General :: Make Display Settings For New Android OS Look Like Gingerbread's
Aug 1, 2013
When I look at the display on Android devices where the OS is newer than Gingerbread, my eyes start hurting from the strain. For example, I tried updating my Tmobile G2's ROM from Gingerbread to ICS , then to Jellybean and after hours of tinkering with the display settings my eyes were still hurting. When I gave up and went back to Gingerbread, then my eyes were fine looking at the screen.
My question is: what exactly changed in the display settings in the newer version of the Android oS? Also How can I use an OS like Jellybean or ICS, but make the screen display with the brightness that was available via Gingerbread?I did try the ADW Gignerbread theme, but that mainly changes the look and feel of the icons, not the display

I want to ask is it possible to remove unwanted language list from locale settings? I'm using Gingerbread 2.3.6 stock rom on Samsung Galaxy Ace.
As you can see on the attached picture I want to remove marked language. Is it possible?
How can I do that? Do I need to edit LocalePicker.smali in Settings.apk smali folder?

I have got a mediatek powered phablet and I miss the wireless display settings. So i decided to look over the settings.apk and saw the following line in xml/display_settings.xml:
Code:
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/wifi_display_settings_title" android:key="wifi_display" android:fragment="com.android.settings.wfd.WifiDisplaySettings" />
But there is no wifi_display setting..
Is there a method to activate the desired option? Maybe it is only hidden and I have to unhide it.. I installed an app to show the wfd dialog, works fine. But I want the android settings way to do this..

I have 70 tablets and i'm trying to set up a quickway to make them all the same, i have most of it sorted. All i need now is to set sleep display time to 10 mins and change the wallpaper to company logod one.
So far my approach has been, set one up how i want it, use adb to copy files to computer, connect next tablet and push those settings.
1/ where is the sleep timer setting stored?
2/ how do i set a wallpaper using adb?

Display Settings so that the color/pictures on the S3 is almost exactly the same as the ones in my computer. It's sad that in my phone, the photos look so great but when I upload or share them on Facebook, it looks washed out and lacks color. Also, I Googled the color teal... It looks sooo different in the S3 because it has more contrast, however, when I took a screenshot of it and uploaded it on Facebook, it looks the same as the one that can be found in the PC.

i searched for long time to use sd card as internal storage i tryed lot of a2sd app but it not worked like i wanted, until i try mount2sd, i have a 64gb memory card, i made a fat 32 partition of 5gb and a 50 gb partition in ext-3 for install app, i moved all android system in, but now in setting i have the 16gb of internal storage (who is nearly empty because all was moved to the ext-3 partition) and the 5gb fat 32 partition for the sd card. I send you pictures in attachment you can see what i talking about.
and the 50 gb partition is not here it is invisible it is just visible in titanium backup or root explorer i made a shortcut in the home screen. but now the question is: is there a thing to do like in xposed module or modify a text in system or anything to do for make the 50 gb ext-3 partition visible in parameter/setting? Can make an app or an exposed module to make it visible?
because i see you can make custom rom, i see in volt.stab but don't know what to write for add the partition... is possible or make it possible? or its to hard to make?

I have my own custom Content Provider that loads a database which contains the settings information for my application.
I load the settings from the ContentProvider on the creation of my Settings activity.
My Settings activity is made up of a PreferenceScreen and Dialog based EditText's.
The following code shows how I use the preference screen and edit texts.
So as you can see from the first image this works and displays the menu with the information underneath.
The problem is in image two, when I click on a choice in the menu the dialog pops up but it is empty, I would like to be able to load the data from my content provider into the edit text in the dialog, so in image one it shows "Donal" as the user name so in image two "Donal" should also appear in the edit text in the dialog.
I would also like to be able to listen to the OK button in the dialog so when a user changes a setting I can update the data in my content provider.
what I'm trying to do?
CODE:......................

This may be a simple one to answer, hopefully it is. When I recieve an SMS on my desire I get the notification sound, but I see nothing on the screen until I wake up the screen by pressing the power button. If you do not hear the notification you have to check for messages, I have found sms on the phone that have between there for a few hours before i noticed.
Is there a setting to help with this?

I have some images that I loaded from a remote source stored in Bitmap variables and I want to display them. In addition to switching between these images the user should also be able to zoom and pan them. My first idea was to somehow pass them via an intent to the built-in gallery application but this doesn't seem to be possible.
A solution that is suggested in several places is using a WebView since it already supports zooming and panning.
My question is how does my Bitmap data get into the WebView? Do I have to write it to a file first, which I would have to remove again later, or is there an easier way?
Or are there even better ways to accomplish my main goal, which is displaying Bitmap data as zoomable and panable images?

Google brought more language support to Android with Gingerbread. How do I use it? the only indication of Arabic support is that, when I get a text message in Arabic, it shows the letters in Arabic, but not connected to each other the way they should be.What I want is to make everything Arabic,not just messages received in Arabic.
