Hello guys.
Does anyone know if it is possible to customize the values on the light sensor brightness leveler in the Sense UI rom, like it has been done on the open desire rom? something like this http://twitpic.com/2k4qjz
Like a lot of people, I've also found annoying the fact of when in a room with lots of light, the brightness is with excessive values...
tks
+1
Would love to have that
+ it would be really cool
+1 looking forward to
Quick question, wheres the light sensor on the Desire located?
front top left corner near the speaker
+4 would like to know if this is possible too
So,anybody knows if this is possible?come guys,it's the thing missing for maximum battery life...in automatic,it literally sucks the batt and f#cks up our eyes in the dark...

+1 for this! Maybe some dev make it happen
it is really annoying, it doesn't work as it should and it has been done for other AOSP roms.
+1 for this thread , i was looking for the same...!!

Ive read that the One X tends to run a lot brighter for the equivalent setting on phones like the SII.
Is it possible to tune the brightness level that the Auto setting provides, and the external light at which it "ups" the brightness - as in my opinion, HTC's setting, although wonderful, is overkill in many situations, and screen on time needs all the help it can get.
Cheers.

if things aren't changed in ICS, you can decompile the /system/framework/framework-res.apk and then edit some xml's in it. Compile it again with the modified xml's and at last adb push it into the system partition. and this procedure requires a unlocked system partition.
if you don't want to unlock / don't know how to edit the stuff, the most feasible way is to put a brightness widget on homescreen and change it manually.

leedroid, insertcoin and a few of the other roms here have the option to lower the brightness in their tweak settings. If you search for it, j4n87 also created a flashable xml mod that lowers the brightness as well.
Cheers, I saw one on XDA for what I thought was the One S but it must be what youve just mentioned above I think.

Yes, we're on the same page although I don't understand italian . The mods I'm referring to all alter the baseline brightness as opposed to just the regular screen brightness based on ambient levels.
I'm running CM9 which allows you to edit baselines for screen and softkeys, but the roms and mods I referred you to do the same thing with less granular control. j4n87's mod is pretty dim but worked well for me until I switched to CM9. You could always crack open his zip and change the levels yourself before flashing.
Here is the link:

Yeh haha I don't speak Italian either just stumbled upon that on featured videos! Erm I knew CM9 had it working, can you point me in the direction of the best build? I need HDMI out but can live without Hotspot (which I believe is the only problem causer?). What's CM9 battery overall before these screen modifications?
I've tried about 6-7 of the roms here, they're all pretty much the same with varying levels of tweaks. I'm pretty sure that HDMI is working on the majority of them.
I love the hardware on this phone but not fond of Sense at all. Looking forward to more AOSP/AOKP based roms. The only available CM9 rom still has some bugs that need to be addressed (Phone, GPS, Camera - all working but with flaws) Battery life is excellent though I'm getting 4.5-5+ hours of screen on with heavy to moderate use using Faux123's kernel.
Is that the CM9 over at Modaco? Or is there an active one here?
That's great screen on time by the way.
Ideally I want one based on CM9 but with the sense Camera, that's all I can see thats worth keeping. Sense just isn't worth the performance hit IMO. It looks pretty cheap, especially with all the colourful busy icons...
Yes I'm using the build from modaco, jdroid is apparently working on a AOSP version and is beta testing. He said that they may release something this week.
How are you finding Screen on times for video playback/streaming by any chance?
Also, have you tried to see if the force dual core app helps?
Ill know myself tomorrow, the phone arrives...!
I recently acquired a galaxy nexus. It has a slight purple tint at like under 15%, and a huge one at exactly 0%. Is there a way to adjust the colors so I can get rid of/minimize the effect. Also is there a rom that looks exactly like the stock or something. I am pretty nooby at this. What is the best kernel?
Most kernels allow you to change your color settings, but I suggest you try Franco's App in the Play Store and download either his stable or exp version of his kernel, and then adjust settings in the "color control" settings area.
All of our kernels will allow you to change the color settings and most of them have apps. All of the roms look like stock as well except paranoid android and slim ICS. Kernels are good and bad for everyone and what works for one person will not always work for another. You should try them out to see how your phone responds to them.

Do I have to make a back up? And how would I go about doing that?

Yes, you will have to make a backup.
Then just download the kernel and flash it via ClockworkMod Recovery.
Also, the kernel control apps do cost a small bit.

Is the purple thing fixable via color control? Because at about 15% most purple goes away but if you look at gray under the notification center there's still purple.
Purple tint may be fixable with color control.
You'll have to play with the values, but I'm sure you can get a set-up that suits you.
Secondly, use my sig to get you up to speed on installing all of this if need-be.
Do I flash rom before kernel? Or vice versa?
Rom then Kernel yes.
Download AOKP. I know they have a working color control built in.
Or if you done want to change roms. Download the Franco.Kernel updater app.
It has a wonderful color control that I use all day depending on lighting.
What's the difference between Franco color control and AOKP color control?

They are the same really. But the app has a better layout and it works on ALL roms.
Also if u change the kernel on AOKP it won't work anymore.
I'll tell u how to get the Franco.kernel updater app in a PM. Okay???

You wouldn't if you have the Franco.kernel updater.
Get my PM???
If I flash Kernel and Rom, can I still exchange my device if I'm not satisfied?
YES.
But make sure you unroot. Use wug's toolkit to do that.
Guys, I just flashed AOKP and noticed the purple is gone. Should I still flash franco for better battery life?
is it just me but i think my S3 screen is too vivid in color?? too much red (i notice on actors face), green and blue specially when watching 720P or normal 480P rip movies??
im using 404 V70 rom from wild if it matters..
No its not just you. Im using stock at&t s3 and colors are just too vivid, like you said. Especially red. Display on my i777 was much nicer.
If you are on stock LH2, you can install Morfic's kernel and change the gamma hacks to hue your colors towards more R,G, or B. Obviously, you need to be rooted and know how to install kernels and such.
Much the same as with Voodoo kernels on earlier Galaxy devices.

ThanKs. not sure if my rom will do this though (xquizit v70) but im surprise with so many roms, dev, fix and hacks here that no one made a universal fix yet?? It's really not that good watching movies on the s3 specially if the scenes are with many red blue colors... Even just looking at photos too? Colors are just too dark...
hoping wildchld is reading this and maybe incorporate the fix to his rom..
I would kinda like Samsung to take action and come up with a fix in their JB update..
It'd be hard to fix, my screen is perfect.. They could add sliders and settings though. Kind of odd my tv and monitor let me adjust but my phone doesn't.

Does it correct the colors on its own or is there a setting that comes with the kernel that you can adjust yourself?
That's just the nature of superAMOLED.

On a new version of my cleanslate kernel I'm working on Fading blink feature.
I'm curious how many of you would prefer to use the Fading blink instead of the original very short burst blink of the 10
Here's how it looks with my current work in progress kernel
Please use the poll and comment if you would like to. Thanks
Mmmmmm, interesting idea. I think the notification blink is fine as it is. Would be very interesting if you could implement the fade into the low battery blink. So it fades orange instead of blinking it. If that makes sense haha

I'm a bit in between, the default blinking is well noticeable, yet aesthetically I find it unpleasant to the eye. It's purposeful but unsophisticated compared to the possibilities of the LED driver.
That's why I started to make it more "21st century" looking, pulsating, noticeable but nicer at the same time.
But as this is purely subjective I opened this poll to know what people think so I can confidently set it as default in the custom kernel.
About fading between colors I'm afraid that would need much more engineering as both ROM and kernel would need to change. Htc implemented notification about states in a one overwrites all manner in the framework of the sense ROM, which blocks your idea, tho sounds like a nice idea, it would need more with than just kernel level

if only it were possible... but there's no real RGB color compositing on the htc led
Fading blink looks cool. Go that way if it works reliably

Any way to achieve this without the kernel? I have root, elementalx, xposed, etc so I am wondering if there is an alternative method..

which part? The flashing of the notification green led?
I don't think so, based on the kernel level structure I'd say, this driver was not meant to do such advanced things in stock kernel.
that's where I come into picture

Please let me test! That pulse blink is beyond sick! Make this the standard!
Summarizing the poll, the majority is looking for the Fading LED functionality.... but here's something really cool additionally, maybe of same caliber of more, you decide
I'm still polishing and testing the two features that was born out of my RGB led experimentation
but here's a video about the
two new features that again is
going to change a good part of how HTC 10's will work among the custom mod user community members.
- Fading LED notifications blinking
- Color changing charging LED based on battery charge level

Wow, I can't wait to try this.
Would be a real reason to switch to your kernel after years of elementalX
