[Q] Set auto-brightness by default on F400 - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Every time I reboot my G3, it starts off at 90%-100% brightness. I did tap the "Automatic Brightness" button during my session, but upon starting up the phone again, it returns to the near maximum brightness. How can I set automatic brightness as default? The rest of the other notification panel buttons are all ok though. Thanks.

Thanks, but the description says it "only restricts from brightness getting being decreased by the system and nothing else." My concern is having max brightness every time, though I would rather start up my phone at half or automatic brightness.

isn't the same!
You can set it to leave the screen on dim when it's plugged in, but I don't think that's what you mean is it?

dimming

is there a dimming option on this phone?
sometimes after a real short period, the screen will go dim
but as soon as you touch any part of the screen it will go back to normal brightness
where is the dim setting for this?(to set the amount of time to wait before dimming screen)
When it dims, check under Settings > Brightness and see if it warns you about Overheating.
If it does, check my thread.
If not, it may be the power saving options also in Settings > Display.
While not a timer, you can make manual adjustments. Turn off auto brightness in display settings. Then, to increase or decrease brightness, place your finger on the status bar and slide it left or right.

[Q] Auto Adjust Screen Tone setting missing.

My Xperia ZL keeps dimming its screen automatically every time when the phone gets warm, it's very annoying since it happens on my previous Xperia S as well, I can't find "Auto Adjust Screen Tone" setting or check box in display settings.
How can or can I disable the Auto Adjust Screen Tone on my ZL?
As far I'm aware, It's in the Display>Brightness setting, and turn off "Adapt to lightning conditions".

There should be two different settings on android, Adapt to lightning conditions n Auto adjust screen tone.
tone

There are two factors that automatically adjust screen brightness.
First is based on ambient light. It will set backlight brighter if you are in brighter place, and dim it if you move to dark. It could be controlled or even disabled in "display" settings menu.
Second one is "dynamic contrast". It sets brightness of backlight based on currently displayed image. For example "dull", low contrast image will have backlight reduced to save power, while image with more contrast will have brighter backlight. This can't be switched off or controlled by any apps, from what I know even custom ROMs still have it on, probably it's hardware-controlled.

[Q] Set default screen brightness

Every time I restart the LG G3, it constantly returns to 100% full brightness. It's not hard to click on the Automatic light button, but I don't want the phone to constantly be at full brightness upon reboot. Is there any way to reverse this?

Screen keeps auto dimming even when set to 100% - Eonon 5.1.1

Hi everybody, I recently updated my Eonon Androud HU to 5.1.1 using the first 5.1.1 custom ROM listed here. The DSA Prerooted ROM. Thus far it's been functional and fits my needs over the Malaysk ROM. However this ROM has some sort issue with it automatically dimming the screen to low, even though it's been set to 100%. When sliding the brightness slider to 100, the screen will still dim on its own, regardless of the adjustment still being set at 100%. I have gone through all the settings and found nothing that can help me. The display submenu only displays the option "Brightness". Which is just the standard slider to adjust the brightness. There is no option for Auto, Low, Bright, etc.
I've downloaded some apps to control the brightness to see if that would help, but something on this ROM is overriding any brightness apps from working. I even tried installing an xposedMTC module as it had an automatic dimming option, hoping to deactivate it completely but no luck. The way my car works is my headlights have an automatic DRL. When I turn my DRL's off, the headunit seems to activate it's full brightness, until I turn the automatic light control back on which turns on my DRL's, then the screen goes dim again. It's as if the headunit is going by the whole "Oh your headlights are on, it must be dark outside. Let me adjust the brightness to low for you".
Any help would be appreciated. I hope it's a simple fix. Thank you!

That's one of the main differences between Malaysk and DSA. DSA told me look out the window and figure it's night time. Secondly he told me to go to max at least two or even three times in a row. It will then STAY 100% bright till you reboot.

Whoa, thanks for the quick reply and useful information. Is there absolutely no way to bypass having to do that method? As that would be a chore doing it multiple times after exiting and entering my car multiple times a day. Maybe a simple build.prop edit possibly? Just naming ideas.
There is... Mtc manager has settings in it for brightness settings due to time. You can turn it off there. This didn't work for me so I went another route with changing some file. Its all detailed in the thread as to how.

You could disable brightness control entirely or just alter the brightness levels.
It's in file /system/etc/install-recovery.sh - at its end, comment out all 14 lines after comment line reading "#Brightness control (last, always)", in order to disable the algorithm.
OR, change line reading "nb=5 ### Night Brightness ###" to a different value for the night brightness (nb), eventually equal to day brightness (db, on next line).
Use a root explorer, or edit a copy of file on PC (with notepad+ if on Windows) and copy it back - with a root explorer or manually, if you can. File mode: 0755, owner & group: root:root.
If script /system/etc/install-recovery.sh gets "damaged", you must reinstall the firmware, but with NO wipe all, so fairly quickly and no loss of settings and apps.
Editing of script could also be done with @devilsoft app (with a name I can't recall).

Hi @brian117 !
In fact, there is a simple fix I found lately.
You need to enter factory settings first.
Go to SETTINGS -> Factory settings -> enter code: m123456
When you're there, go to last page, and tick the "Key light" option.
Now press "Apply" and "Exit". Confirm reboot.
It worked with me - now the screen has full brightness regardless of the car lights on or off (in Poland we need to have the lights on whole day, as well). Now you can use a software dimming, like MTC to auto dimm the screen according to actual day time. I did this. Works like a charm! (I set dimming after sunset to 75% brightness)
