Notification bar brightness

When I was messing around with my epic yesterday I did something I never did before.
If you swype your finger on the notification bar you can turn your brightness up or down.
Just wanted to let you all know this, Did not see any other post on it.

Droid notification

For some reason the droid sound changed to an annoying ringing tone when I turn on/off my phone... anyone know how to turn it back to the droid sound?

did this just start happening out of the blue? or did it happen after you installed or changed something?
also, are you refering to the sd card notification sound? turn off the sd card notification in the Sound settings and see if your phone still does the annoying tone

I have no idea...I updated mp3 music download and then I noticed that this happened... but I don't know if that did anything... I don't know what the sd notification sound is... but it's the default ringtone that goes on instead of the droid sound

are you rooted?
i think the sound file responsible for this is in /system/customize/resource/
see if it's in there. you must be rooted and using Root Explorer

I'm not rooted... running stock rom

Screen Timeout

Has anyone figured out a way to keep the screen on when maps is on? I know Sprint Nav will stay on, but I would like to keep maps on without the screen timing out. You would think Google would have a feature that when plugged in would allow certain apps to keep the screen on.

I know it sounds like I'm plugging the hell out of it lately (it has so many features), but widgetsoid had a toggle to keep screen on

Check in system whether the sounds are available in camera sounds or not. You can do this by using root explorer.

Yes, there is. It is called Screencast video recording. Look it up in the Market. I've tried it, it works pretty good.

I think shoot me had an update allowing it to record screen casts as well.
