Root Tweaked v2.1

[bubbalv29]

The included kernel is rhcps kernel. Also, there is nothing in the rom that would affect data - any issues are likely network related.

Oh yeah, then I have no clue what two kernal's I flashed.

LOL - most likely you just flashed rhcps kernel over rhcps kernel - no harm no foul.

Is there a way to make the screen brightness even lower? Its so bright, even on the lowest setting.

I believe there is, but it involves edits to the framework. I've never done such things but have heard of others doing so.

After a bit of looking on the Play Store, I found something called Screen Dimmer. Works pretty well actually.

I looked in the play store for this app and couldn't find it. Is it under a different name?

Sorry, it's called Screen Filter. It works very well actually. It does distort some colors, but that's to be expected. It makes the phone way more usable in the dark, when your not trying to disturb people. I can use my phone even at zero percent brightness with it and still navigate through everything.

Thanks! It works great!

So, do we have any news on TweakStock?

 

[dwitherell]

Been a bit busy, but it's next on the list

 

[bubbalv29]

Awesome! Keep us updates.

 

[dwitherell]

Awesome! Keep us updates.

I'm in progress - I'd say maybe 60% done. If things continue as they have it shouldn't be too much longer

 

[dwitherell]

Alrighty - update is now posted! Check OP for a link

does not matter which file i flash, when i flash tweaked v2.0 my phone just hangs at the samsung 'splash' screen when it is turned on when i go back to my recovery image of v1.4 it boots fine.


EDIT: nevermind, it seems as if /system wasnt mounting properly, finally got it to mount and now the rom seems to have taken nicely

Yeah, he took it out, but he also includes an empty .zip so you can restore whatever you want.

 

[shrpshtr325]

i actually forgot about the .zip containing all the apps, thanks for reminding me, got it back installed.

Tweaktools is great for that sort of thing as well

 

[shrpshtr325]

Check It Out,,, Tweaktools is a utility to configure various features of Tweaked rom... TweakTools
I Use It On My Strat!!!

 

[shrpshtr325]

its a terminal based program which allows you to install different tweaks which help with phone performance, it also lets you reinstall de-bloated software if you want and a bunch of other cool stuff

 

[bubbalv29]

So, I've noticed there are some .apk's available that I am unfamiliar with. Can anyone explain what some of them may be?

 

[shrpshtr325]

post up the names of them and i will do my best.
