Damn, I'm actually pretty interested in this too. Guess you can always turn them off.

Not that I've seen. I just turned them off and enabled haptic feedback for them instead.

guess I'll have to give up flashed a zip to just permanently disable them.

The better question would be: why is your screen on in your pocket?

You can always go back to eclair

Put it on auto-brightness. It will lower the brightness in a dark area like your pocket. It'll disable the brightness control also. Hope this helps.

Can't you change this in the settings?
I would like to disable this control too.
Can anyone help please?
Is there any hidden setting to disable it?

+1 to this... might not be the best solution for somebody trying to always keep it at minimal brightness, but, to my knowledge, it is the only way to disable the swipe of the notification bar to change brightness...

Root explorer or similar and delete brightness.apk from /system/app

Make sure you have at least 6 levels and it'll stick

Using Nova Launcher
Hold on Screen > Add Shortcuts > Activities > Galaxy SII Settings
It is under Sensors
It was in the AOKP thread
Thank you so much for this. I have been looking for this functionality for about two weeks now.
Without using a launcher you could.download BLN control from apparently market and just click deactivate lol

[Q] Ripple Effect Not Working

I really love the ripple effect of the lock screen for the SGS3. Am I able to use it with a different wallpaper (other than stock)? It won't let me select ripple, because I'm using a different picture, but it's not a LWP. Does ripple effect only work with the preselected, stock wallpapers?

Yeah, I'm running XquiziT v26. I couldn't get it to work when it was not rooted and stock, also.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Im on v26 as well. So youve never had it working??? Thats just odd.
In lock screen options are you certain you have ripple effect checked?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Weird thing is:
It was blacked out, but I found out why. I was using a third-party application to set my home screen/lock screen wallpaper. For some ought reason, the phone confused the static pictures with live wallpaper. So, I saved one of the wallpapers and opened it in a photo viewer and set it as my backdrop. Sure enough, when I checked, the "ripple effect box" was no longer grayed out.

Thanks anyway for replying. Obligatory "thanks" for the effort on your part.
If need-be, a mod can close this thread.

Wallpapers

Just want to ask fellow xda members for help and opinion. Im using the same picture on my homescreen and lock screen but I have noticed that the quality of the picture on the lockscreen is nit as clear or as sharp as the one on my home screen even though im using the same picture. Any ideas?
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda app-developers app
Most likely you have the "Ripple Effect" enabled, just go into lock screen settings and disable it.

Ive tried the method u told me and it does help a bit, still not as clear as if I use the picture as home screen but better that if I have the ripple effect on. Thanks for the great advice.
