Can the vibration strength be increased on the stock kernel more than the default maximum? I downloaded 2 apps that have the ability to decrease this but not increase it. Just curious if this is possible without a custom kernel.
Thanks to anyone who attends to this question.

i thought i responded for this question somewhere. Yes, i use faux123 app and i am able to adjust the vibration strength on stock kernel.
ok here is a screen shot of the vibration control on the faux app.

first time i was using the re-designed app, i did not find the options, the slide out menu is on the left, you can swipe from the left to get to it.

Thank you for replying, yes you already did reply. And I followed up to you reply. But, I downloaded this app and navigated to that setting. The app has it already set at 100%. The app does not increase the vibration beyond 100%. You can only reduce the vibration strength with the app.

OK been using adj brightness in the market and it was brilliant in brightness control. Unfortunately it doesn't work on the galaxy s2 and because my eyes play up, am finding the phone to bright for me especially when using it at night when lights are off, what alternatives are their to lower the brightness level please.?
For Amoled screens of any type "Screen Filter" seems to be the best.
I agree. Screen Filter seems to be excellent and can make the screen as dark as you ever want. (to a level that no LCD can ever go to imo)
Thanks guys it worked it is the best av seen so far.
I got mine sgs2 on Saturday and hadn't really thougth I would need an App to control this, the settings ont he power widget were good enough for me. However, I tried this out for a laugh and it works well. Will definitely use it at night time.
Although at the moment I am just enjoying the super brightness
Birghtness control from the notification bar
Can one still adjust the brightness by swiping the finger along the notification bar, like one did on the i9000?
Can one disable the automatic brightness from somewhere in the settings menu on the i9100 in the same way as the i9000?
Yep, same thing works in the SGSII.

Your location is marked as London, so I think that you ought to be able to write a non-nonsensical sentence in English. No offence, but this is unintelligible!

Hi Crypticc,
You misunderstood what I wrote.
1) I referred to a partially completed sentence:
" How I just tried dropped down and not" - not what?
2) You have confused the verb 'to swipe' with an application called Swype.
As I noted, you wrote your location was from London, yet that you are not a native anglophone; No problem, but I was a little confused in the beginning.
To summarize: Your reply confused me. You partially clarified what you wrote, and now I understand. Thank-you.
* Back on topic
In order to change the brightness by swiping along the notification bar, please ensure that you have turned off the automatic brightness adjustment setting in the menu. I do not recall the exact name. Then, it should work.
I think that this can be found in : Settings -> Display -> Brightness
Best regards.

I tried rather than did that's the problem
( swype just replaced swipe with swype - oh and it replaced a few other words too).
That said, thanks for the tips folks; both on previewing/reviewing posts, plus on how to swipe to change the brightness.
What would you all suggest be the optimal brightness setting to put the phone on?

As the title says my GFs 10.1 will go full brightness at random times. Only way to change it back is to go into setting. The slider is all the way down but have to slide it to full then back down. Any ideas guys?
The fix is: Go TO SETTINGS, SCREEN, AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER, UNCHECK. Thanks bd85!

I have had this issue as well when using auto brightness function. Only when viewing photo albums. Very annoying. I no longer use the auto brightness function now. Little issues like this drive me crazy. Add this to the keyboard lag and other small issues and i start to question the purchase.
Thankfully i found this site to help me realize its not just me...misery loves company. Lol.
Have you guys tried to shut off the option in setting that's can analyze the screen color and more and the adjust the screen for power savings.
I have noticed what you are mention. And it only appears in movie's because the picture change often so the tab tried to compensate the colors often.
Go TO SETTINGS, SCREEN, AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER, UNCHECK.
And I am not talking about the auto brightness that you can access from clicking on the lower right part of your screen

That seemed to be it. Didn't think to check that since the Xoom doesn't have that setting. One thing i wish the xoom had was the whole different wallpaper for lock screen thing the 10.1 has.
Hey guys,
I'm having trouble understanding the autobrightness settings in CM7. I'm fine with the level of brightness it makes, it just takes too long to kick in. I've tried messing with the settings, but to no avail.
I use widgetlocker and worked hard to make my lock screen look cool. I can barely see it whn I turn the phone on because of the brightness.
Any info would be greatly appreciated!

for some reason the auto bright function on all AOSP roms is screwy. i just disabled auto and manually raised it up enough to where its acceptable to me.
Eh, I just set up my own brightness profiles in Tasker.

I would try doing what this guy did. The settings there should give you fairly decent auto settings.

At night even at 0% brightness I find the phone too bright and would like a way to lower it. I also think the minimum volume level is too loud to be comfortable in a quiet room and would like a method to lower that as well. My last request is a technique to seperate ringtone and notification volume levels. If any of these are actually possible through MODs without hobbled fixes by apps in the Play Store, I would love it! I'm running a modded stock non-deodexed ROM with unlocked bootloader and ROOT. Please help and thanks!

to lower the autobrightness values, everything is in /system/framework/framework-res.apk - res/values/arrays.xml

Thanks for the reply! Will modifying these values enable the phone to go lower than the stock 0% brightness? I don't use auto brightness and keep my DNA at 0% brightness most of the time, only going higher in sunlight.

I don't know if you'll consider this a "hobbled app" fix, but I've been using Power Toggles to substitute for my CM habit.
You can adjust notification and ringtone volumes from the notification drawer that way.

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it out and while it does have separate sliders for the two volumes, it does NOT actually work. The two volumes are still tied together in practice. After ICS I think I've read its linked at a system or kernel level and I was hoping someone might work on a fix to address this. Also, referring to "hobbled" app fixes, I saw an app that used a workaround by switching to a custom ringtone to adjust that volume separately but was hoping for a streamlined system built in mod so that I don't have any extraneous apps or screens to delve into to adjust settings. I like minimalistic and debloat anything I dont use. Thanks again for the feedback.
i agree 100% with the sound being too loud, which has been an issue since ICS on even the Rezound...so i think their whole upgrade of the newer OS's made the volume louder. the rezound, on lowest sound level, was 20%..that's ridiculous, it should be half that, or around like 5%. even changing volume steps never worked because there was no lower volume.
For some reason I see the brightness changes automatically in certain apps.
The auto brightness is off and set to full.
The brightness dims in the following screens:
1. Open original browser it dims , if entering web address it is back to full. Chrome does not encounter same problem
2. Original samsung mail app (not GMAIL) dims. If writing a new mail (reply/forward) it goes back up.
The brightness in the browser settings is set to full (not auto).
I tried to find an answer on the web but could not find. It drives me crazy!!!
Must say that I have the phone for 3 months and it started only a few days ago.
the only thing I can remember is that I was on WIFI and it started to update apps but how can I know what was changed and [email protected]#$ed my brightness control?
I assume that you're using a stock (or stock-based) ROM. Try to enter settings and deactivate the power saving mode if it's enabled. Then reboot - just to be sure - and look if the issue is gone.
Can't think of anything else at the moment...
Hope it helps
In stock browser disable auto brightness setting.

I can't believe I missed it. I've tried brightness in stock browser, tried battery saving from brightness menu.
I just didn't notice the toggle of battery saving in the main menu.
Thanks...
Hah, nice to hear that youe problem has been solved
