[Q] [app idea] why do android wear need minimum 4.3 version? topic

Hi,
Why do android wear need minimum 4.3 version?

I believe it has just few limitations but why it supported on above 4.3?

My suggestion is why an app cant be built which supports ICS , gingerbread phones which can interact with android wear.
I know few things are not possible but basic things are possible like file sharing from phone to wear, notifications etc.. ? :confused:

[MOD] Minimum Brightness topic

Change the minimum brightness level from usual 10 to 1. It doesn't modify the autobrightness level map so automatic brightness won't be lowered (though it can be easily adjusted on CM11).

This is so far exactly the same as GravityBox offers (modifying 'config_screenBrightnessSettingMinimum').

But Minimum Brightness offers one unique feature - it also modifies the lower brightness levels in MX Player (free/paid). Because no matter whatever you use manual or auto brightness, MX Player always uses minimum brightness of 0.05 (12/255, 19/255, 27/255, 36/255...). To actually lower the brightness, you would have to turn off brightness control in MX Player or use one of many 'overlay filter brightness app'.
So Minimum Brightness module retains the same quadratic function for brightness levels but includes lower values (1/255, 4/255, 9/255, 16/255, 25/255...).

Minimum Brightness uses value 1/255 which might not be suitable for every display (meaning LCD) but it suits perfectly my Super AMOLED screens (Galaxy S5 / Galaxy Tab S 8.4) and watching videos at night is still enjoyable.

There are many excellent auto brightness apps (Lux, Darker etc) that can use overlay filters to lower brightness even more so it's up to everyone to try and decide.

Minimum Brightness is also available from Xposed Module Repository (source).
