[Q] Make Render Effect reboot-proof? - LG Optimus 2x

Hello,
is there a way to make the setting stick? I like it and would like to keep the setting after a reboot. Settings -> Cyanogen -> User Interface
Is it a bug? Found some threads concerning that issue on Google, but no solution. (don't want to install droid calibrator when the setting is already implemented in CM)
thanks

[Q] How to disable the lockscreen

For someone with no security concerns, it is pretty safe to disable the lockscreen without any risk of but dialing.
From what I searched in the forums, this can be done in two ways:
1 - Phone -> *#*#7594#*#* -> Check shutdown, which works perfectly, easily reversible, no coding, but has the undesirable side effect of also disabling the extended power menu.
2 - Some tools like NoLock that you can easily find in the market, however you get another icon in the notification bar, and sometimes the lockscreen still shows up.
I was wondering if there is a way to disable the lockscreen without these weird sideeffects, either with a modified framework (like $omator's way to change the icons), or with a script.
Thank you in advance
I am using Simplicity's ROM, based on STOCK, so I don't have that option from CM7
This may very well sound silly, and maybe its because im using CM7.1 but there is a setting in location and security... no lockscreen
Is it there for you? or does that not work?
NoLock's widget doesn't have any notification space used or wasted, and it works 99% if the time for me... *shrugs*

ICS CM9 Haptic feedback

Hi Guys
So I tried the CM9 rom, and one thing that really annoys me is the haptic feedback when pressing the soft keys and when typing. Is there a way to reduce it(NOT turn it off) like in CM7 ?
For the soft keys,go to settings/sound and untick "vibrate on touch"
and for keyboard haptive feedback, go to settings/language and input,there you have settings for android keybord,click there and untick "vibrate on keypress". I tryed both,it works... Hope i helped
I Didnt want to turn it off .... just reduce as you can in CM7
I think that this option is still without adding
Try looking around in the "Dev Tools" app, it might be there, just like you can reduce the brightness on the touchbuttons!
To lower the vibrations for keyboard-touches you have to go to settings > language & input > Android keyboard settings > advanced settings > keypress vibration duration settings
I know that it says "duration", but a lower duration also lowers the intensity of the vibration.
Haven't found a possibility to lower vibration for the touchkeys... i guess there's an app for that.
I have been looking for the possibility to lower the vibration intensity for the touchkeys too, it's just too high for the moment and i'm even more annoyed using the phone with haptic feedback turned off :S
they have merged the feature in the latest nightlies, you'll find it under the advanced settings

I use a different rom on my Jiayu G4 phone, Android 4.2.1. Which file(s) can I manually edit in the filesystem to change ms duration number? I have root access.

[Q] [I9000B] BLN Control

Hello, good evening.
I've flashed the last stable version (10.1.3) on my Galaxy S B, but I have one problem with it...
The backlights (back button and menu button) are always getting on (only when have notifications). I know this is called BLN Control.
But, where can I disable it directly from Device Settings or Source Code (i want to learn how CM works. )
I've searched all settings in phone and don't found it.
Can anyone help me, please??
Thank you!
its probably in Settings > System > Notification light

[Fix/Tips] Battery drain and performance problems

Hello guys, I want to try to help everyone who has problems with battery life and performance.
First of all, I want to say that you shouldnt have any problems if you use your device in a normal way(calling ,social networking apps, playing light games etc)
A SOT of around 4-5h on mobile network or a SOT of 5-6h on WiFi is really good and in my opinion normal and you shouldnt need to worry about. Over night while you are sleeping (8h for example) your battery shouldnt drain more than 3-5%.
If you have much less SOT or much more battery drain over night, you should read the following steps and try them.
(I can tell you that my OP3 never drains more than 3-4% over night and I have no problem getting 4-5h SOT on mobile network or 5-6h or even more on WiFi use only. I have to say I dont use Facebook or twitter for example, but I have my Bluetooth always turned on because i use a mi band)
Please try the following steps and tell me if it did help you. (Please choose one option in the pool)
1. Activate doze mode and aggressive doze mode in developer options and change the animation scale
- Go into settings -> developer options -> Doze mode -> activate it
- Go into Settings ->Battery ->3 Dots Menu ->Agressive doze & app hibernation ->Tap the slider and activate for apps
- Go into settings -> developer Options -> Window Animation scale/Transitions Animation scale/Animator duration scale -> set them to .5x or even off
2. Install Greenify from Google Play Store and activate it
Activate it for every app you can, except for apps with a little blue cloud as they need to work in background to sync data. (WhatsApp for example)
3. Wipe cache after every update and from time to time (I recommend once a week)
Turn off your phone -> hold power button and volume down button -> release the power when your phone turns on -> select english by pressing the volume down button and then the power button -> go to wipe cache and data -> select cache (and nothing else!) and press the power button -> reboot now
4. Turn off potential power hogs you dont necessarily need
- For example turn off Bluetooth, GPS Location and Location history, Mobile Data if not in use, WiFi if not in use and NFC -> you can find them in settings under their name
- Also turn off things like gestures in settings: Go into settings -> Gestures -> turn them off
5. Use pocket mode
Settings -> Advanced -> Pocket Mode
6. Turn off Android Device Manager and Google Now Cards
- Settings -> Security & Fingerprint -> Device Administrators -> Android Device-Manager -> turn it off
- Open your Google App -> Settings -> Your Feed -> Turn off Feed
7. Configure your WiFi
- Settings -> Wifi -> tap the gear symbol -> turn off "Scanning always available"
- You can also turn off "Keep wifi on during sleep" but i dont recommend it as apps like WhatsApp will only receive messages when you turn your screen back on!
8. Use adaptive brightness
Use the little "A" in the dropdown settings menu next to your screen brigthness bar
9. Use a Browser that is developed for Snapdragon devices
I recommend using Gello Mod or TugaBrowser as they are developed especaily for using with a device with a snapdragon CPU to save battery -> just search for them in Google
10. Disable permissions of apps
Try disabling permissions of apps if possible. This should prevent apps from using your internet connection and staying in background keeping your CPU awake. Please be aware that some specific apps need some specific rights to work properly. Use the try and error method here.
11. If u have custom recovery installed you can use custom kernels such as ex kernel ,boeffla kernel, blu spark etc for better battery and performance.

This is a big guide and it's worth reading
Hit the thanks button if this helps:good:
These tips are like from 2010 which you come across random articles from web.. I thought you would post something new...
Also 3h sot on mobile network... I have used couple of phones past year never got such a bad backup on any of them..
Really stupid article.
For OB9 and above, what i have found that if you are using both greenify and aggressive doze, battery would drain like hell, Android System used to be always on top of stats with 25-30% of drain. Disabling aggressive doze and just using greenify solved this issue, and now Android System is back to normal.
pls guys, he trying to help .
if it works thanks him, if not find other tips
dont be so rude :fingers-crossed:

Wipeing is not necessary if not dump cause the phone has to build it up again and will use resources for that.
Thanks man, in my opinion, it's a good guide for beginners I'm not a beginner, I've just created a new user name
Thanks for sharing all these tips and references. As some mentioned I'd refrain or at least keep greenify as a last resort. Cheers
