How to gradually increase the philips hue light using android apis

Question

From my code I try to schedule an alarm on philips hue and want the light brightness to gradually turn on from 0 to max value.

I use following code:

PHBridge selectedBridge = PHHueSDK.getInstance().getSelectedBridge();
        PHSchedule schedule = new PHSchedule("My Alarm");
        PHLightState lightState = new PHLightState();
        lightState.setOn(true);
        lightState.setTransitionTime(120000);
        lightState.setIncrementBri(1);
        schedule.setLightState(lightState);
        schedule.setLightIdentifier(lightIdentifier);

but the apis lightState.setTransitionTime(120000) and lightState.setIncrementBri(1) dient't seem to help. can someone help me with this.

I could not find the doc. While codeing, I saw this as one of the api of PHLightState — Sushil, Jan 28 '16 at 16:00
What is not clear about the question that someone has voted to close it. I can try to be more clear though its already clear. Someone is just trying to act smart!! — Sushil, Jan 28 '16 at 17:23
Maybe explain what you expected to happen and what actually happened. Include any error messages or stack traces. — Kevin Krumwiede, Jan 28 '16 at 17:33
If Philips isn't publishing javadoc, someone should clue them in to the fact that no docs == no product. — Kevin Krumwiede, Jan 28 '16 at 17:33

transition time is uint16, so a max of 65535 is allowed.

see Lights API - which is the best documentation you get at the moment... sigh.

I don't know whether it solves you problem, but one less bug.
