Lowering screen minimum brightness - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to lower the minimum brightness of the screen?
I have tried several app, but even the rooted ones seemed only to create a filter of black pixels.
I'd like to actually lower the brightness, not simply create a filter.
I've tried Lux Auto Brightness, CF Lumen, but they didn't seem to work the way I want.
Can anyone help me please?

Try the autobrightness mod on these forums. It's here somewhere. There isn't a way to lower the screen lower than it can physically go without overlaying it.

Thanks mate. I tried this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/development/mod-lower-autobrightness-values-t3054000, but I can't really tell if it works or not, I'm gonna test it better once I get home!

Screen Filter
This is the best i've tried.

Thanks for your answer, but Screen Filter seems to work by overlaying black pixels on the screens, that's not what I want. It is the perfect app if you have an amoled screen, but on the LG G3 isn't the best...

I see. I use it to read in my bead at night.
You seek for real hardware reduction. Good luck in your quest...

I use root dim (root) works pretty good at night

These are typical settings for any camera that will accept manual settings.
White balance basically measures the color 'temperature' to get the most accurate colors possible.
ISO is light sensitivity. It can be altered from automatic for different lighting situations manually.
I believe metering is the location the camera will take a sample check for lighting level to give the best overall light balance for the WHOLE picture. For instance, center is default and if there were a lit light bulb in the center of the picture you are taking, it would correct the lighting of the entire photo just based on that area.
deff the type of answer i was looking for..so there is no optimal setting for those reasons, correct? is there a camera app that automatically attempts to set most options for best picture/results that anyone knows of our would recommend? thanks
ps. any thought from anyone on the auto contrast setting or any other important but not mentioned setting?

Typically, most of these settings are set to Auto to make it easy to take photos. Most amateur and pros will adjust the settings manually to get the best possible picture.
The settings can be changed manually to adjust for different environments.
I guess a good example would be a dimly lit room. You can take a picture with the flash and it may be an acceptable photo. However, if you know what settings to use (and it's a good quality camera), you do not need the flash and the quality of the photo will be completely different. This is also why you see professional photographers use several light stands to provide more indirect lighting because using a flash can wash out and cause unpleasant shadowing effects in photos.

How to hide green label of direction GMaps?

I use Android 9 on my radio and the latest GMaps. When I start to navigate the big green label of directions covers 60% of the screen. How to delete it or turn it off? Thank you in advance

The culprit is likely your low screen resolution. Try to cram more content on the screen by increasing the DPI density. Here's some pointers:

Be careful though. Going too crazy with those settings may result in some elements or buttons showing off screen.

You're wrong! I already found the problem. The problem is in the new GMaps not in the resolution. A lot of users complain for this problem. I installed a lower version of GMaps and everything is good now.

That doesn't make me wrong. My suggestion may allow you to use the newer version on your low resolution screen by scaling everything smaller.
Just for the records, the current Google Maps looks just fine on my device.

What kind of device do you use? The newest version of GMaps works badly on horizontal view. Maybe it works on some phones not on the Android Radios.

Forcefully Enable Always on Display Mi 10T

Is there any way to forcefully enable AOD on Mi 10T? Via build.prop or tweaking MIUI itself; I just want to try this while my phone screen is off, that's all

It's a fun novelty, we should all admit.
I tried installing the Always on apk from the m10 on my 10T but nothing changed.
Then I changed my region to India (global rom) and the AOD option appeared in settings but when I applied it, nothing happened.
Always on displays are only available on OLED screens that can illuminate single pixels. LCD will never have always on displays so this thread needs closing.

LCDs are never meant to have AODs, yes, I get the whole point out of it, but My point is, there are ways that other MIUI devices, i.e., RN9Pro curtana, with a lil bit of flashing some AOD Mods thru Magisk have proven that MIUI AOD can be enabled, what I'm trying to convey is that, os there anyone here, with the knowledge and enough curiosity that could help people like me to enjoy a bit stupid but fun way of "messing around" with the android framework, that's all. You don't need to "Close" this thread.
Honestly, ain't anyone here amazed by that MIUI AOD? It consumes power because we have an LCD panel, yes, but we can turn it off anytime. It's both the novelty and satisfaction that gave birth to this stupid but curious idea.
It's not that much of a novelty, i had aod 10 years ago on several phones... It just comes to the fact that you don't really don't need that
si think this is a good idea! probably all LCD displays know aod handling. It just doesn’t allow it because of the brutal reduction in energy use!
Iomarius said:
LCD 永远不会有 AOD,是的,我明白了全部要点,但我的观点是,其他 MIUI 设备,即 RN9Pro curtana,通过 Magisk 稍微闪烁一些 AOD Mods 已经证明了可以启用 MIUI AOD,我想传达的是,这里有任何人,有知识和足够的好奇心,可以帮助像我这样的人享受有点愚蠢但有趣的方式来“玩弄”安卓框架,仅此而已。您无需“关闭”此线程。

Question Front camera always visible

The front camera of my Z Fold 3 is always black, it shows as a black drop whenever I am watching a video, browsing internet etc. I cannot find any configuration related to this behaviour. Maybe it’s malfunctioning? Any ideas?

Sorry I meant the inside under display camera. It’s never hidden. I will try Samsung support, thanks for the help.
If you have good lock check setting in MultiStar > I Galaxy Foldable > UDC with black. If you enable this, under display camera will alway show on screen.

Question Rainbow color while charging

Just got a OnePlus 11 and noticed this rainbow screen when phone is charging. Is anyone else getting that too? I can't seem to figure out how to stop this or change it.
Thank you.

It’s a screensaver. I Do not have this device or brand, but try searching settings for screen saver.
I have looked in all sections. There is no screensaver section. I had thought it was perhaps Google Ambient mode but it was not that either. Just weird.
Is it Day Dream?
Settings > Display > Day Dream and press off
No such setting. Still looking for a solution.
Did you ever find a solution? I have the same phone and same issue. No daydream no screen saver, can't find a setting to turn it off or change it.
Have you installed Google Clock?

Nope, this is right out of the box it started doing it.
Almost looks like when screen is messed up...try power down and plug in charger...see if get circle with lightening bolt
Clearly a software issue. Maybe a stock or third party launcher or different app settings, battery monitor/manager app?
Hey! Did you manage to solve it?
I'm having the same issue. The preferred behavior would be to turn of the screen with the same settings as when is not charging.
I didn't find any screen saver/ambient mode/colours option.
Thanks in advance!

did you enable this? if so, deactivate this then the display should also go off again when you Charge your phone

Nope, I have it disabled.
That option keeps the screen on when it's charging, but what it's happening is that the rainbow screen saver (I think the name is "colour") is showing up. With that option, the screen saver never shows up.
But thanks for your help!
If the item is not in the settings, then you can launch it through the Activity Launcher
