Hello guys,
I want to share the following. This is my mod of sj8023ld which i expanded the selection of Brightness Widget to Dim/25%/40% to suit Xperia Ray's screen characteristic (40% is already bright enough for Outside view IMHO so i set it max at that). Off course you still can use any other default selection. I just want to extend the choice so we can manage brightness more effective. :) It is compatible with .42 and .62 firmware. Don't know about any other. Please report if you do have it run successfully on another firmware.

thanks to sj8023ld for the mod
AND
thanks to rablex for the theme

Updated 2/1/12: rablex one is zipaligned now to reduce ram usage. Please redownload.

Updated 1/20/12: added dim/15/25 for those who needs even dimmer light.

Updated: Option 2 issue is fixed too. Please redownload from below :)

  1. Download the file here
  2. with your Root Explorer, copy SystemUI.apk to /system/ folder for now.
  3. Change Permissions to rw-r--r-- from Root Explorer(Press and hold item, select Permissions)
  4. Move the SystemUI.apk to /system/app/. Overwrite when asked.
  5. Install the QuickSetting.apk as an usual app.
  6. Reboot to see changes, run QuickSetting from Drawer to change options.
  7. Say thanks to sj8023ld at link above for the original one. :)

G'day!

Old File:
Added Option 2 Fix + Ultra Transparent Theme here
Added Option 4 Dim/25/40here

Thanks, works :)

Using Kernel+ROM REPACK4PDA v.7 by aire. Can you mod this status bar which has the same bug with brightness control?

Edit: Oops sry, didn´t know I just have to replace the images. So I did it myself. Anyway, thx again. ;) May be you can mod the 3rd setting (Auto/Dim/25/50/75/100) to work like it should. Currently 25% switches brightness to 40%.

Ou i thought that my algorithm was not quite good because when i simulated the algorithm by translating the codes, they are indeed wrong, but i haven' tried that one in RL :p ok hope i can resolve that later. :)

UPDATE: Please download from first page again. ;) It is fixed now :D


@mike: this is a normal one. Because in transparent one, the basic date display when pressed is removed because of the transparency issue with the icon. I don't want that so i chose the normal one.

I have Quick settings panel as mod for status bar... Don't you think it will kill that mod?
If u use the same original mod as mine from sj8023ld, nothing is removed.
It is two related apps between quick panel and systemui.apk, but the main logic resides on systemui.apk. Quick panel only for storing user preference(which I mod too, to give additional stepping). While system ui sets brightness depending on what level selected from the save data of quick panel. If you are using the ultra themed mod, unfortunately it will be gone sorry.

Can you:
- adjust it to Dim/20%/40% to better suit Xperia Ray screen,
- use the icons from Ultra theme, especially for brightness?

thanks!

Do you mean that you want the Ultra theme to be here as well? Well, personally i like the original style, rather than the green lit widget. :) But someday maybe.. ;)
Maybe Ultra theme icons with blue lits.

20% and 25% is just too small of difference. Sorry mate didn't see the necessity.
About ultra theme, I could build that one. But I think I need to learn both version first. Sure they are from the same source, but surely there are some differences (like text label). Anyway check out later. :)

Could you please consider 15 vs 25 then? As a separate entry? 25 is just too bright to me. Indoors, even 15% is OK.

And thanks for the Ultra theme consideration. It matches better the SE phone in call buttons.

Hmm i don't think I'll add another one. The script is complicated with conditional branches. So with additional level it will be too hard to solve. If only I can develop more flexible checkboxes instead radio choices like in CM. Thank you for understanding.

No need for new entry, just update the new one, you added for me, changing last value 25 -> 40.

I think you misunderstand me in the first place.

Btw Download failed for Ultra mod.

Ok sorry, i might misunderstood you but i think i'll stop modding this for a moment, i think i want to explore other mod that is accessible for our device rather than just revising this one. Sorry for the inconveniences. Hope you understand. And the Ultra Mod is downloadable. Please try again.
