Light Sensors in Gingerbread - Galaxy S I9000 General

I believe that the light sensors are broken in GB (JVK,JVA,JVB,JVH) all
anyone noticed this?
it goes only from 5 to 5000 if you want to make sure you can use apps such as phone tester to check it.
This is an important problem because it affects the auto brightness settings and other screen settings.
if you tick auto brightness what happens is it increase/decrease dramatically not gradually is it was in Froyo.
Any ideas/fixes ?

Yeah, there's definitely something up with it in JVB, had to switch off auto-brightness, it was driving me nuts while reading or gaming, I noticed it change many times for no reason while I had the phone left down and wasn't using it too. I leave it on 25% now but it would be nice to be able to use it again.

I believe the problem was present in SGS II but the latest firmware (I9100XEKE2) fixed it if someone knows how to port it...

mine goes from 10 to 160 in cm7 but its a jump not gradual. im on cm7 nightly 2.3.4

i hope this will be fixed soon!

I noticed this in JVK but since putting on JVO, I have not had this problem and compass seems better too.

Short Jk6 Review

JK6 is what I have been looking for. Everything works in this build so far, the quadrant scores are not up to snuff yet, but the rom is snappy as hell. Still getting 60+ fps in Quake3. The issue about the call output not working when you call someone when connected to a headphone or tape adapter with no inline mic is gone. Like I said, when custom roms are built off this base, it will only get better. But if you were waiting for a great Froyo Rom, this is it.
Sorry wrong forum...
Like to to this as well. The battery life and signal strength on jk6 is excellent with out any tweaks. So far so good i feel with a few apk changes here and the there i could use this and wont feel like im missing anything as far as a smartphones goes. that being said i cant wait for tw, eugene or cm6 because this is a hobby
seems strange that when any of the developer starting to mess with the kernel, the battery life goes down. It happened with Cyanogen and it happened to Eugene as well. Anyone got any idea
Additionally, finally have true playlist support in the music player!
One downside is that the Option to enable/disable screen staying awake when connected to power is gone. It is permanently enabled.

Even though it is a downside, you can manually turn off the screen when you charge these power hunger beasts... All else is absofunkytootly amazing.
Yup. I created a word. Thats how much I'm excited about this rom.

Yes, battery was at 60% at 11pm last night!!! 60%!! Signal issues are also gone, GPS is working great, and I am actually getting a usable edge connection now (120kbps / 80kbps) when in areas of suck. Radio update has been incredible.
My screen still goes to sleep while charging. This is not a global bug, it's just you LOL

Have not tested the wifi calling, I keep it turned off because I was thinking it was a battery hog by definition. I will check on it and report back later today.

I wasn't clear on that, when it is plugged in to the computer is stays on as it detects a USB connection. It's possible this only happens when usb debugging is enabled.
Plugged in to an AC adapter though display goes to sleep.
This ROM from the start seems MUCH more "snappier" than the JK2 Eugene put out.
But, I'm still on the fence regarding Battery Life on JK6 vs JK2.
I am testing, but I noticed From a full charge then unplugged overnight (7hours) with only Gmail+Contacts Synching, I went from 100-89% using JK6. When I was using JK2 I went from 100-98% overnight.
Some of the cause could have been from some of the additional bloatware I found running in "Services" on JK6 for me, under Application in Settings, like Slacker Radio, so I will compare again tonight.
On another note, I've also been comparing using Power Tutor, which isn't for Galaxy S phones at the moment, but it does give a lot more detail than the stock Battery Usage app. I found that with the screen off on JK6, there is only a 3-7mw drain. On JK2, that was more like 25mw.
With the screen on lowest brightness, (auto-brightness off). I saw around 400-425mw on both. It's interesting to note that the light sensor draws about 100mw, according to Power Tutor...
Again, all this is up for discussion, especially since Power Tutor is not optimized for the Galaxy S...

Just plugged into USB with debugging enabled and the screen goes off after the 30 seconds that it is set to. Not sure what would cause it to stay on if that is what you are seeing.

There are still issues with Wifi Calling - I don't know about the battery drain piece, which a lot of people complain about, but The ringer still only rings on the earpiece, and not the main speaker , where a normal call would ring from. This makes it easy to miss a call, unless you're using vibrate.
Has anyone tested if the battery drain is better on JK6 with WiFi Calling?
I've made about 90 minutes of wi-fi calls today and a moderate amount of use of the phone display doing some other non-CPU intensive things.
59% after 6 hours of use.
Wi-Fi calling, other than the problem with the ringing, is working pretty good for me.
Battery use is a little bit better than stock JI6. It's not mind-boggling better, bit it is better.
My screen does not stay on while charging. I wish I had an option to do so. When I'm driving around So Cal I like to keep Google Maps up with my current location so I can monitor traffic problems, and there's no way to keep it constantly up on the display, or at least I haven't figured out how to do it yet. If anyone knows, let me know. I wish we still had the option to stay awake while on a charger.
There have been some posts by people which suggest this may be the final ROM. I'm pretty sure it's not. It's got some bugs here and there which I wouldn't expect to see on a final build, even from Samsung/T-Mobile. Nothing earth shattering, but enough to keep this from being the final release. That having been said, if you're currently running stock JI6, I see no reason why you shouldn't migrate to JK6. It's a definite improvement.

Interesting, I guess I'm just an exception
I love this rom, however, there are two things bugging me:
1) There is a slight lag in the app drawer when swiping left and right.
2) In Contacts, when you click on a name to call someone, there used to be the option to Call/Message someone. Now when you click on a contact, their contact card comes up with a big 'Message' button. While nothing horrible, it can be annoying.

Have you used Screebl before? I can't live without it.
My screen goes off too. It's dang annoying because I like to keep it on while I'm sitting at my desk using my pc.
If we can figure out why it still stays on for some people, maybe we could hack it into our phones? Is it a setting stored in a property file or a database somewhere?

Do I have a bad xperia play?

Hey guys I'm having some concerns about my xperia play and so i want to know if i should be worried...
My screen flickers. ( Not on/off) but between shades. It's hard to explain but it drops between levels of brightness, but here's the deal i turn auto brightness off and it still flickers. Now i have noticed that the screen will dim ( flicker shades) with the orientation of the phone. Idk.
Also when I'm downloading the games thru xperia app it takes forever, i have high speed internet and I'm connected via WiFi but should i be expecting A 150MB download to take up to 45 minutes. Seems kinda slow to me.
Thanks in advance guys.
By Tue screen flickering if u mean the auto brightness increasing and decreasing immensely at times its normal since u cant turn off the auto brightness in our phone....
About the games..most of the games took 15-20 mins or less for me on an 8 mpbs connection

Is there some kind of other brightness settings, i turned auto brightness off. And I'm still getting fluctuations in the shade of color.
if you have root you can disable this, but it is only temporary as somewhere in the system it re-enables this.
create a gscript with su ability
start script below
echo "0" > /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0040/leds/lcd-backlight/als/enable
end script above
do not include the start and end parts
lasts around an hour, stops the flicker in bad light situations

It wont turn off even if you untick it, its an anoying bug, hopefully custom roms/kernels will solve this, dont worry about the downloads, even with high speed internet, keep in mind most of the developers are small companies and cant afford expensive hosting, even the gameloft servers are slow imo

You can NOT turn auto brightness off on the Play, it is hard wired right into the os, even if you used an app or widget saying it if off it is NOT! there is nothing you can do until SE fix it or some members here mod the os,
All the Play's do exactly what your describing, lots of topic here and elsewhere about it, everybody moans about it!
And regarding downloads, things from the market download fast for me, very fast, but other stuff from other places can be very slow, gameloft for example, takes hours! just depends on the servers your downloading from.
Hey thanks guys for the information. When i get to a desktop I'll hit the thanks button for all of you. I think my WiFi was acting up last night, i was playing some zombies and downloading torrents at the same time.lol. anyways thanks guys again.

To be honest with you I like the auto brightness. I think is super responsive which other phones it seems like it takes forever to kick in which is why I normally shut it off

ICS in Note
After upgrading to ICS via kies,
Battery seems to drain very fast.
Camera hangs up sometimes and other camera related apps like Instagram also but maybe the pic quality is little better.
It seems to crash when some other apps runs too.
Not sure if it was there before but I can pause music and video if I show my palm on the screen.
The screen rotates faster than in GB with a pause at the beginning though.
News fonts are good.
Window animations are good but still dont' know how to stop it since it might be draining battery fast.
Can use Chrome now and it's fast.
I cannot use Mass Storage Mode. I recieve a "Ui stopped to work" error.
I am facing,
1. High android OS usage. Sometime its higher than Brightness, and most of the time its highest usage of batt after brightness. (I read somewhere, it said its calculation errors, but I think its not, cause my battery no longer last that long.)
2. Camera will sometimes fail to operate. I really dunno what is wrong with that.
3. Phone just cant go into deep slp. Its being kept awake by some apps (Which I cant narrow it) Using BetterBatteryStats, I found out its I2_HSIC. (Whats this I2_HSIC ??)
I am using a 5400mAh mugen batt. previously on GB, my usage can last me 24hrs, now it can only last 16hrs or less. I installed lesser apps, and lesser widgets. Disable account sync and google backup. Settings more or less kept the same.
Overnight my batt can reduce by 21%, it never happened before. lol. ICS...

Occasionally, usually about 1 time per day, My phone display will start to flash, with random green and red colors. The screen I'm on, will flash those colors then star to shake and slide.
It looks like a television station not tuned quite right on an analog antenna (if anybody remembers that!)
I can't reproduce it regularly, but It think it has happened when going from an Application, back to the home screen using the home button.

I can get the screen back by just waiting it out. Usually takes about 2 minutes. I sure do wish I knew what was happening, though, so I could confirm no damage was being done.

As far as #2 goes, go to your battery stats and see if "media" is listed. If so, force close it and try again. Seems to work for me. I'm not sure if it is just me or not because I have been playing with settings lately, but the media scanner tends to run wild it seems (also seems to lend to battery drain).
I am just disappointed that they left out some of the nice features of ics like the updated gallery and camera. Seems kind of lazy to me and no wonder things arent working well if they are mix and matching gingerbread and ics rather than going all in and starting development from there. I would definitely go back to using one of the non tw ics roms if it weren't for the sod issues I was having...

Always On Display bug/issue after latest Firmware update 09.April.16?

Hey, i updated to the latest firmware that came out today 9. april 2016. Firmware version : G935FXXU1APD1/G935FNEE1APC5/G935FXXU1APD1. My Phone is a Nordic Edition S7E with Carrier Telenor Norway.
after the update everything works like it should except the Always on Display. The AoD works but its always on the lowest brightness... it moves around, shows what i ask etc but it wont get brighter when i go outside or shine something at it, auto brightness works fine on the screen when its on. my question is: does this happen to anyone else? this has to be a software bug within the AoS app or the OS itself :/ cheers
What version does it show in the AOD settings ( About AOD)
Version 1.1.14
I guess its a change, this is the version i have. Im on fw PB6
it seems like it does work tho much slower than before, i think they tweaked the sensitivity on the brightness, because before it changed waaaaaay to easy, now it stays on the right brightness for the area you are in, tho if you go from a dark room to a bright room it takes waaaaaaaaay to long for it to change, and when you take it out of you're pocket it will still be on the lowest brightness for some reason... so AoD is now useless outdoors if its sunny out, ill guess they will change it again since i think they over did it.
it is not a problem it is intended to reduce power uage.

iknow that, but the point of AoD is that you should not need to turn ON your display, now you have to if you are outside, since the update rate it so low on the brightness. for indoor use its awesome tho.

Idk about the brightness, mine bases itself off of lighting around me. As for it moving, that is to save your screen from AMOLED burn in.
I have a real problem with AOD, after the latest T-Mobile April security update, AOD doesn't move and it should to prevent burn in. I currently have it turned off until it's fixed.

i know it has to move the issue is that it takes so long for the brightness to increase/decrease after the update when the light changes in the room/place you are, so when you are outside and take your phone out its on the lowest brightness, so you cant see anything, it takes over 20 sec before it increases the brightness. but why there is so many " latest version" of the AoD is weird if you ask me. it worked before the firmware update tho it increased the brightness to the max much easier before, so it used a lot of battery, i think they tried to fix this but overdid it. that is why i'm asking if its happening to anyone else.

Yeah they really should put it in the app store, just like they did with the edge features, but i didnt receive the new updates yet, so im waiting for it
i did a test now, it only changes brightness when the AoD moves for me, i guess that is how it should work, i don't remember how often i did back on the PB4 firmware but it was much more sensitive that is for sure.
latest firmware did break AOD for me too, T-Mobile US. AOD no longer moves. Not sure if I noticed before but waking the screen up now with power or home button, the screen fades in somewhat. It's a very quick fade in but noticeable because it's not instant.
I am seeing some serious problems with the AOD- I even asked for an exchange thinking something was defective. I got my new phone today and it reacts in the exact same way: AOD brightness changes completely at random ie I am not able to see any sort of correlation between how dark/light it is where I am. AOD version is 1.1.06, while the firmware version is PB9.
The other issue I am seeing is with GPS- worst that I have seen until now. I tried it with GMaps and a couple similar apps- the arrow that shows the direction does not move around based on which way the phone is pointing. This was the exact same on the phone that I sent back in exchange for the new one this morning..

Auto brightness training

I often have to be very persistent in training the phone for brightness in the auto mode. Especially in the evening, when the brightness slider is to the left of the middle. I set the desired brightness, but it is not fixed. You have to do it 10 times or more, and after a minute the brightness again lives its own life. Has anyone come across this on customs ROMs? Everything was great on stock.

I often have to be very persistent in training the phone for brightness in the auto mode. Especially in the evening, when the brightness slider is to the left of the middle. I set the desired brightness, but it is not fixed. You have to do it 10 times or more, and after a minute the brightness again lives its own life. Has anyone come across this on customs ROMs? Everything was great on stock.

Maybe you don't know auto-brightness can be trained due to users preferences. At least it works on stock.
Or don't you use auto-brightness at all?
I am accustomed to auto-brightness at any time of a day and I like to use it. I don't want to change it mannualy after each changes of circumstances.
However on the custom ROM the process isn't so easy. I just have doubts if it will be successful at all.

There is nothing special to say more here. Just in the auto-brightness mode, the user sets the slider to the desired level at any time. This is repeated a certain number of times and after that the phone remembers the new settings and, depending on this, the new auto-brightness algorithm works. The learning process for brightness is endless. You can adjust it anytime to your preference. In any case, it worked fine on stock and the phone memorized new settings very quickly.

oh! its a cool thing. Thanks
I tried A11, A12, A13 ROMs, and after that I'm on A10 stock again. I think that's the best way for me to keep my nerve sells. Now the autobrigness doesn't even need additional training.
