Can anyone direct me to where the brightness widget is? The one where you can toggle the screen brightness. I can't find it under widgets. Either its not there (as in, it wasnt a default widget) or I am completely blind. I remember seeing this widget in alot of Android OS vids and would like to easily switch brightnesses depending on the environment

So I was reading that a couple features 2.2 was supposed to add was making Auto-Brightness one of the settings on the Power widget. I'm not seeing this on my phone after the update. Is that the same for everybody or do I have to do something to make it work? (I've tried removing and re-adding the widget).Another benefit I saw was that you were supposed to be able to press & drag up on the keyboard to get the special character instead of having to press & hold. Also not seeing this. Is this because we don't have the stock keyboard in Sense or another issue?
i know there are brightness toggle apps out there but im looking for one that looks like it belongs on the sense interface. i want it to blend with the wifi and bluetooth ones. anyone know of something?
View 2 Replies View RelatedThe "automatic" brightness setting sucks. It doesn't detect high light situations, like being outdoors. To get the proper brightness you need to use the power control widget to set the brightness up to see it in sunlight. Not a big deal, but after using the widget you either have to manually reset it to automatic in the settings, turn the brightness off or on high. Its just kind of annoying. When your in sunlight without the brightness up to the highest level I can see nothing on the phone. Literally the screen appears to be off. Is this just my phone, or does the incredible really not sense high light situations.

View 4 Replies View RelatedSo I just got my phone two days ago and I have auto brightness set which works well. What I do notice though, and it might just be in my head because I read the issues with the pink hue on the screens, is the following.When using the phone normally it looks great, the screen looks really nice. When you place the phone down and have the screen timeout set (I have mine set to one minute) a few seconds before it goes to sleep mode it dims the screen, and if I'm on my main home screen it looks fine, however, if I'm on a page where there is a lot of white like a white background, it seems as though the screen takes on a weird hue right before it shuts off. I wouldn't say it is a pink hue, but it is definitely a weird hue. It isn't that big of a deal because like I said, it only happens before the screen automatically times out. Anyone else experiencing this? If so, what are your settings (screen timeout time, is auto brightness on or off)?

View 11 Replies View RelatedDoes your brightness sensor seem to be a bit too sensitive? When I have my Incredible on auto brightness and I am reading a website I can watch it adjust up and down when there are no changes in the brightness of the room I am in. My fix was to just select a brightness and turn auto off.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if anyone found a way to get the incredible to go lower than the default 11% lowest setting sometimes at night even at this lowest setting it is still too bright and I wish it could go a bit lower also is there anyway to get the 4 home/menu lights to turn off? I really wish there was a widget for this as those too can be distracting when trying to watch a video at night.
View 8 Replies View RelatedThis is not a perfect solution but it does give a work around to the fact that, even though you can set the phone to not have the screen shut off when plugged in, you still have the problem of it dimming to lowest setting. Anyway, what I did to fix this was to download a program on the app store called keep screen. It gives you the option to make it so that the screen doesn't time out or dim for certain apps. What I did was just go in and select all apps and tell it to not dim on any of them.
Then on the front page of this app there is a button to "start/stop service" I use this button like a toggle. If my phone is plugged in I toggle that button and toggle it off when I unplug. It is not a perfect solution and requires manually doing the toggling but it's the best solution I have found to keep the screen and brightness up when my phone is plugged in. Anyway, just thought I would share in case anyone else was looking for a solution for this. Also, if anyone has found a better way of doing this i would love to hear it.
Anyone notice that those buttons are really bright? Is there any way to turn them down?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI noticed that when i set the alarm clock using htc clock widget, if I kill the clock task using advanced task killer, the alarm doesn't go off. Is this really how it works? I feel like the clock and its alarms should just run as part of the system.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am using the factory-stock clock widget. I have noticed recently that when the phone "sleeps" the widget will not update the time. However, the clock that shows up on the locked screen is correct. The widget is also my alarm clock and since is does not update, it does not work. It was working fine for the first 2 weeks. Being very new to smart phones, I am sure I changed something or downloaded an app that messes with the updating...

I heard good stuff about Pure Calendar widget but i was looking for other opinions before I committed.
What is your calendar of choice, keep in mind I need to find one I can download so stock calendars are out of the question.
I use Astrid so it needs to work with that
On my Eris i really liked using the HTC Battery Widget. I guess it's resolution is too small for the incredible.
View 7 Replies View RelatedSo a few days ago I tried out BatteryLeft
I am so impressed with this widget that I felt it deserves its own thread.
Not only does it tell you your battery %, but it tells you the est. time left and time that it will die. It's way off at first, but after a few cycles (let the phone die, charge, and repeat) it gets really accurate.
That aside, this widget will show you the apps using the most CPU, Network, GPS, Sensor, and "Partial Wake" usage.
For some weird reason, the GPS on/off button won't stay put. I'll hit it to turn it off and it turns itself back on again. It takes two or three turns to get it to stay off. Any suggestions?
