Hi guys! is there any mod out there that can be used as a switch to obtain max brightness apart from stepping into the sunlight? ?

i want too
Now that I've had the phone over a week I guess it's not a good idea. The phone gets hot normally so I guess they have restricted to not have a Note 7 episode, I suppose ?*
YES, it is not a good idea. If max brightness runs for a longer duration, it will definitely do serious damage to the battery

I have ongoing problems with eyestrain. Back-lit screens seem to be the issue. Have you found the SGS2 better or worse in regard to eyestrain, if this is an issue for you. I would really like the SGS2, but I may go with the Sensation if its screen may be better for me. Is max brightness on the SGS2 bearable? Reducing brightness seems to increase flicker on LED screens.
Does the job very nicely,

Is it possible to keep SGS2 brightness at max and then use this app on top to make it appear darker? Or is Screen Filter just a replacement for the SGS2 brightness control that allows further dimming than minimum, or does it work differently?
Thanks
I havent noticed flicker on the S2's screen on normal usage unless I open up specific test patterns for flickering like this site
http://www.techmind.org/lcd/
It of course is to dimming it over min brightness for easier night reading without any sort of strain, haven't used with Max brightness as even 25% is too bright for me for normal usage and then that app with Auto brightness for night readings/browsing
Regards.

Oh. I thought maybe it worked differently since on the app description it talks about applying a "shade" over the screen.
It might work for me if it did not actually dim the LED, but "filtered" the information to be displayed so that it came out less bright. I don't know how exactly that would work, and I guess if this "software" dimming was available then manufacturers would already be using it.
I've decided to go with the HTC Sensation. I figure that the SGS2 will either be the worst or the best phone in regards to eye strain, and it's not worth the risk. Kind of bummed out since I had my heart set on the SGS2 but hey everyone keeps saying that they're both great phones.
Both phone are great but i dont seem to experience eye strain on sgs2 seems good to me...imho
Hey guys
Can you tell me please what is your average battery usage with display on ?(measured with current widget)
Thanks in advance.

Im getting 115-142mA with the phone idling with the display on with wifi on.
With data enabled/wifi off it jumps to over 200mA.
Having Bluetooth on but not paired didnt seem to make any difference in battery consumption.
Having GPS on but not in use also showed no increase in battery consumption. However, having gps in use (had navigation running in background) caused the battery to spike to almost 400 before settling around the low/mid 200mA range.

Thanks for answer
What is your brightness level?
What about data/wifi/gps off and brightness set to ~40%?
Sorry if i'm bugging you with so many questions,but i have a HTC HD Mini and i'm running a ported Android from sd card and i'm trying to figure out how is the battery life compared to the original

If I turn data/wifi/gps off and put brightness to somewhere between 30-40% approximately it sits between 91-98mA. My original posts were made with auto brightness on.
And its no bother. Takes seconds to adjust settings and I just left the phone sit for 5mins with display on.

Thanks again mate,I appreciate that
Well..with the above settings I have ~150mA,so the difference is 50mA,not bad (hope devs will get rid of this difference )
What do you guys have your Brightness set to??? Mine is Half. Even tho i wanna make it Full brightness. But that may do something bad for the screen being that bright all the time. You think?

The only thing it will effect is battery performance. I have mine set to about 75% as I don't like the auto brightness
Yea..i was wondering how bad it would affect it. My battery lasts a long while. I should just test it.
Plus..my inner knowledge of this Tab isnt so good. Like..on a laptop..if you have the brightness jacked up to high..you could burn out your backlight. What will happen in terms of this GTab if you have it up to high?

The back light on the gTab display is LED vs the cfl backlight. LEDs should last longer than cfl and don't decrease light output with age as cfl tends to do.

Thanks alot for your help bro. So you think if i used it at full brightness...nothing bad really will happen? Cept maybe kill battery life. I have mine at 75% now like you. Should be good enough.
The screen dims and changes brightness by itself so much I am contemplating just turning it up and leaving it.
Any thoughts to this, and does it drain your battery super quick?
Seems a waste of the SLCD 2 to have so dim and changing brightness all the time

If you plan on disabling brightness just keep in mind if your an outdoors user or indoors user, the lighting around you will play a key roll on what levels of lighting you decide to have.
Personally I have the Automatic setting enabled, but I keep a widget (via widgetsoid) handy so I can disable it when I want and how I want on the fly.

Max brightness will definitely have an adverse effect on batt life. I personally keep mine at about 40% which is fine except when im in direct sunlight.

I know what you mean, I tried doing the same because I got sick of the brightness changes all the time, but after a couple of days having to adjust it myself or compromise on batt life, I decided to go back to Automatic settings... In my life I go to much outdoors as I can spend hole days indoors its what ever happens, happens so I decided to stick with the annoying setting other than being annoyed by having to set it myself.
Screen brightness is the biggest contributor to battery drain. I keep mine as dim as possible at all times. I've unfortunately become quite OCD about it.

I'm the same way. But the problem I have with this phone is that the more dimmer I make it, the more uglier the whites become (which I have become OCD about).
So I have double OCD working against each other and my brain is going to explode. That is all. Carry on.
Ok; the phone has been out a few months. Anyone's opinions changed?
I generally keep screen auto-brightness OFF, and set it to about 60% to 70% brightness static. When plugged into power to watch video, I go to 100%.

+1 for Auto and a widget. Most of my use happens at the extremes - OFF or 100%, so this provides easy switching.
I keep mine down around 10%, and only use autobrightness when outdoors
hi guys, i have just got the phone, but i think is overheating too early. What is the idle temperature of yours? mine is approx 39-40, but for example, if i download 2 or 3 apps, then it goes 50+.
Is it normal?
I don't have any problem of heat on mine, just when it's on charge yes but it because of quick charge so... I didn't check the temperature but everything seems alright even in game ?

Hi,
I took this phone to be able to compare it to the OP3. They offer more or less the same specs for about the same price, with some pros (slightly bigger screen, 2k display) and cons (no jack, lack of support in Europe, battery ?).
The LeEco doesn't really go hot. Even under heavy load, it goes only mildly warm. But it is in fact much warmer than the OP3 used in the same conditions (same apps, same TPU cover). But in every circumstance, it is much cooler than, i.e. my Nexus 5.
Regards.

ok, but whats the "secure" range of temperature? i use cpu-z and sometimes i see under heavy load 60,65 deegrres. Is it safe?

Hi skoulikios13,
Can't really tell... but those kinds of value do not seem out of range for me.
Then again, I'm more used to Dual Xeon CPU in my computer... and those go slightly hotter when I am compiling my own ROM
Of course, I think you do not need to worry...
If your device goes too hot, it'll throttle at first, and in worst case force itself to shut down.
Regards.

No issues here i have mine for a week now. After 10 or more rounds of Antut it stays around 39.

-------------------------------
No temperature problems.
in operation 27-35 °C
in flash 40-50°C
LeEco Le max. 2 6/64 GB
My le max2 in operation go go 50°C too, i have to downclock it to 1200 MHz to have 38/39°C i think this is not normal...
