@ancilary:
I made the test now and for me this solution worked perfectly:
If you go to an absolutely dark room and stay there for some minutes (until your eyes get very usual with that) you'll see your screen. Very darker, but you'll see. Swipe down the notification bar, click the app icon, and adjust the brightness. Now you can uninstall it (or use it in a happier way).

screen brightness program?

Does anyone else notice that even on the lowest setting the screen is still really bright? Does a program exist or can someone program one to dim the screen further for use in the dark? Thanks
Wear your sunglasses like this guy?

There are a number of programs in the market that will allow fine tuning. Power Manager, Toggle Switch, etc.

Your answer was even less relevant than mine and I thought I was going on a tangent. At least my idea would in theory work.
Power Mgr won't make it any less bright than the phone currently allows and how would toggle switches do anything for the brightness? lol

Well... Toggle Settings (sorry I called it switch before...) shows %'s, and allows you to set it the brightness from the app. it doesn't let you set it below 0% though (might be a nice feature...)
Power Manager allows you to set the brightness and to save 'profiles' eg. "night time' with the settings you want.
At least my answer had two apps that allow you to change the display brightness... goof

I found a program called aSettings that will allow you to set maybe 5% lower than the stock Settings program. However, this screen is still way too bright when using in the dark.

I set the aSettings to "0" and checked in Toggle Settings (for reference). TS reports display brightness at -4%. Seems there may be hope if we get one of the programmers to tweak things a little more.

Hero's brightness control.....

So I'm so sick of going back into settings everytime to change the brightness
Whenever I try to use brightness widget or PowerManagerPro Freaking OS changes the brightness back to what it was right away.
So every time I go outside I have to go to settings to turn up brightness cuz I can't see shot especially with screen protector and other way around or especially at nigh when driving and trying to look at the GPS and its just too damn bright.
There got to be a way to get powermangerpro or brightness widget to work on hero, its a such a pain in the ass plus it will save the batt too.
So how can that b fixed?

App to customize the Trackball LED

Hey there ppl
Iam searching for some software which can customize the Trackballs LED when i recieve sms or have a missed call to flash faster.
The LED is very usefull when you do not have any sound or vibration on the phone and its laying ont the table. But the idea of it dissappears when it only flashes once every 10 seconds as you will have to look at it in a long time to see if you have recieved anything.
So it could be really nice if some sort of software existed

You could install theVillain Rom 3.3.... When receiving sms, email, voicemail, notification, the trackball will led.. you can also switch off part of these settings.
Notifylight works fine (IF YOU HAVE ROOT!)

[Q] Navigator Bar/Status Bar isn't working

Hy guys
A friend of mine got a problem with his HTC One M7. His problem is, that when he tries to pull down the navigator bar or status bar (however you will call it ) it doesn't work. All notifications are shown in the status bar, also battery, clock etc. If he tries to open the bar, to get to the notifications or the quick toggles, he can't do that, the screen just don't react!
This happened since the last update of android (I thinke he's running 4.4.3 or 4.4.4). Before everything worked perfect.
The curious thing is, when he put his phone into landscape mode, he can gain access to the notifications and everything!?! But in normal mode not, very confusing...
Someone having the same issue? Or did someone solve this problem?
I really appreciate your help. Thanks mates

Sounds like a hardware issue with the top part of the screen.

In landscape mode everything works, and it happened after a software update. The screen reacts if you go to landscape mode and touch the screen (in a game or youtube)

Just because part of the screen works doesn't mean the whole screen works. To test it out you could enable touch points in developer settings and see if it is reg the touch. Or you could do a full wipe and flash of the stock software.

The problem isn't the notification bar itself but the top of the screen in portrait mode which is needed to detect a touch to activate the notification pull down. It must be a hardware problem. A relative of mine has the same issue, however on his it sometimes wants to work sometimes it doesn't. Try the HTC diagnostic menu, open the dialer and type *#*#3424#*#*
Then use the line drawing test and try to draw a line in the upper part of his phone. You may find that where the notification bar would be no line can be drawn there... If that's the case then it most likely is a faulty digitizer.
To test it further try going to the Play Store in landscape mode and try a swipe from the left it normally shows the hidden menu from the left in the Play Store. Like my relative you may find that the menu only shows when you swipe in from portrait mode and not in landscape.

Why Does My Chrome Now Look Like This?

So last night everything on my Google chrome was fine. Was set up just the way I like it. All functions such as the homepage button and setting were accessible at the top of the screen.
Well something changed over night. Now I've a hideous function bar at the bottom of the page
As you can see in my before photo, everything was located at the top of my screen all nice and neat.
In the after photo is what's going on now with the bar at the bottom of the page with all the feature buttons.
I didn't do any updates the night before. Just woke up this morning and was greeted with some unwelcome changes.
Have any of you noticed this too?
How can I go back to everything being at the top of the screen?
Thanks
So I just did an uninstall of updates, reinstall and everything is back to normal. But before I did that I checked a couple of other phones with current updates and they all didn't have the issue of the home, share tab and menus bar at the bottom.
What would cause this to happen over night?
I didnt update nor mess with any settings the night before.

Somehow experimental features we're enabled for you. I enabled them for myself when I first installed chrome
Chrome://flags
Search for duet
It's a new feature that's still in testing. I love it, been using it for weeks.
Also search for "dark" and you can force dark more on all website's (currently this feature inverts picture colors until you two to view that picture).
And there are also new tab switching tweaks. Here is how my browser looks on news.google.com. (xda has a dark more feature so that wouldn't be a good comparison)

I actually enabled enabled experimental features the 1st week I got my phone, when the note 9 came out. The only feature I enabled then was the home key/tab function. Maybe the devs did something to cause my issue to activate on its own?
Also, never really was interested in the dark mode until I saw your pics included with your comment. Pretty sweet! I'm kinda tired of my eyes bugging out every so often. Maybe this will help!
Thanks for your response and input!

I still cant help wondering how that setting was enabled. You'd have to physically goto the the experimental page and select the setting correct?
And nobody but me uses this phone.
