Well after taking a few days off its time to hit the bricks again. So here
I am asking for help as to why my program is not setting the brightness
requested... Here is the code I have so far.
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.Settings;
import android.provider.Settings.SettingNotFoundException;
import android.view.WindowManager;
public class bright extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
int brightnessMode = 0;
try {
brightnessMode = Settings.System.getInt(getContentResolver(),
Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS_MODE);
} catch (SettingNotFoundException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
if (brightnessMode == Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS_MODE_AUTOMATIC) {
Settings.System.putInt(getContentResolver(),
Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS_MODE,
Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS_MODE_MANUAL);
}
WindowManager.LayoutParams layoutParams = getWindow().getAttributes();
layoutParams.screenBrightness = 0.5F; // set 50% brightness
getWindow().setAttributes(layoutParams);
Intent i = new Intent(this, StartSpark.class);
i.addFlags(Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK);
startActivity(i);
finish();
}
}
I heard some place that when you do things like this you need to send out a
new window in order for it to refresh and take on the new brightness
properties. So that is why I have the intent set up at the bottom.
I have been messing with this on my own for a while now but everything I am
trying is coming up dead... And not in the way I want it to be..
So what am I doing wrong?
