Double tap to wake is back! - Sony Xperia 1 Guides, News, & Discussion

Glad to see that double tap to wake is back! Not like the XZ3 where it just turns on ambient display, but now takes you to the lockscreen like the older phones.

No problem, happy I could help out
Basically flashlight for Fascinate or Epic should work:
Tiny Flashlight + LED (has widget)
TeslaLED (has widget)
Widgetsoid can do this as well so you can have a nice tidy button in your power controls if you like. You need to change the flash mode to 2 in the advanced options though
ProTorch works as well, but no widget and it costs $$

Request for a picture from someone who does not have backlight bleed

Okay, I know we have lots of threads with people posting pictures of their bleed screen. I want to request one member atleast who does NOT have bleed to post a picture of his screen here. I personally am getting a second G2x and since this is like my first phone in over 5 years, I'd like to have a picture ready for comparison when I get my replacement.
You could use this as a test page.

Alternatively, telekNesis has made a wonderful app for this exact purpose. Use that.
http://teleknesis.net/Android/APKs/ScreenBleedTest.apk
I've attached 2 images of my screen. One from far away, and one in close up. The camera brightness gets wonky when its far away, so a closeup is most recommended, and I'd like to compare this.
I would but my phone is the only camera I have at work
can post one in a couple hours
EDIT: See new pic

Full brightness on a black background. I've never noticed bleeding.

Thanks for the picture. But:
1. You are not in a dark room
2. your status bar is there.
We can't do an accurate comparison like that

Thanks for the image. This looks like a very good one to compare against.
OK. sorry ... was just trying to help. Removed.
Don't want to come off as an ass, but if you think a screenshot will show any display problems you need to think a little harder.
Thanks for trying to help Maris_

lol, @ screenshot, if only everything looked that black
Maris_ said:
I used SketchBook Pro and painted the screen black, set it as my wallpaper, used LauncherPro to hide the Navigation Bar, then took a screenshot in a dark room. As far as I can tell, I don't have any unusual backlight bleed. True, it isn't the deep black my Nexus One would have had, but considering this phone is backlit, I think I'm OK. (I hope this dropbox link works)

Is that at maximum brightness? Because, I find that to be absolutely fine. /jealous
My replacement is on its way and I think this is the image that I'm going to use to compare. Thanks again.

Nice home app! Very smooth. No lags.
It works very well except when I press the top button to see the menu to shut down, the phone freezes and after a while it reboots, not on the initial "Sony Ericsson" screen but in the next animated screen. So, to shut down the phone I need to take the battery out. I don't know if it happens only with my X10...
Other nice feature to consider: Samsung Widgets.

Screenshots is crap?

Hey all.
I just rootet my Sensation last night, got S-Off, root etc.
Running Revolution HD rom right now, and I've used Leedroid too, but I got a problem, when I take screenshots of my sensation the picture looks like this: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-...I/AAAAAAAAAFs/Aai4fJlrAP4/s512/screenshot.jpg
I´ve tried with these two apps: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.geeksoft.screenshot&feature=search_result
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bw.picme.local&feature=search_result
Anyone know what the problem is?
The problem is that those 2 apps that you tried don't support the qHD display that we have. They are for WVGA and lower resolution.
What you need is drocap2 which supports qHD.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gmail.nagamatu.drocap2&feature=search_result
Yea it looks like drocap2 works better. But with it there seems to be lines in the capture at times. I took a snap of my home screen which came out great, but when I took a shot of my lock screen which uses the Weather widget the capture had some black lines across it.
The screen shots are attached.
I'm using Perma-Temp Root for root access.
I just took a screenshot of my lock screen with drocap2 and it worked fine. Perhaps it is because you are using Perma-Temp Root instead of the full S-OFF and Root.

Huh? What? You mean if we press power+home a screen capture is made? Where does the output graphic go?
Maybe I'm not doing it right, I can't make it happen when I try pressing power+home, but maybe I don't know where to look for the graphic ...

Same question.
The lines are what I believe from the live wallpaper. Try using a static wallpaper and do another screenshot.
As for the power and home I think its only available with certain roms, I am not 100% on that though.

+1 to that
Drocap2 is the only to work fine for me of all the ones I tried...thank goodness!
Guys, if you hit the Power/Sleep button and then quickly press the HOME button, a ScreenShot is taken lol
This is the app I use and it works 100% I attached the apk

I'll take your word for it on the live wallpaper. That sounds plausible enough. I enjoy my lock screen too much to change it even for a short test .
And yea, that power+home for a screen shot sounds like something in a custom ROM.
I had those same lines but mine were even worse.
I downloaded Screenshot ER from the market and it works perfectly!
