[Q] Smart scroll issues. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I cant seem to get the smart scroll feature to work. I turn it on but nothing works. And even tho I have smart stay off and auto brightness off, my screen still seems to dim sometimes. Any thoughts on what the issue could be?

Screen won't sleep while plugged in

My screen stays on when plugged to a charger or the computer, is anyone else having this problem? It seems like it just started happening all of a sudden

Go under app settings, development, and make sure the keep screen on option is off.

Do you have the option ticked not to turn off screen when charging? If the phone is in debug mode and you flick open the notification menu, you can change some debug settings. One of them being screen sleep while charging.
Sorry to hijack the post, but I love my screen being on while plugged-in but is there a way to prevent it from dimming. I want it to stay at max without dimming, and it drives me crazy.
thanks

Netflix light?

Whenever I watch netflix on my note the menu soft key lights never turn off. Does this happen with any body else and is there a way to turn them off?

Only way to turn them off is going to phone settings and display and then touch lights and click never.

You could use screen filter from the market and leave the filter super high and check the soft key back light toggle
The theater leaves them on so you can get to the restroom safely.

Pinching The Home Screen

I don't have that app.
Its got to be a system setting
Accessibility->Services->TalkBack => Set to 'Off'.
A known issue in Android with Accessibility apps (such as 'Light flow') is that the Talkback is turned back on even tough it should be off.

Stock/rooted ICS Sense, way to disable soft key backlight?

My phone's softkeys have started to fail and as such, I've started using an on screen replacement. What I'd like to do now is make it so the backlight for the soft keys stays off, or even better, if I can somehow completely disable them from responding to touch as well... Maybe a build.prop edit or something? They work just sporadically enough to be annoying at this point...
I use root dim from the market. Sometimes you have to set it again, but works pretty well

Kernel Tuner allows you to adjust the brightness as well.
Cool thanks guys.
What app are you using to replace the soft keys, because I have the same problem.

Landscape lockscreen?

I would love to attach a screenie.....but it happens so randomly and only lasts a second.
Im presuming that the function is built in because the screen doesnt look all messed up. So does anyone know how to turn Landscape lockscreen on?
Ove looked through the setting but cant see anything? Perhaps im just being a tard?

Android at its core can support a landscape lockscreen. There are a few apps out there that force rotation even when the app doesn't think it should support it. For example, the Netflix app is ALWAYS portrait when in the menu and ALWAYS landscape during video playback, but I used to use an app called "Ultimate Rotation Control", and it allowed it to do the menu in landscape and the video in portrait. I think the same sort of thing would work for you here, but I must admit that it's been a long time since I've used a lockscreen, so I don't know for sure.
Thanks. Ill take a look.
