Disable auto dim...

I've got the screen on while charging option ticked...so I was expecting it to stay on in full brightness the whole time and not dim the screen at all. Is there an option to disable the dim?

menu /sound & display /brightness, check mark there for automatic is all I know of as how to set default or use the power widget.

}

There's also a Power Manager app you can download that lets you setup different profiles. So you could set it to max brightness while charging, then have it dim while its on battery and go even lower if your battery is below 20%. Of course you have to disable the Auto Dim in order for this app to work.

I use the Setting Profiles app for this

Brightness Setting in build.prop?

Has anyone tried adjusting the default brightness settings for min max in the build.prop file?

I guess that's a no...lol

Did you edit the minimum value? I was wanting to turn it down to 2. But I wanted to see if anyone else had first. @airmaxx23

I have not, but now that we have recovery and we're able to make backups I'll mess with it today. Let me know if you try it first.

I rolled the dice and turned minimum down to 1. No boot loop, but not entirely sure the brightness is really different. I'm gonna have to change it back and test it.

WiFi keeps scanning and stays on during sleep dispite settings

I want to keep my WiFi of during sleep to save battery and I can't seem to make it turn off automatically like it's suppose to. I have set it out never be on during sleep and to not allow scanning while WiFi is off but it still seems to scan. I've also tried to disable WiFi calling(t-mobile). I know I can use 3rd party apps but I was hoping to use the existing options. Any idea as to what keeps waking it up?

Press on the battery chart showing in picture no. 2 and see which app is using your battery most. It may be one of your apps triggering the WiFi.

[SOLVED] How can I exempt apps from priority mode?

New to 5.x from 4.4. Is there a way to exempt hangouts from priority mode either entirely or just make it so my watch still has notifications while priority mode is on?
Root or no root.
Thanks
