Despite reducing screen brightness to minimum and using a screen filter app I still find reading in the dark too bright on the Nexus 7. Any other way to reduce it even further?

I use an app called "screen filter". Does the trick for reading in the dark. Ah just noticed you are using it already. I have mine set to 15.3 percent and it's fine, not bright at all.

I have the lowest setting for the screen brightness but i noticed that it never stays on the lowest setting and seems to go a little brighter... prolly why my battery has been dying quicker this week... any explanation?

Do you have autobrightness on? Check in settings/display
No, i don't....

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.
Sometimes, on a white background, I will see my screen brightness flickr between 10 and high or something along those lines. I usually have my brightness is set to either low or high, never on auto.

Hi
Could someone told me if there is a mod or some settings to do in order to get a brightness lower than the min value, I do use the phone sometimes at night but I found out that the min value is too bright for me, compared to my xperia S, which is very low..

Is this maybe that thing that you're looking for?
Screen Filter
This app makes your colours look washed out, but makes the backlight less intense.
Thank you, screen goes a little grey but it's fine

There is an app called LUX, which can reduce you brightness to "0". It also does a much better job of auto brightness control that Android does in general, so your battery should last longer
Has anyone noticed how much both chrome and stock browser flicker. Since i spend a lot of time inside i don't really crank up the screen brightness. I noticed last night that when scrolling in the browser the screen will often flicker. Its driving me crazy cause I don't have a way to test on another unit. Im on at&t with a d800 can anyone else confirm this thanks. Once again it only seems to do this when the brightness is set relatively low, and auto brightness is set to off.

yes. it's that content adaptive brightness crap I'm always bringing up lol.. there's no way to turn it off. it changes brightness depending on what's on the screen. it's horrible at low brightness in the browser and anywhere in general.
my tip, use screen filter instead of dropping down brightness. this helps and you don't notice it. for example I leave my screen at 40 percent and put screen filter at like 35 and it looks almost like 0 percent brightness and I notice no flicker. this is only a temporary solution until kernel Devs get here because I believe the issue is in the kernel, bc disabling it on a software level does nothing.

Not sure if you're talking about the same thing, but check out my thread here for a possible solution.

Auto brightness is not good. I would recommend lux

Yes the G2 has a very dim brightness on 1% and also with inverted colors in accesibility click the name not the on or off button to make it dimmer grab it about the bottom middle of that screenshot and drag it down untill you match the blue color on the status bar all the way on the bottom... it keeps your colors the same but your blacks are darker makes for an even dimmer screen... have taken it to a movie theater and get no complaints its as if ts not even on
One of the brightest displays I've used no joke first time I turned the brightness up to 100 my eyes started watering no joke.

I seldom feel the need to run the brightness above 85% except outside on a sunny day. If you are an auto-brightness user, Lux is practically mandatory. LG's auto-dimming logic is horrible. It's got a, maybe, ±20% range.
