Wondering if anyone knows where I can obtain a utility or hack to adjust the automatic brightness settings? In a dark or dim room, the brightness on auto is much higher than I need.
There were a few hacks available for windows smartphones to do this, but I haven't found any for Android/HTC. Found one specifically for the droid-x but don't think it works for us.
Been wondering on something like this also

CM7 has options to fine tune how auto brightness works.
^ Shift Faced
confirmed to work for me. I've adjusted mine in CM7 just the way I like.
Question to somebody else who has done it. Is it showing 1 colum having -1 on the buttons box? I noticed only one setting I cant turn off the 4 bottom lights because it doesnt let you change the -1 to a 0...
is there any guides i could read on how to set it all up? i have no idea what everything mean in that menu.

I'm right along with you. I just looked at it and then slowly backed out because I didn't want to mess anything up and I'm usually all for pressing buttons to see what happens.

I'll bump for this as well. I've always wanted to understand how to adjust the auto brightness in CM7, but I've searched around and haven't found any info on it.
On the run

Yeah, I was saying that a developer had to add the option. I'd expect it to be there for the custom roms, once they start appearing.

It was really annoying me so I did some searching and I found this thread.
Code:

Basically if you use titanium back up, you can just freeze or delete "com.htc.htcpowermanager" and it'll disappear.
I just thought I'd share with you guys, credit goes to to the guy who found this in the link above, I'm just passing it on.
EDIT: Freezing or deleting it will both cause your battery menu in settings to disappear. This isn't really an issue to me as there isn't really anything in there that you can do, besides see whats' eating your battery. IMO this is negligible especially when new roms will be rolling out soon, hopefully with a work around.
Wouldn't delete it just in u may need it later. Freezing is the best option for all annoying system apps. Thanks for sharing the link tho.

Read the edit I just made to the OP.
In JB you can long-tap on a notification and click on App Info. I did a Force Stop there, notification went away. Hopefully there are no other side effects. If there are any, I will report them.
LOL 5 minutes later, and it's back. And you cannot uncheck "Show Notifications"
I used this to get rid of mine. Think its a good alternative.

I have had mine turned off since I loaded the Rom and its still there. If we could just unlock the show notification option maybe that would turn off the one minor annoyance.
Is there documentation on what the power saver function specifically does?

Can't you just edit default.xml in system/customize/resource/MNS/ ? Of course on a clean boot, but that'sbetter then losing functions to me.

Same here. I'm mostly against it because I don't know why I'd ever need it. It might actually be useful but if it does x y and z and I only want x and y I'd like to know what I'm getting into.
I can't believe no one noticed it yet but if you go to the app info there is a check box for notifications, just uncheck it and it goes away

Mine won't toggle neither. I have tried with power save mode enabled and disabled as well as from safe mode.
That's the first place I went and mine is grayed out also.
Thought I'd share. For those of you that are looking for an alternative to the power button LED for missed notifications, XDA just featured an app called Buttonled by GermainZ. Basically, it turns your hard buttons into your led.
Thanks to ewcrider, if you prefer the red power button LED in place of the capacitive buttons, use the first file path on the list, led:red, instead of button-backlight/brightness.
Been using it for a couple hours and it's working great, so far.
Make sure to enable in accessibility.
Find the apk and give all thanks to GermainZ at the link below.

Thanks for sharing. Are you using the HDPI or MDPI version? Sorry if this is a noob question but I don't know what those mean. :silly:
This should also be able to control the power button LED if you desire.

Thanks I'll try that. Btw checking the app under aspect ratio correction makes it fullscreen I discovered.

I really like the red. Changing the flash intervals works with this app so I'm happy as a clam now. Couldn't stand the long off delay or whatever it's called, haha.
I saw this in the XDA Twitter feed. It's exactly what I've been looking for.

After my second install I no longer get a laggy app. Might help you too?
Wow amazing find. Thanks for sharing.
Here is how I set it up, if anyone wants to know. This works just like BLN.
Pick the /sys/devices/platform/msm_ssbi.0/pm8921-core/pm8xxx-led/button-backlight/brightness PATH. (Should be the second one)
I set Turn LED on for 7200 (Which, if my math doesn't suck, should be two hours.)
Then I set Turn LED off for 0
Finally I hit, Enable ButtonLED in accessibility. (This took a while to pull up, I recommend doing it yourself through the settings)

Can you clarify a little more what that does. I figure it leaves the backlight on for two straight hours?

That's about it. Basically, if I am awake I will see if there is a notification within the two hours. But if I'm asleep I don't want the capacitive LEDs on for the whole 8 or so hours I sleep. I also don't want them to pulse or turn off if there is a notification. Two hours just seemed like a good medium.
Any way to disable this without a third party lockscreen app rooted I've tried tweaksbox but no option

Halfway down the second post you will see a clean lockscreen with no emergency call button. Flash that zip file. I am on sprint as well and it works no problem. All I did was wipe dalvik and cache and flashed it.

I can't screenshot the lockscreen. I just tried all of the ways to unlock the device and they all work. I've had no issues since I did it. If your weary of doing it just make a nandroid and try it and if you have issues revert to your nandroid. I've also done thisbeverytime I have flashed a new rom.

That's odd for a couple of weeks it wouldn't let me do it using the power volume down together method until I installed tweaksbox. But in tweaksbox you can have the advanced power menu with the torch and screenshot in it

I always saw this as a way for someone else to call 911 in the event you're incapacitated. But I guess since pretty much everyone has a cell phone now, it's not really necessary.
