View 49 Replies View RelatedI'm finding my screen is too bright for me to read with in bed at night, even when set to the dimmest setting and with the background black and the text brown. I had this same issue with my old Palm Tungsten E2, but there was a program that allowed the screen to be adjusted to even lower than the manufacturer's level. Is there a similar app for Android? (Actually, I find my screen too bright at the best of times, too.)

I have a htc sensation xl. My brightness control stopped working and I now I can't change the brightness anymore. It doesn't matter if I set to 30% or 100%, the brightness stays the same.I can only adjust the brightness from 0 to 25%. I already did and wipe and stiched a phone.

WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = getWindow().getAttributes();

And yes, the auto-brightness is disabled under settings.
I use the following code to dim the screen in one of my apps...

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am very anal about the brightness setting. I keep the setting very low to save battery. While indoors this is almost never a problem but when I go outside I can't see the screen. This makes it very hard to change the brightness. How do other people solve this or am I the only one that has this problem? Does anyone know of a way to map a button (like home button) and change the operation of the long press?
View 31 Replies View RelatedHello, I would like to ask what settings are necessary for my application to be available on all screen sizes: Is it enough to compile it using SDK 1.6 (but target is set to 1.5 and API level to 3) or maybe I have to set target to 1.6 and API level to 4?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to control to turn screen off/on. I'm using device HTC G1 (1.6). To turn off screen I write:
WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = getWindow().getAttributes();
lp.screenBrightness = 0f;
getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
But if I want to turn on screen:
lp.screenBrightness = 1f;
getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
Screen not turn on.
if lp.screenBrightness = 0.02f;
screen change bright, but not turn off.
Which right way to control by screen?
To save power I keep the screen brightness down low - what I want to know is - is there any app that overrides this setting when my phone rings so that the screen goes to full brightness so I can tell properly who is calling me?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm currently building a custom ROM based on android 4.1.2 and I am having two questions:
1. In Settings -> Display -> Brightness there is no checkbox for automatic screen brightness. Can this feature be added (the check box to turn on/off the automatic brightness)?
2. When I activate the automatic screen brightness (using notification bar toggle) and the battery drains under 15% the brightness is setted to maximum and the Brightness page in settings can't be used, is there a way to fix this?
Any app that will automatically change the screen brightness based on a defined battery level. Preferably with the option to define how much the screen is dimmed as well.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThere are apparently at least three different techniques for changing screen brightness in the Android OS. Two of them no longer work post-cupcake and the third accepted technique evidently has a bug. I would like to increase screen brightness at the start of a one-view activity then turn the brightness back to the user setting at the end of the activity. No buttons, no second view or second activity. Just a maxed brightness at start and a return to original brightness setting at the end of the activity. The examples of the current technique using WindowManager.LayoutParams that I have located range from 2 lines of code
WindowManager.LayoutParams lp = getWindow().getAttributes();
lp.screenBrightness = 100 / 100.0f;
getWindow().setAttributes(lp);
To several pages of source code and numerous activities. Is there a simple example of maxing the screen brightness at start that someone can provide a link to?
Ok so I'm about a week and a half maybe more in with the froyo rom the newst one and while I love it especially the battery life. I'm experiencing some new problems that I don't recall having before. The screen will randomly turn off even though I have the screen delay set to 2 minutes. Other times it will just get dim to about 30 percent regardless of the brightness setting. I'm wondering if this is strict lg a hardware issue or something to do with the rom? I'm just afraid one time its not going to turn back on lol. Also I'm having data lockups where I have to restart the phone at least once a day. I don't recall experiencing this before. A little help and or understanding would be much appreciated on these 2 topics....also does anyone know of any better roms? Like one where wireless tethering app actually works? I have yet to have it work since installing this rom.
View 1 Replies View RelatedUntil now I had my screen set to auto brightness.First, +1 to those who said in other threads that the screen looks even better when you turn that off and put brightness all the way up.But my question here is why, on auto brightness, the screen sometimes increased or decreased brightness when I was using it. It happened all the time. The only thing I can rule out as the cause was time delay, because sometimes it happened as I was typing or just after, and sometimes it would happen after a delay. I think it must be connected to either orientation, or movement, or brightness sensor detecting the ambient light, or something.If I could figure out how to make it stop doing that I would go back to auto-brightness.
View 1 Replies View RelatedLong time lurker, please no flaming.The Droid has an awesome screen, especially when set at full brightness. However, I typically have it set at the lowest brightness to conserve battery. On my old Windows phone I was able to have the brightness adjust to full when it was plugged in. I've looked for this setting on the Droid and thus far have been unsuccessful in locating this ability.Does anyone know if this setting exists or if there is an app that would do this?
