i found a solution, but i don't know how to do it.


Quote:
framework-res.apk. It's resources.arsc. If you want to mess around with the brightness levels yourself, you can open it up in a hex editor, and the following values seem to be the brightness levels:

Offset 0x71E20: Minimum brightness
Offset 0x71E2C: Next level of brightness
Offset 0x71E38: Next level of brightness
Offset 0x71E44: Maximum brightness
i think it could be a good improvement for our batteries.
someone can tell me if to install the modified apk i have to reflash the rom or there is a faster way?

EDIT: i'm trying to modify it, i found 71E20, but not the others.

Hey, I know this is from a long time ago but did you have success making your changes? If not I made the required changes for blayos 0.84 framework-Res.apk for auto dimming. I can post it if you want.

Not sure if this can help, but an app on market could help you. It is named "Lux", I heard about it. I tried on zeubea's CM9 Beta0, and it didn't worked, because if not on app's main screen, it detects no light. Maybe on other ROMS it does.

Default Tested on Devils CM7.1

It almost works on CM7.1, but doesn't respond dynamically (i.e It doesn't adjust as soon as the ambient light level changes, it changes as it feels, kinda randomly). Therefore... not really working - sorry.

cyanogenmod -> display ->automatic backlights -> use custom(check) after that edit other levels and on the third colum make this changes
20 35 50 65 80 110 130 160 180 200 then go to the bottom on the screen and press 'set number of levels' after that go to the top and press 'Save and apply ' and you are done you dont need any app
