When i press the powerbutton the backlight doesn't go imediattly to the configured brightness level, it starts at a lower level and only after it steps to the configured level (at the control panel) this started to happen at some point in time, does anyone also have this?

I just noticed my buttons aren't lighting up anymore :/
Mine stay on whenever charging and at all brightness levels... the only way they'll go off is if I put the phone to sleep (click power button).
Anyone know the setting location? I have Cyanogen & ADW launcher. I've seen it before but it's been so long I forgot where they were and can't find them.

Lower / Upper = readings from the light sensor
Screen = the screen brightness you want based on the lower/upper light sensor values
Buttons = whether or not you want the softkeys on. Unfortunately, they cannot be dimmed (hardware limitations, from what I've read), so 255=on and 0=off
In the default configuration, for example, if the sensor value is 0-199, the screen will be set to brightness 25 and the softkeys will be turned on. If the sensor value is >399, notice that the softkeys turn off (button value changes to 0). If you want the buttons on all the time, set all button values as 255. If you're like me, and you hate the softkey lights, set all button values to 0.
THANK YOU! Exactly what I was looking for and clearly explained!

The culprit was Lightflow. Had to deselect all "additional leds found". Me + google = victory.
Hello all, I'm hoping someone might know how to help me diagnose an issue I'm having with my brightness settings.
If I unselect "Auto" and set to max brightness, the screen gets nice and bright. But that's not a problem.
If I press the power button to turn the screen off, then press it again to turn the screen back on, the brightness quickly dims to a less bright value. All sliders, icons, settings etc. still register as being set at max brightness.
From what I can tell, the brightness is actually switching to the dimmest setting. The opposite of maximum brightness.
Any ideas? I'm new to logcatting, so might need some specific direction on the proper parameters to log.
T989 running Rushing's Lightspeed (4.1.2 base), and latest Tiberius 3.0.101 kernel. I've made some systemui xml tweaks for status bar and expanded status bar.
Let me know what other info I can provide.
Bump ... just realized the same thing is happening even when on auto brightness. Change the setting, all is good. Press power to turn screen off. Then press power to turn screen on, and within the first second, the brightness drops. Like something loads when waking the phone.
Any ideas where to start looking?
Hi,
I have recently bought an RK3188 Unit (KLD6) and am happily running Malayks ROM on it. However, when I switch on the lights of the car, the unit lowers the brightness of the screen. As I have to use lights during day in some parts of Europe, I would like to manage the brightness of the screen by an app. If it is a bright day and I have to drive with lights switched on, I can barely read the screen anymore. So is there any way to prevent this behavior? I know that I could just remove the lights wire, but I would like to have the LEDs to be switched on or off with the lights.
In case of Mtcd devices such option is in Factory Settings (password to enter it is 126). You can check it in case of your unit. I had the same problem - in my country it is mandatory to use head lights 24h per day so I lost screen visibility during the day.
Thanks for your answer. However, I wasn't able to find any option to turn off the brightness control. Do you remember how it was labeled/called? I found the option to turn on the LEDs permanently and also brightness control for reverse driving, but no option for the brightness with lights switched on.
Thanks in advance.
I found the solution, which obviously was too obvious to be found beforehand by myseld. :/ The normal system settings menu provides a tab 'Display', in which the brightness can be set as 'auto', 'light', and 'Dark', whereas 'Auto' means that the brightness depends on the status of the car lights, 'Light' means bright and 'Dark' means lower brightness.
Is there any way to set max brightness and lower screen resolution without going through power saving mode? Everything runs way smoother at FHD and really don't need it at max brightness at any point of time. I can customize them with medium power saving mode on but it also disables always on display and button lights which I want to keep.
Settings/display/screen resolution/pick whatever you want and reboot to get everything sized right. You can then adjust the brightness using the slider however you want.
Good day
Had a problem, searched but nothing found. Nexus 7 car instal. When dimming the screen to auto brightness on zero (or tasker setting 0 brightness) screen is properly dimmed, perfect for night driving. But after locking the screen and then unlocking the screen backlight doesn't turn on. I can still operate touchscreen (hear music, taps etc) but nothing on the screen. Resetting by holding the power button brings it back, with brightness set to zero and backlight on.
Any solutions?
