Hello Everyone! I'm reaching out to you guys to find out how I can somehow stop ambient mode from slightly shifting my display. I fully understand that this is burn in protection and understand the risks if I find a way to disable it. I found some mentions in editing the build.prop and turning it off in there but I pulled the build.prop and see no setting in my Huawei Watches file to edit it there. Can anyone let me know what I can do to find and disable this? I am fully capable of debugging over bluetooth so i dont need a full tutorial just where to find the file or setting and edit and save it. Thanks!!! :highfive:

I'm sure you could use root explorer to edit the values
The question remains whats the location of that??? way too many folders and subfolders to look thru
thats why i disable the auto and set it for manual
Maybe some else will know the location
I think this is a problem specific to the HD2 - basically, when i leave the phone on the auto backlight setting, it is too bright and therefore draining the battery. of course, setting it manually is a pain and it needs changing as conditions change etc.
What i am wonder is if there is any way of changing the auto so that it is consistently less bright? I have had a dig through the regedit but not really sure what i am looking for or doing!
I was guessing that there was a value that would be assigned to the brightness above the ambient brightness (from the light sensor) - can anyone enlighten me further?
Many thanks (and also for all those other posts i have used to help me make my phone exactly as i like it... CHT, BsB, Scilor etc!)
try Lumos.
nice. almost does too much! but good bit of software thus far. now to do some benchmarking... if only the sun would shine!
Controlling Backlight Settings
I took a different approach to resolve my problem -- keeping auto backlight turned off, but easily changing the backlight settings when I needed to change them. I created a shortcut called Backlight.lnk (that's a lowercase "L", not an "I" I discovered). I used a text editor and put in this line:
12#Powerexe.exe 2 - backlight tab
I saved it with the name Backlight.lnk and copied it to my Start/Programs folder using File Explorer. I moved the shortcut to the top of the Start menu where I can get to it quickly. I just tap Start and the shortcut icon and I am at the Backlight screen where I can quickly change the backlight level or the timeout settings. This saves a few taps compared with going in through the Settings screen.
I had tried Lumos and another program I found on the MS Marketplace, but both caused other problems for me.
PS: I found the line above in a posting at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645916
It's an excellent tutorial on creating all kinds of shortcuts.
Try MVBKLight.
Very handy popup (plus a usefull torch).
I have both Auto and Manual controls. With links I immediately switch between sensor and the MVBKLight slider.
Try searching for autobacklight toggle. Basically, its an icon which when pressed on main screen enables disables autobacklight. So much better than lumos.
Hi,
I'm currently on a CM Build and the CM-Feature for changing light sensor levels is not working.
I know that this will make led notifications not work anymore.
But I would like to test how much this can improve my battery life.
Please don't tell me "turn auto backlight off to save battery" or "this will disable led notifications"... I'm aware of the pro's and con's and it is just a test for me...
So could someone please tell me which files I need to replace and where can I find them?
Thx in advance!
I'm also using the working lights lib...
LED notifications isn't that important for me.
The name of the file is different from rom to rom, so ensure you name it correctly and replace it in system/lib/hw.
Also don't forget to set the right permissons.

Thx. I tried this file. Renamed it, moved it with RootExplorer. Set Permission to rw-r--r--. Rebooted. edited light sensor levels with cyanogenmod-settings. taped save and apply. but it does not work. when i press reload current they are back to default values. alo tried reeboot after save and apply. But with the same result.
Is there anything I did wrong??
Did youu checked your pm? =)
Hi Devs
I need some help to set my own auto brightness values. Attached is the framework can someone please help me find the code for auto brightness.
The frame work I am using can be found at the below link:

Regards,
lol so many views and no reply
no one know what should I do??? :s
I am also interested in this field.
I would start with a simple cronjob that reads brightness.
Do you know, where to read it?
background:
For the Motorola's there is some magic setting, boosting the backlight.
Would like to set it, if brightness is over a certain threshold and set back if it is below another level. Sounds easy ...
Hello,
I've been enjoying my new S4 (I have the Korean version-- very fast).
I have a question, hopefully one of you know the answer. Whenever I take a screenshot, it then loads up the editing software. I don't want that to happen, it wastes time. I searched and searched for the ability to turn that off, but I can't find it! I'm sure it must exist.
So, if you know how to turn off the auto-edit of screenshots, please help me out.
Much appreciated!
I found the answer. I will post it here for future reference.
