min brightness in build.prop

hi there.
l have noticed a min brightness parameter in the build.prop file which is set to 15. will Changing it to 0 make the screen go black at min level?
rooted 404

There are many such apps like screen filter to do so

these apps seem to interfere in lot of other phone operations. cuz I have read a lot about screen filter issues... wat does this parameter in build prop do

Its better to use build.prop if it works, why use an app to change it, it will run in background and drain battery
@OP, it may be dangerous to change it to "0" as if it turns to min brightness you may not be able to change it again due to invisibility.
try it when you have to flash another rom.

I have tried it..
changed the default from 15 to 0..
earlier i was on min brightness..( slider full left) > screen not black
after changing the build.prop value .> i checked settings in display and the slider can be moved further to the left but does not have any effect on the screen... the brightness on screen stays the same...

[Q] How to change the default values ​​of the brightness of the screen?

The minimum brightness of my ROM is still strong, I wanted to know if you have to change the system values ​​to decline further

Re: [Q] How to change the default values ​​of the brightness of the screen?
Use YAAB app from the store..
sent from my phone using hands and brain...

Which ROM? You might have the ultra-brightness setting ON.
Even if it shows as disabled, try enabling and disabling it again. If you see a huge difference, you've got your answer. Sometimes this option is enabled at each boot, so beware.

Re: [Q] How to change the default values ​​of the brightness of the screen?
Hw-config from system/etc
Better to read some advanced guide cause it's a bit hard.
Tip: you can always change defaults in cyanogen settings / screen settings (can't remember the destination)if you wanna cook rom you can grab saved preference from root/data & put them in a patch.Zip file(easiest way)

[Q] Increase vibration intensity

delete

Why on earth would you want to increase the vibration intensity? My phone gives me mini heart attacks every time it vibrates on a table. But to answer your question, it's quite easy. You have a create an init.d script that changes the vibrator module's voltage. I'll attach one I made, but it's made to decrease the voltage. Just open the file in notepad++ or something and change the number after "echo" to something higher. Then save it and copy the file to your init.d folder, set the proper permissions (I don't remember what they were exactly but just give it all permissions), and restart your phone. Once it starts up, you'll feel the vibration seems normal, give the phone a minute and it'll apply the vibration setting.
Also, remove the txt extension from the file, it should have no extension.

#!/system/bin/sh
#night mode
echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/wled:backlight/max_current
Can be used as script or via terminal emulator
If you need more brightness change value after echo
My value>
1 for lowest
3 for normal
25 for max

Explain little more please?

Okay, fir now i lowered the max current, now the display is really nice and dim how just how i like it
But max brightness is very low now, only if i could only changr thr min value

You can use apktool to decompile framework-res.apk and change the lcd backlight related numbers in /res/values/ files. The lowest setting that I can still see my screen was 2. The lowest manual setting changes but the adaptive brightness doesn't go to the new minimum. But sometimes the framework-res.apk doesn't rebuild properly and you need to restore with recovery and ADB.

Just change value to 25
But you need change this value every time each reboot.
Not a permanent, but a handy solution :3
For me, I made 3 script as widget (in small app), so I can change brightness value as I like.

I will be grateful if you share with us how to make these shortcuts in small app menu.
Also which setting do you use for night?
For me i tried 3 and i like it. My eyes are very sensitive to light and will make them dry and bit sore

Edit sound levels without result in mixer_gains.xml

Hi. I am editing the file mixer_gains.xml to increase the sound of the speaker and there is no way to increase or decrease the sound, the same sound level always comes out. It does not work editing the file.
Any other secret file to increase or decrease the sound level?

It should work, Check you have the correct access so the file is saved.
Which exact values are you changing?
