Anyone notice that your camera settings don't stay? If I set auto contrast or outside visibility they don't stay. Is that normal? On my S3 I didn't have that issue.

The better question would be: why is your screen on in your pocket?

You can always go back to eclair

Put it on auto-brightness. It will lower the brightness in a dark area like your pocket. It'll disable the brightness control also. Hope this helps.

Can't you change this in the settings?
I would like to disable this control too.
Can anyone help please?
Is there any hidden setting to disable it?

+1 to this... might not be the best solution for somebody trying to always keep it at minimal brightness, but, to my knowledge, it is the only way to disable the swipe of the notification bar to change brightness...

Root explorer or similar and delete brightness.apk from /system/app

So I don't know if it's just me but even on its lowest setting, the SGS3 display is very bright.
Would it be possible for someone to make a script so we can lower the brightness a bit more?
In a brightly lit room on the lowest setting its very bright to me, so I wish to lower it in those times to save battery life.
Is there an after market app that can do this?

There's an app called screen filter which can make it darker. It's free I believe.

Lux is a great auto brightness app that can also be used to manually adjust the brightness down until the screen is almost not visible.

Does anyone understand why while taking a picture in a low light settings you cannot see what you are trying to take the picture of? Is there a way to improve the lighting to see what you are about to take a picture of?

Try ProCapture in the play store. Great camera app, and you can set the flash to "Torch" mode so that it's on full time while lining up your shot.

I put my dim level and brightness down to as far as they can go down and the homescreen is dimmed fine but I notice in the dark, opening a browser or a program that my brightness is pertty high and enough to keep me awake. How would I do this in AOKP roms and is there a good program to help me tweak it down further?
Any apps to control brightness by app?
I think there's a feature in the ktweaker app on KToonz's kernel that will let you drop brightness further. That's the only place I've seen it.

+1 for screen filter. I have been using it for a long time and it's been great.
Lux also allows you to go lower on brightness. It also does auto brightness way better than the stock touch wiz.

I really wish there was an app that put sepia/lowered brightness all in one app and hopefully a dropdown notification bar. I mean along iwth cell standby display tends to be the main culprit of battery drain.
Would be nice to have an app like that. DEV it
You can also use rootdim

Thanks for that, I knew about Screen Filter but I was looking for something that would actually dim the backlight instead of just overlaying on the display.
Just want to ask fellow xda members for help and opinion. Im using the same picture on my homescreen and lock screen but I have noticed that the quality of the picture on the lockscreen is nit as clear or as sharp as the one on my home screen even though im using the same picture. Any ideas?

Most likely you have the "Ripple Effect" enabled, just go into lock screen settings and disable it.

Ive tried the method u told me and it does help a bit, still not as clear as if I use the picture as home screen but better that if I have the ripple effect on. Thanks for the great advice.
