I can't help you on that specific issue, but I may be able to offer a work around. I've had trouble with the light levels on my SGS3 and using Lux has completely resolved it. Not only does it have pretty good automatic settings, but it allows you to assign specific light levels based on the ambient lighting level.

There's an app called display brightness that also gives you that option with a slider you could put anywhere you want

Thanks I will try each and see which I like.

[Q] LED Flash not working. Help!

LED flash does not work. I have reset the phone already but nothing. Any ideas??
BUMPY BUMP.
What exactly have you tried to conclude it is not working?

Well, I tried taking pictures with flash and nothing.
Hmm. Phone charged? There is no disabled hidden option somewhere? Well I am sure you already looked into these easy things, you are a senior member here
Hopefully some one with an SGS2 in hand can help you. It would suck to have to send it back to UK. I suggest you contact the seller soon, to get whatever authorization for return they require, before it is too late. You can meanwhile keep looking into the issue.
I've tried mine and 'Auto Flash' does not appear to be working - when the flash is set to 'On' it works fine on mine??
Anyone else apart from the two of us with this issue?

With auto flash the device only uses flash when it thinks it needs it....
Guess you figgered that out yourself also
Download a torch app from the market and try it to see if your led is ok, if so it must be a software problem.

Ok, you didn't mention it. I thought you did, but can't be sure here on the forum (not personal).
Must be some sensor failure i think.
Best still to check the obvious i guess ;-)
Surprised more people haven't mentioned it though

Has anyone tried it on the newest leaked ODIN rom?
I guess I will have to return it for an exchange. Man, that sucks tail!!! They're currently in back order.
Just downloaded the Vignette camera app and Auto Flash works.fine so its not the sensor.
Wonder if there's a bug in the standard camera app?

Just tried that. No luck. This is very frustrating. I may try flashing one of those firmwares from samfirmware.com
get the free tesla light app from the market (the icon looks like an energy saving light bulb)
It should work fully and instantly
Tesla won't work either. I wonder if it is hardware or software related problem. Is there a link for an unlocked SGS 2 stock ROM version to download?

I followed the debranding guide in the dev section and replaced my O2 rom and now camera auto flash works fine.

What's up with the screen?

Before I go rooting & maybe flashing my phone is there something wrong with it. I've been reading a while & see it may be a bad phone or its the auto brightness being on. I compare it to my captivate & its not as vibrant. Like when I open this app its brown instead of the tan on my cappy. I see I can change the display settings on a few of these roms like unnamed, will that fix it? Also I did the ota update to 2.3.6 before I realized I shouldn't. Guess I can't just root it anymore huh?

Go to settings. Display. Toggle Auto-brightness on or off.
I get that part I meant the settings that has something to do with with the auto brightness sensor. It just seems a bit dim in the same light vs. a sense ROM

I believe this is something with MIUI. It's been like that on this phone with every revision I've ran. Either set your Brightness to a desired level or deal with the low auto for now until/if they can fix that.

Stock app question

I have been working to restore a US GP-70 to stock using info from multiple sources.
I think I'm pretty much there. But can someone with a stock US Player 5.0 tell me if they have the app My Files?
Also does it have Auto Brightness under settings/Display/Brightness?
If your looking to restore, try flashing the system dump of the device found here: (Refer to this threat by clicking here!)
I'm already restored. I jus wanted to know about My Files and. Auto Brightness.

1.Yes
2. Nothing that says auto brightness, did you mean power saving mode?
The device is sold now but when you go to change brightness there was no check box for auto brightness like on all my other android devices. That's what I was asking about.

[Q]Landscape keyboard on Badseed Tranquil ROM

Just flashed the Badseed Tranquil ROM last night and noticed today that when I'm in landscape there is an empty space on the right of the keyboard. I can see through to the app behind the keyboard. Is that supposed to be like that or is there a way to fix it? Also I'm getting some reasonable lag while I'm using the keyboard that I didn't get before. Any help would be great.

I flashed using twrp and came from Hatka Supreme if that helps at all. I'm also having problems in the extended settings with the kernel options. Won't let me set tweaks on boot. Dunno if that's a Rom issue or kernel issue though. I'm running cubed but might switch back to beast. Thought cubed would help cuz since I installed roms my car charger won't charge the phone. Gives me the notification error message.

Try a clean flash. Dirty flashes are going to cause issues.

When I got hone from work I wiped everything and flashed from the beginning. Then the keyboard worked, then I put all my apps back on, went to send a txt and therer it was again. So I went into every app that I could use the keyboard on and discovered the empty space is only there in certain apps. My stock messaging and stock browser are fine but gosms and xda and chrome have the empty space by the keyboard. Really disappointing cuz I absolutely love the Rom otherwise. Blue is my favorite color and especially that color blue lol. My case and even my car is that shade blue hahaha. See if that problem happens with anyone else and if it ends up getting fixed in an update I will surely be switching back!

This is a Kernel issue , I suggest BeastMode 5.9 , and you set the options you want in aroma . If you want to change things on the fly feel free to try another kernel , CP's kernel for example .

That is so confusing. Maybe I was wrong and chrome wasn't one. I was trying to remember from last night lol. I know gosms definitely was one though cuz I send so many txts. Give it a try and if it doesn't do it for you then maybe it's an app that I installed that's making it do that. I also have lmt pie installed and that works from that side of the screen so it could possibly be that.

Ok I see what you are talking about , I tested on newts Rom and joelz rom and it seems to be a go sms issue as it does it on them too .

Damn gosms! That's giving me issues with the floating notifications app too. Guess I might have to switch. I just hate the stock app so much and I dunno if any others out there have the privacy box with gesture lock like go has. Hmm will have to do some digging. Also do you know if the problem I'm having with my car charger saying it's unsupported on my phone is a kernel issue or Rom issue?

Ok thank you so much for the help! Once I find a txt messaging app that will function the way I want it to and work with the Rom I will definitely be switching back. Any plans for put PA's Halo on your Rom in the future? That would be awesome. Just saying lol
