I've answered you on the EX kernel thread..
It gives an extra 8- 10 %
Just root your phone ...
HBM is not the only reason to root

Very little difference

All our assessments are quite subjective; In my experience it is even less than 8%, I would say 0-5%...

Definitely 5% but for sure not 40...

At one time there was a hbm APK. I have it somewhere

Wasn't there an option before in ElementalX to turn it on and not download an additional app or is it me just going crazy?

Disable auto-dim under 5% battery?

Is there a way disable the auto dim when the battery level is under 5 percent battery? I get the concept but it renders the phone useless in the sunlight.
found any workaround yet?

I absolutely loathe this. The only work around I've found is an app called adjbrightness. It'll force the screen brightness to whatever you want. But as far as disabling the system setting, I haven't had any luck yet either.

Most likely, but many of us are still on tw as much as it sucks. While CM is good, it's not worth it for me until the IR and GPS are fixed.

Vibration intensity

This app will allow you to change the intensity of the vibration your device gives you, some kernels/mods do this specific feature, but with this app you can change it even on custom kernels or stock roms. You just need root.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dunnow.software.vibrationTuner
A while ago I wrote this app to enhance my personal UX on my N4, I've been told it works well with N5 too, since it might be usefull for some of you guys, I'm sharing it here.
ROOT IS REQUIRED. Please read the app description.
Thanks, that really helped
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Working anyone?
All intensities from 1 to 95 feel the same!
Yep working pretty well not to say perfectly.
In case it can help I have Nexus 5 stock rom rooted only.
Maybe depending on how much you changed from stock result could be different...

Maybe you're doing the same mistake as i did.
After you adjust the slider to a new value you need to push the "Set intensity" before you can use the Test button with the new value.
Took me 5 min to realise that.. :|
i need to root for this?
thank you mate
Ya it works amazing on mine and I'm on stock odex with root

Yep, sorry about that, last update changed UI and UX "set intensity" is no longer needed, just select the value and done.

Yep, root is mandatory since it edits system lvl files, since apps can't write on those files, root is mandatory to do so. Sorry if it's an inconvenience. u_u
Great app. I was looking for something like this.

Hey,
I need to make something similar for my HTC one (m8) runnig gpe, the vibration is insane.
Could you shed some light on how this app works?
I'm guessing it's a kernel module which changes the vibration intesity?

Actually it does not play with the kernel at all. Turns out that Nexus LG devices have a file with the intensity, so, basically, this app, overwrites that value on each boot to set the user prefered default and from there the system takes care to get that value and go on.
The file locations it's listed on the "FAQ" part of the app. Some people told me to add support to other devices, but they don't seem to have such file, or at least, not under the same file directory. You could search for it (if it's even there) and If it is (under another directory ofc) I could try to add compatibility to my app and solved.
It actually bothers me that people is rating the app poorly just because they can't read this is ment only for N4 and 5 (since are the only 2 that i know of using that method) ... u_u
Hi All,
work this with AOSP ROM? Where can I find the apk file? I have now no internet connection on my phone, so I could not download it from Store directly.
Thanks in advance!
I use Trickster Mod for controlling the vibration because it also does many, many other things.

What I miss from my Samsung S6 Edge+ and how can I fix these shortcomings

1. Screen brightness under sunlight: the S6 was a lot brighter thanks to a special setting enhancing colors, the Nexus is barely readable.
2. Camera software: S6 wins hands down here, on Nexus don't even have exposure compensation.
3. Headphones volume: Nexus is too low.
4. Notification sounds with headphones: the S6 was ringing from main speaker, the Nexus barely emits a sound in headphones, so you may miss notification when headphones are plugged in but non on your hear.

1. I use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.hbmwidget but you need to be rooted. Got root?
2. I find HDR+ to be okay with exposure but I'm not a big camera type of person.
3. Can't really comment.
4. See number 3
Not rooted yet, waiting for Android N
U should root your phone.. after that with the apk https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.hbmwidget and a custom Kernel u will have a bettern one than ur s6
PS: I don't get why u r waiting "n"
OK will root.
Just wanted to wait to upgrade to N to avoid upgrade problems
There's a tut for headphone volume.

Also there is a free app that gets used with elementalx kernel that works great for brightness and can be found here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/themes-apps/ultra-brightness-mode-elementalx-t3281649
As stated in previous post, you will need root for both.

I read that as only being a fix for rooted phones and I'm all aboyt the flashing stuff, so I can see how he could have thought so as well/ assumed it wouldn't be of any help in his case/ didn't bother to click the link.
That being said, I have no clue why someone would not root their 6p when it would solve 3/4 of the things they dislike about it. It's like a ten minute process max and is utterly devoid of risk or effort lol
I am rooted now.
I installed the widget.
When I run it says I am not rooted.
Read description and says it needs custom kernel.
I am lost now... Please explain

You do need a custom kernel and root. I know I use it. Plus it does say as much in the description.

I don't believe so but High Brightness Mode widget is one of the main reasons I have root and the only reason I run a custom kernel.
And the widget works as advertised.
I use ElementalX with Tasker to achieve high brightness mode. Don't need the widget.

So the widget makes the brightness what it should be in the sun, like other Samsung panels?

I dont have a comparison but i use HBM and its essential for me to see the screen in sunlight.
Also theres a nifty tasker tutorial somewhere on xda i used and it automatically triggers HBM when light reaches a certain point. Do a search if youre interested. If you cant find it let me know and Ill see if i can find it. More convenient than a widget and it doesnt add clutter.
Found it

What ROM do you recommend to me?

Hey, im looking to install a new ROM on my P8 Lite ALE-21. I currently have the stock one. I mainly want to use my phone for social media.
I recommend AOSPA or LOS 13.
Performance is great and batterylive isnt even bad.

You can deactivate 2 cores in the kernel audiator and batterylive wil much improve.

yes there was already news reported about the app on the pixel's and that it was actually slowing them down, so i would imagine any phone that has this installed would have the same results.

I don't have the option to turn digital wellbeing's usage data permission wtf
Edit: I have successfully uninstalled digital wellbeing through adb, hope it was worth the while. I didn't use it like at all but I enjoyed seeing it there
i'm amazed by the amount of positive feedback but can someone post a simpler guide. i really wish to try this out.
