[FACT][TIP] SONY XPERIA S Auto Brightness - Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion

SONY XPERIA S's Auto Brightness is always on, so there's no need for some application to do that for you.
TEST : Press your DIAL icon and type this code : *#*#7378423#*#* : Press Service tests : Scroll down to : Ambient Light Sensor : Press it and you should see some values. Now put your finger on the sensor and those values will change. Now you know the sensor is working OK.
The build in Brightness which is in Settings/Display should be set over/or to 60%, if it is set under that value the auto brightness will not be ''AUTO''
And of course you can do a test in broad daylight, when the sun is up
Put your finger on the sensor and see the step by step brightness difference/changing.

Well the point for this is that I saw so many threads about Auto Brightness apps, modes, tweaks and some other stuff, that are irrelevant when you know that the Auto Brightness is ON and ALWAYS working. The Auto Brightness is ON, so there is no need for some application occupying space on the phone, to do what your phone already is doing by itself.
And you're right, that's not a secret menu, but it's not a sub/menu in Settings either

The proof is in my first post. But more easy, go out in the sun, put your finger on the sensor and the brightness will decrease automatically and vice versa.

He is right, but auto brightness works with 30% and up of a brightness.

The best value is 60 %. Any value under that will not make much difference regarding Auto Brightness.

I keep my phone on 30-40% and i can clearly see that auto brightness works and makes huge diference.
Also IMO 60% is to hell bright, and i can bet you barrelly can use display more then 2:30-3:00 hours.

Keeping the level at 60 %, which is the default setting will not drain the battery that fast. Under that, as you stated that you are keeping it at 30 %, well, in a few years you will need glasses. It's a smartphone,with HD screen resolution, let it do his job, make the best of it. Normal level is 60 %, not 100 % but for sure not 30 %

Can you cite any scientific data to support your claim of loss of vision due to chronic use of low backlight screens or are you repeating a myth that our grandparents told us when we tried to read a book in darker rooms? All you can get from extreme cases is temporary eye muscle fatigue, nothing more.
http://science.howstuffworks.com/life/human-biology/reading-in-dim-light.htm
Another thing, I have done some endurance tests concerning impact of backlight on battery life and between 30% and 60% there is a substantial difference (few hours) in battery life.

Temporary eye muscle fatigue it's already SOMETHING you can GET from low light reading,right? But anyway,the truth is always somewhere in the middle. The point is that there is no need for an application to handle the Auto Brightness.
THERE IS A TRUTH IN EVERY MYTH!!!

This thread is about Auto Brightness. I will ignore all off-topic comments.

I'm listening to your comments, and I put my brightness on 60%.
I know that the auto brightness is working, I've tested it many times. The best test to see something is to put the phone under a light bulb. You'll see the screen going brighter.
I'm curious why to put on 60%, I always have my phone on low brightness. When it's sunny, it brightens up itself.
Cheers

Give it a try, 60 % it's the default brightness on SONY XPERIA S. The phone's battery will not drain,and you'll see better what's happening on your smartphone screen
Best of luck.

Set it how you want it, this 60% perfect and non battery draining setting is bulls*it. It's just an original preset, that doesn't mean anything

Logic tells the less % the less battery drain.

[Q] Screen auto brightness frustrations

The screen auto brightness has always bothered me. I love the convenience of using it but it simply doesn't work like I believe it should.
For example. At night while laying in bed in a completely dark room I'd expect the screen to dim to it's lowest setting. When in actuality it does not, and it always seems to bright. On the other hand when I'm outside in direct sunlight I'd like for the brightness to be at 100%. Again this doesn't appear to be the case.
So what's the issue here? Is there a dev out there who has found a better solution?
I agree with you on this one. The automatic brightness on the EVO is just silly. Its lowest is 25%, by the way. There should be a way to choose what you want the minimum/maximum brightness to be :\
I've seen this question before, some time ago, but still no solution. I've seen someone say use total screen control trial (free in market) and tweak the filter settings to essentially do the dimming value you want.

I have been searching and searching for an answer to this. I don't want to have to use third party programs if I could just change the thresholds myself.
In Calkulins rom he says he lowered the maximum auto brightness to save on battery, and this question has been asked there, with no answer (except for the usual "just use this program to do it").
Someone has to know where the settings for this are. I'm getting more advanced at dealing with apk's, jars, etc... But I haven't been able to find which one controls this. Build.prop has some brightness settings in it, but it's just the default setting when not using auto-brightness (I think).
Anybody ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
I know it's possible, because Cyanogenmod has the option to tweak the levels in CM Settings.
I just know I've seen an app here on xda, but don't remember what it was.

Thanks for looking, but unfortunately I've been there already. It basically allows you to toggle between auto brightness and a variety of static levels, but doesn't affect the min and max of auto brightness when you are in that mode.
I'm trying to be able to leave the phone in auto brightness mode all the time and just have the screen get to it's max available brightness when I'm in a bright area, and minimum available brightness in a dark area.

I did a quick search too, but I couldn't come up with what I saw before. I remember thinking "neat, but I don't need that because it's built into the Rom". It's driving me nuts now too :/
You could always contact one of the devs from CM & find out what files need to be edited.
Basically it sucks. It actually drives to crazy so I just don't use it anymore. When I am on tapa I put the background to black so it's a bit easier on the eyes when I am laying in bed going through the forums before sleep

How to lower brigthness even further?

I was wondering if there is anyway to lower the brightness of the display even further than the lowest setting on Andriod. I realized I used the phone a lot in the dark ( i take long walks at night) and the lowest setting is still too bright for my eyes.
Anyone know an app or someway of lowering the brightness even further?
thanks in advance.

[Q] Could auto brightness be set more conservatively?

So as everyone knows our brilliant screen and auto brightness eat batteries like candy. Many people, understandably, disable auto brightness to conserve battery life. I haven't gone that far yet as I do use my phone in many different environments and enjoy the dynamic brightness. With that said auto brightness does set the brightness unnecessarily high.
Would it be possible to adjust auto brightness so that it still functions but sets brightness 10-20% (or a user specified value) lower than normally?
I'm not sure this would save as much battery as statically setting the brightness (is it the "auto" adjustment that drains battery or the brightness it sets it at?) but I'm sure it would be better than stock auto brightness.
You cannot do this from stock rom to my knowledge, but I'm sure there is a custom rom that will allow you to do this. You might have to search around a bit though.
I wrote an app that allows you to set custom auto brightness behaviour. You can check out the free version here.

Cool, question: will this actually reduce battery usage or possibly cause more by enabling so many extra features?
If you're willing to rebuild android from source you could try changing device/samsung/tuna/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/values/config.xml to have a more subtle brightness adjustment.
Or maybe running yet another app is easier in the meantime... But maybe someone who builds custom roms might want to hack at it...
The juice defender app has a schedule for brightness i believe, So it will come on automatic during the times frames you set..good luck

Why is it useless? I have been playing with it since yesterday and really like it, much better than system auto brightness. I don't really feel it's missing anything it the free version though I'm pretty sure I'll buy it just to support the developer. Very nice app.

Same here, it is a very nice app! I love how I can customize the brightness to match my environment and needs.
In my case, I selected "auto brightness inly on wake" in Lux Auto Brightness and it is draining battery. I paid for it but I am going to uninstall it.
Please Vito, let us know how to improve battery with Lux configurations. Thaks
While I can't provide any input on Lux, I also wrote an custom auto brightness application which can be found on Market here.
The market version isn't really good on Gnex though, you may just contact me and I'll send you the last dev version, it is now alright. I myself have a GNex and now it's alright. It would take me about 2 weeks till I'll be able to update Market version, most likely - there are enough things to add.

Fix adaptive brightness (all windows 8)

I customized a luminosity curve for my surface rt, just edit the registry keys.
Download extract and run the attached .reg file and confirm the insertion of the Keys, then reboot the system.
Alert to make a backup of the old keys if you want to restore the previous state.
This change is compatible with all windows 8 but I have tested only on the surface.
Adaptive brightness varies proportionally to the user manual brightness, I suggest to manually adjust the brightness bar to about 20%, if you place the bar at 0 the brightness will be minimal with no automatic adaptation.
Appreciated thanks
New version v2
New improved version.
Try it and tell me if it's okay.
In the zip you will find the normal version and one with more brightness in the dark
I suggest to manually adjust the brightness bar to about 25%
Someone asked me why I did this!
In my surface the luminosity curve does not satisfy me.
The display seemed to have only three levels of brightness, setting an average value (ie on the desk in the room in the morning) adaptivity did not fit values ​​for low-light (night) and lots of light, that is to say the brightness in the dark was not a minimum making it annoying for the view and unnecessary consumption of battery, instead with shaded light levels brightness became easily maximum, with again a waste of battery.
This forced me to move often the brightness bar manually, but now with my calibration does not touch more because it adapts automatically to any light condition.
Also the adaptation of brightness occurred after 3 seconds by the change of light, whereas now changes instantly in 0,1 seconds (100ms).
Awesome, didn't know windows could be modded to do this! On a more related note, isn't the update interval a bit too high? 30x faster than normal seems a bit excessive and the battery drain would be very much more. If it is not too much trouble, could you perhaps make a version that updates every 1 second? This way people can download whichever one suits them best.
Thanks
version 1sec
It is not the refresh rate of the sensor, but the time between changes in display brightness because of lighting conditions.
This parameter does not affect the battery consumption.
However, to keep you happy I attach the version by 1 second.
Tell me if the curve satisfy you in different light conditions.
Thank you, going to try it out now. What do you mean it is the time between changes of brightness? Shouldn't the brightness only change when the sensor detects it? Or is this a filtering via an average for the time period method?
Going to try out both of them to see the differences. Will report back here.
Back!: guess I understand what you are saying, the timing is just the gap between the different brightness levels, not the sensor reading. Sorry for the confusion caused.
I found the 1 sec one to not have a wide enough brightness range, but your original 0.1 sec one works perfectly. Using it now!
Thanks again!
Yes, is the time to change between the different levels of brightness.
1 sec or 0.1 sec, the luminosity curve is the same.
Just for curiosity on what hardware you have tested?
I'm using it on a surface rt. But now I notice in the dark, I can't manually increase brightness anymore. I didn't backup my registry either, but its okay.
Edit: I can edit the brightness manually if I disable the auto brightness under settings
more light night
My intent was never to touch the brightness bar!
In this version, setting the bar more than about 25%, I raised slightly the minimum brightness

Not so sure you have a hardware problem as both the stock autobrightness and Lux Lite use the same sensor to determining when the brightness requires adjustments. So I'm not sure what's going on. Well at least you have an alternative while you figure out what is really going on.

The auto brightness on the S tabs is useless. I think what happened is that they simply used the algorithm for brightness adjustment from the Galaxy phones but didn't adjust them to compensate for how dim the AMOLED panels on these new tablets go in comparison. Lux's adjustment actually works and I really like the app because it's one of the few that finally show you the actual brightness percentage.

After trying the free version I purchased the pro version. What I found is that I used two different profiles, the regular "Auto" (Day/Night) for indoors and "Cinema" for outdoors who's brightness is always higher the indoors. Swapping profiles is very easy. I even have a one brightness setting profile for watching videos with the lights off at night. So the pro version has been well worth it.

You are correct. That's how all of my Samsung devices work when enabled.
My auto brightness didn't even do anything. Didn't works since day one. When I turn it on.... it goes almost completely dark. It sucks.
I want to exchange it. But since I have 30 days with Amazon... I'm hoping the 32Ghz comes before I swap it.
Sm-t705, sm-t700
On the sm-t700 (WiFi) autobrightness works much better than on the sm-t705 (LTE-Version). I checked the hardware with CPU-Z and HW-Info apps.
The light sensor (type CM3323, Capella Microsystems) of the SM-t700 is rated max. 3000 Lux and the sensor of the t705 is rated up to 65000 Lux (type TMD3782 from AMS). I guess the algorithm or parameter settings are the same for both devices.... this might be why the prob is even worse on the 705.
!!! So if you respond to this thread always tell us which device you have !!!
- I am wondering if there is some kind of parameter file where the margins ... can be set (of course this would require root) ?
- I am anxious that an app like LUX would drain the battery more than the built in app ... what do you think ... ???

Drivers I'm sure are complied with kernel and parameters should be in source. Maybe also modification to ROM framework-res would also be needed. Remind me in a couple weeks time after I've updated the 8.4" kernel and released the 10.5" kernel. Maybe I'll have time to at least take a look.
Works just fine for mine.
