No brightness increase during HDR playback - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Every time I playback HDR content through YouTube, Vanced or the built in player the brightness doesn't increase automatically to full. When I increase the brightness to max manually then I get a pop up massage that "can't change brightness cause another app controlling it". I tried every possible combination on power modes/ screen options but no luck. Also on Vanced there is an option to automatically increase brightness to full when HDR content is displayed but doesn't seem to work either.. Any ideas?

Facing the exact same issue with my Note 10 plus. Tried all the possible power settings including adaptive power mode and even the video enhancer, but just not able to get it to work. The brightness goes up only for a second when I turn the phone from portrait to landscape mode and vice versa. I am sure this is a software bug. I think some issue with the Pie actually and not Samsung's Oneui because I had this issue even on my oneplus 7 pro.

Same issue here...

screen brightness does not go "full" brightness right away.

Hi I Just want to ask why does my Z5 P takes about a few seconds ( 8-10 seconds ) to achieve full brightness after turning on the screen from sleep. For example, after activating the screen from sleep and going directly to instagram, I noticed that my phone isn't on full brightness but instead a bit dim( lets say approx 70-90% bright if basing on the brightness slider in settings). As I scroll at the pictures, I can see it slowly going to full brightness after 8-10 seconds right before my very eyes. Is it supposed to really act this way? I find this very annoying and bothersome as this happen not only in instagram but in fb and browser as well.
By the way, I always set my phone on full brightness and the adaptive brightness disabled. Smart Backlight Control also disabled. So what gives????
Thanks.
I do not have such issues... Min to max it changes immediately.

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I'm not talking about the moment while youre moving the slider min to max or vice versa. What Im saying is that my brightness has always been placed at max with adaptive brightness turned off and yet when I activate the screen (for example to browse instgram or google chrome) , it doesnt go full brightness right away but instead takes approx 10 seconds to achieve the max brightnes (you can actually see the screen change it brightness right before you). I find this behavior weird. Can somebody do me a favor and try browsing instagram in a very dark room and observe if the event is also happening to your unit.
Thanks.

You are right if I set the screen brightness to minimum and turn on adaptive brightness it stays at minimum brightness... Must be a software glitch...

anyone else experiencing this. Still happening on my phone.
I just tried to do the following to see if I can repeat this issue as well.
Turn off adaptive brightness --> turn brightness to max --> load up a page on google chrome --> turn off display --> turn display back on
The screen was on max brightness every time I did this. Although I don't have access to a really dark room right now (in the office) but I can try again when I get home and see if this reproduces the issue.

Issues with changing resolution

This issues applies if you are using a launcher which has the google app on left swipe of the home screen. If you kept your phone on maximum battery saver mode (which uses 720p resolution) for a while and then changed back to 1080p or 1440p resolution, then the pics in the news articles appear distorted. The only way to fix it is to clear the google app data or reboot the phone. Is there any other solution?

How does HDR work on this phone?

Hi there, just picked up this phone and was wondering how HDR works on this phone, I'm asking because on my TV any HDR content that is viewed the screen goes to full brightness (backlight), I have tested HDR content on youtube and sometimes the screen does automatically ramp up to full brightness but it seems intermittent, and in Netflix it does not seem to affect the brightness at all? , do I have to manually change the brightness when watching HDR content?
Yes, change it yourself. They don't want you to blind yourself when you play a HDR video at night in the darkness.

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!

Display Brightness issue

The brightness randomly decreases/increases sometimes on stock miui rom.
I have 3 poco m2 pro and the issue occurs on two of them. Both of these were bought in July when the poco M2 pro was sold in its first sale. I bought the third one in October and the issue does not seem to be present there.
Basically brightness decreases randomly in certain apps. It can be reproduced with 100% reproduction rate in the following situations [keep brightness to max to notice it easily]
1.Launch camera app from homescreen. [more noticeable with white homescreen background] You'll see the brightness dip immediately. The brightness will increase back again to normal value after you close camera by pressing home/back button.
2.In Youtube, when you pull down the notification shade, you'll notice the brightness increases a bit [video must keep playing, paused wont work. Watch some bright video like Graham's explanation of the Gamestop stock video]
3.Open a doc in drive pdf viewer, hide the app ui by letting it stay for a while. Then trigger the ui by tapping on the pdf somewhere, the ui elements come onscreen and brightness also increases.
It also occurs in other apps but cannot reproduce reliably. I have darkmode on,Sunlight mode and auto brightness disabled and the forced dark mode for apps disabled.
Factory format does not help. I visited the service center as well, they took a bug report and said everything is fine. I have been back and forth from the service center and poco email customer service regarding this. They have formatted my phone several time but have been unable to fix the issue and insist nothing is wrong with the device, even though they do also agree that they notice the brightness dip/increase. I argued they should replace my devices if they can't figure out the issue , but they refused and as such now refuse me service at the service center. Please advice.
