[Q] Probably the dumbest question evar... - LG Thrill 4G

...but the HELL do you adjust brightness, unless I'm missing something lol. Under Display the option to adjust brightness is grayed out and there's no other option I see to adjust... unless I'm missing something and been awake for too long and losing brain cells here.

Is automatic brightness checked? If so, you'll need to uncheck it to manually override it.

Hard to describe it, but the option to select it is grayed out, maybe this picture can help?

Mine does the same thing. I had to add the power control widget and change it that way.

Lol wow, I didn't even bother to think of that!!
It did the trick, but still wish there was a way to get that option enabled. I wonder if it's like that because of the 3D stuff? I guess it helps with it or something.

Do you have frozen apps? If so it might be from that I had the same thing I unfreeze them then its good again. Or download brightness control widget the use that then go to your settings see if its showing again not grayed out

Don't see how, just turned it on not too long ago. Checked running apps and nothing seems out of the ordinary. Even rebooted and still did it.

Try installing brightness level from market use that then go to the settings and check see if anything has changed

That works great, but option is still grayed out, lol.
I can live with using a widget though, I just wanted my BL to be on Auto and the little widget thing allowed me to do it. Strange that some phone work and others don't.
Everyone is running Froyo 2.2.2 just to be sure right?

Yes but mine was grayed out also then I did that it became not grayedout

Anyone knows how to fix this? I'm in Norway, and we switched to summertime at 03am.
Phone internal clock changed automatically, but widget clock didn't.
Is there a trick?
Reboot didn't work.

Mine didn‘t change ether, it looks like that LG has forgotten something about daylight saving.
Il‘l guess that we soon will have a update from them.
Update: I have reported it to LG with screen dump so they can see the problem.

Yeah my clockwidget is doing the same thing. I'm in Sweden.
Huh, I just played around with androids time and date settings and now my widget is showing the correct time. Try it.
Yes indeed, if you change in Time and Date Settings the Time Zone back to GMT +1 (instead of GMT +2) than the time is OK.
(you also have to set the time right again - disable automatic setting first - you can enable this setting afterwards).
Can't get mine to display the correct time. Oh well, for now a different app. Hopefully it's fixed fast.

No way to fix it that I know of, other than uninstalling LCD density. I found it screwed up my lockscreen, too. This app doesn't actually increase resolution, so I find its usefulness very shallow.

Widget locker can fix your lock screen if interested

I can't say that I have that same problem, and I have my density set to 200. But I did find that other people had this problem and recommended downloading the "spare parts" app and unchecking "compatibility mode". I did that before I even downloaded LCD density so I can't say if that will fix it or not, but I never had that problem so it might.
What app did you use to change it, the free one from market? I did mine manually so maybe that's why its not working. But that did fix my apps that were not filling the screen, thanks

Yes, I used "LCDDensity for Root". It works perfectly!

[Q] Soft Keys don't go away

As the title says, when I'm on the lock screen, the home and back button are already visible. This is annoying, is there someone else with this problem? Maybe a solution? Everything is stock. The strange thing is, when I try to make a screen shot of it, they go away...
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app
That's totally normal. The softkey bar is always present, since the softkeys are essential for operating the device.
No I mean, when your on the lock screen, that bar is supposed to be all black. Well not anymore, the back and home button already appeared. They should appear when the device is unlocked.

I don't think it's supposed to be all black. It isn't on my phone, and it wasn't on any other phone I've seen.

You're correct! I apologize. I must've mixed things up. I checked again and indeed the bar is all black on my lockscreen as well.
Stock Android 4.1.2, but I found the cause of it. Unbelievable, it was the Sony smart key app. When I installed it the problem happend. And guess what, now u deleted the app, the bar is back black. Can someone else try this to see if it is just my phone or it is the app?

I was having the same irritating issue...and also found the Smart Key app to be the culprit. It occurred on .140 as well as AT&T's .120.
After deleting Smart Key, the problem has not returned.

Automatic brightness turn on

Have just got the Sp it is not rooted. I have read about the brightness not varying very much but wondered is there an app or can you use the power management function to set the brightness to go higher or lower at a set time.

I have since uninstalled this after flashing the .257 that is posted And the brightness issue is no longer an issue.... don't know why.
Yes I had it set up how you posted.
What I really wanted was something like alarm clock but for brightness so I could set time to have full brightness while at work then half brightness when at home and near no light for when I am in bed.
This might not be possible or available but if anybody knows then please let me know.

Cannot tap ok buttons

So I've got something weird going on with my nexus: a lot of times when there is an approve/disapprove option box (like the picture) I cannot tap the ok button. This happens all the time when enabling a accessibility option or when trying to grant a root privilege. Odd thing is if I connect an input device and do it that way it works no problem. Please help me fix this problem

turn show touches on in developer mode and see if it is a bad spot in your touchscreen unlikely but easy to check
Maybe you've got an app that puts an overlay over everything. Such as a screen dimmer, or screen colour changer. Android has built in security to prevent overlays being able to press buttons.
You can actually turn that off in SuperSU somewhere, but that won't work for accessibility.
Touches were there but yeah it turns out PIC was causing it. Thanks
