Android :: Accelerometer Power Tied To Display Backlight

Mar 14, 2009

Although I haven't received confirmation from anyone at Google, I can confidently state that when the power to the display goes off, one can no longer obtain data from the accelerometers. I can easily think of a number of examples of where one would like to continue collecting accelerometer data even when the display is of. Supposing that I wanted to "fix" this, can anyone suggest where should I start looking? Would this be in the SDK, the kernel, or in some proprietary firmware that I can't touch?

Samsung Fascinate :: Backlight Won't Stay Off?

Nov 18, 2010

I've had my Fascinate for a few weeks and just tonight out of the blue, no matter what timeout interval I have my backlight to shut off at, it goes blank and a few seconds later turns itself back on. Then keeps cycling on and off indefinitely. This happens whether or not it's charging.I'm not rooted, and the only things I installed today were Pulse news reader and Nose Candy. I've since uninstalled both and the problem persists. Any help? Obviously this can't stay, or else my battery will die within a couple hours, even when not in use.

HTC EVO 4G :: Disable Automatic Backlight Dimming While Charging

Jun 11, 2010

I'm running into an issue, that I'm sure many of you have ran into at some point and found a way around. When I have my Phone Plugged into the Charger (For example when in my car) after a set amount of time (I think it's around 30 seconds) my screen will Dim to only about 25% brightness(But never shut off completely). As you can imagine, this is horribly inconvenient when I'm running Google maps or sprint navigation. How can I make it, so that when I'm charging the phone, the screen just always stays on and does not dim at all? And then when I'm on battery the screen resumes the normal behavior of shutting off after 30 seconds. I've tried setting the "Stay Awake" option under "Applications > Development" to on, I've also tried setting the "Automatic Brightness" option under "Sound & Display > Brightness" to off. Neither of these worked.

Motorola Droid :: Lock Screen Without Turning Off Backlight

Nov 22, 2009

Just a neat trick, but not sure how useful it really is.If you want to lock the screen without turning the phone backlight off, you can do so by placing a finger on any of the four "touch-sensitive" buttons and pressing the power key.The screen will stay on, but the device will lock.It's up to you to find a practical purpose for doing so.I just though I'd share the feature (bug?) with you all.
