Hi,
Does anyone know a way to get Tasker to dim the screen but not turn it off? When I use in the car, I prefer to have the screen on all the time - but even on 0 brightness it can be too bright at times. Is there a way I can set the backlight to dim/timeout but not turn the screen off?
You can use the third party app "screen filter" (free in play store) and configure it via tasker. It enables an screen overlay.

Okay so I discovered that Auto brightness in CM7 is messed up so instead I am using manual brightness setting. So far so good, but when I use Google navigation, after a while the screen dims to lowest brightness and wont go back to my brightness till the navigation app speaks next instruction and then it dims again after a timeout.
Anyway to turn this annoying behaviour off?
Does changing the screen timeout setting help?
The one under Settings > Display > Screen Timeout is the setting I'm reffering to.
No, that only affects the screen turning off. It remains on, just dims to lowest brightness
Give this app a whirl. You can select an app and while in the app you selected (navigation/maps/whatever) the screen will never turn off. I don't think it will dim either.
You have to use navigation thru car home to prevent that.

Hello,
I want to disable my lockscreen (pincode) at home and enable it when I leave my home.
I tried Tasker and the plug in secure settings.
Due nfc different tasks will be activated. This works very well. At home the lockscreen is disabled (deactivate keyguard) , but after a few minutes it seems that key guard is reactivated and i have to enter my pin code.
I am using stock is 4.0.4 (rooted) on my sgs3.
How can I fix this? I hope you understand my English ^^

i was wondering if anyone knew of a way to disable the screen on whenever you receive a notification?
I just want the sound and the LED to blink, not for my screen to turn on/off.

Where is the setting to turn the screen on for notifications? My screen does not light up for any notifications.

You can't on stock but download textra and you can achieve this...

Hi
I've got a couple of basic questions about this watch that I can't find the answer to online.
1. With the always-on screen, I've seen that the display is dimmer than the full on screen (as well as simpified design/colours etc). Can it be seen outdoors in direct sunlight? Does the brightness automatically increase, or does the screen need to be woken up to see in sunlight? If so, how do you do this? Flick your wrist?
2. When a notification comes in, what happens? Does it slide over the watchface and fill the screen? If so, and you don't swipe it away, how long does it stay there for?
Many thanks
Anyone....?

Always-on screen is fine in the sun, although it depends on the watch face you're using. Some custom watch faces are barely readable in pitch dark, let alone in the sun ☺
I don't think that the auto brightness works in "always - on" mode, it only works when the watch screen is fully on.
Waking up the device is dead easy, every time you look at it, on turning your wrist it switches on immediately. It's sensors are very precise so the whole operation is really smooth.
When a notification comes in you just feel a small vibration, the screen stays off until you look at it. As soon as you turn it on, you will see a small yellow indicator, that means you can slide left and see the notifications received.
If you happen to be using the watch while the notification comes in, you get a small heads up notification on top of the screen, that disappears after a few seconds. Clicking on it will open the notification.
