Change Touch Key Light Duration setting from script/tasker? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Is there a script or way to "toggle" the touch key light duration without going into the settings.
I would like to have this disable at certain times of the day (probably via tasker) or have a shortcut to just click it to toggle it.
Anyone have any ideas?
Tasker cant do this because its a device specific setting...

Apps that ignore the auto-rotate setting.

I have my auto-rotate setting turned off, but there are apps that still ignore that setting and rotate when I tilt the phone. Any way to force portrait mode? So far I have this problem with:
Chase
Wolfram Alpha
Qik
It's my (limited) understanding that developers can ignore the system setting for auto rotate, and do whatever they want. My company has an internal app that is being developed for Android, and they too are ignoring (or not checking) the system setting for auto-rotate and rotating the screen regardless. So, you can contact Chase and Wolfram, or just deal with it :/
Please post questions in Q&A section.
I don't see a Q&A section in the xda app.
And thanks for the answer dorqus.

[Q] Backlight timet

Can someone tell me how to adjust the backlight timer? I dont like it when I read something and the screen goes black so quickly.

Did you know you have a settings menu for many things, like how long the backlight stays on? Go explore that menu.
Menu--->Settings--->Display--->Screen Timeout--->you choose the timeout duration...

Sorry for the noobie questions. Next time, I'll make the effort to find the answers on the easy stuff.

I know your issue was solved, but just thought I would mention that the advanced power app has alot of widgets one of which is the back light timeout on/off. I use that to toggle the back light timer when I am reading on the table.
Thanks. -dan
Hit the thanks button a few times. Glad your question was answered.

SMS Vibration vs. Voice Vibration

When i get a call, my phone vibrates according to the pattern i chose in settings.. (aka Heartbeat, Jinglebell, Basic call..) which is exactly what i want from a call vibration.
When i get a text message, my phone vibrates differently. It vibrates a short vibration then a long long vibration. Its so annoying and i was wondering if there was a way to fix the SMS vibration pattern?
+1 I'd like to know aswell

If you want it that bad, you can use Handcent sms which offers custom vibrations. I don't know of any way to do this in stock touchwiz.

vibrate metronome

Which smartwatch is best suited for writing an app that replaces one of these? It's essentially a wrist-mounted metronome that vibrates instead of ticks.
The smartwatch's SDK/API would have support such an app (i.e turn on/off vibrate programmatically) and its vibrate latency low (<20ms)
Apologies if this isn't the right forum -- pointer(s) to correct forum appreciated.

How to put moto g2 Lollipop into silent mode

press the volume key down until you feel vibration, then below the volume bar u can see options like "ALL" "Priority" "None". Select None and indefinitely, now your phone doesn't ring or vibrate.
Ok, but you still miss alarms and notification led.
Or if you have Xposed, you can use true silent mode module. If you don't, well, I'm sorry, not much out there.
One more meaningless thread...
Thread Reported
Kindly read FAQ Guys or search the forum stop creating useless threads
Personally found this information very useful. Can't understand why this is a 'useless thread'!
Because Most tech sites have already reported this issue and i think even xda has made mention about and this being a common issue for lollipop has been addressed many times in many threads and people should search for answers before asking a question so only i think it is useless
