Question

I\'m attempting to change the screen brightness from withing a service, like so:

android.provider.Settings.System.putInt(getContentResolver(),
android.provid         


        

Answer 1

A less intrusive way (using significantly less code) is:

android.provider.Settings.System.putInt(getContentResolver(),
android.provider.Settings.System.SCREEN_BRIGHTNESS, bright);

PowerManager pm = (PowerManager) getSystemService(Context.POWER_SERVICE);
pm.userActivity(SystemClock.uptimeMillis(), false);
