Is there a setting to keep the screen from dimming and going to sleep on the CM10.1 stock browser? It's the only browser that I can get a decent experience when using Channel 4OD streams, but the screen dimming is doing my head in. Even at 30mins max in display settings isn't enough for films/ 1 hr programmes.
same too.
Screen not keep on when play video with stock browser
no download a screen-on toggle app.

while i was watching a video on Youtube on my Nexus 7, my connection was lagging so i paused the video to let it load, and the video had a bright white background while someone's in foreground talking. I noticed the brightness went down, and i freaked out thinking it might be my screen. But then i went back to the Android home menu, and i have a live wallpaper called "Rays of Light" which displays different colored lights moving on a dark/black background with little circles floating. I didn't noticed any brightness change, nor during browsing on websites, Google Play, or games...
Now i know Jelly Bean have auto-brightness enabled by default in the system settings, but i turned this off.
I do use MX Player as well, with the brightness set to go slightly up when watching a video, but i know i can turn this off (i just might, as i hate sudden brightness changes)
What i want to know is, does the Youtube app feature auto-brightness? and we just cannot disable it? I did noticed some brightness changes in other videos as well, like when watching a game preview.
For the record, i use Glazed Jelly Bean v2.1
thanks for your replies.
I have an odd problem. Until recently apps could control the screen brightness. For example my video player has a brightness gesture so I can manually set the Brightness while watching a video. However now, no matter what I do, I can't control the Brightness via third party apps. I can use Android's built-in brightness settings and auto brightness mode but no other app can control it. I really want to get this fixed since a I'd like to try the Lux Auto-Brightness app.
Any idea why this is happening? I'm running Android 4.1.2 Stock with Root.

ok, so ive been having a problem with cm10 & pie. i have expanded desktop always enabled, with status bar always showing.. but when i type, it shows a gray bar above the keyboard (size of navigation bar / spell suggest) before i type. its intrusive & takes up needed space..
the only way to get around this i found, was to disable the suggestion in keyboard settings.. is there any fix for this? i need the suggestion bar. im new to the whole touch screen era lol
2nd issue: not sure if caused by pie.. but when i go to type something, switch app via pie>task then back to typing, txt indicator shows, keys light up but txt doesnt come out.

Hi Xda fans
I recently Purchased the G900W8 and Ive run into the following issue.
I don't have any music on my phone and there aren't any videos yet either, but still the Music player shortcut controls keep coming up on my lock screen. at random times multiple times a day (without opening the Music player app) the music controls will come up on the lock screen even tho there is nothing to play. When i open my Task Manager/ Active applications tab its all clear and even when i clear my recent apps tab the controls will still be on my lock screen.
The only way i can get rid of the controls on the lock screen is by opening the Music Player app then going and going and clearing the recent apps and forcing the app to close.
Then the Controls will be gone from my lock screen, for about an hour or so.
Thanks for the help in advance.
Hey everyone, has anyone noticed that dailymotion (app and website) dims the screen when it's playing videos?
in the chrome website you can go out of fullscreen and move the mouse about and you get 5 more minutes of bright video but on the actual android app the moment you get out of the navigation overlay it dims again
I've been getting around this buy pumping the brightness up but i mean that's clearly not the solution. anyone have a solution?
