Unable to use flash because battery too low? - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I am trying to use my flash but it says my battery is too low. Is there a way to bypass this? I can't even use flashlight apps. This is really annoying and I would like to get rid of it. Another thing is when I open up the camera, my brightness goes all the way up, anyway to disable this?
Thank you.

Just found your post through google. I'm having the same issue I really needed my flashlight the other day but had less than 10% battery. This was a very dumb idea whoever decided to put it in sense. I thought a custom ROM might find a way around it but so far no luck. And the full brightness is extremely annoying it does the same when I open gallery

You cannot disable this BUT what you can do is download a 3rd party camera app from the store then you can use the flash even below 10%.

[APP]Screen Filter. (Adjust your brightness of screen and save battery)

Hi guys.
I always feel that my display eats the most of my battery..I know what do you expect from S.AMOLED Plus displays..Gorgeous i know but eats your battery..Anyway great app on the market that i have started to use and it works wonders for me and would like to spread the word, if you don't already know about about this app..
Link is this https://market.android.com/details?id=com.haxor&hl=en
Apologies if you already have it, but i just thought if there are more people like myself who want to save a bit of juice on your battery this is a great app to use specially if your brightness is abit to much as well.
Cheers
very good for bedtime reading too and discreet enough not to annoy the missus. This is one of the first apps I install on every Rom change.

I liked it but found out that if set too low (as it is very efficient) it can be tricky to find the icon or anything else for that matter so eventually I stopped using it

You always get the icon on the top left hand corner. if you bring down the drop down menu you could access the app from there.

Disable Touch Key Backlight on Google Edition

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.
There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?
Give me a minute to shower and I'll write you an app. All you have to do is install my app, reboot, grant it root access, and profit.

Thanks brother. Any luck getting that working? With all of the research I have been doing, I have found MANY people that want to get this option working.

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.
SWEEET!!! Works like a charm thanks dude! Like I said, I've been searching for this forever! I know that many others have been searching for this, perhaps you should make a thread in the mods section.

[Q] NEED HELP: D855 Widgets blink after screen unlock

I have issue with my widgets after unlock. Most of the time after screen unlock, widgets disappear for one or two seconds. It looks like widgets reloading from some reason. I have tried factory reset, hard reset, even flash kdz file, but still no change.
Anyone have an idea what can be root of this problem?

Same here,
I don't think it's an issue...
Maybe it's normal ? Maybe a sort of deep sleep or something like that... ?

Same sentiments on LG G2...got ducking tired of it and switched to Nova!
It's not normal and it's the launcher. Launcher redraws do that.
If you have lots of apps running, well the launcher is "reloaded" when you go back home. Due to the nature of heavy things happening on the G3 lock screen I think this happens a lot.
Third party launchers alleviate the issue to some extent.
I also tried to edit build.prop file in system where i added ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1, but it didn't help.
There must be some way, how to keep launcher in memory.
By using third party launchers i will miss some widgets.
To solve this blink issue, I use AppSetting (Xposed Module) and i select "Resident" in settings of com.lge.launcher2.
Reboot, and you're done.
This option let your phone to keep this application in RAM.
Thanks...solve my problem

What worked for me was force stop Chrome and dont use it. use a different browser. So far no redraw.
fixed
I think this blink issue already fixed by new software update release couple days ago. I face the same problem then. Now no more blink in the home screen.

Is it possible to disable album art on lock screen without a custom lock screen?

This has been bugging me for a while - is there anyway to disable it? The app I'm using for podcasts allows you to but I don't think there a system-wide method or a way to do it for the stock music app? I'm still unrooted and can't really be bothered rooting just for this. I've also tried third-party lock screens which makes it possible but the the OP one is underneath and the design isn't in line with the rest of the phone. Not a huge problem but it's enough to annoy me!

Question (FIXED) POCO F3 Touchscreen doesn't respond well to precise small touches

(POCO F3 LATEST MIUI 14 STOCK)
I got this new phone yesterday, overall it's pretty good, but i noticed something weird, when playing games, specially shooters where you need presicion it doesn't have a good response to small movements,
it's like having high deadzones with a analog stick from a controller, it doesn't recognizes position changes of the finger immediately after the start of its movement.
i have to pass a couple milimeters of distance from the initial position to the next to register, i haven't seen much people talk about this but some people say that it is a phone issue, others say it's a miui or rom issue, i seriously want to root the phone to test other roms, but i don't want to lose the warranty right now so i want to make sure if i can do something i didn't do.
My poco x3 nfc didn't have that issue, but i sadly can't do comparisons because it's not longer working.
Video example from reddit, not my post but it is my exact problem.
Thanks for reading.
(EDIT) i fixed it! it was just to manually adjust some settings in game turbo, this was getting through my nerves, please watch this video if you have the same issues.
I have the same problem with that, but i tried a lot of roms and fixes for that nothing helped.
If you really need only in game's, i found a solution of small movement via gyroscope, maybe that could help you.
This sucks... Yeah i use gyroscope to do these small movements for now.
Do you have the same phone? I'm thinking of returning it, but i still don't know if this one i got is a bad unit or all poco f3 suffers from this. I'm still thinking what is the best thing to do.
I have same phone i don't think its unit problem . Root your phone (you can easily unroot later) and use increase touch magisk module by vito hermawan.

what did you do in game turbo?
You have to adjust touch settings manually for every game and set it exactly like this, if you don't know where to find this watch the video i linked in the post

Pro mode for some reason sucks i don't know exactly why, it feels really bad but maxing these three options make it feel perfect.
Dont use Pro mode, just go into custom and to like the guy said on video.
I don't recommend you to change any of those touch settings.it becomes more choppy. Just disable swipe to screenshot feature.

Hey guys, i fixed this problem with clearing all data of "battery and performance" and this enables 120fps in cod mobile and i dont have latency with touch. Try it, it will solve all your problems.
