Does the Note2 have its own browser brightness setting like the S3 (I actually found the S2-S3 default dimmer browser brightness setting annoying, there should also be an option under general systems settings to have brightness setting go system wide)?
There is an option missing in the Note Browser called colour, the brightness control helps, but without the colour option to stop the filter coming on you'll have to use another browser or just wait to see if they add it in the next update.

You must have power saving mode on! It lowers screen brightness to a ridiculously low level when browsing! I love the feature coz it allows me 10 hours screen time instead of my usual 9.
I have good eyes so use it. I can deffo see why others would struggle with it on tho
There is the option adjust screen tone under display. That seems to dim whites in the browser and gmail

Has anyone tried this app for Nexus 4 (or at all)? I like the auto brightness feature, but the stock feature always makes the screen a bit dimmer than I like. Or another app that you prefer to do auto brightness?
Just go change the min value of autobrightness and will work just fine if you find it too dim.

You can change the min auto brightness with stock "APP"?
Where?

If you find it please let me know as well i'm also using lux for the same reason but if i could ditch it that would be great.
With root explorer you go to edit the build.prop values. You gotta be rooted.

It highly doubt it. Auto brightness levels are on kernel level.
just edit your build prop and add this line..
Auto Brightness = A bit higher please

Can you advise good stock settings? Just setting lux up, it tears though my battery. It doesnt seem to have any built in presets. Any way you can add a few to have a little base to start with?

I think the best solution would be like apple's auto brightness. You turn auto brightness on but can still change the brightness and set the "average" brightness higher or lower.
Because I am looking for a auto brightness which is simply a bit brighter in general as the stock auto brightness

Presets make no sense. I'd have to have different ones for different phones, so it'd be a pain to maintain. Just link a couple of brightness values and Lux interpolates the rest.
The battery usage of Lux shouldn't be high at all. I know some Samsung ROMs claim Lux uses a lot of battery, but it's wrong (I think it assumes the light sensor uses more power than it really does). On my Nexus 4 I use 'on wake' mode, which should use next to no battery.

I don't have control over the stock auto brightness which makes a feature like this hard. Linking values in Lux should work fine, especially in ascending mode which favours brighter backlight levels.
Anyone got any decent sample settings for this?
I'm using 0 as -20%
0/-30%, 1/10% and 10000/100% has been working good for me.
I've been tempted to try Lux again but find the free version doesn't really demo the apps potential very well. I'm always skeptical before purchasing apps as the refund window is way too short to test the app in full.
I basically want auto brightness to work how I feel it should, with the brightness not being high when it really shouldn't be very high. Stock auto brightness ALWAYS sets the brightness too high IMO, I'd love the ability to have auto brightness work at the levels I want it to have.
I tried it and put it away... Because when you go below zero your nav bar has still same brightness and won't dim :/

@ spr33
If you read the description of the app in play store, the developer says that you are welcome to try the app for more than 15min. Then if you are not happy with it send him an email and ask for refund.

Thanks for this app. Seems to be overriding system automatic brightness. Benefits are that you can set auto brightness to meet your requirements. Although it doesn't turn off back light keys for me.
I watch TV on my note 2 at night moat nights with pretty much no lighting anywhere near me and the screen just seems to bright sometimes. Is there a way to decrease the values? Does something like this already exist or can someone create something like this? I have seen mods that allow the increase of brightness but none to decrease it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Take a look at Lux Auto Brightness in Market... it has capability to use sub zero brightness for low light viewing
There are also screen filter apps that apply a transparent shade over the screen. I use lux, its great, but can be a pain to set up if you use auto brightness at all.

Screen filter is amazing. 23.5% works fine for me

There is an app called "Night Mode" it's simple to use and has worked better for me than the other screen filter apps like lux and others.

Hi,
I created a straight forward app to solve the problem I had with outdoor light.
Sometimes when I go to work I take out my phone , the screen brightness is too low, I barely see the settings all in all its a pain in the butt.
As I said it's straight forward you just click on the icon and it sets your brightness to maximum.
If your on auto brightness disable it otherwise the app won't workhttps://db.tt/2CfObAbN
