I have remote desktop working, I can control everything from my Pro... But the screen looks really bad, and when I go to properties it says 8 bit color quality and 640x480... It won't let me adjust either of those when I am connected...
Any thoughts?
Better choice
Look for a cab of Zadesktop it works and looks much better on my pro.
Good luck

You need to change these settings before you connect

Hello guys,
is there a way to let the browser stick to the global brightness setting?
Due to that rubbish 'feature' I always end up changing the brightness twice, as if once isn't already enough.
- wake phone
- think auto brightness is too bright -> turn it down
- start browser -> still on auto -> still too bright - aaarghhh!
later again:
- went outside
- wake phone
- put to auto again - looks fine
- start browser
- black screen FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
Please tell me there's a work around! This is so annoying and so useless!
There is an option in the display settings about "Auto adjust screen power" and I thought I heard that this adjusted the brightness when there is a lot of white on the screen (like a browser) to save power.
Try this?
Good idea. Unfortunately that's not it. But thanks for the hint, i've seen that dynamic brightness thingy in action and wondered whether i could turn it off.
No, it seams to be a less obvious solution. I'm thinking of the trick to change the user agent. Something like this, but there does not seam to be a about:settings or similiar. Any ideas?

You can change the useragend using about:useragent, but doesn't have anything to do with brightness settings.

Yeah this guy's right, the user agent doesn't have anything to do with brightness or the backlight at all. All it does it trick your phone into thinking it's a desktop PC so it doesn't show the mobile version of websites....as for the auto-brightness, have you got XWKE2 installed? Samsung have much improved the auto-brightness from XWKE1 and XWKDD.
You guys got me all wrong. I meant just like Samsung hid the option to choose the user agent, there must be a place to disable this annoying 'feature' as well. I know what the user agent does, don't expect me to be a total retard because of my 1 digit post count

No, it tricks the web server, not your own browser.

There's no need to be pedantic about it, it makes your phone display full sites not mobile ones, is that acceptable for your exacting standards?

You said something that was wrong, and I corrected you. Why are you being so defensive?
Anyway, I'll make a note that you can't stand being corrected. Happy?

Browser settings had separate brightness settings. Press menu and hunt around

Ok, I know that title isn't necessarily clear but I couldn't think of something better.
Does anyone know of an app that will automatically adjust the sound settings based on a timer.
i.e. When I go to bed I'd like my phone to be on silent and then have the ability to switch to a normal sound mode at say 6:30 am, then switch to vibrate at 8am.
I think you get my drift. Anyone have any ideas about if there is something out there or if it's possible?
On another similar note is there anyway to have an app that performs the auto shutdown/boot like blackberry?

Audio Manager has a "scheduler":

I'm sure you have to get the "Paid" version tho

Hi,
The HDMI out works fine however the display is not full on the LCD TV. I can understand bottom navigation buttons being not visible, however I have noticed that there is slightly more area that gets cropped. I dont have a screenshot but assuming stock launcher and icons at the bottom row, I can see the bottom row icons fine however the labels line is missing. Has anyone come across this situation?
Yeah, I had this. I set the TV Display to 'Just Scan' and it sorted it.
I saw this problem too. On one TV I have a just scan setting but on a different TV there is no settings for aspect so that kinda sucks. There needs to be a setting on the TFP.

What do you mean by "Scan". I am using default settings on the TV. I checked it on LG and Sony LCD. The problem could be with TFP as mentioned by junkiehyjinx.

This ^, most tvs will have display options like 16 x 9, just scan, stretch and so on. Just scan shows the original signal format that is being sent to the tv, it takes the tvs scaling out of the equation, which is the problem most of the time.

Me too. No scan option. I think this is causing my issues with Sixaxis on the TV.
I'm trying to change the touch sound and typing sound on my tablet z but couldnt find that option anywhere, please help thanks!
You can change it: To "Off". That sounds by far best.

I believe such customizations are rarely offered on the stock user interface layer and is considered a deeper level of customization, so you'll need to root your device to make such changes.
So, the LED is way too tiny for my aging eyes (also cannot get it to change colours with Lightflow anyway). I am looking for some sort of app that can show a notification on the screen when the screen is off. I don't want the screen to turn on. I just want some sort of icon to show up. I used to use an app called NoLed that would do this. You could customize icons for different notifications, colours, timing, duration, etc. Looks like that app is long gone.
I've been trying a bunch of different "edge lighting" apps, hoping to find one that will simply light up the edges to notify my (when the screen is off). So far, none of them work the way I want (or at all).
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!

Thank you! That's the old app I was referring to that I used to use. Glad you still have a copy. I've just installed it, but for some reason the icons a super small. Just like mini-squares, no matter what I do.

I just went through and tried messing with the settings, in notifications settings you can change it from dot to icon which makes some bigger.

There are several drop-in AOD replacement apps, and they work well, but... From all reports they drink your battery too much to be worth it. Too bad, not sure why Huawei didn't go that next obvious step and have control over 'per app' notifications and such. It pretty much makes the stock AOD useless unless you really, really like knowing what time it is.
Maybe give a try to this, a perfect AOD application fully customizable !

I tried this and was unable to get it to work. All I want it to do is light up the edges of the screen when the screen is off and a notification comes in. I had all the settings looking like they were correct. I chose difference colours for different apps, but no go. It wouldn't even work when trying "test". It would only work with the screen on.

Certainly a mistake in the configuration menu, because this is exactly the point of this app !
Tested and approved by your servitor right here, look at the screen shot I took when I just received a notification.

I tried that app, while i did get it to work fine, it was a massive battery drain & I mean massive.

Same here.. 30% overall drain overnight.. Means at least 20% by the app itself
Just gave this app a try and it's got a few quirks to it. If I leave the "allow fingerprint functionality" after about 3 seconds the fingerprint location lights up and that's all that shows on the screen.
I also noticed when unlocking, face detection is no longer automatic. I have to double tap the screen to dismiss this app and then double tap again to start the face unlock.
Its a shame the stock aod is so terrible

The stock AOD will hopefully be better soon as Huawei in it's p30 pro latest firmware will add 3rd party access to the AOD, so developers can add functionality to the AOD.
