Screen even dimmer? - Samsung Infuse 4G

I wish my screen would go even dimmer. Night fishing last night and it was just to bright blinding me.
Post Infused by Infuse

The app ZDbox has a brightness adjuster in it's widget that I believe makes it more dim than the stock dimmer.

In case that happens, u can connect to computer, and delete the screen filter apk using adb commands.
Or u cud create an CWM flashable zip to do the same and keep it on ur sd card as backup in case u do that any time.

No they don't. They stay at the setting in the app. Paul put it out its quality
Edit: this should be in the Q&A section

Ok I installed that program
I tried it before but didn't played too much with it
Do I know if I NEED the service running 24/7 on order to work?

If your using the app, yes the service MUST run. If its built into the kernel\ROM like CM7, then you dont even need the app
You shouldn't be running a task killer anyway. Android manages its services by itself killing system apps on a regular basis can make apps that need to be running in the back ground start again wasting battery. Plus your phone will act strange after awhile. You shouldn't use them.
Again this belongs in Q&A

Moved to proper forum.
Too bad I didn't read this thread earlier, I figured this out on my own today, doing the same thing, I changed my brightness to 1 (the lowest it would stay lit) , I do think this would definitely help out on battery life.

The Touch Key Lights app DOES NOT works properly with
1) Cyan 7 mod
I am using stock Android now, it works like a charm
One touch, and the program changes the value FOREVER (even after reboots, after I re-insert the battery...)

Yes you should share it! It looks great!
@OP:
Yes sir, you should. And I would be one of the first to "steal" those toggles
Okay. I will post it up when i get onto my computer. It will be flash ready in red cwm.
Still, any idea on how to have the "Silent" change into "Vibrate" when it's in active. Or vice versa.

Thank you.
And to answer your question, if u have "vibrate" option turned on, it will toggle between sound and vibrate. If u have the option turned off, it will toggle between sound and silent.
I hope this is what u are looking for.
this looks great i cant wait for the zip so i can flash this over.
Posted up the zip.
save onto SD and flash, that's it.
but like i said i did the changes on Infused ROM. i dont know if it will change people's icons in general, if coming from another theme or ROM. or does this just "update" over it?

I was wondering if the actual words can change on the bottom of the toggle that says "Silent".
E.g. If you have settings to change from Vibrate to Sound then can it say "Vibrate" on the bottom? or vice versa if your settings are to change between Silent to Sound, to have it say "Silent"
Edit: ill try to look into it. i havent tried yet, but would be great if someone could point to the direction to look >.<
~~~ more toggle icons ~~~
Here are some more icons that u could use for more toggles. I posted the theme in infused 1.5.x rom thread.
These toggles go well on a dark background.
Very cool.
Thanks...
Thank you. I'm still new to all this. It's my first android phone. Been on a windows phone for a long time.

Save it on sd card. and then flash it via cwm. (I've been flashing through cwm red, dont know if that makes a difference)
All of the changes were done on Infused ROM. so i dont know if that will change any other icons, if people are coming from another theme or ROM
i dont take credit in making the icons. i simply grabbed from different themes all over xda and put it into mine.
Also how do you change the "Silent" into "Vibrate" or have it change to however your sound settings are.

Power Save app and Timer & Clock widgets

There is a link to download: http://www.xperiablog.net/
just extract the rar and install each apk.
thanzzzzz for share
Power save app from Xperia Ray is easiest way to turn on/of power save mode.
The timer would be a good app if it alerted you at the end of the countdown
Uninstalled! Clock...Uninstalled! Gonna try the powersave app tonite and see how that works out.
i can't get into the link...can somebody post a direct link to the file please..
nvm..i got it already from here
http://www.mediafire.com/?x29q2ex4ism338q
Well I gave the powersave app a go last nite and its really nothing different than what ive been doing, but it does it all in one shot so im keeping it.
It turns off background data/wifi/animations/gps/bluetooth as well as turns brightness down to 0. I would normally do all that stuff manually (except for animations, which ive always left on) and my battery life is excellent! 2 days on a single charge easy, 3 days once.

there is a function for automaticaly switching power save mode and it is very usefull when the battery life is about 20%

How so? I tried it two ways, once with the screen not locked....all it did was flash the start/stop button green, didn't make any audible sound.
Once with the screen locked, it didn't even turn the screen on, make a sound, nothing.

Sorry, can't help you there. There are some apps on the Market that take screen shots but I can't recommend any since I never have problems with the built in one.

Try shootme. Its not in the market any more, but i've found the apk before here on xda.

I don't think the previous responders get your question. Some roms do support custom boot animations, there are a few threads on the site that explain how to do this. Feel free to look some up.
I think he wants a button in the shut down menu that will take a screenshot of whatever is under the menu. Haha not sure ...

Similar to what is available in CM7? Don't know how that is integrated, but it would require a decent amount of smali work to get it accomplished.

i know its late bute Drocap2 (probably have to get the apk from a search as it was pulled from the market) will let you have a notification bar trigger, map screenshotting to the search button, and has a shake trigger if that helps

Honestly, it's a timing issue... I used to have a hard time getting shots by holding Back and then hitting Home, but I've gotten MUCH better at it. It's all in the timing of how you do it, the best way i can explain it is to press back and kind of say "one one-thousand" to yourself then tap Home without moving your finger off of Back. You'll here the camera shutter sound and it'll be saved to your SD card in a folder for screen shots.
This is the only way I take my shots and it works fine, provided you've got the timing down (also, I've only used Froyo ROMs).

There are still some things you'll never get a screenshot with. Why not just use one of the screen capture apps like DroCap or Shootme? There are likely hundreds more that do the same thing as well.

smart stay

OK guys I am on ICS 4.2F-6B on my skyrocket, the smart stay app will not open and says the beta testing is over...any ideas how I can get this to work? Also the screen keeps flashing no front camera detected, however the front camera works when I go into the camera. Why would this be flashing on the screen?
Sorry to be such a newbie, but I guess we all have to start somewhere!
Try this one: http://www.mediafire.com/?5wokm0nh8ym9vza
Seems the guy who made smart stay has it rigged to turn off on certain dates as a beta.
He has the lite and pro versions of it on the play store now

i just got it, but for some reason, i dont think its working. It could be user error too! I followed the directions, but the screen wont turn on or off when i put my eyes in front of it or move them away. isnt it supposed to turn on when it detects your eyes and off when it doesnt?

No this one is just for when your screen timeout time runs out, if it see's two eyes looking at it then it will keep the screen on.

haha, told you it was user error! Ok, that works!! Do you know if we will get one that operates like the g3?
Any idea on how to make it stop talking? It randomly tells me I'm adjusting setting or going back to the home screen. I believe it is this app doing it because the phones never done it before.
the app hasn't talked to me at all! It must be another app that is talking to you. that's weird though!

Did you get a different version of the app with a hidden talking feature? 'Cause then, I want a refund.
Most likely it's your voice app or Talkback from your Settings >> Accessibility.
This application is over. The lite version is free to test over the market. But it doesn't work with low light. The best application for me is Sceeble and it's also free on Play Store. It works with the sensor.

is "SCEEBLE" that you suggested spelled right, because i can't find it on the Play Store.
It's SCREEBL without E at the end of the word. Download from the market it works perfectly and it's free.
