This is the easiest and coolest way to apply a screen shade to your phone screen !
Applies a shade that acts as a dimmer to ensure your eyes don't hurt, beyond lowest brightness settings. Great for low light gaming, web browsing, and eBook reading. Saves battery life for AMOLED displays!
Control the filter level with a customizable bar that can be accessed from any application you're in.
Allow to set individual settings for each application in part.
Set custom picture, tiles and more.

2 methods for turning off softkeys, if doesn't work on your device try the other one, and if both doesn't work please contact me.
Wow. I love the concept.
I didn't have a chance to check out the whole video (youtube was acting up), but does this have the ability to automatically dim the screen to a specified level based on what application I have open? For example, could I set it to automatically dim my screen to the lowest setting when I have my bank app open?
That would probably make this worthwhile.

Yes, you can set the level independently for each application, the color, the choice to show/hide the bar.

I looked again and can't find it. There are only two other apps by you - Filter and Network Monitor. Unless it's not available for ICS devices.

The trial is published under a different account, just search in the market for "Total Screen Control" and you'll find also the trial version.
this is nice.,thanks ^_^ i will purchased this..
wow great idea, you are the best
Version 1.2 is out:
Added Tasker/Locale plugin !
thanks alot for posting, keep it up, you're doing great!
I just purchased the app. I like it, especially for the Tasker integration.
I was using the other 'Screen Filter' app for a while but it was
having full brightness flicker issues when I would have Tasker change
the filter % from one value to another. This was incredibly annoying.
I do have a MAJOR request though that I believe would help me truly
appreciate my purchase. The primary reason I use these filters is to
attempt to black out my AMOLED screen.....unfortunately, your Total
Screen Filter app maxes the filter at 94.12%. This is a huge problem
for me. Furthermore, your competitor (Screen Filter by haxor industry)
allows for dimming the screen even further then your app (they allow
for 2% filter....which is what you call 98% in your app....almost
pitch black).
I'm an optical engineer and work in extreme dark rooms alot. Sometimes NO VISIBLE LIGHT can be on in these rooms
while experiments are running...sometimes a very small amount is
acceptable.
So my DESPERATE plea for a feature request:
Allow for users to push the filter further beyond 94.12%....ideally a
full 100% black out. Because honestly, 94.12% is not enough at all for
my purposes. At least allow for a 98% filter so you can be equivalent
to your competitor's capabilities (which is a free app I might add).
I can understand your concerns with allowing this ability (people
unknowingly blacking out their screens). So maybe making it a
non-default ability would work perfectly. I use these filters with
Tasker and have it setup so I can easily remove the screen blackout
under particular conditions. Please help me out here. This ability
would really make me happy.

Hi, it will be implemented in the next version
Regards,
Alex
Is anyone able to disable the "gp2a - proximity/light sensor" from within "sensors.default.so" and/or "sensors.goldfish.so" so that people suffering from White Screen bug don't get white screen when answering or making a phone call. This is in regards to CM11 port by TheWhisp.
I tried using app "Hardware Disabler" to disable the driver which worked however it also crippled the phones processing speed and was too slow to be usable.
Would greatly be appreciated if someone could upload/attach the modified file/s
I want to create a profile that maximize the brightness when i launch lg g4 stock camera, but camera won't trigger the profile. I believe it is a common issue with lg g4 camera, because there are some compliants about this in some other sites too. What i wanna know is if it is possible to make camera app to trigger profile any other way. Thanks in advance.

That's strange, are you sure you picked the correct "camera" app while inside the application context?
Yes, i did. I also installed google camera to test if i did something wrong with the profile, but I didnt. Gc triggers, but lg g4 camera wont.
A workaround could be to create a task that opens camera, changes brightness settings. Then make a shortcut on home screen or triggered by gesture. Not sure about restoring the brightness settings, tho.

interesting. this could actually be perfect if it can restore the brightness back. can anybody think of a solution for that?

Only thing I can think of would be if tasker actually responded to your cam closing. But that's a stretch, seeing as it won't respond to the app starting.
Desperate bump
Actually, for an exit, how about a shake gesture? You can set it to return system brightness levels and close the app. And if you happen to shake the phone while not using the cam, it won't really effect anything.
A common method of manually changing the point of focus is to tap the screen in the area in which focus is desired. How can I somebody a focus point in the default camera app?
I cannot find an option to enable this function, and by default, tapping the screen takes a picture. As one cannot be expected to use manual mode to focus every picture, there must be a setting or ability I am overlooking.
Thanks for any help provided!

Have you tried the press and hold the screen? I think it locks the auto focus on the feature in the scene.
Sent from my LM-V405 using Tapatalk
Hmm, that does lock the focus on an area, but my issue is that the image--or the desired portion of an iimage-- does not properly come into focus to begin with. On previous phones, I've been able to tap an area of the screen in order to make the phone focus on that particular area.
The issue with images not coming into focus correctly especially effects the zoom camera. When using manual focus, I have no problem focusing images properly. It is quite frustrating to have to manually focus every photo I take with that lens.
Any other ideas? Have you experienced the focus issue I'm describing?
Edit: I've noticed that tap-to-focus does work as expected in video mode, but in photo mode, of course, it activates the shutter. Hopefully a future update will add a setting to disable this functionality. Until then, I may just have to rely on the--somewhat cumbersome--manual focus.
Actually, scratch that. I think the focus lock actually accomplishes what I'm looking for! I've noticed that in a addition to locking the focus on an area, if the area isn't currently focused, it will actually bring it into focus as well.
Thank you very much for the help!

No prob glad you figured it out.
In the leaked videos, the user was able to show the homescreen with icons on the rear display. Was that any early MIUI version option only?
In the current firmware, it's not possible... Laybe later?
Anyway, I don't see myself using an app on it, it's really small for that, + it'd require UI changes from the devs...

I would like to use it to answer with speaker or decline calls. Also use it for quick responses to text.
I have noticed I can skip songs on the Spotify playlist when it's playing by accidentally touching the rear display
( I haven't found anything useful to do with it yet tbh and I hope they improve the functionality of it )
Ohh nice! As of now it's pretty early, I'm sure they'll add those little things during updates

I haven't found any way to enable that home screen in rear panel but I haven't been trying either tbh
I don't think I'm getting the red notification light on the rear display either like it shows in the Xiaomi presentation vids but maybe I just need to enable it somehow
I usually don't set my phone's with the screen facing downwards on tables anyway so it's got limited usefulness to me anyway whether it works or not

The latest update to the 'Rear Display' app breaks the red notification indicator as far as I can tell.
But to enable it/change appearance
go to settings>special features>rear display.

I'm on the EU 12.5.3 and I like it but I think I have no red light flashing on the back screen for notifications although it is enabled in the settings...
One of the issues is the rear screen can only stay on for 30 seconds max which maybe why people think the notification is not working properly ( because you would have to double tap to see it even if it is working properly)
And who likes to set their phone face down anyway? These screens are fragile and very expensive !
Honestly think they just had a screenshot of their home screen and made it the image I never actually seen anyone able to use the mini screen
Yeah they haven't ironed the kinks out pertaining to the rear display.
Out of the box, I had the red led indicator show up although it would be there even when I had no notifications.
I like it as a novelty feature but they really need to address the functionality bit.
