So I, at first, thought Assertive wasn't working/enabled on my V20 but it turns out the stock settings are just pathetic. I spent some time adjusting the config file and had a few fellow V20 users test out my changes and they have all reported back that it works fantastically now.
For Assertive to function, your phone MUST be set to 'automatic' backlight control.
Decompress and copy my file to your phone and replace the calib.cfg located in /system/media/display/. Make sure to change the permissions on the replacement file to 644.
Reboot and enjoy
Test out in direct, bright sunlight. You'll be surprised.
Let me know your results in the poll and in comments.
Thank you for your work brother
what does this do exactly?

Assertive Display was designed by APICAL. They are owned by Qualcomm and Qualcomm has built the tech into their SoCs.
Basically, it adjusts the gamma curve, white balance, contrast, etc. of the display based on intensity and amount of ambient light. It can take a display that would be utterly crushed by sunlight and make it readable.
Try it out.

This is a great MOD. Thank you OP for messing around with this for us! Great work! Looking forward to a few tweaks to optimize it, but works great!!!
The problem I have is in low light environment. Screen goes to zero as soon as the light gets dimmed. I can't think of any environment that I would want the screen at zero. That's just too dark for my old eyes

I've search for both "screen" and "brightness" without any results.
Is there anything we can do about the brightness of the screen? It's very low, even if you have it on max. Is it a hardware or software issue?
I've seen a lot of reporst of bad screen brightness, but can't say I've ever experienced a problem. I had more issues with my HTC desire, I could barely see it outside on a cloudy day. The XP I can see fine most of the time.
What are you using to turn the brightness up/down? There is a widget to turn it up and down, but it only makes it go up to 175 (iirc). I use power manager. This changes my brightness depending on different scenarios. Similar to juice defender type things but a lot more basic. The best part of it is the screen timeout and brightness settings.

Thanks,but don't disable sensor :-(
Brightness don't change :-(
That's one of my problem also, the poor brightness of our phone, At first I thought there is an app to increase it, but there's none..
When im using it under the sun, I cant really see what I'm doing to my phone especially when there's my finger print all over my screen, so i always bring my cleaning cloth.
Yeah i have tried every app out there in hopes one would work but that sensor just has to much control i guess.
Hopefully someone will figure it out eventually.
I guess some people are not bothered by it at all so possibly the people who would know how to fix it just dont care enough to.
On the R800x, there is no auto-brightness to enable. It is all manual. 100% seems to be bright enough to read stuff outside in the sun. I don't know that there would be a way to push it even brighter.
A number of people have been claiming that if you remove the pre-installed screen protector it becomes a lot brighter. Maybe that might help you if you are willing to risk the screen scratches.

Yeah by removing the protector the screen becomes much more brighter.. The toughened glass seems to be holding up quite fine though.
For a short 30 seconds experience with factory superglued protector, all I can say is remove it. Much better light sensor response, better contrast and much much much better finger swipeability on the mineral glass under the plastic protector...
Also now as I have phone, I'll see how to disable LS.

I was talking to Doomlord the other day about this, the ALS seems to be part of the kernel. The exact location of the sensor parameters is /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0040/leds/lcd-backlight/als. You can edit those parameters but nothing sticks on save/exit.
If you want to see how crazy the ALS is, fire up logcat in adb and watch what happens when you pull the phone away from a bright light source.
The only problem is some people love the ALS, and some people hate it. I'm in the hate it camp. I'd rather be able to adjust full brightness manually. It would peg the CPU a lot less too in certain lighting conditions, actually improving performance.
To that end, wondering if there is some kind of kernel extension or module that can be flashed, or if it has to be the whole modified kernel that is replaced.

Problem: lightsensor and proximity are one device with one driver. So it'll have to be disabled in hw_config.sh

I tried to solve it through editing the hw_config file, but had the same problem of results not sticking/working correctly. Enable would switch to 0 for a limited time before switching back to 1, and definitely after a boot, but still seemed to be functional and operating as if it was enabled, i.e. the functionality appeared to happen more slowly than rapidly on the fly. Also, the 254 variable never stuck at all, so that test failed, heh.

I would imagine we could alter the settings.apk framework to include a checkbox to enable/disable Automatic mode for light sensor, and if off, revert to manual change. Is this a correct assumption? It might be easier for the end user than enabling and disabling a module at terminal prompt or yanking things from the system image or (heaven forbid) the running OS. It would certainly involve a bit more work, to be sure. However, could also just alter the framework to run insmod commands through BusyBox so that we can insert and remove modules. *shrugs* Just thoughts, not mandates. ^_^

Hi everyone.
I love the TrueSmart but I've got a problem with the screen.
There's a flicker on it. The whole screen flickers and it's particularly noticeable when the background is white or any other light colour.
Has anyone else experienced this and what are my chances of getting it fixed or replaced under warranty?
Thanks for any advice in advance,
HRH.

Now that's a helpful comment. Thank you. If I set the screen brightness to maximum then the flicker goes away. Not ideal, as I've never set any device to max brightness in my life. Never needed to. But at least the flicker goes away.
I just hope it doesn't make the rubbish battery life even worse.

Ah. I was thinking more in terms of down rather than up (but I didn't say so...). Indeed, it's bright in the first place and raising it will probably have an impact on battery life.
I think Lokifish reported some time ago that the screen was ridiculously over bright even at the minimum setting and that there was no change in brightness if raised over 50%.
I used Lux on mine to drop the brightness way into negative values. I have noticed no annoying flickering, but there were early reports of nasty flickering on some samples back last Fall.

Dude make only 1 thread for your problems. No need for 2.
It's image retention. I have it too but it's not a big deal. It's not permanent.
As for GPS, try rebooting your phone, or if you use a case, try without it, maybe the case is blocking the compass.

:laugh::laugh::laugh: you can try it. image retention can be solved with a blue light filter, light bleeding can only be fixed by replacing the screen. Both are common issues though with IPS LCD screens. (Notebook has it, tablet has it and phone as well)
The only thing I would really be bothered with is GPS. This made me send my G5 to LG and hopefully getting it fixed now.

You can even make the temperature back to 6600k and just change the shade to 0.102, this would solve the image retention permanently, i never had any image retention ever since.

Yes i know, it wasnt meant as a permanent solution, which is why i mentioned i have to keep doing it every so often. but it does get rid of it for a few days for me.
Can anyone show me an example of how text notifications and others will work with always on when you receive it, I am used to having a notification light and I want to make sure this isn't a deal breaker for me.
if you use always on display no notification led appared. icons of the notification appears in the top of clock
In terms of "alerting" you to the phone, definitely not as good as led lights, because from distance it looks the same whether you have a notification or not, and nothing really pops out at you when you get new notification. But I still prefer it because you can see all the notifications you have by simply looking at the screen without turning it on or pressing anything
Will AoD cause issues with screen burn in? Does it stay in the same place or does it move around? And if it moves around, does it move to random locations or does it stay in the same exact locations?

Stays in same spot - but of course notification icons and clock constantly changing it slightly. I dont think its an issue due to how dim it is. There is a setting to make it bright, but it warns of battery drain. I have no need to make it bright though.

I don't think so but if you cover the proximity sensor for around 15 seconds or so it turns off the display until it's not covered. I got into the habit of facing it face down to trigger it or covering the top part of the display with something

Don't think it can be done so yet. Something like double tap on the screen to wake would have been better than AOD all the time sucking battery.
I found a thing and I am currently trying it out. In the AOD settings you can adjust the brightness yourself (rather than leaving it on auto-brightness).
It has 4 levels. I have set it to level 2 (level 1 was almost not visible during day light).
Up to now I see much lower battery consumption from AOD. Will keep testing and report.

I did find one super cool option to help me solve this issue. Its buried deep in accessibility settings. Its the "interaction and dexterity option." It will allow you to wake the screen by waving your hand over it. Yes, this is deeply buried but one of the most useful features of the phone.
Sure, this is not what you are asking but I thought I would throw it out there so you have an option.
