[MOD]Auto Brightness Patch - add battery life to One S - Now with APM for JB 16.12.

Auto Brightness Patch, Advanced Power Menu & Menu Remaps

HTC has coded fairly generous Auto Brightness values into their framework, which is better then the ultra dark values, that plagued Galaxy Nexus users. Anyway I analyzed the code and decreased the values depending on the level between 10% and 20%. The new values are still fairly bright, but will have a decent impact on your battery life. Since the display consumes about 2/3 of battery especially during browsing sessions or gaming, this mod can add up to 10% of battery life to your device, depending on your usage pattern (especially while browsing). I also added a "back to stock" zip, which helps you to return to previous state without any issues. A Nandroid is nevertheless strongly recommended before you flash this mod.

Note: PLEASE don`t ask for screenshots

qemu.hw.mainkeys=1

If you prefer ADB:

adb pull /system/build.prop build.prop

then edit in Notepad ++, then push build.prop from fastboot folder with:

adb shell sysrw
adb push build.prop /system/

Set 644 permissions:

adb shell
su
chmod 644 /system/build.prop

Working without probs on TrickDroid. Thx for this mod

he_stheone64 · May 6, 2012

Here are my current values - they might change a bit going forward, but they are decent values, that should be fine with most users (taste certainly varies, but call that the "golden center"

)

I might also test a version with more steps involved going forward, but that`s still up in the air.

PHP:

<integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLevels">
        <item>11</item>
        <item>41</item>
        <item>91</item>
        <item>161</item>
        <item>226</item>
        <item>321</item>
        <item>641</item>
        <item>1281</item>
        <item>2601</item>
    </integer-array>
    <integer-array name="config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues">
        <item>45</item>
        <item>50</item>
        <item>55</item>
        <item>75</item>
        <item>105</item>
        <item>125</item>
        <item>150</item>
        <item>180</item>
        <item>200</item>
        <item>255</item>
    </integer-array>

I`m not exactly sure, what you mean? If you are asking for an Advanced Power Menu, this framework-res does support APM, but you need the matching androidpolicy.jar, in this case from Virtous v.140 ROM. If you are already using a ROM with APM based on Virtuous, you`ll be fine anyway.

Ok thank you very much to that I meant, thanks for your work.

No problems here..

he_stheone64 · May 7, 2012

Update: Added a version to OP, that includes Advanced Power Menu for people using a deodexed ROM, that currently is missing that mod. Also safer to use on ROM`s, which use their own APM (so far all APM`s seem to be based on Virtuous anyway, but that can always change...)

Stupid question maybe: Does it work with HTC Sense stock ROM?

he_stheone64 · May 8, 2012

No - it does not. At least I did not try... In any case the APM version would definetely deliver a decent bootloop, since androidpolicy.jar is deodexed. You can try the standard version and give feedback (after doing an nandroid).
