you get away with it is pretty stupid phrasing, what does that mean even? Do you mean its luck so take a gamble with your brand new phone? If you dont this many times than you should know better :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] chrisngrod:
Spend your life reading manuals. Obviously you didn't need to watch the video, and obviously you didn't originally or you would have heard what I said. I'll continue to give advice based on what I've done in life as long as it dose not put people in harms way. I rather show a worst case scenario vs someone watching and wondering what happens if they accidentally got a lot of liquid on the screen.

I'm no cell phone designer, but I'm willing to bet the speaker grille was designed in a manner to resist water. Actually that the whole assembly was. We have sweaty people using phones, people in downpours using phones, etc. The flagship device has to take this into account or lose to a competitor's phone. Despite all of this, I still took the time to explain that I was deviating from the manual.

I guess I should go rip the supercharger out of my car as well because I just voided the warranty on it by installing it. Car manufacturer doesn't believe I should run boost. I am one of those people who buys a new car and modifies it. Perhaps you fall into the category of those who wait for the warranty to run out before touching it.

Yes, I blocked you from the Youtube channel because you were just voting down my videos. When you commented from another username you did the same thing again. I make these videos to support my family. I have a baby girl that was born on the 24th. You also fall into the category of those who are willing to criticize, but you don't have a valid Youtube channel of your own. If you want to do something productive, make videos and show things from your perspective instead of coming to my channel to bash me.
