Auto brightness on?
Sent from my Emotionless Beast of an Epic using the XDA App

Also, you know about the Notification Bar swipe for brightness feature, right? ..just to make sure. I thought my brightness was all screwy the first few days I had the phone.. then figured out what the prob was.
If none of those, I had brightness issues (with autobright on) with the 10/17 mixedup kernel. I'm pretty sure GeniusDog's new version addressed these sensor issues, but haven't tested it out yet.

Auto brightnss on, on the lastest kernal released today.

The auto brightness didn't work well with voodoo. Try during it off

Who know's. Maybe it's the lighting when you are walking between rooms or going from indoor to outdoors that has you thinking otherwise.
Personally, I use Brightness Level (CurveFish) from the Market. It's one of my favorite widgets simply because I can toggle on the fly. I have never noticed my screen brightness increasing when using it.

Screen brightness

Has anyone noticed the ability to change the screen brightness by running your finger to the right to brighten and left to decrease brightness.
Sorry forgot, running your finger across the status bar right our left.
I am running the litening 1.3 rom and using tegrak oc module.
Just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed this.

Thank you, guess I should have searches first instead of getting excited and jumping the gun.

Brightness Slider Gone

I'm rooted running stock with no mods flashed and I'm not sure why but sometime over the past few days my brightness adjuster has disappeared from my notifications. I enjoyed having it there and if it's just a setting I've hit that's be awesome. Otherwise I might just flash a rom to fix it.

You can see if it is turned on.
Click on settings
My Device
Display
Notification Panel
Then click Brightness Adjustment
If it unchecked that is why you don't see it. Unfortunately I have no clue why it turns off if you are not doing it.

Thanks lol. I looked for a setting but evidently I didn't try hard enough.
No problem, Samsung had to move all the settings around in 4.2, making it harder for everyone

It disapears when your battery hits 5%
Comes back when you are at 6% or higher

please help *my brightness adjuster has disappeared,
I have it enabled in the settings
Yeah mine has disappeared too, this is the second time I reset my phone once and it came back now it has happened again. No one seems to know why...
Night Mode
If you have the app Night Mode. Turn it on (start) then turn it off (stop). The slider should appear again, as long as you have it checked in the settings.

App/tweak that adds the steps for auto brightness?

I'm looking for that tweak that adds the small adjustments for auto brightness, so you can lower/raise the auto settings without losing the automatic part. Some Roms have it cooked in, but unfortunely the one I'm using does not!

I have never seen it in any MDL of MF3 rom. If you want that feature I would suggest installing a international rom. For some stupid reason Samsung doesn't use it in the US version of their phones.

Infact you can use it. Install the xposed framework and then Wanam Exposed. Among other things there's an option for it.

I use and like the pro version of it.
The app lets me choose a preferred brightness level for various night or day brightness.
Such as if I'm next to the dim lamp next to my bed, I tell Lux how bright (or dark) I want my phone and everytime my phone gets to that level of light, it will automatically adjust to my preferred backlight level.

[Q]Brightness issues AOSP 4.4.2 ROMs

Ha all!
I have issues with brightness on all AOSP 4.4. ROMs - screen is veeeeeryyy dim after call or after unlocking device from lockscreen.
Is anybody have solution for it??
Can our developers @dhacker29 , @arrrghhh , @timpohladthomas , @Somber73 or anybody else fix it?
I can't believe that those problems annoys only me! ))
Maybe it has something to do with automatic brightness being on? Not exactly sure

I was going to ask a similar question.
Keep in mind, I do not actually own a xt907. I do not seem to have any sort of brightness issues on my xt897...

I was think about automatic brightness... But I have thee same issues without it...
I have this problems with brightness only on KK ROMs.. And all my friends, who use KK on XT907 have the same issues... :crying:
I also have this issue on KitKat ROMs. It not an auto brightness issue because it does it at all brightness settings even max.
Screen will light up dim at first and about 10-15 seconds after it will finally adjust to the level it's set it.

That's very odd. I hope they fix that.

When I first used gravity box on 412 it had same bug. But now the updated gb no longer does it. Try installing gb? Then enable the brightness slider.
