Button lights - how to disable? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, is there a way to permanently disable the backlight behind the menu and back button? Running CM7.
Thanks

Didn't use CM7, but I'd be surprised if it's not similar to CM9 (which I do use). Try settings/advanced/sensors/ & untick "Enable keys backlight" (if it exists in CM7). If not maybe read/ask the CM7 discussion thread ?

Thanks, but that setting does not exist in CM7.
I've searched for the CM7 thread but couldn't find it; would you be so kind as to point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Try here or you can probably find an answer by reading the dev thread as well (I wouldn't post a question like that in the dev thread tho).

Update: I've solved this using a free app called 'screen filter'.

I'm not sure to be honest, I know in the settings menu there's an option to flip it horizontally so I'm assuming that might fix it but I haven't been able to test it out yet

[Q] How to remove the software update notification in the lower bar

I was on touchwiz uekmb rom and then downloaded the uekme update, but because I was rooted and deoxed, I didn't install it. Later I flashed task650's kme rom, and so I am updated, yet each time I turn on the tab I get a notification, even though I select "later" and then "never" when it asks me whether I would like to install and when I'd like to be notified. If I select "7 days" then I am left with a eye-sore update mark on the notification bar. Is there anyway to totally disable this update notification??
i'm having the same problem. Choose "none" option will not help either. It will pop up again. Is there a way to permanent disable the update?

I'm having this same problem and its very annoying. Anyone found an answer for this? Thanks in advance.
Same problem here. There has to be a way to delete the update data that was previously downloaded so that popup won't appear anymore. Haven't been able to locate it.
Okay, I found an answer that works for me. I flashed Task650's ROM before I downloaded the update. when i select "NONE" on the reminder it removes it from the notification bar. Obviously this is limited to this particular ROM (or maybe others I'm unaware of) since this solution doesn't appear to work for sic_lic101. just my 2 cents.
anyone found an easier/faster way to disable those notifications yet?

Dude this thread is really old in terms of where development of tasks ROM is now. So sadly I don't know what to say except update, I've not seen this issue for the newer ROMs but could be wrong.

I have updated to Overcome v2.3.0 but am still experiencing that problem.
I'd search the overcome thread first and if you can't find an answer there, post the question there. It'll get responded to quicker and most likely correctly. If you can't post in the development section. I'd post a new thread asking this question in the Q&A section telling why you posted it there and not in the overcome ROM thread. I think you'll get more, faster, and better replies.
Sorry I can't be of any help with direct solutions, only suggestions on getting better help.
I don't have the experience with the overcome ROM you probably really need.
I guess if you have more patience than me, you can just wait and see what you can get from here. Since its been bumped maybe someone with knowledge of this issue will spot it and come help.

Chances are good you are missing your keystr file. The fix has been discussed dozens of times. Please search for this. I should note you will need to be rooted to fix this. If you don't want to root, you will have to go back to gingerbread.

Nope, this one I don't know.
Edit to add: though, you've piqued my curiosity... Which DSP manager are you asking about?
I only know one DSP manger.

Are you talking about this, or this? (they actually appear to be the same thing)
It's mentioned in both threads that the "DSP Manager" app doesn't work with the stock music app. Are you trying to use it with the stock music app?
I dont know which one..both seem the same..and no.. Using poweramp

Then I surely don't know. Try posting your question in one of those two threads I linked. One of the threads DOES have a post that says you need to start DSP Manager before you start Poweramp. But I don't have either, so I'm not really qualified to answer questions on either.
Ok

Anyone know a fix for the ICS scrolling issue?

Scrolling in ICS is bad. When I scroll down a page, it will click a link and leave the page thinking I meant to click it when all I did was try to scroll down the page.
Does anyone know of a fix for this? I'm running AOKP 4-9-12 version with the Siyah 3.0.1 kernel.

ROM control in settings. Goto performance and you well see scrolling cache. Disable it.

I tried that but once I select force disable and exit out and go back in to verify it stuck, it says force enable again.

Yes, everyone knows the fix but you. In fact, the Dev (Task) knows the fix but decided not to include it.
Seriously? You think theres a fix yet the Dev wouldnt include it? ICS is still new, several tweaks are being tested to see which ones will work best. When the Devs know this, they will implement them. If thats not satisfactory for you, then downgrade back to GingerBread until ICS is more refined.

Lockscreen Icons

Does anyone know how to change the Lockscreen shortcuts? May I'm blind but I haven't been able to find it. I don't need a chat-on icon for a shortcut.

When you are in the lockscreen settings, click on the word shortcuts. That should let you edit them.

And this is the third thread created about this... Xda should have a system like.. When you create a thread.. Before its posted it will automatically search for keywords in the text somehow and bring you some alternative to cancel the post due to finding the answer from forced search or still create the thread

There's a good vB mod that does just that. Maybe the admins would consider installing it.
Uhhh, there is one already installed here and it does exactly that. The problem is, is that people ignore it.

Huh! Never noticed that. I just tested it and, yeah, it looks like the same mod.
