Screen brightness not working on notebook - Remix OS for PC

Help.
I am running the Remix OS on a usb stick, and tested on two different notebooks ( Acer Aspire E1-571 and Asus X550LN ). Both of them works very well, but only on the Acer the screen brightness works. There's any command or anything for I can change my brightness on the Asus notebook?
Thanks!

Same here with Vaio ..needs the quick settings in the notification panel.
I've found Settings>Accessibilty>Toggle High contrast text improves situation slightly. Though hardly a fix and is becoming nauseating.

QUICK FIX!

Use Fn+left or right key combination

In /system/build.prop change ro.remixos.box=true to false
Then you will get a brightness notification like the one in the picture. You can use that to switch brightness.

My fn + left/right key are music controls. To change brightness, its fn + f5/f6, but it does not work :c

I'm gonna try it later... I'm testing this OS, I need to root it yet.
Anyway, thanks!

the Fn key combination did nothing for me also, which is why I was searching for a solution.
@sacredev great fix there! confirmed as in the attachement

[Q] How do I add quick settings?

As title says...how do I add the additional quick links to the pull menu bar (screen brightness, ringer volume, rotate)???
I've been looking and am hoping someone can help....I don't want to flash a different ROM to get them, just mod the one I'm on now. A flashable zip would be even better
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks for posting this. Do you have to do anything else besides flash this? I'm pretty n00b at looking inside apks
i flashed this and I didn't get any extra settings. Any ideas? Thanks, I'm on stock rooted btw
Yeah, HTC should really offer some customization of their quick settings.
I'd personally like to see an option to put the phone in standby, like is available on some MIUI ROMs. The less I need to use the hard power button, the longer it'll last.

I think this is what I have but it's made for gingerbread 2.3.3 which works for the most part on 2.3.4 but instead of saying "of or on" it just says "1% 2%". Are you using 2.3.4?
is there an update of this zip for 2.3.4?
Thanks!

would be awesome..
Is it possible to make the camera and lock icon not appear by default?
I think whats happening is that the power and home button simulate a touch on the screen, hence the camera and lock icons appear after and the ripple from the center icon. Thats just ,y theory but it would be nice to have only the center button appear on screen on.
i dont know why this happened...
i tried fix it using cm9, but it was difficult..
will this work on stock pre-rooted 2.3.4 ?

Thanks for the effort.
I, too, have spent hours on learning about framework just to solve this. I decompiled both yours and CM9's framework to do a Windiff. Most files were same with minor differences that shouldnt affect the lockscreen behavior. There were also newer but visually equal png files in CM9 but that too should not cause any problems.
What I have concluded, therefore, is that the problem is not in framework-res.apk but in framework.jar. I know nothing about java and may be too stressful to learn yet another protocol for this lockscreen problem. However, if you know java, maybe you can look into it.
My observation is that on boot, the lock screen shows up without the unlock and camera icons. Only when power button or home buttons waking the screen does the icons appear, and usually between 0-100 ms after the screen is on, which means there is something to do with how the phone wakes and how either button can trigger the same response as a touch on the screen.
Thanks a lot. its awesome.
Just one question.
is there any way to switch the camera function to Mute/Silent function?
Just like the original Xperia does?

you can add a RenderFX from Cyanogen menu or via homescreen widget.
you can add a filter that reduces screen brightness.
predefined like dark red or dark green and others.

Yeap.
Go to: settings/cyanogen
mod settings /interface /notification power widget -------> add brightness widget, got it?
Then go to cyanogenmod/ display /automatic backlight --------->at light levels part press "use custom" then "set dim level" to 12 (on some roms lower is possible, but on minicm you'll get blank screen)
then you can adjust to ultra-low by pressing on brightness button (at notification bar)
# if this is hard for you or cyanogenmod settings doesn't include these options, so its better to use a screen filter app(like "lux auto brightness" app) as our friend said

Yes... This is a tipical burn-it sintom... I suggest you an hard reset asap or better a clean flash...
It's not screen burn in.
If you pull down the quick settings panel just enough to cover part that has the it goes away. I don't know if there is some sort of offscreen padding that would fix it.
I've also read (don't recall where) that it could be light leak because of the way the display is designed for a device (ours in this case).
p.s: I'm no developer. Just a regular user like others here.
