That's bs.

From OP:

Notice "levels", plural. Notice "which autobrightness uses", not some default brightness setting, which is completely and utterly irrelevant to autobrightness.
[EVO 4G General] uniquenameevo:
You mean the OP with "Last edited by nabbed; Yesterday at 12:27 AM. "? As in, last edited six hours after the fix you requested was posted?
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
You can set up tasker profiles using the variables %light (to define the levels of ambient light that you want to set) and %bright (to set the brightness for each level that you set with %light).

donate link in my sig, and I'll tell you what, even though I pointed you to the app that can do it for you, and told you which variables to use, you still need to set up the profiles yourself, so I'll gladly accept just half of the bounty. Hell, I'll even split it with es0tericcha0s.
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
Please a little more detail. What's tasker profiles?
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
Tasker is an app that you can get either from the market or their home page (and if you get it from their home page, you get a 7 day free trial), that you can use to automate just about anything on your phone. Some profiles are easier to set up (like automatically turning on your media player when you plug in your headphones, or turn on wifi when you get home and turn it off again when you leave), and some things are a bit more difficult (like getting it to automatically read all incoming text messages from your friend Bob out loud to you while your driving, or setting up profiles to take the place of other apps - for example, it can do everything that juice defender can do if you set it up right).

it can really do just about anything though, as long as you set up your profiles correctly. Until recently, one of the more useful things I've been using it for is to set up a toggle widget that changes the stagefright setting to true or false in my build.prop file on the fly as a pandora sound quality fix.
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
That sounds great. Please make a profile. The required data is in post #16.

EDIT: I read up on some of the tasker features and documentation.

The way the app works may render it unusable for my purpose.

Here's a quote:

How can I do something every minute ?

If you can figure out how to do what I need, the bounty is yours.

P.S. These accusations of me not willing to pay for something are getting a bit old. Ask netarchy, king and myn if they liked my donations.
[EVO 4G General] egzthunder1:
Exactly what he said....
[EVO 4G General] egzthunder1:
Actually, the only thing that the OP changed was the title (from $50 to $60) and nothing else. The post itself has been untouched. If you have nothing useful to add, please don't attack the OP.
[EVO 4G General] sprink0281:
Do any of these bounty threads ever get paid out? Or do the op's just disappear after they get what they want?
[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
How am I gonna disappear? I'm on the frigging irc; been bugging evo developers for this feature for the last 2 months.

That guy was just talking out his behind.
[EVO 4G General] uniquenameevo:
I'm not an admin and can't see that ;)

Just thought it looked odd. It truly appeared his answer was given and he changed the question.
[EVO 4G General] P_Dub_S:
I'll admit it read way to quickly and thought it was an auto brightness fix and not just the stock brightness. sorry or being an asshat in your post.
[EVO 4G General] JTNiggle:
Setting up the profiles is actually pretty easy. You just have to have 10 or so of them setup, one for each brightness level desired.

Start a profile with the context of ur light sensor reading between say 0 and 10, then set that task at say brightness level 30. Now start another profile with the light sensor context of 11 to 20, with the task of brightness level 50. Now continue until you've covered all the light sensors range, and apply it, just did mine, and it works perfectly.

Couple things, in Tasker, the light sensors range is 0 to 100, I'm guessing that's just working as a percentage of It's actuall range. And the more profiles you setup, the smoother it will be. So you could do 5 large steps and each one would be very noticeable, or you could do 20 tiny steps and it would appear much more fluid.

Hope that helps, let me know if you have any other question/concerns.

Hey... I think this thing makes phone calls too!
[EVO 4G General] sprink0281:
I wasn't singling you out, I was asking in general. There has been alot of bounty threads lately, was wondering what the outcomes are... Sorry if it came out that way...
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
Leave it to me to find the most complicated way of doing things. Although you can also set it up with variables, you don't need to use them to do this at all. Didn't have my phone on me and completely forgot that it was a built in context. Dur.

And op, don't worry about the timeframe issue, if you set it up right, it will work the same way that the stock auto-brightness works. What you were looking at (I think) was setting up a repeating profile - something different.

[EVO 4G General] nabbed:
I cannot get it to work.

Whenever I hit the apply button, it exits the tasker. But the notification entry says "no active profiles".

EDIT: still playing with it, hold on.

EDIT: it needed to calibrate maximum and minimum sensor reading.
[EVO 4G General] JTNiggle:
I did notice that there is a delay in the profiles kicking in. Sometimes takes a minute or two. Let it be for a bit after you apply. I have had it running for a few hours, so far so good.

%light tasker

Hello JTNiggle,

I've been trying to automatically adjust Display Brightness level based on current light condition for the last three days. I've been unsuccessful.

When you get some free time LOL could you please provide details of your profile from above.

Here is my setup:

EVENT>Variable Value %LIGHT>75

Task +Display Display Brightness level 100

EVENT>Variable Value %LIGHT>45

Task +Display Display Brightness level 50

EVENT>Variable Value %LIGHT<20

Task +Display Display Brightness level 0

HELP!!

Thank you so much

Mardy
[EVO 4G General] fachadick:
I was using variables for this also, but they're not needed. Set your first context for light level (under state) for 0-10% with the task to change the brightness level to one you want. Then do the same for 11-20%, etc
[EVO 4G General] mardonnavalta:
Thanks Fachadick. you da mon!! It rocks...I love what Tasker can do!!

[Epic 4G General] youngnick09:
Is it possible to add HTC Sense to the Samsung Epic? Is there a launcher that can do this or just complete different UI theme or even a complete ROM? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated, thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G General] id_twin:
LauncherPro is an alternative launcher that can be used with the epic -- However, although there is 'HTC Sense' themse for the launcher itself, I think they would have to be ported over for it to work.

TouchWiz is great, I had hero before epic. In my opinion TW definitely out performs Sense, and isn't as bulky. First question everyone will ask you is "Why not just bye the evo if you wanted Sense?"
[Epic 4G General] youngnick09:
I have the Epic Experience ROM currently flashed I think, and it has Launcher Pro (I also think, ha). What you're saying is that there are HTC Sense themes for Launcher Pro? Mind explaining how I would be able to change the theme of Launcher Pro to have HTC Sense? And there's a simple, easy answer for that question; The Epic has a nice keyboard that the EVO does not.
[Epic 4G General] id_twin:
You will need to do some google work. First find a LauncherPro sense theme. Then research how to port it over to epic.
[Epic 4G General] MILcityBoi:
You can add Sense UI by buying an EVO:D
[Epic 4G General] illogic6:
As far as actually adding HTC Sense to this phone: It won't happen mostly because Sense is all closed source.
[Epic 4G General] bubby323:

[Epic 4G General] beavis4ever:
So that is Wisdom huh? So is there no AOSP update tonight either?
[Epic 4G General] Zei:
um....why would you want that ugly shiz
[Epic 4G General] asj2583:
Its actually available on launcher pro plus which is the paid version for widgets to become available. You can buy it thru the market or 4shared is your friend. ;-)
[Epic 4G General] asj2583:
I have a evo as well with sense custom rom and it a lot more functional as far as features go. I love sense, to bad its not availble on the epic. You can always get an evo however the evo doesn't compare to the epic in power. Movies, games and eveything looks better on the epic thanks to it gpu and super amoled.
[Epic 4G General] gophergun:
I think ROM devs might be able to port it over, but we might have to wait for HTC to release a phone similar enough to ours first. That's what happened on my old G1, at least. :p
[Epic 4G General] akijikan:
That doesn't make it an impossible task, there's always decompilers, computer science forensics, and educated guess-work that could probably accomplish the job. Whether or not anyone would be willing to take the time to do it is another question.

Of course someone who can code could just start from scratch to build something that gives the same front end results as sense whether or not the back end is actually sense probably wouldn't matter to the end user.

i just rooted my vibrant and have the stock recovery and stock rom do i need an ext 2 or 4 partition to run it? and i can flash the kernel using stock recovery because jac says it on his thread right?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amd_203:
I'm not sure if you can install it with the stock recovery because I use the ClockworkMod. You should just get Rom Manager from the market and flash it. It's simple. For Ext2 you can use it on a stock kernel fine with OCLF in the market. For Voodoo (Ext4) you need to flash a kernel that comes with it on a Rom that supports it. Like Bionix.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
You will not revert back... you will just love your phone more and await the next release from Team Whiskey.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmas0n:
This. The only real decision you need to make is whether to flash Bionix 1.9 or Fusion 1.0

If you like Touchwiz, Bionix 1.9 is for you

If you like Launcher Pro, Fusion is where you need to be.

If you don't like the black, you can skin it. If you don't like it at all, try something else.

In short; try it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PaiPiePia:
Bionix is really smooth for me, even though I dislike the black keyboard, it saves battery, so I will deal with it. If you are feeling advantageous you can even use an overclocking kernel and see your phone fly even faster.

So is vanilla froyo 2.2 basically broken for me? Again i am NOT on sprint i bought my phone for $350 new and i pay $60 a month for un limited everything ...

Did you flash a different radio
[Hero CDMA Android Development] surfnhawaii808:
No
[Hero CDMA Android Development] hexskrew:
Nah, I have had that problem before. Best thing you can do is to flash another rom. Specifically one for a regular and similar provider to yours.

ONE THING:

Did you back up your oem 2.1 before flashing another rom? If you did, nandroid back to it, and then type ##3282#. Type view mode and write down EVERYTHING you see! Now if you want to stay with 2.1 stock then go ahead. If not, flash another rom besides CM6(or whatever you flashed) and if it's not AOSP, then simply do the ##3282# in the rom of choice and put in all the info you wrote down. Then you should be finished.

AOSP does not include options to change mms settings but it's possible you just have to find the right xml file, decompile it, edit, then push it back to the rom. I have been meaning to do this myself because I am also not on sprint but have the same issue on AOSP.

HOPE THIS HELPS!

here ya go..

APN settings are for MMS... nand back to stock, and go onto the market and download APN backup and restore, then backup the APN with it to SD card, then nand back to your rom of choice and download APN backup and restore and restore it and walla MMS. as far as SMS goes, did you load a PRL from your specific carrier to the phone? If not, then use the stock rom and do ##PRL# and load a carrier specific PRL for your carrier to get SMS..

as far as the password is concerned install alogcat from the market and...

Go to your dialer and enter ##DATA# or ##3282# which will bring up the EPST menu

Once the menu pops up just select "View Mode"

At this point you will see a screen with 3 selections.

From here either press and hold the Home Key and select aLogcat if you ran it before, go to your tray and run Logcat.

After opening Logcat it will update, once it finishes press "Menu" and "Pause" the log.

Then scroll until you see a group of entries labeled "I/EpstBroadcastReciever" which should be green

Locate the line that has "MSL Code=" at the end of it

works most of the time.

and one last note, all of these are to be done in a 2.1 ROM...
