Really cool app, so simple :) Thanx
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] erdoke:
Thanks for the app, I was just looking for this.

The program icon may need some upgrade, temporarily I changed to this one:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] papo:
I had mortscript on kaiser, switching backlight at preset time, morning/evening. working in background. was just thinking to change it to switch autolight off at night and set minimum and back on auto at morning.

Could make a cab and post it too if any interest.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ninja Jaiden:
Sweet app many thx
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] adeeb:
Quite useful , thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] asim_889:
thanks:) I have been surching for something like this.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] react:
Yes, that's it.

Well, that would make it two taps. As I see it, the on/off effect is visible enough. I use it mostly in the evening (to turn autobacklight off and have lowest possible backlight during night) and then in the morning to turn autobacklight back on so HD2 display is readable any time during day.

That's a good idea. I will to look at it when I have some time.

Do you have the icon as ICO file? I had some troubles with PNG to ICO conversion and that's the reason why there are sharp edges on current icon :-)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] simeezee:
thanks so much.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] react:
I did two minor improvements to this app. See first post for more.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ckinwing:
Thanks for the app
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] BoneMo:
autobacklight steps

its not working on Touch HD :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fanwater:
hee hee, thanks react

downloading...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] erdoke:
Sorry, but I just found this one, it's not my work.

However, I could convert it to ICO format, you may have a look. When removing the black background, it indeed gets sharp at the edges.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] d0ug:
Awesome app!

I always find myself turning off the auto brightness setting at theaters, clubs, bars, any other dark place.

The default dimmest setting with the auto brightness is still too damn bright for those environments. You feel like you have a spotlight in your face the entire time you're using the phone. I really wish the min value for the auto brightness could be adjusted, but this will do as well.

No more digging though the menus, or forgetting to turn the brightness back up and having to dig though the menus again in the bright daylight the next day barely able to see the screen.

Edit:

And no, im not one of those assholes that text away DURING the movie! lol
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fretjes:
Suggestion

Great app and use it a lot. But may I make a suggestion? It would be nice if the icon could change, maybe of colour or a other change. So you can see whether autobacklight is on or off. For me this is the only thing lacking. But again, a great sollution.

gr fred
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rugged96:
what a great app...thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rugged96:
Is there a way I can adjust the step change toggles...say rather than 10/50/100 but 20/50/100? or other increments. 10 is too dim for me and 50 is normally too bright for my everyday use.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ivwonka:
This works great on my TP2! Thank you for this gem. Really functional. I would have never found it in the Leo forums, but somebody pointed me here. Just add it to a quicklink and wala! Pure awesomeness
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jack_Surfer:
Hi guys,

How should I get these icons below to be used by this app ??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] erdoke:
The first one is already used by this app, but you can always change icons with JWMD Icon Changer (for example, there are other options too).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jack_Surfer:
Well, I use CSMI, but the icon changed into grey does not change after clicking it for changing the screen backlight.

So, it must be somewhere else.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] erdoke:
I guess you restarted the PDA or at least Manila. In case it's still not changed, you have to delete the (Manila) icon cache.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jack_Surfer:
@ erdoke

You are right. But, the icon has changed into mine after soft reseting.

What I mean is that it could be nice if the icon would change "on" or "off"

after clicking it, meaning to indicate if the autobacklight is "on" or "off".

But I guess it is not possible at all, unless a switch icon is made for that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] erdoke:
Oh, OK, now I see. I believe you are right and a switch icon function is needed in the app for that.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Raudi1:
In my opinion the switch should be integrated into CHT.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Rugged96:
any chance someone could explain what regedits I need to do to adjust the 10/50/100 settings?

i would really like a different scale.

thanks for any help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] t00ms:
I had a dream...

What would be perfect (for me) :

- A switch with icon changing (for each step)

- Possibility to switch between steps AND autobacklight with the same button

- Possibility to switch to lumos (great app), still on the same button

- Remove the notification ! "Backlight changed to XX%"

- Possibility to choose the steps (my sequence would be : 10, 60, 100, lumos)

It's not yet forbidden to dream...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
The thing I missed.. almost :)

I recently found out that it isn't possible to set the auto-backlight function for external and battery power independently. Because I like the HD2 on full backlight when I'm on external power and on auto when i'm on backlight this app. is filling in a great gap.

BTW can you write a little tool that switches the backlight to full brighness when you plug in a external power source and switches to "auto" when you plug off the source and run on battery power?

And O, one more thing, you should PM Co0kiemonster and ask if he integrates your troggle in his troggle collection.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] appelflap:
Yes.... you're right.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] andyk159:
On my HD2 I find that I get multiple processes running for these apps every time I action them. When unlocking I see a ghost outline of the pop up window on screen with no text. I then have to kill these processes off manually.

Anyone else seen this?

Running Elegancia 9.5 Rom with CHT 1.8.5
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fretjes:
I second this, if it's possible. My reason for asking is that it is not always possible to see (specially in bright lights) whether it's on or off by the intensity of the back-light. I use your app a lot when in navigation mode (IGO8)

Anyway thank you for letting us share this simple but oh so effective app.

Like the man said: simple ideas are the most beautiful.

fred
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] karaern:
very usefull application

tnx for the nice application. just wanna ask if its possible to control the backlight steps when its in external power mode not in battery or maybe to add another step icon that controls when its in external power mode only.

i am using this to control the night time backlight when using igo.

any advice pls
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Jack_Surfer:
I don't see any processes, and especially multiple instances here.

What are the names of these processes by you ??
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ir_Chan:
Thanks. Good application, useful to me.

Some suggestion, consider to further develop the followings:

Autobacklightstep2: by having more step e.g. 100,85,70,50,30,10.

Autobacklight-100 , Autobacklight-50, Autobacklight-10

Backlight program - with all your autobacklight options.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] bart3385:
Is there a way to turn the backlight permanently on? And then switch back to normal mode later?

I mean an app or something to quickly make the light stay on permanently. Not automatically switching off after specified duration.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tboy2000:
Great app and even better if you assign it to long press send key in settings, person, buttons option. Now in sunny weather I press and hold to get 100% backlight and in normal lighting I press it again to get dimmer screen. perfect. thanks!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Foggy79:

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] coukou:
I just Installed AutoBacklightToggle on my HTC Diamond 1 (using ROM MEMO 2.6.1.0).

I tested it in my office plugged into the mains and can't see any difference. How do i know if it's ON or OFF?

In fact, i wonder use it inside my car (

plugged

into the car battery) as GPS

Regards
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] erdoke:
There are different settings for both Auto and Manual backlight when running on battery or plugged into the mains. Please check these device settings first and adjust according to your needs. AutoBacklightToggle will switch between Auto and Battery modes in both cases.

Example 1.

Running on battery: Manual is set to minimum backlight. In this case this app will switch between automatic (light sensor controlled) and minimum backlight.

Example 2.

Running from mains: Manual is set to 100 % backlight. In this case AutoBacklightToggle will toggle between automatic (light sensor controlled) and maximum backlight.

I use it just the opposite way, 100 % manual setting when on battery (only for strong sunshine, all other cases with light sensor), but minimum when plugged in (usually during night).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] coukou:
TNX erdoke,

Still I'm in trouble when I launch AutoBacklight it runs then nothing. I can't see any icon or anyhing for manual setting.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] fretjes:
Icon change

erdoke,

All very well and your explanation is off course correct but that does not change the fact that you cannot see on the icon in what state the back-light is. And that is the basis of my suggestion in post #36 to make a change in the icon to be able to deter whether it is on or off.

Again I don't know whether this is possible or not but I have not received an answer. This does not mean that I'm in a hurry or try to press the developer but for me (and it seems for others as well) it is a point of some importance.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jasoncook79:
yea!

awesome idea man. nice job! thank you !!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arcades:
WOW! very nice app!! many thanks!!

react, could you make separated config for adjusting how many steps I want and at what % change backlight ?

I really never use 100% brightness and even 50% is too high.

For ordinary reading 30-40% is ok, for Sunny day 50-60%.

Would be very great if users could manually set percentage that they prefer :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arcades:
Agree, It would be good to show pop-up showing: "Automatic backlight enabled/disabled"
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] s2007:
Could you release mix this 2 programs?

Explanation how can work: when you run the program it adjusts your backlight from 10% to 50%, from 50% to 100%, from 100% to AutoBacklight, and from AutoBacklight to 10%. :eek:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dXsL:
THANK YOU!

until now, I applied 2 different registry keys I wrote when I wanted to turn it on or off :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] JesusIsLord:
Thank you for this neat small app. Great usefulness. Saving daily several clicks and moves to reach the Backlight screen.

Thank you and Blessings to you:)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] DimitrisTS:
thank you very much.! Great app!!

It would be nice if a toggle icon like the ones in CHT was possible...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] react:
Thanks for your comments. I am quite busy these days but I hope I will get back to your comments on weekend and prepare versions you requested.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] muhkuh1234:
Thanks so much for this useful app, the whole time I used a direct link to the appropriate settings page, but I still had to click the right box, so your way is so much easier!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mnementh666:
Thanks for this little application. Precisely what I wanted. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] cscott0108:
Something similar or mod

I use MyMobiler for my phone and use ActiveSync via bluetooth now this absolutely kills my battery so much so that i literally get about 6 hours on a single charge. Now i know this is a power hog by default So I got two power hog devices Now does anyone here know of an app that will turn the backlight off when I don't need it like working my phone via my laptop. If possible no backlight. I tried both apps that are here and both the step and the other one just bring the back light down to about 10%. I hoping there are some that need this function and Know of an app that does it, or something i can modify in this code to turn one of those apps that you made to bring down the backlight completely.

And It is a great program really and I like to use the 10% sitting at home when I'm reading books and browsing the net, but it's just this is one feature i'd like to see, the only one i found in their marketplace was a crappy one that does work, but it also does not display the homescreen when enabled for some stupid reason so i moved away from the marketplace.

thanks in advance
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] react:
I went over your ideas and did some improvements to AutoBacklightSteps app. You can set the steps or notifications by your own from now on. See first post for details.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xnifex:
just a suggestion: any time you update the first post could you put that date in the title as well so I can tell that it's been changed in my 'subscribed threads' list?

thanks

Thanks. I did not noticed it. Thread name updated.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] saxgr:
Time

Very Good application, i wonder if you can include 2 more functions:

1. auto-swith according to time(ex. auto in the morning & 10% in night hours)

2. Auto disappear of the notification after 3 sec.

And a llitle bug: i've set the steps: 10,A,100,A but it doesn't work(propably it is forbidden to give two same values)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mafesama1:
I love it !!!

I have set the adjustments to 0,A and NO notification.

During night periods I simply set it to 0 and I get no more glare.

Auto for the rest of the day.

Thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Mankul:
Is there such thing as 0% backlit?

I've set to 0% and 10%... doesnt seem to have any difference.

[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
what about app2sd? :(
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
If there are enough people wanting that feature I can implement it in a separate version.
[Click Android Development] manuvaidya:
yes... i want it lgstoin please... you rock buddy....

please include more & more features in ur next release including A2SD, FM & BT
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
what are the differences between your rom and a fyodor or modaco one? :D
[Click Android Development] svprm:
What abt video and Camera?

Working?
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
There is a fyodor AOSP which is very similar to this one. And the modaco one is a sense ui rom while this is based on vanilla android so no htc modifications.

Yes they are.
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
and nothing to do for bluetooth? :(
[Click Android Development] svprm:
Sorry for this Noob Question.

Another doubt,It is Based on 1.6 or 2.1?
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
It's based on 1.6.

On bluetooth no progress yet but no one is giving up.
[Click Android Development] svprm:
Thanks man.

Going to download and try it.
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
i prefer waiting for a2sd :D
[Click Android Development] Sargeros:
This ROM is really awesome, but it has the same problem of fyodor's : the keyboard is bad (Tattoo's screen is too little) and HTC_IME doesn't work properly :/
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
I actually like the normal android keyboard. Not that bad. Also maybe someone can try this.
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
should I create a petition for a2sd? :D
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
I'll make an app2sd version for both of my rom's. Maybe even tonight. So keep checking the site. :)
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
i've been checking since 4 o'clock xD

you are great!!!

what about your other rom? is it for the tattoo? :confused:
[Click Android Development] Sargeros:
I personally think that the default keyboard is too tiny...
[Click Android Development] _yen_:
Hi lgstoian,

tested yesterday on last fyodor, low resolution is not enough low for our little (QVGA) tattoo...

Bye

[Click Android Development] blackkn1ght:
great rom, but i've found two big problems with it: it won't recognize the headset (music plays through the speaker while the headset is plugged in) and when i turn of the screen while listening to music the song "skips" for a fraction of a second, which is pretty annoying... i've noticed this also with the latest fyodor rom.
[Click Android Development] Sargeros:
You should add the HTC_IME keyboard, like fyodor did, because I think that tour ROM is faster than fyodor's
[Click Android Development] MPodlesnik:
Why do you not post any picture of the rom ?
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
It's just vanilla android so it looks exactly like the android you see in the sdk.
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
and what about app2sd? :(
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
I'm stuck in a work related project for now. So wont be working on the roms till next week.

I think that the resolution is a little bit to high, is it possible to set it back to default?

and problems with wapper1 , works with swapper2 after reboot,

good rom thx , if you can fix commands in terminal and aps2sd that will be great !

reboot on googlemaps ! twice

android.process.acore force close

ugly"fyodor ZoomIn Botton"

rotation force close too ! android.process.acore
[Click Android Development] vultures:
if its any chat room (irc) to talk about this specific rom !?
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
Well as I still don't have as much free time as I want to spend on the rom I had the idea of turning it into a community ran rom. Host the files of the rom in a git repository where other people can add fixes, features etc. I'll package the rom once it's considered either stable enough. What do you folks think?

The version in the git will have all google apps removed.
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
so no bluetooth? :'(
[Click Android Development] TheSSJ:
Since it is based on a non-htc rom maybe it is possible to just use BlueFTP app???
[Click Android Development] lgstoian:
Bluetooth is based on fyodor one so file transfer should work.

Sorry forgot to answer that.
[Click Android Development] alberto88a:
may you fix the little little bugs as fyodor did? for example the zoomin button and htc_ime? :D it would be great :D
[Click Android Development] KalimochoAz:
For my is a god idea. I wll try to help if you do this. I think in this case we will be more efficient.

My maximal is to solve the bluetooth problem with the handsfree that came since we use AOSP(donut branch) kernel.
