Way to change adaptive brightness level to be dimmer?

Hi, is there a way to tune the default adaptive brightness level? i find it abit bright at time. It will be good if there is a way to lower down certain % from the default brightness level.
I also facing brightness level auto ramp up randomly when unlocking the phone even when adaptive brightness was off... any help would be appreciated! :fingers-crossed:

As far as I know, some third-party kernels have this function built-in. Such as ElementalX kernel and Franco kernel. But another popular kerbel blu_spark does not support it.

Brightness Issue in Yureka

Hi All ,
I have brightness issue in my YU Yureka phone . I don't know how , but my phones brightness level was set to low . then I tried one method suggested here to flash a torch on phone and reset the brightness level . It worked for a while but now my brightness level is set to full but still mobile screen in very dim (very low brightness) . Does any one know how to solve this

Screen Brightness/Darkness not as low as before after Nougat Update

There was a display option in Marshmallow to set the brighness extra low. With Nougat Update this option seems to be replaced by an brightness protection option. This new option gives the screen an orange color and is not as dark as the option before. The autobrightness seems to be set higher at lowest brightness too. - Is there a way to get back the Marshmallow settings without xposed modules like gravity box? I bought the P2 for reading ebooks and this would save a lot battery time. I read in one review that this phone offers the option to set the lowest brightness which could be measured in no other phone test before.

auto brightness too low

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.

Question Adaptive Brightness - Disable maximized "Sunlight Mode"?

Hello!
I bought a Base S22 a few weeks ago and so far, I'm loving this device. But one thing that bothers me is the adaptive brightness implementation from Samsung, because its not really "adaptive". Even on some cloudy days, the brightness gets maximized and I can not change it to a lower level, because I always get the "maximized for best viewing in bright light" notification. In all other scenarios the adaptive brightness algorithm works perfectly.
Is there a way to disable this kind of behavior?
My current solution for sunny days is a Bixby routine to quickly disable adaptive brightness when I'm longer outside to save some battery.

Use manual brightness control. Adaptive brightness never worked right... no surprise it still doesn't.

You can manually lower the brightness even in adaptive mode, and hopefully it will adapt to you too.
Another options are:
- Battery Saving mode has optional "10% lower brightness "
– Battery Guardian module of Good Lock (with dependencies!) may be configured to lower brightness when phone's temperature is high

That never works right either... The only draw back to full manual is finding the slider in bright light to jack it up. Auto is easier to temporarily use then. That said using the device in direct sunlight should be limited to seconds not minutes. Avoid whenever possible.
50% or less is best for battery and AMOLED conservation.
Using manual brightness control saves battery, display and your retinas

The problem is that the phone puts the brightness to the maximum and locks it there in bright light. Even when I use battery saving to lower the brightness by about 10%, it doesn't let me change the brightness to a lower level.
I don't know if this is just a thing on Samsung phones, because I heard that they use the adaptive brightness algorithm with KI from Google.

Which is why I use full manual control almost always. Invariably auto is many time too bright and has a tendency to "jump" around. Lol, human vision in much more adaptable and its nearly seamless.
The brightest stars burn the quickest... my plan is to have a display that's perfect for the life of my heavily used devices which likely will be in excess of 4+ years. Batteries are easy and cheap to replace, the displays aren't. Samsung's plan is to sell you a new phone every year.
