Hey, I was wondering if anyone knew a way to be able to adjust my phones brightness from the lock screen. I have a password lock, but when I take my phone outside on a bright day and fail to change the brightness beforehand, it is impossible to see the screen to unlock it. I would like either a button that toggles the screen to full brightness, or a slider available on the lock screen. I don't really want the auto brightness option turned on due to the fact it seems to drain the battery faster. If anyone can help, let me know. Thanks

Does anyone know how to fix the dim problem when Auto Lock on? I change the registry Auto Lock from 0 to 1, after that, my back light is not adjust able, it is off all the time.
I had the same probelem. I just ajusted the backlight option Turn off backlight if device is not used for to off.
Start>Setting>Power>Advanced tab and than uncheck that option.
Now the screen will not dim and so it will not stay dim after unlock. I know it's not the best solution but it works
Not a ROM Development issue.

Thanks

Hi there,
Apologies if this has been asked before but I tried a search and didnt find what I was after.
Basically, I tried S2U2 and love the slider lock (much better than the default lock on winmo) but I dont like the rest of the screen.
What I want is an app that only has the slider part of S2U2 - so when I lock it the bottom part appears with the slider, and the rest of the screen is whatever was on screen at the time I locked it.
Is this possible?
Thanks,
try the question forum
-Never mind. Misread the question.-
No, it's not possible with S2U2.
Try this
May be this could solve your problem.

Hello. Since I don't have privilege to post under the proper thread, I'm asking my question here and hoping it gets answered or if possible, merged into that thread by our respected moderators.
I've recently started using LMT launcher. I find it convenient except for one little thing: when longpressed on any of the 1st level pie icon, the icons of the 2nd level show up. However, if I move my finger through these 2nd level icons, that is, instantly when my finger leaves the current icon I'm pressing, the pie changes back to 1st level!
I find this behavior hard to understand.
For one, as the 2nd level icons are less used, I may not remember their precise location, I want to remain on the 2nd level to roam through those icons and find the one I want;
for two, it is possible that the icon I pressed is the one I want, however, it is covered by my finger, I need to move my fingers away, to see and confirm it.
Expected behavior:
When the 2nd level icons are triggered, I can move through icons without going back to the 1st level.
If I need the 1st level icons back, I need to my my finger all the way back to the hollow point of the pie.
Thanks!
I found that my request made into the RC7 update of LMT, thanks for anyone who dropped by or happened to have reported/suggested the same. :good:
LMT Launcher and Landscape mode
Hey Guys,
I'm using LMT for quite a while now. As everybody knows you can place the trigger for LMT on the Right/Left and on the Bottom. I only use it on the Bottom but the problem comes when i turn into landscape. It's still at the bottom of the screen and thats not really comfortable. Is it possible to place die trigger on the right/left in landscape and leaving it on the Bottom in portrait without enabling all triggerspots?
I spend hours searching for the option but i cant find a thing.
im using a nexus 5 with omnirom
hope someone can help me with this.

Hi,
I would like to make my phone's screen light up periodically when it's locked and I receive notifications.
My phone does not have a pulse notification LED and it does not have any other means of showing persistent alerts for notifications when the screen is locked.
I have sen many apps that replace the default lock screen and generally require a lot of permissions, change the lock screen design, wallpaper, unlocking method and mess up / complicate things unnecessarily in general.
What I had in mind is a very simple concept but I don't know if it exists or if it is possible, because it may consume too much battery or maybe Android just does not allow it.
I would like my regular lock screen (which already shows that I have notifications, by the way) to light up for ~1 second every ~1 minute when I have notifications. Ideally that would be customizable somewhere.
To save battery, if the front camera detects no light (i.e: the phone is in the pocket or turned down) then it would not light up the screen, assuming the camera does not consume more battery than this would.
Could someone help me find the closest thing to something like that?
Thanks.
