The version of HTCUTIL used in my kitchen automaticaly adjusts the backlight based on the light sensor, you should just need to untick this option which gives you access to the sliders.

LED Notifications

Hi there,
i have two questions arround the notifications.
1. In the past a was able to set the LED-flashing notification to "unlimited". With the current Wm6.5 T-Mobile Germany ROM, 5 Minutes is selected and the value can not be changed. For me, this isn't the sense of the LED. Is there a way to change this in registry?
2. I hate this battery-low notifications. The orange flashing LED is really enough for my. Is here a way to disable it?
Thanks a lot for any help!
Phil
Any ideas?

[Q] SGS Blackberry-ish lock/unlock phone

Hi there,
Coming from a Blackberry Bold 9700 and being now the proud owner of a Samsung Galaxy S, I have to confess I miss a tiny little feature that I had with the BB and that the SGS doesn't have: when I used to put my BB in its case, it would lock the phone automatically.
Well, I know that is an old feature of all BB and that it works via a magnetic mechanism of some sort.
My question is: would it be possible to develop such a feature for the SGS, using the proximity sensor?
Or... is there any existing app that already does this?
FYI, I use this case: http://www.amazon.co.uk/GENUINE-KRU...1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1284032013&sr=8-1
Thanks!
Benny
One small question: is this topic in the appropriate forum or should it be in the "Android Development" one?
This could really belong in any of the forums, it's about accessories, an application for locking the phone, and the development of such an application. Congrats, for what it's worth!
But...I don't think this is possible. I'm just another uneducated user though, so what do I know!
This looks cool :

Thanks for the info, Danesh!
That tool seems to be quite perfect for the job. But I'm afraid it does not work with my (and, I assume, any) SGS...
Can someone take a look at it and see if it can be modded in order for it to work?
Thanks a bunch!

Oh, ok... But that kind of defeats the purpose I intended to use it for.
Sorry to be such a pain, but is there someone who can enable the sensor to do its job even with no headphones plugged in?
Thanks again!

Im currently creating such an app. Heres wht imma implement :
Using orientation sensor + proximity sensor, if ur phone is in vertical position and proximity sensor returns a 0 for 5s, then the screen turns off (haven't implemented this part yet).
So far i have it working where it sets the brightness to 0 when its dark for 5s, and sets to original brightness when its not dark. Will keep u posted.
Edit : I might not do orientation sensing, cuz tht'll cause too many variations where its not fathomable.
Neone know of any private api's or nething tht allows an app to disable screen ? Might open tht guys app to see.

hi there.
first of all i think u dont need something like that .. i was a bb user too.. and trust me u dont need.. sgs touch screen only respond to finger.. u can try pen.. or try touching it with your clothes or trew your clothes the screen and see that nothing hapens GL.. so why is necesary the magnetic lock? i dont see the point
I suppose you could set something like this up with Tasker? Using the orientation sensor?

proximity sensor annoys me...

Can anyone tell me, how do I disable the proximity sensor when I'm not in a call...
When I operate with the system, sometimes I "fly" over the top left corner of the phone and while doing so, the screen turns off and it won't wake up automatically. I've to turn it on manually : (
Anybody?

Hrm, just a speculation. Jacko's is pretty good chef, so I don't think the ROM is the issue. Have others reported this problem on his ROM...?
I know there's some registry settings pertaining to the prox sensor, lemme see if I can find 'em.

Well, there is an app "Proximity Locker" - which allows me to disable it while not beeing in a call - but I need to run this app after each soft reset... kinda annoying, too : /

So have it run on boot? I dunno. Look for registry settings, I think there's some. I didn't find any, but didn't really search that hard (I don't use WinMo anymore).

Gotta be a registry setting. That's realy odd. On EnegryROM, I never had this issue.
Delete the ProximityLock.lnk from /WIndows/StartUp
Restart your device and you're ready to go!

[Q] Plz help me to change low/dim backlight config, I have Backlight flickering issse

Hello,
I recently bought used in mint HTC Desire. It had already S-OFF'ed, Rooted, Recovery Installed (CWM) and Custom ROM flashed (MIUI).
After few days, I noticed the issue of screen backlight is flickering when I set manual brightness setting to low or dim. Mostly at night times. Though could be ROM issue but when I flashed different ROM, there issue persists.
Later of researching, found that this is known issue in mostly Desire Z. When I set above 31%, backlight won't flicker so it means the LCD tolerance of low voltage is not good.
Now I cannot send it back for warranty as its 2nd hand and I don't have bill. Of course, international purchase.
I use 3rd party app to set 31% whereas default low setting is 20%. I would like to modify the default low brightness setting to 31% so that I can use default brightness manual slider and won't be needing of 3rd party apps.
Can anybody please help me where I can find the setting file? Or atleast a app to modify it.
Thanks...
Best Regards
Bump...
Someone please help me.
I'm new to android and cannot figure out solely.
I'm using Runnymede AIO V5.0.2 Special Edition ROM. Please help me how to modify the lowest/least/dim backlight setting. I sure its not so hard but I really don't know where to edit.
Please help guys!!!
Thanks...
Best Regards
Sebastian today uploaded new mod for auto-brightness settings...haven't tested it very well yet, but give it a try. It's downloadable from addons (names include "autobrightness", don't forget to chose correct HBOOT).

Yeah noticed. I just downloaded and flashed v5.0.2 few hours before he released v5.0.3.
However, I don't think that will solve my LCD flickering issue because my LCD is faulty or doesn't work with low back light (tolerance), otherwise.
Backlight percent shouldn't go below 31% otherwise, my lcd starts to flicker. Default low setting is 20 I guess.
Thanks...

Thanks. I was doing that itself while you posted!
First time I used APKMultiTool to modify framework-res.apk and when I pushed to phone and reboot, it sucked at animation loop.
Had to reflash to get back to working device. Then I tried Apk Manager 4.9. Pushed the file and after reboot device is working fine.
But still same issue.
Things I have modified:
config_lowest_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesDown
config_lowest_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValuesUp
config_lowest_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues
Edited to 31 lowest in place of 30.
Edit: looks like thats different or otherwise related to auto brightness setting. Mine is with manual brightness setting. Anybody know where that will be?
Thanks...
Best Regards
did you wipe dalvik? I could be related to rc tweaks too as they have commands how to control those numbers... I don't that knowledge just learning that...

No, thats different. Its auto brightness settings. Do you see or used Default, Lower and Lowest option in rc tweaks? Yes those settings are found in framework-res.apk. Thats what I have edited but it will not change manual brightness setting bar (in quick settings).
I guess manual brightness setting should be in kernel.
Im using Lower option and Im happy with it... Lowest is too low for me... try pm Droidzone he made kernel for seb15...

Wish my device was also same but its LCD has low backlight tolerance issue. And the device is 2nd hand nor I have money to buy new lcd. Thats why I'm struggling to fix it myself.
Tried some 3rd party apps. Worked fine but they didn't suited well for daily usage.
Droidzone has disabled PM and seb15 has denied asking questions via PM. I tried to post the issue in his thread but no body responded.
Thanks...

tried to ask on his website?
or try to flash snq kernel, maybe there is a tiny difference

i dont know any fix but have you changed any thing in your phone
installed any conflicting brightness or some sort of keep device wake up kind of apps
last thing you can do is take a back up of your current states
then do a fresh install wipe every thing
that can solve your issue
coz from where i can see settings for sensor is messed up

I'm using xperia z ultra and having the same issue, had this problem on 4.4 and 4.3 but never on 4.2. I guess its a 'feature' called Content Adaptive Backlight (google it) and can't be disabled.
