Is it possible? - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wanted to know is it possible to prevent the dual flash? Or make the leds flash at separate times? Was just wondering. I mean the dual leds are cool if it is night photo but standard pics are so bright it whites out the faces sometimes.

+1. Or tell it to auto instead of always... or adjust contrast/brightness on camera. I never liked the way photos looked with bright/contrast/saturation at default levels

You could try by getting a damp cloth and give it a bit of a wipe at the camera lense.
Photoshop?

No like if there's movement it will come out too blurry to even make out, do I need to change settings?

It sounds like the shutter speed is really slow when you take your photos. Chances are, this is a lighting problem. If you're taking pictures in any environment other than bright, the shutter speed might be too slow which will cause that blur to happen. You can try to use the LED flash if the subject is close enough. You can also change the exposure to +1 or +2 which will increase the shutter speed, negating the blur. The downside to increasing the exposure is that you increase the sensitivity of the image sensor to light which introduces noise into your photo.
camera 360 is free, i think the only difference on the paid version is the colorful effect w/c is useless anyway..

[Q] LED Notifications

Since there isn't an LED light specifically for notifications, is there a way to make the LEDs for menu, home, back, and search light up for said notifications? It would be even better if each one lit up for specific apps so I could know why it's lighting up before I even turn on the screen.
Thanks for any help!
My suggestion would be NoLED.

Yeah, that's what I'm doing, but was hoping one could take advantage of the buttons' LEDs.

The closest we can get to LED notifications is BLN. You need to use a BLN compatible kernel and use the app BLN Control.

I'm trying to tweak some things on system tuner and my phone rebooted (but took a bit to turn on) my blood pressure dropped, I thought I killed my phone!
But after some reading.. it pretty much means the phone does not like those settings, change them.. right? Phone works fine now though, but I was wondering for future reference

Yeah, basically. If you are undervolting, you need to take tiny increments to make sure the phone is stable before going any further.

I get a pink center when taking pictures in incandescent light. Hear it's pretty common though.

I think it might be my camera, but I don't want you take it back. I think I got one of the good screens,I can't see the blobs or lines on the screen at the lowest brightness. Only when I really look at it in the dark but there's still barely any lol.

If you have a good screen then great haha. However the best way to test is with full brightness and a completely black image. You should see a green tint along with the lines and blobs. If you have a white SGSII, you won't really be able to see them until the soft keys turn off.

Does the blob go away with flash, no flash?

Still in the picture with or without flash. Do you guys think they will exchange it?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
If its a new phone they should because its a manufacturers defect. There should be no charges either for that.

[Q] Decrease the lowest brightness of Note 2?

Hi, I'm a newbie here, I just wondering is there a way to decrease the lowest brightness limit?
It's quite uncomfortable to use the phone in a completely dark room, even though I've set the lowest brightness.
Thank You
Play store, screen filter or Filter your screen.

Though keep in mind that screen filters degrade the quality of colors and makes you unable to install apps while they're active.

I use "screen filter" every night and ever morning.I have been for over two years now. Under that time I must have updated an app a few times!
There is an app called Night Mode on play store. Its pretty good and its free. Do give it a try..

Just bought Lux from store few days ago and have no experience like this. Only if use night mode the colors look funny to me, but the backlight control is awesome.

It works! Feel the brightness decreased, although not really big difference.
However, thanks man! Love it!

yeah you're right, the brightness does not change even though there is extra room for decreasing the brightness on the slider.
Try Elixir 2
I use Elixir to make a filter toggle, I have this toggle within a widget in my homescreen and other one in the statusbar widget (both with the same filter configuration) and it works perfect for me because Elixir allows to add many toggles in the same widget.

Is there a way to prevent the screen from waking up while receiving a notification?

Love the moto 360 and super happy with it, though there's one thing I've always wanted to do with it and i haven't seen it posted anywhere.
I'd like to be able to receive a notification to my watch and have the screen NOT wake but still receive both the notification (To view when i'm ready) and the vibration (To know i have a notification).
There has to be a way to do this. Can anyone help?

I got Lightflow to vibrate..but how do you keep the card? The only solution I found was to turn block the notification for the app (in my case Textra) and turn on the vibrate in Lightflow. It would be nice to have the vibrate and card but without the screen on.
I installed lightflow but I don't understand how I'm supposed to use it? I too would be interested in some way to get notifications that are a little more private. Can someone walk me through the steps to set up gmail as an example so I get some sort of notification on the watch without the watch screen coming on? Or a way to get notifications without the subject or content showing up until I am ready to check it?
