what i really miss on my g1 is..

a lightsensor .. why the hell does it miss this 0,02$ piece of crap? )=
Dimm screen in darkness, brighten screen in sunlight <.<
May some1 write a little application which works as a Shortcut for 2(or more) brightness settings ?
so i can place this on my homescreen and
1. click 20%brightness
2. click 75%
3. click 20%
4. click 75%
(Working on Cupcake! Android 1.5!)

Haha true. Even my damn Sidekick had a sensor.

There is a market app called "Backlight" that does this. I don't know if it works in the Cupcake builds though...

Well, i had this idea a while ago but i thought it would eat to much battery
but it works like a charm!
http://www.cyrket.com/package/org.pbxes.light gogo get it, works fine on 1.5 !

cant this be done withe the camera and a little app. i mean i-p-tel has an app which named "helligkeitssensor" in the german market. i think its a brightness sensor which uses the camera to get information about environment brightness and then change the display brightness with this information?? like this one: Ambient Light Sensor
know what i mean??

Yes that can be done, there are several apps that do it, but a simple 2c light sensor would be much more efficient, ie less cpu, less battery wasted etc.

to the OP, have you seen this widget?
http://www.cyrket.com/package/com.roundedlabs.widgets.Brightness
Obviously you'll need cuppycake for it to work.

Auto-brightness sucks! Any fixes?

I find that the auto-brightness on our phone doesn't reduce to the minimum possible! Is there a setting I'm not seeing?
I always use the widget to control it because it can take it much lower than the auto brightness does.
...so are there any fixes, or would we need a custom kernel to be able do that?

Auto brightness is just very inefficient. I've been using manual brightness on this and my previous phone for a long time. You could use an app such as Screen Filter which reduces the brightness, but it seems to make the colours look a bit washed out to me.
With regards to a custom ROM or kernel, I have no idea whether this would help, but I've never seen changes to the auto brightness function on any previous custom ROM I've ever used.

From what i know, You would need a custom Kernel.. try getting ' My Settings ' From market ... gives as much control as possible to ur stock ROM for screen brightness as possible along with a host of other useful toggles.
Be sure to add a SHORTCUT onto ur home screenm for easy access
it has improved my battery life quite a bit !

I don't understand how they could screw up such a simple thing!
I'm running froyo... does gingerbread fix the auto brightness?

Lowering the lowest brightness level

Does anyone kno of an app that can lower the lowest brightness level? I tried screen filter but i dnt like the tint it uses n it kinda distorts the quality of images and videos shown. I tried googling stll no luck. The lowest brightness level is still brite at nite.....

Have you tried turning off the Auto brightness feature and then manually reducing the brightness in the display options?

If you turn off Auto Brightness in your Display Settings, you can run your finger left or right along the top slide-down menu bar (the one that displays time, battery, signal, etc) to decrease or increase the screen brightness.

Srry i meant lowering the brightness lower than the lowest level limit. The screen is still to brite for me at the lowest level at nite.

App: screen filter

Use this software from Android Market,
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.curvefish.widgets.brightnesslevel&feature=search_result
Android Os will report you zero brightness when you change it in settings, but still it has 8% brightness enabled, so the above software will help you to pulling it back to original 0%

Even better than that, I remember supercurio (iirc, or was it hardcore?) hacked the SGS kernel to enable to an even lower brightness setting ages ago. However I haven't seen this hack integrated into any kernels for ages (unless I'm missing something and it's already there)

Hardcore's Speedmod K13E kernel for 2.2.1 has a super low brightness level

Try the dimmer app, it is better than screen filter, not as grainy.

any oficial rom with lowest minimal brightness?
thanks

I'm sorry to bring this up again...
I'm testing out the last build teamhacksung's CM9 and it came with a bunch of options to optimize the brightness.
Although I've been experimenting on this options for quite a while, the brightness is very irregular. At one moment is very dark and for no reason the brightness comes back up while I'm in total darkness.
Do you have any idea of what's causing this?

I get this as well. Also, the screen will auto-dim after a short time of inactivity. How to control this?

Also, I have a friend with the same software as me, everything the same and his Galaxy S gets much darker than mine. Even when we have them side by side.

Try Semaphore's kernel on THS ICS. It has its own auto brightness that works well and has a Dark setting.
That said, I still use screen filter on top of that in darkness.

Semaphore's kernel disables the BLN for me.
What I did was...
In the definitions put the dim level to 6. And then I added a button in the notification bar for brightness and I gave it the automatic and dim options.
That way when I'm inside doors I put it to dim and when I'm outside I change it to automatic.

In the same ROM as mine? Can you tell me where are the configurations for the BLN after installing the Semaphore kernel?

[Q] is there a way to change the haptic feedback / vibration intensity?

i can't seem to find the setting for this. the stock vibration is a little too strong for me.

I know faux's app for his kernel lets you change the vibration but its not much of a difference as 94% = stock in the app.

Its a kernel not a rom. What do you need screenshots of?

My bad. too excited with my new Yureka that not paying attention to anything

flashed this kernel and used it for 5 hrs.
Good BATTERY command.
i attended a con-call for 90 plus minutes and battery drained only 5%
No lag while using basic games like clash of clan or clash of lords
Issues identified
screen black out while on call, you cant control your calls like add new call or check text while you are on phone calls. but no issue in voice and reception.
while making call you cant drop call as screen goes black out.
No heating issue as far i observed.
colour reproduction is good.
seems need little fine tune can make this kernel a must install.
All the very best to develops
Regards

question
MIUI custom ROM supported???

you are talking about proximity sensor issue , is it right?
Sent from my AO5510 using XDA Free mobile app

Review after using a whole day.
1. First & best intelli_plug driver - loved the live and smooth activation and deactivation of cores acc to load. only single core runs while using light apps (whatsapp,hike,tapatalk etc) i.e. full utilization of a single core.
2. Highly customizable using the FauxClock pro app.
3. cpu temp was usually higher (50-60 degrees) than my last kernel (Tz).
4. As @sunilnair007 posted the screen goes black while call. But one thing i noticed was when i press just at the side of proxi sensor the screen wakes up Exactly same as the Yureka proximity issue but on all other kernels the proxi was working fine on my phone (stock, thunderzap)...
5. i didn't used the phone for an hour or so i.e. phone was in deep sleep the i tried to wake up the device by the power button several times but finally had to remove battery and put again and booted the device :c
and after turning on the battery was 12% (earlier it was above 75%) and it was increasing by itself >.> battery usage graph ss --- i.imgur.com/y9QCyCz.png
and after keeping it turned off for sometime and restarting the battery got stable at 46% and started decreasing as per usage. (so got much less battery backup)

How to make best use of it.
Installed this kernel.
However, it seems very complex to make best use of it by a person like me who is not used to Custom Kernels. Before this I have used ThunderZap2, and Xcelerate, without much of tweaking. In Xcelerate for example, I found that different cores where shutting down by default. Here all the core are working by default. Obviously with this Kernel it seems I will have to do some tweaking.
I have also installed Kernel Adiutor as recommended in OP. However, information on recommended setting is too sketchy.
Would like to more detailed information as how to tweak / set this kernel to make best use of it.

tons of thanks to you bro... for kcal addition
Bro thanks a lot for adding kcal colour management to YU yureka..
Very nice bro..
One thing bro the hotplug is only working with 4 cpu of first cluster only...
I'm using kernel audiutor beta...
And please rommended any setting to run it cooller because comparing to other custom kernel it run little high temp..
Otherwise working grate.....

Seems developer worked hard and results are visible.
No complaints so far testing since morning.
Need 2 days time to give a stable review.
Best wishes and please keep this spirit intact

Noticed this too. Pressing the volume buttons once/twice, when it is unresponsive, wakes it right back up.

Firstly, I'll try to simplify the recommended settings.
Secondly, hotplugging is not enabled by default.
Enable it by going to CPU Hotplug in Kernel Adiutor and enabling Intelliplug.

Set the Intelliplug profile to Eco Conservative/Eco Performance to hotplug upto 7 cores.
I'm looking into the cluster problem as mentioned.
To run cooler, try reducing the max frequency.

Regarding point 5 , I faced same behavior in TZ as well xccelerate kernel.I don't understand the problem.the battery completely drained out and more heat on backside of the mobile.whenever if i would make any changes on IO SCHEDULER or governed faced the issue.

The issue is that if you set performance profile to "Power save", gov "ondemand" & min frequency lesser than 500MHz, phone sleeps to death & you have to hard reboot to get back on. Its a known bug and is present in stock kernel too. Check if settings i stated are the reason for you. Doesn't happen with "Interactive" because it never scales lower.

@neomanu , Do I need to wipe cache and dalvik cache while flashing this kernel over any ROM. Also I have flashed a custom kernel previously and now I want to flash this, so Should I simply follow your instructions or need to wipe something.

No Need to wipe anything. To give u extra boost you can wipe dalvik cache which will rebuild cache again and its always good. no need of cache or data wipe

Is this kernel support's volte?
