Galaxy S9 always on display brightness adjust - Samsung Galaxy S9 Questions & Answers

Good morning. I had a S8 and always on display light was very visible. Now i have s9 and the light is very low, like lg g6 and g7, but those phones are not amoled! can anyone tell me from where setting menu can i adjust? the light of display is set as automatic, i hope there is a separate menu for aod....
thanks

Settings > Lock screen > Always on display > Auto brightness

thanks, did, but confirm it is more low than galaxy s8?

This is the S9 forum

i speak about s9 phone... is the aod brightness very poor or is a my phone problem??
in this forum many users, like me had both phone and my answer is for a paragon with s8 but i speak about s9

but is possible that with auto brightness the notifications icons of always on display are almost invisible??? is this a problem not solvable? i never saw a super amoled display aod so unreadble.
what can we do?
EDIT:
the problem is the notification icons coloured. is possible to make the same colour of time? infact in galaxy s8 this problem was not there....

The collored Icons are a feature in Android Pie. Now the brightnes of the Icon depends on the App

Setting to disable dimming on white screens?

So the Lumia 900 dims the screen based on white pixel percentage (for battery) like the Focus and Focus S. Is there an extra settings option to disable this like on the Focus S?
What I'm asking is if there is an 'Extra Settings' category in the settings menu with a field called auto display intensity (like on the Focus S). Thanks.
I'm not seeing it. Today starts my 30-day trial to see if it can pull me away from my investment into Android and my HTC Desire..
I think you can just turn off the Auto brightness. There are no other display settings like on the Samsung WP7's
Sent from my Lumia 900 using XDA Windows Phone 7 App
Yeah, the screen looks a little dim on the auto setting. Someone said that is the way AMOLED screens are. When you disable the auto and change the setting to high, it looks great. I just wonder what the effect on the battery life will be.
I recommend disabling auto-brightness and setting to medium. I personally use low indoors and medium outside. Auto-brightness should be off to save power.
The original poster is correct. Even on Bright with auto turned off, the message area is grey'ish, but white everywhere else seems fine. I went and tested it with the Focus Flash, and it had the same behavior, except when you turn off the "auto display intensity" (or words to that effect) it goes white. I think the Nokia has the exact same behavior, except that we don't have a control to turn it off. I'm keeping my screen on bright to alleviate this, and I know it's hurting the battery to do so.

Auto brightness = dims based only on the ambient light sensor. Auto display intensity = dims based on % of white pixels on the screen.

Do you know of a way to switch the Auto Display Intensity?
Is there a fix to this? I got my Lumia today and when I opened the browser and loaded Google it seemed very dim. Even if you change the background of the phone to white instead of black, it looks almost grey and dimmer than some of the other whites on the phone. Is it a bug? Should I replace the phone for another one, or are they all like this?

"Feature" not a bug. Samsung presumably provides Nokia the AMOLED panel which has it programmed into the firmware. Samsung modified WP7 on the Focus S to let you disable it.

Auto Brightness Settings

I noticed that other Galaxy S4's have an adjuster for the auto brightness setting (-5 to 5) that way you can adjust how bright you want your screen to adjust. I was wondering if this is just specific for the tmobile version or all carriers? Maybe I'm just mistaken. Also notification led is kinda dull, any way to make it brighter?

Setting Always On Display - How?

Clock... etc... on AOD I see wrong. There is little brightness. Both when. Sometimes small brightness, sometimes more brightness. Why? My Adaptive Brightness is Off ...
On YouTube video, I can see (Galaxy S9) settings (brightness) by tapping the clock. It doesn't work for me. I have a new "A50" and I don't like this.
Do you know an application that solves this (brightness, font size)?
Thanks a lot...
(Samsung Galaxy A50, SM-A505FN/DS, A505FNXXU1ASBG/A505FNOXM1ASBG/A505FXXU1ASBB)
I am not sure but you understand it in the wrong way.
AOD may be set in 2 modes:
-always on
-on upon screen tap ( so maybe this is what you saw on S9 video)
There is no setting how bright it is - just factory default
BTW if you could set the brightness up it will eat battery like hell
Yes-I have the "show always " mode turned on. On YT video I see "Brightness adjustment". I do not see this function on "A50"... Apparently I have a different version of "AOD ".
EDIT: + The clock color sometimes changes spontaneously. And the brightness is sometimes smaller, at other times the brightness is larger...
EDIT2: I Found that in daylight AOD shines a lot. There is little light In the darkness. This dependency cannot be manually set. Never mind. That's O.K.
I just got the A50 and have the same issues. The always on display - when set to "show always" is bright enough when in a well lit area, but when theres not enough light its too dim. It changes brightness level automatically. I have the adaptive brightness turned off. I have tried various setting and still the same result. I have the S10e and there is a setting to adjust the brightness level on the AOD, but it appears to be absent on my A50. I have also noted that the latest version on my A50 (AOD) is 4.2.51.3 and on my s10e it is 5.1.38.3. Should it be the same on both devices ? Any advice would be appreciated.
AOD uses adaptive brightness but its frequency is a lot less than normal usage.

I'm quite sure that is the intended behaviour for the AOD (automatic color and brightness changes throughout the day) to avoid burning the AMOLED panel.
In fact, even though modern OLED displays have improved its durability a lot, it's still not recommended to keep the screen on at all times in the same spot, especially under the sun.
Can anyone tell me the latest version of their AOD on the A50 - it is under settings under AOD - About Always On Display - that will tell you the latest version installed.

Redmi Note 5 AI auto brightness doesn't work after 9.0 PEI update

Hey guys, I wanted to ask you guys, what is the problem with my Redmi Note 5 AI/Pro after Android 9 update?
I have a rare problem with my Redmi Note 5 AI/Pro/Globle version. The problem is that, my device does not adjust it's screen brightness even it's set to auto brightness control. And the peculiarly is that it goes down automatically if i adjust it to higher level and auto brightness is active but it does not come up even if I go to eclipse.
Mine works but it's still way too dim and reduces automatically after a while even if I force it brighter manually. I thinks it's related to pie adaptive brightness which can't be turned off in miui currently.
There's a magisk module (miui auto brightness) that helps a bit - it limits how dark the phone gets but the behavior is the same.
I've seen more than a couple bug reports related to that on miui forums, maybe they'll fix it.

Same here, have to do it manually.
Auto brightness works fine (brightness slider moving slowly but brightness adjustment is as expected in auto brightness mode)

Android Pie use a different algorithm to adjust brightness, it now encourage you on manual adjust the brightness yourself and AI will try to learn it instead of the old traditional sensor brightness.

Well I don't know what Google did with adoptive brightness or ambiant display but my Redmi Note 5 is just not working with this new feature and I don't know how to go back on to my older settings. This only forces me to every time go and adjust my display brightness manually. The worst thing is that i have to adjust brightness in the bright day light, like when i come out from a dark place and i just want to check any update I can't see my screen at all until I adjust the brightness to up. And to my surprise, sometimes when I scroll down the brightness bar to adjust it to an upper level I can see the bar is on the highest level but screen brightness has been lower from somewhere else, which I can't understand.
Somebody give me any good reason for Xiaomi's new auto screen brightness control system on Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 AI after PEI update, why should I have it on my mobile when I have to adjust the screen brightness manually every time I want to check my mobile for anything. Either it's on #Xiaomi's part or #Google's but I don't want it on my device.
I can confirm that, with the 10.3.1.0.PEIMIXM rom the auto brightness function not working properly, it's horrible!

Question Display issues?

Im having what I think is display issues!
Washed out colors. Auto dimming of display. And what seems to be stuttering!
Anyone have experienced the same and any possible fix?
K have installed the latest update v4.15
Auto dimming is controlled by the auto slider on the drop down menu. You can also turn on the button on the top left side, and control it that way. As for washed out colors, you control the display in the display settings like a tv. You can make it any way you want. The display on mine is right up there with a LG OLED cx, and better than any Samsung phone I've had.
