Do you keep screen brightness max?

Are you using the default "theme"?

I keep screen brightness at its lowest setting most of the time. Outside, sometimes the ambient light is too bright and I have to go to brightest.

I'm using the fourth "theme," with red in it.

I also switched off the feedback sounds when the screen is tapped.

One of these days I will get to the "wallpaper..."

I left screen brightness at default setting but will now try lowest.

I also use the 4th theme with red.

I left the sound at default.

I changed the web icon to show Slim Devices as it is linked to my SlimServer so I can use the 770 as remote control for my MP3 collection. It would be nice if there were more than one web icon to place on the desktop.

I intend to change the wallpaper as well, but have not taken the time to do so.

Brightness is low in public so as not to attract prying eyes. Reading a paper over someone's shoulder is bad enough, reading an e-book people tend to squint and get up close. Outdoors or at home I crank the brightness.

Sound is almost always off. If I'm at home I'll turn it on but only if I remember.

I also use theme 4 with the red in it. I wish there were more available. My wallpaper the silhouette of someone hanging from a tree with a giant red star in the background over a yellow stonework sky. (The original piece from www.deviantart.com was an anti-racism piece)

I'm still itching to get stick on vinyl letters from a hardware/hobby store. "DONT PANIC" is coming soon

I've also modified the menus and sorted apps into:
<separator>
Apps
Internet
Games
System
<separator>

Nice, small, simple. Any new apps still go into 'Extras' (the only branch of the menu tree you can modify without root access. I just move them after install manually.

Another red theme user here.

I use the "doughnut" background, though (Wallpaper_03)

While you are getting that clock, he's also got that number game...
