[Q] disable auto display brightness while charging - HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera

Hey,
when i charge my HD2 (with glacier v4 nand rom), the display brightness decreases automatically after 15s or something...
is there ANY way to disable that? hate it when i use google maps while driving and its too dark..
thanks,

Hi,
I would have thought that this is related to the power saving setting.
Go to settings>power and uncheck "enable power saver".

have you tried using tasker?
you can make a task that increases your brightness when you open maps
or even decreases your brightness when you plug it in

Backlight question

What is the darkest possible backlight option ? I often read at night. Also, is backlight easily changed ? On WM 6.1 you simply click on battery.

you still can click on the battery to change light settings:
start - settings - menu - more -system - battery. There you can change the settings.
I disabled automatic light setting and have it on 40% - suits me well.
BTW: Clicking on the notification bar doesn't do the battery/light job.
So changing backlight takes 6 clicks !?
Anyway I still wonder what is the minimum level in total darkness .. I worry if it is not too strong. I want it to be pleasant to watch in total darkness for longer time.
I use it as a GPS and driving with it at night with automatic blacklight is fine. With my Touch Cruise i always set the blacklight to minimum but with this one I don't seem to need it, even thought it only goes down to 20%
That would remove the need of going into settings ! Thanks for info.
you can set it manually to 10% (and probably even lower with registry tweaks/changes)

What exactly do you mean?
Honestly, I disable the auto backlight and leave it at 25%. Plenty of brightness in nearly all situations, and decent battery life. Use the slider in the settings to get it just the way you want. The "Brightness Widget" from the market will also work once you disable the automatic controls.
I mean the auto backlight sensitivity when in low light situations dimming to much.
If there was only a way to set a minimum brightness, using auto backlight it would be great.
I don't even notice the auto-dim anymore.

[Q] Do you use auto brightness or set value?

Just curious to see what everyone does on their tablet. I stick to using auto brightness but turn it up every once in awhile when browsing the web. The screen is just very nice to look at IMO. So what do you guys do? If you don't use auto brightness, specify your brightness sweet spot.
I have auto brightness off and set to the lowest possible setting and only occasionally adjust the brightness higher.
I also use the lowest possible setting. When I need to change the brightness, I use an app "Display brightness".

Auto brightness in 4.2 is one big bug
I would love to go back to using auto-brightness but it's a buggy piece of **** on 4.2+, it's been over a month now and they still haven't fixed the ****ing screen flicker issue, completely disgraceful.

I use set values from Extended Controls widget. I have it to like 7%/25%/36%/64%/100% and switch manualy according to what I need. Auto brightness never worked good for me on ANY android device

Thank you for turning me onto Display Brightness! Now I don't have to depend on auto-brightness and how it drains the battery! I'll be upgrading to the Pro version to support the developer!
BTW... I'm so glad it doesn't black out the screen completely, otherwise I would probably have a Razr with a completely black display (I was testing it on my Razr before I installed it on the N7).

Low brightness.. some help?

I just bought a LG G2..and when I turned it on, I tried to increase the brightness but it was at maximum..i looked in settings to see if there's no "battery save" that causes the low brightness..but there isn't
Some help?.. the brightness slide bar is working, but the brightness is too low at maximum ... the auto brightness box is unchecked
I think the display is broken..I am experiencing heavy screen flicker.. halp!
