I've noticed with my GNEX that it seems like all of the sudden it won't auto dim. When I unlock the device it will brighten if needed, however if I walk into a dimmer area it will not auto dim. Is this the normal behavior for the light sensor?
I'm used to my Xperia Play which would constantly adjust the screen up and down.
My auto-brightness setting sets the screen brightness lower than the lowest actual brightness setting regardless of whether I'm in light or dark.
There's a fix for it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377410&highlight=auto+screen+brightness
I haven't tested that out though.

Yea I was worried maybe the brightness sensor was not working since. Turns out my wife's droid 2 with CM7 acts the same way. Lowest setting until you unlock at which time it only increases the brightness, never decreasing.
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.
hey guys,
im having trouble with adaptive brightness since some time and i am pretty sure sth has changed there.
my screen is just to dark for the most time.
some time ago i could just increase the brightness value and the adaptive brightness would work with that (higher) value, like an anchor value.
now, by doing that, i just change the overall brightness and it will jump back after some time.
is this the same for you guys? it gets obviously when being in a dark room and ramping up the brightness (with adaptive brightness enabled) to 100 percent. now when i disable adaptive brightness, exactly nothing changes in terms of brightness, however former times, there would be still an increase in brightness since 100 percent with adaptive brightness does not equal 100 percent on manual brightness (at least in a dark place). now it does.
is this the same for you? was this an update or sth?
latest stock pie, with caesium kernel.
Something in kernel settings?

nothing set in settings.
also just tried another one, kikasura or how it is callled. same thing.
just that we are on the same page here: you still can increase the anchor value in brightness settings. or will it, too, just increase your overall brightness for a short time and as soon as lights change or you lock the screen it will be back to previous values?
I stop using auto brightness because some times he is crazy.
I prefer manual mod, like this I have the hand on it and i consum lot less battery (It's my feeling)
Adaptive Brightness is still working fine for me. The way I like to "calibrate" it is when in pitch dark, I set it all the way down to 0. From there it'll always go maximum when in sunlight and indoors it's somewhere in between and does fine. If that's not enough, try resetting adaptive brightness:

It is happening the same to me on very low light scenarios, auto brightness will go to the lower value, setting the screen without almost no bright, besides I put it manually higher. Maybe this happened after a update I dont know.

Hey guys,
So as well know, maximum brightness can only be achieved when "Adaptive Brightness" is turned on, for reason of battery usage, temperature, burning, etc...
As far as I understand, if I stand outside, in the most brightest of suns and set the manual brightness to max, once I'll activate Adaptive, the screen should get even brighter, as the situation requires it.
However, that doesn't seem to happen at all. Am I missing something? Did I not understand how this function works? Is my display just not as bright as the common note display?
Thank you!
I'm in blazing sun and toggle AB on off and screen goes to about 20% brightness ..... ??!??
My display is a little dimmer than store units. Is there an app to increase brightness? I have it off adaptive and turned to max already.
