Are there any existing mods for the 5t notification slider? Preferably something to change it all together like screen brightness : normal >adaptive>night?
I personally find the ringtone volume settings useless, as I keep it on medium volume. But I do change work shifts monthly and it makes setting a screen brightness schedule more of a task.

I'm looking to mod the brightness settings that appear in either the power control widget or the notifications widget. Specifically I want to either add or edit one of the current ones so that I have a auto/90% (or some other % of my choosing). The closest one now is auto/dim/100%, but that's one more step than I need. Sometimes the room is just a touch too dark and the light sensor is causing my display to be too dim for whatever task I need. Anyone able to lend me a hand as to what I need to edit (if this is doable, which I see no reason why it shouldn't be)?
I honestly don't know of any way to get a truly "custom" level (like 90%) in the notification dropdown settings. I know with CM7 you can select what brightness levels it will toggle between. You can also control brightness by sliding left or right on the status bar. MIUI also has a brightness toggle in the dropdown menu, when its not on automatic there's a slider for screen brightness.
Hello,
There is currently a mod floating around in the development forum that lets you change the lowest brightness setting for the screen when in automatic mode.
Does anyone know if it is possible to adjust the brightness of the soft buttons also? Would be nice to have those change brightness depending on ambient light too as they sort of bleed through the bottom of the screen when its dark for me.....
Roger that! I am also eagerly expecting a mod to change the capacitive button brightness.. Its so bright and distinct when I match movies!

..yeah thats also possible, its in the same file.
My screen dim level is at 1 and my phone is still too bright. How could I reduce this even further so that sliding my brightness toggle in the notifications bar all the way to low will reduce the brightness even further? Is there not an option or a mod that allows you to pretty much dim your screen to complete darkness?

I see screen filter, the only problem I have with it is its persistent notification. As far as I can see there's no way to remove it. If I could get rid of the persistent notification I would set it to boot with tasker.
Suggestions to remove from notification?
Try lux auto brightness not sure if it has persistent notification or not.

I know about lux too, but it's not what I need.
Is there a way to lower the brightness set by the kernel or is this unchangeable?
Download screen calibrator and it works like a charm, you can also remove the icon from the status bar
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda app-developers app
I looked into this too, I believe the only option is screen filter or anything like it.. which makes no sense to me.
Lower brightness = better for eyes+battery

Yeah I actually prefer the dropdown notification built into AOKP roms for brightness, but the lowest brightness is too bright. In a room with lights off, reading the amazon kindle before bed is pretty discomforting if you're trying to ease into sleep. Way too bright.
Apparently the only way to do it unless the screen filter author comes up with a way to get rid of that persistent notification/load on startup is to kernel hack, and personally for someone who isn't a developer/programmer, I wouldn't touch an opensource code with a stick
I have the same problem. The lowest brightness is still too high to read something with the lights off.
Hey, I think I actually found something.. do you have cm10? If you do, you can turn on screen filter normally then go to settings > apps > screen filter and uncheck "show notifications". That took away the persistent notification for me.
I don't know if you can do this in aopk.
i have a great solution (with a notification-so i will try your suggestion 386 once my rom is done backing up), but want to make my own personalized "build (apps, tweaks etc) thread". Where can I make it without getting slapped by the mods? In the galaxy s3 general thread or since most of it is can be done on different android phones in the the overall general thread?
Like many others I really dislike all the wasted space on the stock Samsung notification panel. While I haven't found a way to remove the buttons, I did find a way to remove the brightness slider.
Download and install Lux Light - After enabling it, Lux Light will replace the system brightness slider in the notification panel with its own.
Enter the Lux Light settings and disable the persistent notification. - Under Advanced, uncheck Persistent notification.
Enjoy.

Thank you for this. Since this can control the screen temperature that makes another reason I don't need root.
Is there a way to brighten the ambient display, such as the clock and notifications that appear? I can barely see it in the sun. I had no problem seeing my moto z play in the sun.

If you go into settings / display there is a brightness slider that you can use to manually set the screen at a brighter level. I'm not sure if that recalibrates the base Android uses in its ambient settings or not. If you just are used to a brighter screen and find that the ambient setting continues to make the screen dimmer than you like after using the slider you can just turn the ambient display feature off entirely. I personally like the feature but a lot of people don't and just turn it off.
There are also apps in the Play Store that allow you to manually adjust the screen brightness without going into the settings menu, if you want to have easier control over it.

I know that the AOKP ROM allows alot of modifications to the ambient display brightness settings. Other ROMs may do the same but I know and use the settings on AOKP. It's a very good ROM! Native settings don't have the options.
AOKP and Pixel Dust are the two roms I know of that have this option.
You don't need a ROM to kick in higher brightness on auto brightness.
Just root and install ElementalX kernel or one based on it.
Then install this widget and once toggled, it will give you way more max brightness on auto brightness.

I noticed that my wife's phone has significantly brighter ambient display. They have identical settings as far as I can tell. So I'm not sure but I would love to find out the answer cause I want mine brighter too
Go to advanced display settings and toggle off the option to wake the screen with new notifications, then turn off the lift to view gesture. Your ambient display should brighten significantly.
