Hi
Does anyone have a working solution on the non working Autobrightness of the 7T?
The built-in is wacky and very dim during day and it never learn my behaviors.
Thanks.
Auto brightness has always been bad on OnePlus devices, OnePlus doesn't seem to care much for it either.
As far as I know, there's no fix or anything for this

Any apps that can do the same or better than what OnePlus can?
Did you try resetting it?

Yes I did and reset phone once or twice. No luck.
I can only agree. The auto-brightness is just horrible. If OP doesn't fix it soon this will be my first and last OP!
Have any of you filed a bug report with One Plus? As complaining about here or on Reddit does no good and does not inform OP of the issue.
You could try this one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.velis.auto.brightness
Albeit I couldn't get it to work as I wanted. I guess it's old.
Lux is another. It's getting old too.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vito.lux
I used Lux on my Samsung phone when aosp had broken auto brightness and it worked magic.
On op7t I haven't been happy with neither.

Anyone experiencing any lag with the auto-brightness adjusting when you you turn on the screen? It's not all the time but sometimes my screen seems to stay pretty dim for awhile before adjusting.

Hello
I am a Sprint product ambassador I am experiencing the same issue. It happens occasionally and I wanted to let you know that I have sent the feedback to our device teams. Stay tuned. Thanks.
Auto brightness on this phone sucks big time. Its useless, either the screen is very bright or very dim. On my EVO lte auto brightness was kick ass. Its always gave me the right amount of brightness base on my light situation, while on this phone it only seems to have 2 settings.

Staying tuned as mine does this also. Its not a terrible issue but curious if there is a fix, thanks
As far as I know, there's no fix yet. But you may want to give Lux (workaround ) from market ago for now.

Have you noticed a significant battery drain with Lux? I'm assuming you need to disable the stock auto-brightness to use it right?

I was able to remove the icon in the settings.
Is there any way to remove the stock brightness slider from notifications? It's kind of pointless with Lux.

Gotcha. I haven't had any issues so far but I'll post in this thread if I do. I love this app! It's 10x better than the stock auto-brightness setting.
Is anyone else's 5t pretty sensitive and auto rotates at times you don't want it to just by a small movement?
So this is still driving me crazy, small movements continue to make the screen auto-rotate when trying to do something. Is there any way to calibrate the accelerometer?
Any answer for this?

this was allways an issue to me on all oneplus devices. Theycan fix this problem by simply raising the rotation trigger treshold. but i guess there are not venough complains. it should be possible with root too but i dont know exactly what file/line to modify.
Yep, I have locked mine to portrait mode which seems to be fine for me 90% of the time for me. I do hope they fix this though..

+100 but unfortunately seems most of the people (including oneplus) don't care.
Yep. I had a thread on this when it first came out.
I wish I could find an app that worked well enough to let me just pick and choose what I want to auto-rotate, but they all are a little flaky.
I've locked it to portrait. This is an OOS issue or all ROMs? Haven't dabbled with any custom ROMs yet, but if it can't fix this annoying issue, I'm all for it.
Had this on all the Nexus ROMs as well....always on portrait does it for me.
Just saw this in the articles section.

Could be worth a try.
I'm planning to buy this phone. But bugs keep me from buying it. I shouldnt spend $700 with stupid issues it shouldnt have. Hope you guys know of a fix....
1. Can I turn off auto brightness without rebooting? Why no toggle for it in status bar?
2. No dark notifications... why aren't notifications dark?
3. Why does the EMUI look so outdated?
4. Some features not working with 3rd party launchers like Nova. Is there a fix?
Dont mean to sound like an ass. But I shouldnt have to invest almost a grand for a phone with issues other phones dont have. Its ridiculous. If you guys have solutions to these issues please let me know. Hope to join the huawei family without them.
.
The fact thet you're here in XDA tells me that you play more with your phone than keeping it bone stock.
1 - Nope, auto brightness isnalways ON which I find stupid.
2 - There is Dark mode that turn the system UI black including Notification panel but not Notification Banner.
3 - I hate EMUI
4 - You can't change launcher on most recent update and there no fix to that. You can on older version like 9.1.0.120 but you need an unlocked bootloader and root.
So do your self a favor and stay away from any Huawei Device and go with Oneplus or Xiaomi
Have bought this phone (UK version) but yet to recieve it.
Not being able to change launcher, is that an issue just for the china version or the international version too on the latest update? That would be a biggie.
Also are there any issues with notifications not getting through all the time (an affliction a lot of Huawei phones suffer from). I had the Honor note 8 (Chinese) and this issue made it infuriating to use. A phone without notifications working properly is a dumb rather than a smart phone in my book.
Lastly one of the best bits about the Honor Note 8 was the ability to clear the notifications by double tapping on the finger print sensor. Do you have that on the Mate 20 X?

1. Can I turn off auto brightness without rebooting? Why no toggle for it in status bar?
Dunno, brightness never bothered me
2. No dark notifications... why aren't notifications dark?
who said that ? THEMES !! it comes will all sort of colors, just download huawei theme manager from playstore, it also including fonts as well
there is also a theme editor from the playstore where you mix and match and come up with your favorite theme all from your phone.
3. Why does the EMUI look so outdated?
because it is ! next month they are releasing a new version where they copied alot from OneUI, which is a good thing and they focused on smoothness and cleaner UI
4. Some features not working with 3rd party launchers like Nova. Is there a fix?
i am using nova, i think this is a chinese version issue not global

i have it for almost 4 months, and i got the note10+ with my renewal and trust me, i sold it without even opening the box. nothing comes close to Mate 20x as a complete package these days, its really fast, battery lasts forever, great screen, amazing camera, amazing charging speeds and one of a kind speakers.

What do you mean?? The notifications drop down is dark. But the notifications banner color is white! Is there any way to get this to turn dark? Does the Power Shade app work as a solution?

Are you sure about that? Auto brightness is disabled until after a reboot.

What I was saying is that one can turn auto bright off but it resets to auto of reboot, that's what I think.

Auto brightness turns on after every reboot but you can toggle it off. It stays off until you reboot the phone again.

PS: yeah, pretty sure not being able to change Launcher is only a Chinese problem. Cause I'm able to change it on my Mate 20 X in USA. I used to use Rootless launcher for quite a bit. But switched back because of the ? animations.
(Quite jealous of the OnePlus animations and gestures control. I miss them from my OP 5T)

Is there a way through a tweak or custom rom to toggle it without rebooting?

You can toggle it ON/OFF whenever. It does not require a reboot. Adaptive brightness turns ON anytime the device is rebooted. It is not such a big deal do not worry about it if you are going to buy the device.
Hey guys,
I'm aware of the default app settings option to determine which app should be opened as per se. Yet, when setting Gcam as default, the oneplus camera app still triggers when swiping from the lockscreen or double tapping the power button.
Since someone with a 7 pro handed me proof, that he can, in fact open the gcam app from the those two mentioned scenarios, I will try my luck again here to find a way, how to do so, too.
Do you guys have any ideas? I'm rooted. Google cam apk is the arnova one. Had urnyx05 before. No difference.
Thank you so much! It's the only thing that is bothering me.
I don't think that's possible.I tried turning the original camera off and even then it didn't work. I have a 7T.
If you are rooted freeze the OOS camera. Easiest way to do this is to download SD maid from play store and grant su permissions.. find the OOS camera and freeze it.. I can't promise anything.. but it's worth a shot.

Just ask that person how it was done. Odds are it will be a similar process.

FIXED
This has been going on with 2 x 9Pro phones now. The left and right side edge gestures hardly ever register.
I've tried talking to OP support but they literally told me the have never heard of this issue and can't help me .
I shot a Video showing the issue. If anybody has any ideas please let me know.
Hmmm strange, I've got two 9 Pros and neither have shown this issue, I did wonder if it was related to Brave but that seems to be functioning fine. Out of interest, have you tried factory settings and seeing if they work straight out the box as such?
Could it maybe be an app you've installed interfering with gestures maybe? What launcher are you using?

That's what I was thinking, some other app that's trying to take over gesture management, I know there's one popularized by XDA themselves
