Trust me this works, I just found this out right now and had to tell you guys. All you do is lower the brightness in the settings. You'll notice right away that as you keep lowering the brightness the framerate starts increasing. Just jitter your hand while you lower brightness.
I also strongly suggest you lower the contrast(to 1 or 2) in the camera settings to brighten up shadows.
Great. The brightness itself doesn't seem to suffer as it compensates the brightness somehow and the fps is nicceee
D: Brilliant! Well, at least that lessens my dissapointment in my TP xD
This really works. Thank you man.
I just tested it out by recording 2 videos. One at normal brightness, and one with 0 brightness.
The zero brigthness is CLEARLY more fluid. HTC you suck for not giving us good frame rates out of the box. Also lowering the brightness level doesn't seem to actually make the video much darker.
What!!? I can't believe this works!! It's awesome!
Now we just need a program to change the backlight up and down when the camera app is open/closed!
What is the framerate if you dont do this?
I made those adjustments and it makes the shadows appear VERY grainy.
Are you talking about fps in preview mode or does it actually change the fps when recording video?
Thanks.
Cool, I'll try it as soon as I get home.
do you mean i have to put brightnes to 9 o to the lower possible value (-1.5)?
TNX
is there a chance to do that in the xperia x1?
My recordings are still 18fps after doing this, but the video is much smoother when recording in low light areas (which is pretty much anywhere in-doors).
I searched and read the manual but this is unclear.
I understand that on the right hand side of the earpiece there are front cam and notification LED embeded but what is the smaller round thing on the left side of it?
Thanks.
That is the light sensor. It does a couple of things. It adjusts the screen brightness depending on light level wherever you may be, and it will also deactivate your screen while you are in a call by sensing your face is near the receiver.
It must be a light sensor. Used to help with setting the automatic brightness. Might also be used to determine whether the ringtone mode should be set to "Pocket Mode" possibly, but that's just speculation. But it's a light sensor.
Thanks guys... I thought proximity sensor on the black area = light sensor
thats some alien thingy. it fires up laser if you stare at the device too long.
Hey I wanted to make an init.d script for disabling the backlight dimmer and setting vibration intensity to stock 63% on franco kernel. But I can´t find the vibrator tunable.
For the backlight dimmer it´s "/sys/module/lm3630_bl/parameters/backlight_dimmer"
Would be nice if anyone could tell me :laugh:
GOT IT! It´s at "/sys/class/timed_output/vibrator/amp"
Is it possible to adjust camera led flash brightness, like on HTC Desire?
I have a rooted phone and I really like the Night Light feature, but I think it's lacking at times. When you compare it to f.lux it isn't very strong at all... Is there any way to increase the night light intensity in settings beyond the default limit when you have root? I know how to make brightness reaaally low but not night light.
Android Pie by the way
