Hi
Not sure if anyone else has had the same problem or even come across it before but I've got a weird issue in that when I open the email client the screen dim making it more difficult to read the emails, come out of the email client and it brightens up again, ive not got auto brightness set and have tried factory resets but still it persists.
Phone is stock 4.1.2 but was doing this prior to stock update last night on 4.1.1. BTU unlocked handset
Any ideas?

This past week the stock Samsung internet browser app dims when opened. Then when I close it the phone goes back to the brightness level it was at before opening up the browser. only happens when using the Samsung stock browser. Anyone else having this problem?
Stock AT&T GSIII
Edit: Also wanted to add that this is not happening on my wife's GSIII.

Check display settings. There is an option to change the screen tone to reduce battery usage. Try unchecking that.

Thanks for the reply but just unchecked it and it's still doing the same thing. Even tried toggling on and off auto brightness and it still does the same thing. It's very strange.
Try turning off powesaver.

I'm chalking this up to a bug. I have a friend with an S3 with this exact problem. No amount of settings changing would fix it. I'm pondering doing a factory reset on his and seeing if that fixes the problem.
I was having the same issue. Turning off power save mode fixed it.

Its not a bug. I was able to make this happen or not happen by changing a few settings, but I don't remember which ones because I'm on AOKP.
But it definitely is a battery saving feature, so turn off all battery saving stuff and then try it.

The Samsung gs3 browser has its own display brightness settings that are independent of your screen brightness settings. While in the browser press menu and you should see a screen brightness option. You can select between 3 levels of brightness or set your own slider.
Thanks everyone...I found the culprit.
For anyone else having this problem, it is under the phone settings, power saving, I unchecked "Background color" which says "Change background color to save power in internet"

hi guys,
im having a problem with my note 2. The stock mail client and the stock browser (no chrome) has a blueish to darkish screen tone. its a little weird to be honest. As soon as i exit from the two apps, the screen goes to its normal tone and broghtness.
in the browser i have put the brightness to max but there is still a strange blueish tone..
does anyone know how to stop this?
youe help is much appreciated

I'm having problems with mine, my auto brightness has started to become sporadic in the last month. I always use mine auto with it set at 50% never had an issue before, it would change as per light conditions, I then would untick auto and get 100% brightness.
Well lately the auto brightness doesn't seem to want to change it just stays at same brightness even if I am in direct sunlight etc, I then have to put it to 100% just so I can see the screen.
Anyone else having same issue?

Hi, I did not see this "screen mode" item before, it seems the problem is gone by choosing the "dynamic" option !
Thank you very much
Bye

AHH THANK YOU, it was driving me insane! :good:
I have tested this with two of these phones and it is confirmed there for sure. I live in Miami Florida there is a lot of Sun here so I have no problem testing this. Within any app if I am in the Sun and it is directly hitting my screen and my keyboard is popped up my screen flickers it's not a super bad Flicker it's light but it's definitely there looks like your screen is blinking really fast. I'm going to try on as many of these devices as I can but can anyone tell me if they are experiencing the same?

I definately recall seeing it. I know exactly what you are talking about. I don't see it anymore so either my kernel (ktoonsez) fixed it or it was a bloat app.
I can confirm the issue on my I9500. Its not only limited when under the sun, also happens when you turn the brightness level all the way down. I'm still on stock kernel, maybe custom kernel may solve the issue. No settings in stock has mitigated or fixed this issue for me.
The people who are seeing this, have you turned off "Adapt Display" ?
