Hi
I am using the JasJam WWE ROM. The screen is bright but not fully. When I switch to camera, for 1/2 a second the screen is fully iluminated and very bright. Than I lose it again. Does it happen with other ROMs? Can this be changed to get a full ilumination? I live in a very sunny country and it is sometimes really annoying.

I noticed this on the HTC ROM...i am running the imate ROM now and the same thing. I figured it was that if you ran with the screen on UBER bright like on camera you may drain the battery BIG TIME.

You can try Vijay's VJLumosII:

Most probably it will work on TyTN too, but I haven't tried it.

Well this software actually works but I have to start it manually every time. It makes no sense. Therefore I added it to the Startup folder but that is not good as it is not letting the camera to start saying that "camera is already running". Any idea?

In VJLumosII web page:

Use -off to disable it (eg before starting the camera)

And I think you don't need to place it in startup manually, also from the webpage:

VJLumos II can install a notifcation event, so that every time you switch on the Phone, you will automatically get SuperBrite.

VJLumos II was written for the Magician, for which it works great.
It has been tested on the Universal, but briefly, and it superbrites the screen, but unfortunately you can only do it once (I think).

It does, kinda, work on the Hermes, will make the screen brighter (so I hear). However, the Hermes has the same problem, and I haven't had a chance to fix it, because I never used the Universal long term, and don't have Hermes, sniff.

But I'll fix it. Even-shwally.

Dears

I’m suffering from the same problem with my i-mate JasJam,
The screen is not bright enough.

I check the VJLumos II solution and it works fine, except the OFF button that does not response on my devise
And due to that I have to SR the device in order to use the camera.

However it is the only solution that I have at this moment.

More ideas ?
Maybe someone have a “secret” and smart CAB file that can fix this issue ones and for all (-:


Thanks everybody

Ori

vijay, this sounds like a challenge for you... I guess that what we need is a full brihtness mode without harming the camera. Sorry, mate but I can't give you my own Hermes as I live far a way.

Guys, I've released VJLumos III for the Hermes, in the development and hacking thread.
Early release, but I've been using it all day and works fine.
MUCH brighter!
