[Announce] Brightness status menu applet for Harmattan
 
unrestricted-system-ui required!

This is a concept plugin for unrestricted-system-ui, it adds a brightness slider to your status menu that can change the brightness of the screen.

To install:
Code:

wget http://mohammadag.xceleo.org/public/Harmattan/system-ui-brightness-control_0.1_armel.deb
dpkg -i system-ui-brightness-control_0.1_armel.deb

The status menu should be restarted and it should show, if not, restart the status menu with either
As user:
Code:

or as root:
Code:

this is a very useful feature! Do we need Inception, though? Isn't providing root access giving the permission to replace stock system UI?

No, Aegis prevents replacing com.nokia.maemo packages with packages from an unknown origin, you need inception or open mode :(

Now this is USEFULL! looking for the settings Icon in the sea of apps wasn't easy!
Thanx alot man! I always wondered why Nokia didn't implement a applet or applet for something like opening texts etc or even a media player for quick controls!
Thanx again :)

ahh that sucks :( I'm still wondering which one would be less dangerous. . Open kernel or inception. . I don't wanna reflash after setting up everything again xD
