Nexus S "screen dim out" - Galaxy S I9000 General

I couldn't find any thread that discussed the question, so I decided to make my own thread.
I would really love if someone could make a kernel with the "Screen dim out animation" from the Nexus S.

somewere around nine second is the animation I'm talking about.

More than one appointment in TF3D?

Have been searching around a bit, but havent found anything usefull yet!
Just wondering if there is a tweak that would make TF3D show more appointments when you flick up the clock? Right now I can flick up the clock abut I still see max 2 appointments (usually just one), with a lot of available space below, so this should be doable?
Cheers!
Agreed, it would be pretty nice to have some more events visible.
I have waited it for such a long long time too...... hope that the tweak will appear soon!!!
Mate, this has been asked and answered so many times. The board is so cluttered with crap already!
The board is littered with crap, mostly from people "customizing" their phones with 35 kinds of graphics. This is something actually needed, and very useful. And if the question has been answered in a useful way, I've never seen it and I check every day.

Blurry wallpaper

I know that someone posted a tread about this issue on XDA or some place else on the net, but for the life of me I can't find the thread now. I am trying to figure out why my wallpaper on my lock screen is clear, but when I use the same wallpaper for the Today screen the image looks grainy. Does anyone have a link to the thread that discussed this problem, or an answer as to why this occurs? I know this has been discussed before, so I apologize for bringing it up again. I am probably just putting in the wrong words in my search.

reaganh22, It was designed to overcome the exact issue that you're dealing with...the way sense doesn't display wallpapers you choose in full high-res glory. It takes a little learning, but it's awesome once you get the hang of it. Let us know if you need a hand getting it to work for you
Thanks so much guys! That was one of the threads I came across, but thought I had seen another one. It looks like this should do the trick though.

Colour Depth Difference with live / normal wallpapers

Hi Guys,
I've seen some discussion around the HD2's screen colour depth.
I've been doing some experimenting and have found that the colour depth is decreased when using a live wallpaper.
Im using the Darkstone's Froyo V1 Build with Cotulla's latest zImage. I havn't tested with the Sense build yet...
Give it a try :-
Set a Live Wallpaper
Now Add The Analogue clock widget, power control and Home Screen Tips widgets to a blank desktop.
Notice the Gradients of the widgets look blocky and appear low resolution.
Now apply a normal Image Wallpaper and you'll notice a real increase in quality of the gradients in those Widgets
I've taken screenshots to show you but when the screenshot of the Live wallpaper is looked at on the computer it looks perfect so must be an issue with the Way the HD2 is displaying it..
Here's the 2 screenshots :-

Goodness me do threads cost you anything?? -
Dont read them if your not interested?
This is something that no-one has noticed so far and actually could be quite important - now why dont you go back to your 9million page thread and continue pointing people to post#4 like the real helpful fella you are eh....ffs
Yes, it's especially noticeable on the anologue clock but not on the pics you posted up. Didnt notice it at first. Sharp eyes you've got there. Lol

HD2 has poor colour quality from the get go, running multiple applications let alone an OS that is overlapping another OS on top of of multiple applications running in the background is bound to have more than some effects, least of all important right now being the colour. I have no idea what you're talking about, but perhaps a quick browse over the forum rules would be a good start, it isnt 9 million pages long so you shouldnt have too much trouble. The least you could do is post in a thread of whoever ROM/Android release you are using.

Yeah unfortunately they look normal on the screenshots i took for some reason which leads me to believe there's an issue with the way it's been displayed on the HD2.

First of all - the point of my post was to 'Prove' that the HD2 can display more then 65K colours as was first thought, if you'd read my post at all - what you've posted above is a complete nonsensical response.
This IS important as people 'like you' seem to think the HD2's screen is of low quality when in fact it isn't.
Maybe you'd have an idea of what im talking about if you took the time to read my post instead of 'trying' to be a Mod?
Maybe you should peruse the Forum rules and then you may in fact realise that i havn't broken any of them?
I wasn't moaning about it not booting, GSOD, SOD, No Sound etc i posted a unique 'observation' that may help in the further development of 'proper' graphics drivers for our port.
I also wasn't moaning about a bug of this particular build - so why should it be posted in the Thread for that build?
I just think some people around here have a chip on their shoulder and are trying to be something they are not - & you dear sir are not an XDA mod.
...whoa...nice...calm down guys...calm down...
Yep, no reason to get upset. I think that's a pretty interesting point you found there. Do you have any opportunity to store the screenshots into a lossless format? I really can't tell any significant difference from the two jpg´s you've posted there - been watching the two for about a minute and i can tell you that my eyes are known to color difference detection
i think it's better a thread like this than the 2348740860th always about "no booting, no sound, no radio, no android, no intelligence", all completely useless if the author read the forum form 5 minutes before posting, this thread is about a new "problem / symptom" and it's not useless... maybe it's not importante now to obtain 16m colors, but it's always something that can be fixed
on topic guys Dev forum not flaming
Keep it peaceful

i haven't really used an actual android phone (day to day) but im sure Google put that in there, because of Live wallpaper taking up CPU power thus lowering the quality of widgets.
EDIT: and the pics look EXACTLY the same (except for the wallpaper and time of coarse.)
but, on the device itself it is less quality, ive seen it before and thats why i use a static wallpaper.
Hi guys, yeah as i said in the post for some reason the screenshots taken directly didnt really show the difference for some reason.
I've taken some pictures using a camera and the difference is clearly highlighted here.
Cheers
Paul
I installed a live wallpaper on my Desire V5 build and noticed that the moon on the weather portion of the Sense clock (it was a clear night last night) changed color and looked a little more green than gray with the live wallpaper running. Don't know if its a bug or not, but it's just my observation.
Sorry to resurrect this ageing thread but it at least shows I bothered to search for it.
I seem to get this effect on some ROMS more than others, I also get it on the wallpaper itself but only for some.
I am thinking that it must be the wallpaper itself for me, it must be in a colour depth beyond the capabilities of the phone. For instance if I install the honeycomb ADW theme with the wallpaper enclosed I get this effect on the wallpaper.
Couldn't see any other threads about this, any ideas anyone?

Lower/Turn Off Backlight on Boot

I've noticed that my battery takes a definite hit when I reboot my phone; I know that it's doing a lot of work with leading everything, but the screen's on full brightness, too. I was wondering if there was a way to turn it off (or, better, turn it to a bare minimum - I just installed a badass boot animation )?
Sorry if this has been asked/answered before, and/or is in the wrong forum - I did a search and didn't find anything, and couldn't really decide which forum was best for the question...

I, too, am interested in this. Theres no need to have it that bright lol.
Sent from my Droid Incredible running CM7.0.3.
I'd try reposting this in the development sub forum. I'm interested to.

If you know how to make a boot animation of your own, you could just use photoshop and make every color a bit darker.

Damn just as I arrived,
some more tricks: (posted also in that other thread)
1.while watching a video, press the power button to lock screen (disables touch input and hardware keys) for interruption free movie watching
2. disable ripple effect on lock screen to improve lockscreen wallpaper image clarity
3. disable s voice and "pop up note on lockscreen" to improve on wake up lag
4. i use 'button savior' for soft keys...easy to use with s-pen too
5. for scrolling wallpaper with stock unmodded toucwiz, use the samsung lab wallpapers-paperland and parallax winter/spring/fall/twilight live wallpapers
6. you can record live fm streaming from the fm radio :victory:
7.keep checking s-suggest appstore...you can get some paid apps like 'virtua tennis' for free there
8.if you are rooted, go to system/media/videos...you will find 'androidinspace' video
There is already a tip & tricks thread? Why wasting time and forum space by starting this one?
This gotta be closed soon ....
Sir there is a thread in place for this type of info:
