lumos

Lumos is fully customizable auto-backlight changer developed as a complete replacement for HTC built-in auto backlight service in newest HTC devices starting from HTC Diamond and Raphael. It focuses on minimal CPU usage (0.05-0.2%), maximum battery saving, low memory footprint and maximum backlight change smoothness and responsiveness. Lumos combines only the best from all currently available auto-backlight solutions and adds many extras.

You need to disable built-in auto-backlight or this won’t probably work. Start – Settings – System tab – Power – Backlight tab and DISABLE the ‘Auto adjust backlight’ feature.

Just install the CAB, soft reset or start Lumos from programs and you’re all set!
- Lumos always installs to the device (no matter what you chose)
- Installer will create auto-start entry (Lumos will start after a soft-reset)
- Installer will create a shortcut to LumosWizard in your programs
- All next versions will be able to use v07+ configuration file (no need to recalibrate ever again after you install this)

Program installs to \Program Files\Lumos\
Lumos.exe = starts/stops auto backlight service
LumosWizard.exe = tool to configure all aspects of Lumos
settings.txt = configuration file is not included in the package, it will be automatically generated by LumosWizard after successful calibration, you can edit it manually or by using LumosWizard.
