CHANGE YOUR DISPLAY OPTIONS here. Tap to get to these options:
Brightness. Normally, the Galaxy S II chooses a screen brightness appropriate for that level of lighting—less light in the dark, and more in sunlight, for example. If you’d prefer to set it at a specific brightness level, and have it stay at that level until you change it, tap this option, and from the screen that appears, uncheck the box next to “Automatic brightness.” A slider appears that lets you manually set the brightness level.
Auto-rotate screen. With this setting turned on, whenever you turn your phone from vertical to horizontal, the screen rotates as well. Unless you’ve got a good reason to change that, it’s a good idea to leave this on.
Animation. At times, your Galaxy S II uses animated effects between screens. Out of the box, it shows all animations. Tap this option, and you can turn off all animations, have the Galaxy S II show just some of them, or show all animations.
Screen timeout. In order to save battery life, the Galaxy S II’s screen goes blank after 1 minute. You can change that to as low as 15 seconds, or as much as 10 minutes. Tap this option and then choose the interval you want.
