Change Log

v1.2

• As the modify settings permission might be greyed out sometimes, now it would enable that back.
• You don’t need ActivityStarter to grant the permission anymore. Instead, you can use the OpenWriteSettingsScreen method.

v1.1

• Big update! Added Listener for brightness and adaptive change
• Optimized the code

Note

This extension will only be distributed in Kodular and AI2 communities. Reuploading my work is not allowed.

You need to grant WRITE_SETTINGS permission. For more please see this post. You can use either the method from Screen or use the OpenWriteSettingsScreen directly from my extension. Please note that only the Android version starting from 6.0 needs this permission. At the lower versions, it should be granted when the app is installed.

The intention of this extension is to change the brightness of the phone, not just the app. If you want to change the brightness of that app without permission, please refer to Requesting extension for app brightness without requiring permissions - #9 by Mohamed_Tamer

Thanks guys!

@WatermelonIce

You need to grant WRITE_SETTINGS permission.

I just want to ask a question.Should we ask the permission manually or the extension will ask it automatically?

[WatermelonIce (Bryan)]

@Mohamed_Tamer

extension will ask it automatically?

The extension won’t ask it. I didn’t include it because it might cause this problem

Can't Allow Write System Settings

System write settings permissions is not the same like write external storage permission… And btw the system write setting permission can not be granted through a block. The user can do it only manuel. And you have not show us anything what you want or what you have tried…

Therefore, use this to check if the permission granted:

And use this to open that settings:

(for only android 6+)
