use widgetsoid.
1) Root your phone!
2) Buy from the Market and Install "Disable Auto Brightness Xperia".
I am using Widgetsoid too,but it doesn't really affect the light sensor!
Since it is a hardware issue,only an app with root access can solve it!
But the app I suggest, disables it!
Disable auto Brightness
search for free..do not pay.

Hey guys, i'm currently not able to install non-market apps. I've checked in system settings that this is allowed. The only problem is that the install button cannot be activated but the abort button.
Does anybody has an answer for that? (example attached)
Thanks!

Juicedefender
Hi, are you using Juicedefender or any other app managing screen brightness ?
If yes, disable this app and it will work, you can reactivate it after you apk install
I had this issue with JD and it made me mad :silly:

Screen Filter
I had the same problem with Screen Filter. But when I turn it off everything works fine. So no problem at all.

Thank you!! I have JB Galaxy S3 and was having the same problem!! Found your post and disabled LUX (which controls screen brightness) and was then able to install my non-market app. Doesn't make any sense why that would have anything to do with it, however thank you for the fix!!
When I open or close a folder on home screen there is a voice saying "Folder Closed/Open".
How do I turn this off?

Have you got Missed It installed or another app that requires accessibility settings turned on?

Yup its a bug.
Disable google text-to-speech and samsung tts in application manager. Thats the only way to fix it for now.

Hey guys,
I have noticed that Xperia S doesn't have a light sensor. but in whitepaper they say it is.
i really like to enable auto brightness control but with this i am unable to do it.
The auto brightness is working fine and it's always on,there is no option to turn it off,you need a third-party app to turn it off.

If u want to enable auto brightness just set ur brightness to about 18 percent and reboot! Then u'll notice auto brightness works!

Thanks man this worked.
I have been reading in many threads in the Xperia Sola/P/U sub forum that one should turn off auto rotation to save battery if that feature is not being used.
I used to do that. Until yesterday evening while playing Temple Run, when a doubt came to my mind.
Since auto rotation is turned off. But the guy in the TR2 picks up movement from tilting the phone also. Which means the gyroscope (on whatever device that is used to measure angular movements) must be running even after auto rotation is turned off..
So if gyroscope is still on, is there any actual battery saving?

Yes is for Turing it off disable sensors and it saves battery
Sent from my Xperia U using Tapatalk 2
By turing off auto rotation means
Screen will not rotate while in normal apps, gallery, brpwser etc
It doest mean it will completely turn ur senor off...
Games require gyroscope so it will run while playing
Sent from my Xperia U using xda premium
That will turn off sensor for screen rotation but not for games.
But if you arent playing game and you have autorot turned off you are saving battery
Ps sorry for my bad english

If Auto Rotation off disables sensors, how are games still able to sense movement.
If auto rotation off does not disable sensor, how is battery being saved?

It does disable the sensor, but when you install some apps (games in paticular that use the gyroscope and stuff) they have the permission to turn it on, but outside of that app it will be off. Very simple actually

Turning off autorotate will not save your battery.
Also factor in the negligible savings from cpu not polling sensors, or processing animation for rotation.
It will NOT save your battery at all...

See my previous post. However small, a saving is a saving.

Works fine for me here.
Create a new profile-Events-Display-Display On.
Add Task-Net-WiFi-On.
Similar for Display Off.
That's all I did.
