Automatic brightness?

Thanks for your hard work! Installed no problem once I figured out what I was doing. I'm a total Android noob but fairly tech savvy. The system definitely feels faster and more responsive with the new Kernel.

One question...did this new kernel make any changes to the automatic brightness function? The screen seems to be consistently dimmer since the update.

Thanks again!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mlee0921:
after hours and hours of trying to figure out why i couldnt connect to my computer, i finally ran this and it definetely feels smoother. even my back button seems to respond better.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BopChie:
well the process went as smooth as can be here, Thanks n00b
[Epic 4G Android Development] CJNYC:
TWS problem?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but judging from my first morning with this Kernel installed, it doesn't seem like it corrects the "time without signal" or TWS problem? My phone, after 2 hours, was already showing 38% TWS. I guess I'll gave to stick with the airplane mode toggle as a fix.
[Epic 4G Android Development] octones:
It doesn't say it fixes that so why would you expect it to?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mlee0921:
i noticed after installing 1.2.2 that in the build number it still says 1.2.0.

is it supposed to be like that or did i not install 1.2.2 correctly?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rquinn19:
I was going crazy wondering why everyone else had no problems updating, but I couldn't.

Delete the zimage from the sdcard!
[Epic 4G Android Development] cdudeman:
I was having some frustrating problems as well. Kept getting Error: device offline. Used a different micro usb cable than the one that comes with the phone and it worked fine. Just wanted to tell everyone in case you have a similar issue.

[Epic 4G Android Development] johnsongrantr:
I don't think nand is locked, root is permanant, certian root apps don't play well with this phone though
[Epic 4G Android Development] bullet2300:
I ran the root and it seemed to fail I think? said something about access denied to zImage, rebooted the phone and the cmd window went away. Now if I run Titanium it says that the phone does not have root access.

I've tried re-running the run.bat, but the same result happens...

any ideas? :(

What I was doing wrong was Mounting the SD Card... I had to do that in 2.2.4, so I assumed I needed to do that here. Once I unmounted it, there were no problems!

Thanks :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] huoyjii:
+1. Thank you!

I had the same "Error: device offline" problem and thanks to this post, I switched to a diff micro usb cable and it works!

I thought all micro usb cable are the same and I guess I was wrong.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Since I can't switch cables, I've been doing this all manually by opening the .bat and running each command individually and waiting for the device to wake back up after certain steps. What I've noticed is that it contains a lot of steps from the original rooting .bat. I'm assuming this is so that people who are not rooted can still flash the kernel, correct? It was my understanding that this kernel comes rooted (which is verified by Titanium Backup).

My question is this: If I was to update from my current 1.2.4 kernel to the new 1.3 kernel, what commands do I have to use?

This is what I'm assuming:

adb push redbend_ua /data/local
adb shell chmod 755 /data/local/redbend_ua
adb push zImage /sdcard
adb shell /data/local/redbend_ua restore /sdcard/zImage /dev/block/bml7

And then clean up? Correct me if I'm wrong... I just don't want to have to do all those pushes and chmods...

Ok I'm having issues getting this to properly work. I have attempted this multiple times. The drviers on the main post don't work. I believe I found them else where. The bat runs but doesn't do a thing and I do not have root. I've tried this root and the earlier 1 click root method. Wtf is going on?

Does it need to be mounted? From my understanding it just needs USB debugging on.

Please help I just want this thing rooted like my last driod phone. lol

Guys there is nothing wrong with samsung cables..whats happening is you plug it in..don't let the drivers finish installing for that port and it fails..then you take and try another cable on that port and it magically works...(cause the drivers are already installed for that port)

Aka regardless the cable all you have to do is plug it in with debug mode and wait for it to load at least 3/4 drivers..and then it works..simple as that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Phen0m:
The cord sucks.. my drivers are already installed on two different PC's.. sammys cord wont sync, while my cheapass motorola cord does w/no issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
No, it's the cable. I used a different one and had 100% success after that, even on my front USB ports. It was very finicky with the included Samsung cable.

Hell, using adb at all was finicky with the included cable. No more problems once I got a better one.

[Epic 4G Android Development] gTen:

I personally can't possible see a cable make much difference...I mean has anyone seen the thing where they replaced Monster cables with cloth hangers and achieved same results? lol

Unless your cable is defective in some way that it is popping out of the device..it would either work always or don't work always...

Finally found a widget to turn off my Nexus screen with no delay. Touch the widget and INSTANT screen lock. This combined with widget locker means I hardly ever have to use the power button on my N1 (after a call I still have to unlock with power button though).

I believe it's called 'lock screen widget'. Thanks to the op for suggesting this. I also just purchased 'power off'. My power button is fine but with all the stories of the power button failing I do worry about it, so using these two widgets will reduce the use of it hopefully avoiding any problems...

Edit: power off from the market sux. Refunded, uninstalled...

As the poster above noted, its called "lock screen widget". I had the power button on my original Nexus die after 3 days so I've been looking for a way to avoid using it as much as possible....this helps immensely. With "widget locker" I can unlock the phone with the trackball or volume keys so my power button hardly ever gets touched.

[Nexus One General] Old MuckenMire:
I use No Lock to bypass using the power button. No Lock simply disables the device locking so you can wake the device with the volume buttons or the trackball, at all times. The only time I use the power button now is to power on/off the device. No Lock is free too.

[Nexus One General] sitinon327:
No Lock is great for turning the screen ON...but I wanted something to turn it OFF without hitting the power button or waiting for the screen to just "timeout". The two other widgets I found both came with 5-7 sec delays before the capacitive buttons or trackball didn't cancel the action (Lock Enabler looks to have a few seconds delay as well). This widget is just like hitting the power button as it INSTANTLY shuts the screen off. This is exactly what I'd been looking for.
