Open a book. Tap in the middle of the page open the settings (gear icon, second left) dissable auto brightness. Brightness of the ebook app is independant of the system brightness.

[Q] Capacitive button backlight on all the time

I have recently and the first time flashed CM7 (nightly #183) and most things work really well. except I can see the backlights for the buttons are on always, very dim but on, hence a short battery life.
I have since flashed #185 and no difference I can see.
Anyone?
Cheers

That's the backlight notifications, the dimmed setting is actually the most battery friendly.

Go into Menu,Settings, Cyanogenmod settings, Interface, LED notifications. Look under "Unconfigured for the app you want to disable the backlight led notification on and click on it. Click on LED Mode and select "Force LED off" and select save. (You should notice that a Miscellaneous tab appears under the "Unconfigured" tab. Once you configure an app it'll move from the unconfigured tab to the Miscellaneous tab)

Great thanks, that worked a treat
Thanks both

[Help] Capacitive Buttons not lighting up on touch when up Rom CM9 4.0.4 BCM

when i updates CM9 4.0.4 BCM for my Nexus One, the capacitive buttons (as back, menu, home, search) not light up when I am in a dim room. I can force them on my covering the brightness sensor. My Inspire would light up whenever I hit a button. Is there maybe a setting I am missing to turn the feature on?
Do you help me?!
Thanks.

You can tweak brightness levels on CM9. This includes the button lights being on /off - value of 255=on, any other value = off.
Think it's Display >. Automatic back light > Use custom > Edit other levels.
You will then see a table of values with a Button column on the right hand side. Set this to 255 or 0 as needed.
Of course you need to have Automatic Brightness switched on in the first instance for this to work.

i work it with your guide. but it not ligh.
Do you give me specific instructions?

i'm ok!
thank you very much!

No problem.
You can also use the app Screen Filter. With this app you can dim your screen to different levels. However it also has an option to set the button lights on/off, so you could also use that without requiring Automatic Brightness.
So you could create a Screen Filter Widget at say 96% brightness and button light on, and another similar one with button light off. Try it out anyhow.
Hope that makes sense, and good luck

[Tutorial] AUTO BRIGHTNESS 100% Working[NO ROOT]

Hello Guys!!
Have anybody missed AUTO BRIGHTNESS feature in MINI because lack of Ambient Light Sensor,
If yes, the don't worry. I have an easy solution for Auto Brightness, Yes you can use Auto Brightness on GALAXY MINI:victory:
NO ROOT REQUIRED
Download and install These two app from following links:-
Lux Auto Brightness
Tasker
After Installing these apps follow these steps:-
Lux Auto Brightness:-
Go to Lux settings
Tap on Sample Collection
Tap on Select light reading source
Select Camera
Then get back to main settings menu
Tap on Mopdify linked samples
Tap on Luma TAB
Tap on ADD, set brightness (yello bar) to 4% Luma value to 1 and press ADD
Add 3 more links with these values= 35%-70|100%-80|50%-120|
Exit Lux
Tasker:
Open Tasker, tap on Plus Sign(+) on main screen
Tap on Event
Select Display in Event Category
Select Display On in Display Event
A blank screen will appear, do nothing just press BACK Button
TAP on New Task +
Enter Name to task or just tap on tick
A blank screen will Appear, tap on Plus Sign (+)
Select Plugin from action category
Select Lux Plug-in
Tap on Edit Button
Scroll Down and Tick in front of Refresh Backlight brightness? Under Force
Press Done, then press back and back again
Exit Tasker
Thats all work to do, now your dvice have Auto Brightness feature:silly:
To test, just press power button and lock the screen and then cover front (rear Camera if your device don't have front) camera with finger and press power button again, screen will Light up wait 1-2 seconds, Screen brightness will reduce, remove finger, lock unlock screen and brightness will resume to normal.
I have tested this for full day on my L9 and got no any battery drainage.
You can modify Linked Samples Values to your comfort zone for batter sample values you can also search other XDA forums.
Guys try it and let me know how you feel
if you got any issue please post, I'll try to solve it (Coz m also new to TASKER & LUX so may be it will take little bit time to Solve:fingers-crossed
EDIT: You can uncheck "Presistent notification" in general settings of Lux Auto Brightness, If you think it is draining your phone's battery. This will also disable the annoying Lux icon from notification.
HIT THANKS IF I DESERVE IT

Hello hsay,
Thanks for using and appreciating my tutorial :good:
I am using TASKER, some times android's task manager kill lux services, so tasker force resume these services again.
so when ever your phones screen turn on tasker will resume lux to adjust brightens

Fix for screen flickering on Galaxy S4

1.
Uncleck the Auto Brightness toggle on the Notification menu.
2.
Settings-> My Device-> Display-> "scroll to the bottom of the list"
Uncheck "Auto adjust screen tone"
Hope this helps!

It is helpful, but, wrong forum.. this is the Galaxy S (GT-I9000), not the S4 (GT-I950x)...

I think I've found the best solution out there for most annoying screen flickering issues... Done a substential amount of digging and finally discovered the app "Twillight" which works like a charm by enabling backlight control feature... Try it out first, then thank me and share your experience here ...
