[PSA] screen dimming with adaptive brightness off

I noticed this about a week ago. When I unlock my phone, after a second or two the screen dims then brightens back up. Adaptive brightness is off. I'd been messing with screen calibration around the same time, and I was a little afraid it was caused by something I had tweaked.

It followed me across multiple ROMs, very thorough wipes, and even a full fastboot restore. I was beginning to worry it was some kind of hardware problem.

Eventually I figured out the brightness ducking was caused by a new option in the Naptime app. The current version of Naptime has a disable motion detection option that older versions didn't have. When I have that option enabled my screen brightness ducks on every unlock.

I thought I'd post it here in case it affects anyone else. Would have saved me a lot of aggravation and needless messing with my phone.

Video brightness not in control

I just rooted my lenovo k3 note k50a40 using the cmd method but ever since whenever I play a video in mx player or internal video player or any other player I can't control the brightness. Sliding on the left side just shows brightness increasing but really doesn't increase the brightness. Can anyone tell me why I'm having this problem?

Camera distortion and brightness problem

Hi everyone, I recently bought a new camera module for the Z1C to replace my old one which had dark spots all over it, scratched lense etc. However, with the new camera (supposedly an original sony part), I experience a strange brightness and distortion problem, with the former one being rather obvious from the attached pictures. Note the large brightness artifact on the right side of the picture (inverted L shape).

I had sent the module back to the camera supplier, they tested it on their Z1C and found no problems whatsoever, telling me it was a (supposedly well known) software bug in my phone. Unfortunately, I was unable to find any occurence of other users reporting this particular problem. Maybe you can help me out?

I have an unlocked bootloader, currently running on the most recent DstrikersZ1 Mod (Android 5.1.1), but have also tried wiping everything and going back to the latest Sony Stock without getting rid of the problem. Could still be an incompatibility issue in terms of camera module hardware revisions? Interestingly, the problem does not occur in CM or AOSP firmwares, suggesting indeed a Sony-related software issue. Still, I find it hard to believe that this cannot be fixed while remaining on Sony-based firmwares. I have tried to flash every single Camera Mod available (Z5 camera, Cyberian, and many more) plus trying many alternative Camera softwares from the Google Play store without any success.

Thank you all very much!

I recently bought a Samsung tab s 8.4 and have noticed that the brightness randomly goes up and down, even though I have Auto-brightness turned off. I have done some research and supposedly it could be a loose battery/display cable. Just wanted to get some more feedback thanks

High Brightness Mode Widget

Hello all!

I've recently updated High Brightness Mode Widget to work with the OnePlus 3.

If you find it difficult to read your screen outdoors, then this widget will help.

With one click you can force on or off a special hardware setting for AMOLED screens called "High Brightness Mode" which makes the screen as bright as possible.

The widget can be double tapped to start auto mode, which will automatically enable high brightness mode in bright conditions. I have specially tuned auto mode to work reliably and practically. It won't turn on unless you are in the sun or a very bright light shines onto your screen. More importantly, it won't turn on and off rapidly if you move into shadows.

• Simple and extremely light (uses only about 3 or 4 MB of memory)


• Requires root


• Works with stock kernel and custom kernels on the OnePlus 3

Adaptive Brightness?

What's the deal with adaptive brightness? I'm new to this phone and it doesn't seem to work like the auto brightness on my Samsung Note 4. When you slide the brightness, it changes, but somehow the adaptive stays on, but now everything is brighter overall?

Someone explain!

Any way to change minimum brightness value?

The screen is just too bright at a dark room with the lowest setting and without using auto/adaptive brightness. I don't want to use any screen filter apps if possible. I tried changing the value with gravity box to 1 but it doesn't seems to do anything. I am on Lollipop 5.1 stock fw rooted. Thanks

Auto Brightness is too dark

Since about 2 -3 days my auto-brightness screen settings is quite dark and I have to adjust it manually.
May I change it somewhere?
I did the yesterday system update and it didn't help.
Original non-rooted non-branded HTC 10 European.
Maybe it happened to anybody else?

Brightness Problem after boot

Every time I boot my lovely handset the brightness is maxed out no matter where it was positioned via the slider in the settings menu previously. It takes a good couple of minutes to sort itself out and within that time the screen flashes/glitches ever so slightly as if it's trying to remember the above settings. I can move the toggle slider left/right and there is not much of a change either. Weirdly if I tap the back of the phone when this is happening it will change the brightness on every tap. After this initial booting time it is perfectly fine and works as it should and doesn't happen again until reboot. I am on stock everything and this has happened on 1.30 and now on 1.80 firmware(s). Only a slight annoyance but I'm more worried about hardware failure. Does anyone else have or know about this problem?

Where are default brightness values stored? (Event 85)

The purpose of this question is related to an intermittent problem that I experience on my Eonon with the Malaysk 444 rom, which results in the screen going blank. I suspect that it is "stuck" in auto brightness mode, and as a result some of the auto brightness values, for whatever reason, do not register for my device and result in a blank screen.

My temporary solution to this problem is to rekey a physical button using MTC-Keys as event 85 (event_44=85). This works to move the brightness value from 0 to 100% with a few steps in between. My results are that I go from 0% which is a blank screen, then get 25% brightness, then 50% results in a blank screen, then I see 75% and 100% as expected. Does anyone know where the predefined sequence values for event 85 are stored? I'd like to play with setting different brightness values (0-255) for the various steps to see if I can find values that work at each stage. I suspect this might fix the auto-brightness values as well.

Thanks in advance.

Hans
