Does anyone know if there is a flashable zip somewhere to fix samsungs crappy autobrightness? The transitions from light to darker rooms is horrible. Thanks.
I just installed lux and it works well.

Yup, LUX is definitely the way to go.
I dont want to hi jack this thread or anything but is it worth paying for the full version or is the free version good enough?

What issue. You can turn autobrightness off and then deselect the adjust screen tone under dispaly settings as well.

I have the paid version also. When I see an app I like, I always buy it to support the developers.
Even if I don't end up using it at that time, I figure it may come in handy in the future and I don't mind throwing a few bucks to the developers.
Using the Imo 12-2 lean kernel here. It lists auto brightness fix in its features (or was that Synergy ROM...). I haven't been nearly upset with the brightness since I flashed the kernel. Could be a placebo, however...
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Install the free version to see if you like it. Then uninstall and buy the paid version. IMO - the extra features with the paid don't add anything for our device, but I bought it to support the dev.
Yes I recommend Lux too
There's a modified framework for the international version.I tried to port it to our phone but the scripting and methods they used to apply the mod were a bit over my head.
I will try to reach out to the original mod author to see if he is willing to assist but no promises.

That would be much appreciated. I have the paid Lux app and still not the "fix all" we are looking for.

Running synergy R73 with trinity kernel (vs 7). Can I only enable fast charge using their dedicated toolbox app? Nstools has this option (apparently), but does not appear in the tweak section as it appears in the play store on my device.
Setcpu doesn't seam to have the option either. There are several galaxy nexus toggle fast charge apps, will these possibly work?
I'll buy trinity toolbox if it's the only way, but I am always changing my system and don't want a paid app that I may never use again.
Thanks guys

And then.......
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
As long as it's enabled in the kernel you can simply toggle it using terminal emulator or similar, typing su to get root privilege then typing ffc. With that being said I recommend you just buy the toolbox, morfic will be adding more features to it as he improves the kernel and its also a great way to show your support for the hard work he's done on the kernel.
Already bought it, all about the support, just hate having paid apps that may go dormant down the road! I hope I can continue the trinity experience when the synergy jb becomes more stable.
Do I still need to enter the terminal command if using the dedicated toolbox, or is that only for other programs that have a fc toggle? I cannot tell if it's working or not.

Gotcha and no you don't need to use the toggle and command just one or the other they both do the same thing.
Just got a response from morfic direct in development forum. Feature is experimental and untested. There is no verification at this time if it indeed does work, but thanks for clarifying how to correctly enable it.

Imo kernel has fast charge too. Turn on via terminal emulator. Works well
Sent from a SYNERGIZED GalaxySIII
Is the terminal code the same for all kernels or does it vary? My terminal experience is limited to "read and follow what the dev has written". Su ffc, is this correct (assuming force fast charge).?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Yes the command is the same on both kernels, type su then ffc.
Now does that have to be done each time you want to use the feature? How do you use an app like nstools that has a toggle? Whole thing seems simple, but it's just not laid out in b&w.
There are also toggle widgets in the play store for the nexus. This to me seams convenient, can we possibly use these.
Sorry for the bombardment of questions, I'm just truly missing something here.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Also, as I understand it fast charging also disables the ability to use data, so how would you then disable fast charge through terminal?
---------- Post added at 09:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:59 PM ----------
Also is there any way to tell if your kernel supports fast charge, or is it just a matter of whether or not it is listed by the dev?
Well you can toggle it on and leave it on but anytime you need to access the internal memory you would have to turn it off. And ya I didn't think about that but a widget would work awesomely for that or better yet a toggle in the notification pulldown
And ya basically if the dev lists it as a feature that's the easiest way to tell but simply trying to run the command in terminal will tell you right away, if there's support it will say fast charge on/off if not it will throwback errors

Nope you can just close it after running the command.

Very curious if the galaxy nexus fast charge toggles (they have widgets) in the play store would work on our devices.
Do I risk any problems in trying one out? I would think no, but again just don't know enough on the subject
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
I don't think it will hurt anything it probably uses the same command to enable and disable, if anything it probably just won't even work.
What command do you use to turn off fast charge?
ffc will both enable and disable

"You should be getting an OTA update soon — if you’re lucky — that will bring your Galaxy S3 to Android 4.1.2. The VRBMB1 build is about 150MB in file size, and for those who are wondering, here’s the full change log:
Keyboard Predictive Text has been improved
Users can take picture while on a call
Manual refresh button has been added to lock screen ticker
E-mail syncing has been improved
Enhanced Bluetooth performance
VZ Navigator and Amazon added to stub applications"
-Android Authority
Seems that is all that was added for now. I was hoping that premium suite would be rolled out sooner. Oh well, the joy of being rooted, and being able to install things like pop up browser anyway.

I have a buddy that uses this option all the time now that he has it. He makes vinyl signs and oftentimes while out working, speaking to a customer on the phone, it's helpful to be able to take a picture without having to hang up. Sure, not everyone will utilize this feature, but like a dozen other features on your phone, it's great to have them regardless of whether you'll actually use them or not. :thumbup:

Once you have Pandown running, start up Pandora, then refresh the list once it starts playing
You can preview songs before downloading them, since its not yet possible to get track info outside of Pandora.

Tethering via wifi
Is this possible on the rom? I tried it just laughed at me and called me fat (well it did not work but hey) Making sure i did not miss something.
Did you try using Barnacle or the Wifi tethering for root users apps previously suggested for people with problematic tethering?
Fixing the built-in wifi tethering is a goal, but one that probably needs wifi itself to properly work first. Or at least, to work without needing to be activated through another script...

Screen brightness
The screen brightness seems to be rather low even when on 100%. Not sure if i just think it is or what.
I flashed an unofficial version of the Mahdi rom. It worked mostly OK but I lost root access for all root apps. It was still rooted because I then flashed an unofficial version of Cyanogen Mod. Again I lost root access for all root apps. I am on my third flash of Cm, all with the same problem. Apparently many people have had the same problem but I have yet to read of any real solution.
