Summary
The brightness,<level> TCP command is parsed by MyMessageService.java but never handled by MainActivity.java, making brightness-only control impossible.
Details
Parsing works correctly
app/src/main/java/com/dan/eo1/MyMessageService.java lines 86-89:
if (message.startsWith("brightness")) {
intent.putExtra("type", "brightness");
intent.putExtra("level", Float.parseFloat(message.replace("brightness,","")));
}
But no handler exists
MainActivity.java has handlers for these message types:
options ✓
image / photo / video ✓
resume ✓
tag ✓
url ✓
Missing: type.equals("brightness") - the broadcast is received but silently ignored.
Impact
Users cannot change brightness without using the options command, which bundles brightness with interval and quiet hours. Any change to those values triggers loadImagesFromFlickr(), causing an unwanted image reload with spinner.
Suggested Fix
Add handler in MainActivity.java around line 830:
if (type.equals("brightness")) {
float level = intent.getFloatExtra("level", -1f);
WindowManager.LayoutParams params = getWindow().getAttributes();
if (level == -1.0f) {
autobrightness = true;
adjustScreenBrightness(lastLightLevel);
} else {
autobrightness = false;
brightnesslevel = level;
params.screenBrightness = level;
getWindow().setAttributes(params);
}
SharedPreferences settings = getSharedPreferences("prefs", MODE_PRIVATE);
SharedPreferences.Editor editor = settings.edit();
editor.putBoolean("autobrightness", autobrightness);
editor.putFloat("brightnesslevel", brightnesslevel);
editor.apply();
}
