Hello,
this is pretty annoying but everytime I open camera app to take some pictures or videos the brightness of the screen jumps to max and stays there until I exit the app... Is there any way to disable this? I want the same brightness I have set. If I go out in the night the screen is very bright and eats my battery like crazy..you dont need max brightness in camera app when there is no sun in the sky...
Is there any way, modification, xposed module, flashable zip, anything that can help with this?
Thank you very much for answers, any kind of help is appreciated...

Is there a way to make the browser use the system brightness setting? I don't use auto-brightness and don't want to manually adjust the browser brightness every time I use it.

+1 I want to know too. I wouldn't even really bother if you can set both the same, but since they don't display a % on how bright it is you can't get it the same. You can set the display brightness to exactly 50%, but the browser either goes a bit dimmer, or a bit brighter than 50%. Ugh
I realized that after taking a picture and than viewing it in the camera mode the picture looks bright. But when you switch over to viewing the same picture in gallery, the picture now looks darker. Why is this?
I was wondering too. I think it might be because in the camera app the screen brightness is turned to max and in the first preview screen (which is utterly useless and annoying imo) you are still in the camera app and hence max brightness. When you go to the gallery app afterwards, you're reset to your normal brightness which I assume is lower because no one runs at 100% brightness.
Edit: indeed it is. Turn yourself to 100% brightness and the picture remains constant.

Thanks. No wonder the picture always looks darker in the gallery. It all make sense now.

What do you mean..... "no one runs at 100%" ? I do and I am sure many others do too.
Hi, I noticed that the camera app doesn't keep the setting for the auto contrast.
After quitting the app, it's turned off and I've to switch it on everytime.
The auto contrast is really cool, it let me take better photos and I waste less time in photoshop to fix the contrast.
Any help to fix the issue?
up ?! :good:
Hello Together,
at night, when i am reading in bed or surfing with chrome the display is too bright.
Is there a app or tweak to reduce the minimum screen brightness?
I would prefer not to use an app with a filter overlay. It should really reduce the brightness.
I have read about such an feature with ElementalX Kernel. It did not worked so I changed to stock again.
THANK YOU,

Just disable adaptive brightness and adjust it manually to your liking.
Download the app f.lux , it sure makes the screen easy on my eyes at night
Thanks for your ideas.
Manual brightness lowest setting is no difference.
And i installed f.lux. I do Not like the settings.
Are there further ideas/possibilities?
What did not work with elementalx?
Did you install the kernel correctly and enable the backlight dimmer option? Works for me
Download this xposed module and lower the minimum brightness level.

ElementalX kernel has a feature which allows you to dim the display to a lower value than by default, you may want to check it out.
Try Twilight app
I found an app on Google Play called " TWILIGHT
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.urbandroid.lux
You set the time of day for the phone to dim - early in the morning and late at night. It dims the screen but also shades more reds on the screen as it's better for your eyes before sleep to decrease the bright lights. Been using it for 6 months and I like it. Occasionally - I get a warning of "screen overlay" when I'm using sime new apps that modify phone settings, but you can pause the app to modify settings - and reactivate the Twilight.
Give it a try..
MY issue with the stock Rom, which has been bugging me for a while is that when I reduce the brightness to the minimum, the Contrast changes, or something of the sorts, this really annoys me and I would like to disable it. Can someone help me out? I really don't want to flash a custom ROM.
I think that's normal because of AMOLED display, I also noticed it on CM14.1
This is simply the way this particular screen works, can't be fixed with software.
You can only avoid it by not reducing brightness as much. According to "Lux" the color shift starts under 4% brightness.

But why does the min brightness in mxplayer not have this issue?

Because mx player doesn't set the brightness as low as you can set it manually using the brightness slider.
Select menu - display - settings - screen - untick "brightness". Now you can set your brightness manually to even lower using the brightness slider.
Other apps seem to work similarly (for example an third party brightness widget)... Not setting it to minimum... Like they don't recognize the "real" minimum brightness - which is lower. I don't have this "issue" on my tablet. Haven't looked much into it though.
