[Q] Screen Brightness in stock browser ... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've seen elsewhere that on some Samsung devices (and others possibly) that there is a separate setting for the screen brightness in the stock browser (and possibly other places).
Everything seems to indicate that there is a menu option to adjust this ... however on my S3 there's no settings option in the menu .... what am i missing ?
This was fine last week when i got the phone, but now something has made it almost impossible to read (think using sunglasses outside on a bright day ) ... i think something i installed has caused the problem but not sure. damned thing works just fine when you leave the browser or even go to the bookmarks page ... Ahhh !!
Cheers ... Andy

Did you try scrolling browser options to the bottom?

Doh ... !

Ya, thanks anyways, it doesnt seem to go away for me, and i flashed Chrome rom, and it is fixed now.... thanks anyways, and again, great ROM, chrome isnt compared to it. but i like Wifi
am downloading it now (v13).. lets see. will update on ur link if i run across any problems
This is a great looking ROM. Like its almost ripped out of the TP2 or a Hero. Very quick and responsive. One noticeable isssue Ive had is a resizing problem when texting in landscape. Other than that, im also pleased i barely had to install anything, like almost everything i needed was there already.
Kudos
Just flashed this rom and I'm very happy with it. Runs very smooth and fast.
Only thing is I can't find the keyboard selector. Was it cooked in or do I have to install it? It seems the fuze keyboard is selected and this makes using the hw keyboard on a TP kind of difficult.
Awesome work on the rom!
Is all the hardware button working?

All seem to be working on my touch pro including volume control.
I had to install the fuze / pro keyboard selector to get the hw keyboard working correctly.
Home button
Is there any chance to make Home Button open Manila Home Tab instead of WM start menu?
Hmm I installed chome editor 1.6 and now the lower left button (next to the start button) always says action and when pressed tries to start the htc action screen which isn't there. Is there a way to restore this?
First I want to say Thank You for such a beautiful ROM. It's fast, finger friendly, and professional looking. (Love the slider)
A couple things I have noticed are as followed:
1. Under the Notifications options, when I select "New Text Message", then try to select a different sound it scrolls the window behind the drop down box... not the actual drop down box. Same goes for the "Event" box, but only on some. Hard to explain.
2. Minor but annoying - When waking up and the device is locked, the clock jumps to the bottom of the screen then back up to the top.
3. Another Minor thing - "Start" occasionally shows up on the top left of the screen. Is it always supposed to be there or never? I know it brings up programs.
4. GfxBoost (lol "DO NOT DISTRIBUTE") has some icon issued on the bottom left and right. Bottom left (you can only see 1/4 of the windows logo) and bottom right (Don't know what it's supposed to be)
All-in-all i feel this is a fantastic ROM. I'd love to see what else you got up your sleeve. After about 16 hours I was down to 64% battery with hardly any use, but then again I was in the office where I get ZERO signal!
funny, I can only confirm the first issue. This happens only when using a sweep to scroll. When the slider is used it scrolls ok. I have also seen this pn the activesync screen when selecting message delivery schedules.
I'm running without manilla btw. I love Titanium
I am not registered (yet) on the other forum, hence posting here.
Installed v13 and its amazing.. fast and nice graphics..
Only one issue uptil now. In call recording is not working. It gives an error (something like cannot start ICR, wrong certificate etc..) Can I unistall ICR (not in the remove programs list) and install autocall recorder 1.2 instead? tht gives me more options..?
thanks
Thank You
Very nice ROM, thanks! I haven't gone through everything, but all seemes good so far!
Hey herg!
I had no idea you were a chef too! I flashed your rom and it is kick ass so far...
Aside from TF3D being a little sluggish (not that I care since I no longer use it... iPhoneToday all the way... for now ) it have not seen bugs.
BT file transfer - oK
3G connection - oK
ActiveSync - oK
Battery life - pretty good so far
GPS lock on - to be tested later
Wifi - to be tested later
I will try to report some more later on, but so far... kick ass!
love it
i havent updated to D-fresh-est but your doug-e-fresh is an amazing rom thank you for your contributions buddy im flashing this sucka tonight

in 6.5.1 builds the keyboard selector is gone. Instead, hold down the keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen and the selector pops up. That's the good...the bad is that it makes it harder to toggle the keyboard off the screen cause pressing it leads to he selector instead of toggling but that's the build, not the ROM. I'm still loving the ROM

OTA ICS Thoughts and experiences

Those of us who are too scared or just lacking in skills to upgrade ROMs and have the OTA ICS, probably should have had it for a few days now. I was wondering what people were making of it, good bad?
I would say that for me by far the best thing is the Launcher (I think I have described it correctly) Replacing the excessviely large "phone" button and the very rarely used after you have got your phone set up "personalise" button with 4 customisable ones is fantastic (I know that other launchers offer this but I tried them and always prefered to stay with sense)
I was insensed when I used the Quick Settings and coudln't see settings there, I even went as far as to place a shortcut on my deesktop, only to see that they have hidden it as the small grey and white symbol, lol!
I would say that it seems to be somehow even worse on battery useage, although not by much and I haven't propperly obseved it yet.
Apart from that I haven't really noticed any major changes aside from teh removal of the pwer saver settings, I have installed an app that allows access but can't see how to change when it is activated.
Here's a thread where it's already being discussed:

But that thread is nearly entirely about installing without losing root etc, I was wondering more about peoples experiences of actaully using ICS.
Ics sucks.big time.i really regret updating.
Cons
I cant use screen filter app to turn off the soft keys.the irritatin soft keys wont turn off any more.the resultant light leakage at the base just makes me angry.
3d video playback isnt as smooth as it used to be.it stutters very minutely.took the fun out of watchin 3d movies on the phone.
Previously i was able to play 1080p mkv via dice player without any hiccup.now there are hiccups.
The stock video player is crappy as usual.
No burst mode or takin stills while recording in camera.
Asphalt 6 doesnt work on 3d any more.
Srs doesnt work on music player.
So no real improvements for me here except for the changed settings menu and a bit smoother transaction animations.its like htc was purposefully makin it worse to make people change the phone.
I wish i didnt update.i wish i could downgrade :'(

By softkeys I assume you mean the capacitive buttons? If so try Keyboard Backlight Controller. I didn't give it the rather misleading name. I think you can get it from Play.

Is this update the same base as the custom ones that have been circling around? Ive been using a custom one for a while, and while it is good, the battery life is making me consider getting a galaxy s3.
Well for me , the ICS is great. I love the new camera app. I have a lot more colors in the pictures. And i love this. The old GB made photos almost black and white even with the saturation on full.
The widgets and the new sense 3.6 i love. Is more customizable. And it really works a lot more smoother the sense 3.
I found till now some bugs. But i don't know where to report them to htc. Can't find the "contact dev team " on they site.... anyway.
Bugs so far:
Widget Power Dashboard , sometimes the animations stay over and i have a wifi icon with 7 bars over it , not 3.
The streaming player is really a disaster. 80% of sites that used to use stream player , now says " Can't load video " Only youtube works. Not even ES Video Player works, the only app that i can use now is Sopcast.
The videos playing on the default browser , are really horrible. In FULL SCREEN MODE in 90% of the cases i can't use any of the players buttons. You just push them , and doesn't work. You have to exit the full screen , push what you need and then go back into full screen.
Sometimes if you try to seek the video a bit further it just ramains Black , the player. The video plays in background , you can hear it , but no image. Only solution to get it back , is to refresh the page. And restart the video. ( strange is that on youtube videos , all this works perfectly , but on any other websites or flash player based videos doesn't)
No more power management
If phone is unde 5% battery and you put it on charge. The screen will keep turning of after 30 seconds till the phone passes 10-15% battery , and then get's back to 1 minute timeout screen.
Edit :
Onavo Extended doesn't work.
Onavo says " Are you running an official ROM of ICS for your device?
In any case, It seems that your device uses a ROM that is missing important networking support that Android 4.0 APIs and Onavo Extend rely on. Android OS upgrade should fix the problem. Also, if you manually installed the ROM yourself, trying a different ROM should fix the problem.
We are compiling a list of supported ROMs and plan to publish it in the near future. We will keep you posted.
We truly apologize for the inconvenience and hope that you will be able to enjoy Onavo Extend benefits soon enough. "
I like the ICS update.
1. Battery longer lasting.
2. My screen brightness is much higher.
3. Phone is much more responsive.
4. 3D rendering seems much easier.

I agree with you. And some apps just work great on ics.
I also love that music player , that they put a volume button . And that if you press the volume key , you can then slide with your finder the volume from the screen. Also , the mails are more responsive. Usually they had a delay of about 15-60 seconds. Now sometimes are instant. So an improvement .
And i love the new Folders. Are sooo usefull now.
The task manager from the ics is also great. ( pressed home key )
Oh , and the youtube new app , is great. It even has a Live category where you can watch Live shows. Great.
The new gallery is a bit improved and more hansom .

The camera Shutter Speed , is almost the same. No improvement there.
Last longer compared to GB , cause now for navigating trough the menu doesn't use that much CPU anymore. But uses GPU with a bit of cpu (if needed) , and this increases the battery life.
An exemple: with tha battery at 20% i can now read news , navigate the web , watch some videos ( no games ) for almost 2 hours.
Compared to GB where when the battery reaches 20% was like saying "battery depleted" couse in max 20 minutes the battery was almost empty.
Don't know if it was just me or....
From 20% to 0% how much take's you?

I've updated today, and now the 3D doesn't seem to be working - this happened once before and a reboot resolved it, but that has not worked this time round.
Any pointers? Basically, the 3D "eyes" are generating a cross-eyed image on screen, playback has the right image showing from the left & vice versa, camera use just generates blurry 2D images.
other than that, the ICS update seems very good - start up is a lot quicker, and all the Google apps seem to have been aesthetically improved. "More Tron like" as somebody said to me.
I got the ICS+Sense 3.6 update and I'm enjoying it so far. It's all stock since I bought (no custom ROM or root, as I haven't saw the necessity of this).
So much sleeker and faster than 3.0!
Had a problem with the spell correction but after playing with the settings it normalized. Apart from the default SMS "Messages" app, where it'll underline in red all the words that aren't English [my mother language is Brazilian Portuguese, I use the phone in English and the keyboard in Portuguese] - but I'm not sure if this problem is new with this update lol.
I like how I can disable stock apps now, I could disable all the bloatware and take away many apps I don't use from the app drawer.
(Immediately disabled Google+, take that Google! haha)
Also, it solved a bug where the phone would think it was with the headphones plugged-in which made it stop doing any sounds through its speaker: if you stopped the music using the physical play/pause button in the headphones and unplug them while the device in sleep mode (screen turned off) that would happen and there would be no ringtone or alarm sounds until I played a media sound manually for it to recognize the headphones aren't there anymore. :good:
The Music app got a queue feature where we can select which songs to play next, like a playlist you build in real time. That's everything I was looking for in the music player!!
The new HTC Notes app is very good and comparable to the one I'm using, Handrite. I'll be testing the new one, the difference being Handrite has dedicated buttons to quickly copy, paste, undo, redo and more text/trace/paper formatting settings..., and more widget sizes to choose. While HTC Notes let you to sync with Evernote and record sound into your notes, I don't really dig into this idea so it's a matter of personal needs.
What I don't like about it:
HTC:
- There's no direct Wi-fi toggle in the notifications bar anymore, I don't understand why HTC would remove it.
- The album art in the Music app appears smaller, I wish there was some sort of configuration...
ICS:
- The setting for entirely disabling background data doesn't exist anymore. :/
- There's no way to set ringtone and notification sound volume separately.
These are my impressions so far.
I might send some e-mails to HTC regarding these issues. It seems they value user feedback as they have a wonderful customer support service.

[Q] List of problems in Galaxy S3 I9300, international version

I purchased my SGS3 about 4 months ago from the middle-east.
I have a series of problems (possibly problems cause I am new to Android phones). I am listing them down here in hope that someone will tell me how to solve them.
The flash of blue
This happened once or twice about a month ago. Whenever I pressed the power button to unlock the phone, the complete screen went solid blue for a flash of a second and then I saw the flower on the home screen.
Is this a hardware issue ? Signs of failing hardware ?
The home screen redraw / lag issue
When I press the home button to exit an app, say Chrome, the screen re-draws itself. The icons take some time to show up back on the screen.
Initially I thought it was related to cache being full. However, cleaning it using ES Task Manager was of no help. The re-drawing continues.
I also disabled the SVoice on double-click home button. No
I saw a YouTube video which says that there is a bug fix but it is available only for UK phones.
Here is the video: /watch?v=5uYw3mVhiuY
Again, is it a failing GPU ?
The grainy screen
Title says it all. The screen seems to be grainy. The grains seems to be more visible under low brightness and on grayish backgrounds. I tested the screen using the screen tester that comes with ES Task Manager. When the color goes to whitish-gray, I can see the grains. They are in bands - horizontal and vertical.
Low quality display
This is not related to grainy screen. This is related to the pulling down of notification menu.
I happened to pull it down slowly while goofing around.
I noticed that the quality of the display gradually reduces as I pull it down. When my finger is near the last one-third of the screen, I see that blue color gets split into bands. A little further down, it looks like the background is some very low quality image.
The bit depth seems to be reducing, if that is a proper term.
Low RAM even on idle
Even when I use ES Task Manager to kill the apps, all I usually have remaining is 323 MB of the 800 MB of RAM that is there in the phone.
Why ?
Lag when opening settings
There is also a lag when I open different settings from settings menu.
If I click on the battery settings, there is a visible lag before the actual battery information pop up.
I know that was a lot of rant but being a beginner, I have no clue how to go about solving any of these.
Thanks for reading.
I hope you can help me solve most of these. If not, please let me know if I should return the phone to Samsung.
As for usage, very light use for casual gaming, web browsing, YouTube videos, reading books.
I haven't dropped the phone at all nor have I modded it in any way.
I have tested it using AnTuTu and it gives my phone 16000+ points. Does that indicate phone is fine ?

No i am saying read and understand the basics first .as you dont have a clue
Then search for your problems .
Or take the phone to s service centre and let them see multiple problems .
Though your warranty is initially with the seller Samsung warranty is an extra limited warranty .

this happens for everyone no matter what! this just appears randomly and this isn't any problem so far!

it depends mostly on the background processes! the less they are, the less the lag will be.
I saw a YouTube video which says that there is a bug fix but it is available only for UK phones.
Here is the video: /watch?v=5uYw3mVhiuY
this firmware is way too old buddy! it's 4.0.4! we are already nearer to 4.3! the XXEMG4 and the later firmwares are the latest and there is much less lag when you press the home button like redrawing of apps.
Again, is it a failing GPU ?
The grainy screen
Title says it all. The screen seems to be grainy. The grains seems to be more visible under low brightness and on grayish backgrounds. I tested the screen using the screen tester that comes with ES Task Manager. When the color goes to whitish-gray, I can see the grains. They are in bands - horizontal and vertical.
can't answer this! i have no such problems.
Low quality display
This is not related to grainy screen. This is related to the pulling down of notification menu.

this never happened to me and never been reported so far.

Even when I use ES Task Manager to kill the apps, all I usually have remaining is 323 MB of the 800 MB of RAM that is there in the phone.
Why ?
more free ram? try rooting and use greenify

Possible Red Tint Fix

Hey Guys, happy new Year to everyone !
Maybe i found a soulution for people like me, where facing Red/Pink Issues on there Note 8. Specially for people, that want to use Amoled-Kino Screen mode.
For me, the Issue looks like, when i activate Amoled Kino- My Screen Colors get low down, like when you put out 50 % saturation and contrast plus a Red Tint. Anyway, Samsung offers a Software Fix with Adaptive Mode for Display and you can regulate with 3 Sliders to correct your Color. But how ever i set the Values, the Colors in Adaptive Mode are very cold and its sad when i lay down my Note beside my old S7 Edge. Special with activated Kino Mode.
So i searched a few Days in the Web and found a App called : ''ColorModeChancer''. This simple App does nothing else, then to Set the Values for Red/Green/Blue and Contrast/Saturation manual. When i understand the Dev right, it talks to the Kernel and maybe the Screen Configuration for Colors/Saturation and Contrast is load from Kernel and not for Example from another File or Script from System itself. But im no Dev and maybe i talk Bull**** how it exactly works Ask the Dev by yourself or Read Playstore Description. Maybe you understand it better then me. I just wann guide you all to maybe solve the Red Tint Problem.
Steps to install:
You need to be Rooted.
''To avoid using one App for "setting last saved value without open any window" and another one for "open Settings window" I choosed this App behavior:
1) run the App
2) first run ONLY sets last saved value
3) next launches within 30 seconds will open the Settings
4) subsequent launches within 30 seconds will do #3
5) if 30 seconds are passed, the next launch will do #2'' > Description copied from Playstore
6) (From me): Set Cinema Mode in the App and everything is good, you have now a correct configuratet screen with Amoled Kino Mode how it should work
Bugs :
Maybe you get a little Bit of Lag when you scroll down in Apps like Facebook or Instagram. For me, i solved it with cache cleaning for these Apps. Anyway it works like Charm for me.
The App costs around 50 Cent, was orignal made for non Samsung Stock Roms like Linage, Cyanogen etc. where dont have the Option in Settings, to set the Samsung Screen Modes like Amoled Kino.
I dont Link the Playstore Link here, because the App costs Money and i dont want to make advertising for the Dev or anyone else. Just want to share this Guide/Workaround for interested people with the same issues as me. One more Time, the App calls ''ColorModeChanger'' and it is aviable on the Playstore.
Further i Emaild with Samsung and they swear that the Screen Problem is a Software issue and not a Hardware Problem from the Screen itself. After that, i found this App and now i believe that Samsung tlaks the tings right, before i dondt believe that it is only Software Problem. Anyway, it works for me and the result is AMAZING
Have Fun & Good Luck ! :fingers-crossed:

Anyone having issues with Firefox browser?

I'm having some screen issues with Firefox. Sometimes the bottom of the screen goes black and the tabs at the top disappear. By using split screen mode I can repair this but it does seem to come back regularly. Strangely enough I can replicate this behavior by using the volume down button (wtf?) when a video is playing on a website. It seems some kind of screen resolution thing, in Firefox it's reported as 1195x747x24 but in Chrome I see 1205x753x24.
Is anyone else having these screen issues with Firefox, and am I right in thinking that it is Firefox that somehow gets the resolution wrong and that that's the cause? Why its also related to the volume button is beyond me.

I don't know the answer, sorry, but curious if you've tried the jelly (for lineage) browser? You can find the apk by searching xda if you didn't know.
I ask about that because jelly is using the system html rendering, so it may work and be very minimalist. Aside from that, and hope u don't mind my asking, why not use apps when available? I'd expect the app for netflix etc to be able to function no issues. If not, there should be support from them. But ff not playing a video properly? not sure there's much support available for that?
Have you automatic screen resolution adjustment checked or free form mode activated (as indicated by me in that thread) via adb?
(When free form was activated I realized similar behavior in free form apps)
I found out that Firefox beta doesn't have this issue, so I presume whatever it is it'll be fixed in the next release of Firefox.
Screen issue is fixed now with the update., Firefox working the way it should now.
I presume other screen issues with video playing like people have reported with vlc will also be fixed.
