I'm guessing that many of you guys already know this, but as this is not posted anywhere else in our forum, I'd like to post here, since I found this just randomly.
Touch your status/notification bar for a second (do not pull down) and then slide left/right to decrease/increase your screen Brightness.
Cool Right !!
NOTE : Auto Brightness should be turned off for this to work.
While posting this thread I saw few threads on other Phones' forums about this tip, and from the responses, I see many guys were not aware of this. So I think this thread will make some sense.
It’s working...... really cool man....
Yup its a known trick, it even works when using the stock ROMs.

Ah.. Glad to hear that... now i can get rid of one huge widget..
Is anybody read the instruction to SGR? It's in there ))))
As far as I am aware, this is only present on Samsung phones. I tried with my friend's DHD, his Arc S and his Galaxy Note. Only worked on his Note.

And I saw few threads for some HTC fones also having this option..

I second that it doesn't work on Ace though it was a while back that I had checked it, so a new update might have added this feature for them too.
Will check & update you guys here.

It's already in the FAQs buddy.
Galaxy SL has the brightness control feature. That runs TouchWiz 3.0, as far as I know.

It doesnt work for me on stock ROM. I have however removed a lot of stuff with titanium backup, which might be the reason for this.
Any suggestions as to why it doesn't work for me?

One hard and long way would be to restore those one by one and see what brings back the feature.

Yeah, I guess so.
At the moment, I'm waiting a few weeks before switching to one of the custom ROMs which are currently being developed and tested. I think I'll live without this brightness feature until then Although it sounds really nice.
Very Nice. Thanks for the Tip.

Thank you! Very useful, I've seen the slide in my honeycomb GT and I miss this option on the R.

Get rooted then, simples. As gavriel, said, why would you not, and now with the one click method there's no reason not to. I can see how it seems a bit daunting, but once you've done it you'll wonder why you hadn't before.

+1! I've lost count at just how many times in the first few weeks I had to reflash mine as I was new to Android and just kept screwing stuff up, and I learned to root the old way which is a tad more complex than the one click method, but figured it out in no time.
ADB also baffled me at first but again, I soon picked it up, you just need to do some reading of the forums and make the mistakes yourself. I've seen the Xperia referred to as "unbrickable", although I couldn't tell you just how true that is
ok.. so here's my non-rooted phone pics..

For someone who claims to have ported CM7, I'm sure this should be an easy feat for you, Why do you need a video

I did the same thing using Camtasia. Then I realized the guide is useless because people want to see the phone's reaction and what happens. They already know what Odin's job is :\
Hmm...I see..Then, I don;t think i will be risking of re-flashin my FW..I can show you the odin part of it!
You can do one thing..Tell us where you are stuck and we can help you out?

When using Voice, it will not search, you need to hit "Try again" for it to work.
A bit laggy
I believe the bugs appears because it's not made for ICS. But maybe there are just some settings that need to be played with to get this to work, who knows!
Lets gather all Google Now discussions here in the future! And hope we can get this awesome app to work on our Galaxy R

I have been looking for a good rom for Galaxy Mini S2, but I don't find anything. I know it is not a great mobile, but when I bought it, first-hand, new, without install anything else but whatsapp..... My mobile goes horrible. I tried a hard reset, and I got the same. So, I think the solution is a rom. But which one?
I'm thinking in CM10 but I don't find my mobile between supported devices... What do you suggest me?
Thank you!!!

Really??? I don`t understand why. I just wanna know which rom is "supported" for my mobile. I see CM doesn`t. But another one?
I can't also find in this forum a rom list which I can read to choose the best for me.
Thanks.
first.. the solution to your problem is NOT THE ROM! its not a thing to play wid... remember there is a risk that u might end up with an unusable phone is the flashing fails... Try a clean data/cache/dalvik cache via cwm and then give it a try... if u are still under warranty then dont hesitate in going to authorised service centre... i would also suggest u to FREEZE all unwanted apps... ONLY APPS! not SYSTEM SERVICES!
