I ment 70% not 70 on there scale from 2-255.

I use to run 70% brightness on a sense rom and it was a killer on my battery. I droped it to 60% and I got 25 more min then I dropped it to 40% and I got 1.5 hours more out of it.

How I tested it was with systempanel running monitor mode with screen timeout set to 30min and did the math.

The phone was in airplane mode and nothing installed but a fresh sense rom and systempanel.

That's how I got the magic number for my phone. I am wrong about the scaling. I didn't know it was from 2-255 and I do apologize if I was a bit confusing. Im going to keep playing with the settings both inside and outside till I find a solution.

Every phone is different but that's how my phone worked.

Can anyone suggest something for me?

It bothers me, no, boils my blood, hmm no, it destroys my soul ... when im on a call and go to hang up the call, i wake the screen and my phone has locked.

It ends up being like a 5 second (feels like 30 seconds) delay before the point where i say "ok good bye" and the time i actually hang up the phone.

so the person hears me fumbling on the phone, and hears anyone in the background because i have stopped talking and am now awkwardly silent while making my way to the "End" button
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
It is 40 of 255. So its 15%

Edit: Guess I was a little late to this party!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] MedleHed:
Reboot and try again.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IXIKelsonIXI:
Quoting myself from a long time ago when I first flashed CM7. Last night I decided to try it again. I switched back to a Sense ROM after I had the above issue, because it was absolutely killing my battery. Everything was going just fine for about twelve hours. Now, suddenly, this problem is back.

I did a forum search but I can't find anybody else with this problem. My lock screen appears very briefly, then the screen off animation plays. That happens in conjunction with my SMS notification sound. I am so confused. But I am going to have to switch back to Sense if I can't figure it out, because my battery is dropping like mad.

long press music controls arent working for me with #12!!!!
[Droid Incredible Android Development] 06stang:
I mentioned already you must have skimmed over it or it got lost in the clutter. I heard its probably a problem with theme Chooser. The problems we're having are Widgets disappearing after the phone is.locked for a while and also cm7 getting very sluggish after unlocking

[Droid Incredible Android Development] past_pluto:
You can't directly look at the levels 0-255 and extrapolate that into % of brightness. I tried and your brain just hurts. Eventually you get used to the levels 0-255 as brightness numbers similar to % without converting back and forth. Sorta like speaking French and Spanish.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
Just a little, but still very helpful. No wonder why 40 looks like I'm living under a rock. So if I wanted 50% I would put it at about 120? That seems a little much so now I'll have to play around. But at least I understand what is happening now. Thanks to everyone.

edit: 70 is looking really good for me indoors.

I sidestepped the issue of not being able to hang up in a timely manner by enabling Trackball Hangup. From the home screen > Settings > Call Settings > Trackball Hangup > Tap to Hang up

Try that out and see if it alleviates the problem
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cannonballgsu:
Just wanted to say I'm loving CM7 (#12)- first non-sense ROM that I have stuck with.

Only issues I'm having is that occationally it seems a little sluggish

and

When in an app that isn't on the home screen, when I hit the home key, it doesn't go home. It goes to the screen I accessed the app from. If I hit home again, it will take me home.

You are in a losing battle my friend. I find myself skimming the thread more and more...its getting hard to sift through the same nonesense...
[Droid Incredible Android Development] Penutbutter_N_Jelly:
Was just gonna suggest this.

I just tried this out and it's not working. I tried both "tap to hang up" and "double tap to hang up".

Didn't there used to be the option to press the power button to hang up a call?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cuban11182:
I'm wondering if that is what is causing my Lattitude not to work.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IXIKelsonIXI:
Meh. Back to Myn's, I guess.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
Yes, do it through Titanium.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
Does that work with alternate dialer, i.e. Dialer One?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] byrong:
*sigh*... yea :(

It's just disheartening. We have a number of people in here who genuinely try to help members, even when it means digging up info that they remember seeing somewhere else. When someone can't even be bothered to read a post that was made 3 hours ago though, it can be quite discouraging. I think, "what's the point of addressing this question when people aren't going to read the answer?"

I can understand it's very hard to keep up with this thread, especially at its rate of growth. I've long come to accept that people aren't going to read back a few days, but a few hours? Brutal.

Bummer. Any chance that you have trackball wake enabled? I wonder if trackball hang up and trackball wake interfere with each other?

I can't make calls to test the hang-up feature right now (at work), so I can't confirm whether it's still functioning on mine or not... don't remember the last time I tried to use it either :(

Ok, bye!!!

AFAIK dialer one still uses the built in dialer call placer apk, it just replaces the keypad portion of the phone suite.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] jesssiii:
Well, my recovery says it's 3.0.0.8 even though I flashed back to 2.something (and I know the flash worked because I then flashed Bezerker's colored BAMod and it's high visibility yellow). What's really bizarre is it maintained the speed boost from 3.0.0.8!

BTW, what happens if you mount system then format in recovery? Don't say "try it", please. Lol, I'm pretty sure I got my phone back to baseline.

Why is the only reply to my issue in over a month a goodbye? I didn't mean to insult CM7 at all, I love this ROM, which is why I tried to flash it again. But I can't get any help with this problem since I seem to be the only one having it. And it sucks, because I really really really really like CM7.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bucwylde23:
Only weird issues I've seen so far since running #11 today has been:

-My phone is currently charging, it's at 94% and the green notification light came on indicating full charge. However, it's still charging.

One thing I either don't understand or am having issues with, is under About Phone -> Battery Use. For some reason at times when I unplug from usb charge, it doesn't "reset" to indicate how long i've been running on a single charge.

Otherwise, loving CM7 so far :)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] mcho19:
Anybody experiencing the phone freezing while trying to USB mount? I had to do it in recovery to circumvent this issue.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] drPheta:
Green light comes on at 90% for AOSP Roms. It will still charge to "100%" if you keep it plugged in. Quotes are there because we all know 100% doesn't necessarily mean 100% (i.e. Bump Charging works.)
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cam30era:
Well, my experience on this forum is this: if someone knows the answer and can help you, they will. I have had a few posts where I received no response. I attribute this to the fact that no one who is logged in at that time knows the answer. And this forum has so many posts/hour now, that few people can take the time to search back through a day's, or multiple days worth of posts. I don't think anyone is ignoring you or being mean spirited. Hope this helps, a little.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] cam30era:
This comes and goes for a few people. There are two possible solutions that have helped some: 1) uninstall the device drivers on your PC, then reinstall them, and/or 2) reflash the ROM.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] bobby janow:
Tap to hang up doesn't work for me, either with the trackball wake on or not.
[Droid Incredible Android Development] JetBomber117:
I remember reading somewhere in the git commits that 2.3.3 broke many of the key mappings. Which explans why long hold media controls and track ball hangups are broken.

[Droid Incredible Android Development] elpeterson:
well i mean, in his defense there has been a discussion about the screen brightness going on that happened to come back into popularity.

and while I knew that you were stating that a problem in 11 hadnt been fixed, you worded it as if it was a complaint and didnt provide much do counter his assumption.

And also, if you had looked maybe 3-5 pages back. that issue has already been noted, discussed and accepted

[Droid Incredible Android Development] elpeterson:
no idea what could be causing this but im gonna take a stab at speculating. i know texts come through edge, not 3g, but maybe your phone settings are requring your phone to wake up in order to display a text?

are you using the stock messaging client?
[Droid Incredible Android Development] IXIKelsonIXI:
Yeah I am using the stock messaging app. But the thing is, last night it was working perfectly, no screen waking up or any of that nonsense. Then this morning it just started happening. I haven't fooled around with any settings today.

That was from a few hundred posts ago. Anyway, you said that cm7 was no good for your phone and that you were leaving. This person said ok, bye, and then like 2 weeks later you come back asking why they said bye. If you want to leave, then just go. If you don't want to leave, then don't leave, but don't threaten to leave and then get upset when people don't beg you to stay...

not sure you read my question right. i saved a video from youtube to my computer which is mp4 format. placed it on my sd card and i am able to view the video no problem but i cant send it. says i am not allowed to attatch that file. i thought ok, maybe its because its mp4 and stock video records in 3gp. so i converted it to 3gp replaced it on my sd card and still will not let me send it. says the same thing. file is not to big to send. i have no clue.

well crap. let me try to convert it to m4v and try it to see if that works. thanks for the tip.

You should probably take a camera video file, download it on your computer, and get all the specs from it (type, size, resolution, etc, etc) so you can match it as closely as possible.

Even more specifically: Watching the light level numbers, it jumps between only like 6 different numbers between dark room and bright room. It stays on 1 or 2 levels almost all the time. this makes ANY settings pretty useless.

I'm still on #5 - it's been stable for me and I haven't felt the need to jump up. Out of curiosity, does the screen now fade properly between different brightness levels when the on/off animations are enabled? That (and the tethering) would seemingly persuade me to jump up...
