i dont get your question
you want to enable autobrightness? or disable?
or enabled and still not working? or disabled but still working?

Yeah when it is disabled its still working sometimes, thats the problem, apparently im not the only one who have this problem...

See brotucks rom and jvr, fixed

Put the file inside this zip to /system/lib/hw (you need root and "root explorer" application).

(Re)Installing Stock Apps - can it be done?

Hey guys,
Just installed Paragon 5.1 on my phone, and had a question...how do I reinstall stock apps? I really liked Samsung IM that shipped on the Rogers ROM, for instance - however when I try to run it after having "reinstalled" it (moved the apk to /system/app) it just says that the Seven service is unavailable. Is there an easy way to reinstall these apps on a custom ROM? Or am I outta luck?
PS. I tried searching the forums first, but searching causes an FC on my phone for some reason.
Thanks!

Actually, you seem to be in luck. In the themes & apps thread, Trusselo posted the deodexed versions of those .apk's. You should be able to drop the seven.apk in your ROM and have it work again. Here's the link to the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=960269

[Q][Solved]Why are alot of apps not showing in the market?[Solved]

Hello,
Ever since I updated to CM7. I've run into the problem that certain apps aren't visible in the market on my phone. they are present on the online market but I'm unable to install them.
Does anyone else have the same problem ? and has anyone found a solution?
(Personally I'm running Wgspoelstra's v2.9 (based on nightly .29))
Problem is solved!
solution is posted on page 2 by NL_B!
I can't find Vendetta online in the market either, and i'm running stock (rooted)
hmm I had no such problems on stock just on 2.3.4 CM7
That's because the app isn't compatible with your device (in theory).
But most of the time, that's not true. Just search the apk using other ways and install it with your favourite file manager.
Vendetta is only for tabs btw

Then, maybe it's a region problem.
I can't help.
Well i cant find the apk on the internet so i cant push it to my phone to try
Can you find it in the market? Its called tweakers.net

I'm using the Spanish May version of the stock rom, rooted and installed yesterday.
I can find the app in Market.
Check your "Market" parameters
Maybe you have enabled "content filtering" by mistake as I did once causing a lot of apps not to be displayed...

What you need to do is install google apps one more time. http://goo-inside.me/google-apps/. Use the 20110307 Universal, download it and install it from recovery like how you install the CM7.
I'm familiar with this problem. WG forget to include some components from the google apps.

Thanks,
I gave it a try, at first I thought It hadnt worked so i rebooted the phone and read the site and it said it would work after the 2nd or 3rd market 'start' and it actually did! awsome
Hi eniux, actually the best way to reset the market (in case it won't download, happened to me couple of times) is to clear the market data.
Go to settings, applications, click on market, clear data.
If you enter the market it will ask you to agree with terms, condition, etc. After this everything will work as it should.

[Q] FM Radio for Onecosmic's RC3

hi all..
the release notes mention using spirit FM from the market, but it doesnt seem to work for me.
the gingerbread stock FM radio app used to work fine..is thr a way to install that into this version of ICS..or any other suggestions for FM radio app..
FM is one of my quite frequently used apps as i travel a lot..if this works..RC3 would be the perfect rom for me!!
thanks.
quick update..I managed to find the FM radio apk from gingerbread, pushed it to system/app folder using root explorer..but it still doesn't show up in the installed apps list..
can someone guide me on the usage of system/apps folder..do i have to do nething more after copying the app apk to that folder?
appreciate someone's help on this.
Thanks.

you have to change permission using root explorer to:
Owner : Read & write
Group : Read
Others: Read
And in the spirit FM you have to change this:
setings --> Audio ---> method -> GalaxyS ALSA

thx again.
I used it without problems, but to be on the safe side I prefer to use it bye headset.
Hi
Thanks for the update.. Have been using spirit FM "at my own risk" ;-) no issues so far.

For GB based roms you need tools you can get from playmarket.

Help me - USB Tethering
Someone help me !!!
I am using Jusada Original ICS Final on Samsung Galaxy Ace. I need USB tethering.
Can someone suggest me a way to added the functionality in this rom ??
plz don't suggest me apps such as PDANET or Clockworkmod tether.
I have searched the entire forum bt couldn't find a permanent solution. Any help is highly appreciated.
simple solution is just move back to stock rom......there are no....other options available....i tried many roms...but none of them work...its better to have stock rom and update kernel for memory hack/battery extender...
Try the rom on the link on the previous page. USB tethering works. I'm sure it can make your breakfast too but I haven't found that option in the settings!

Thanks for the replies. but I am concern abt battery life too. I have tried many roms and wat I found out that the stock based roms lasts longer than other roms. I planning to switch to Stock rom lite 7.1 / Myth 2. Any body knows whether USB tethering works in these roms ??

Mate,
Try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538245 its stock rom Modded original os + Adrenaline and may great features. Everything works fine wifi tethering + wifi hotspot tethering + usb tethering. And if on some computer usb tethering wont work...you can always try to create a Dial up internet connection using your phone modem.
i'd hope that helps
Thanks

1) I don't think it's as simple as that. If it was easy all roms would have working usb tethering.
2) search for the script. They usually have their own threads. If you can find it and find a flashable zip file for the script then unzip it and see where the changes are, for example in init.d folder(/system/etc/init.d). Then you can delete those files from your phone and reboot. If you are unsure about this, tell me the script you mean and I will look it up for you. Make a backup first!
3. As the name suggests, stock lite is built to have as few system apps as possible. Make a backup first because some system apps you think are bloatware might actually be vital. If you mess up your phone by deleting important apps then just restore your last good backup in recovery.
So to remove system apps, use titanium backup or similar app manager to remove it, if you don't have titanium then delete them from /system/app folder on your phone. If you want to be safe then freeze the app first to see if it makes any difference to your phones operation. If the ROM is odexed you will need to delete it's corresponding odex file in the same folder.
If you want to add system apps then paste into this folder (deodex ROM only) and change permissions to (rw-r--r--).
To move system apps (I assume you mean to a user app?) depends on a few things. If you have a good app manager like titanium backup use that. If the app is on the play store then remove it from system and reinstall from the play store and it will be a user app. If not then move it from /system/app to /data/app (depending on your preferred method of getting around the limited internal space on the ace, like link2sd, cronmod, etc. your user apps could be somewhere else) and ensure the permissions stay the same. (rw-r--r--)
I hope this helps and I'm sure that if this answer to your questions can be improved or corrected, someone will do that!
Best of luck!

i read that it's a hardware problem , try using this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.fastergps&hl=fr
AngryGPS
Try using AngryGPS.
There are also manual hardware fixes that may work if you want to attempt them. AngryGPS works well though. RemICS-JB and Mackay both have it. Extract the apk, push into /system/app, set permissions rw-r-r, reboot.
