Yeah my S4 keeps disabling auto brighness (unticking the box in the drop down menu). It happens whenever I turn off the screen.
Help! It started recently (less than a week)
Anyone.. my S4 is still doing it. Can't be the only one!?
Which ROM? What have you tried so far to solve the issue?
Mine's doing it too. I am running stock, rooted, twrp, nottach xposed with some tweaks. I don't believe I've tweaked anything regarding brightness/auto brightness.

Title says it all. I'm having issues after the MDL root with my screen never turning off. Checked to verify that all settings are correct and can not seem to get screen to sleep after performing the root method found Here. Anyone have this issue or no a resolution?
Hi guys,
I have upgraded my n9005 to KK for a while now. And it seems that with KK 4.4.2 randomly break my auto brightness from time to time. This issue occurs the same time when an incall screenoff stop working.
To begin with, after a while of usage the auto brightness feature breaks where it did not adjust automatically. I got a very dim brightness level eventhough it's a night time. Also the auto brightness level doesn't work as well. But when I turned this feature off the brightness slider works again. Now while this is happening and I'm on the call my screen won't turn off automatically during the call or when I have finished my call the screen wont turn on. So for both issues I have to manually activate the screen via Home/power button. Moreover, I have notcied that while this is happening when I entered Camera app, the screen will be fixed on the landscape mode only and there is no way I can make portrait back again.
To be even more surprise, these issues will be gone and come back from time to time without restarting. However, upon restarting everything works fine for a while.
What I have tried to solve this issue:
- Reflash stock firmware (official version of my country)
- Clear dalvik
- Flash stock firmware (latest version from DBT)
Still I'm unable to solve these issues. I'm wondering that have any of you guys are facing these issues as well? I have searched and it seems that I'm only one having these problems. I just want to know whether this is only software or hardware related
Thanks

Kinda noticed this while I was briefly on kk. If you're on AT&T keep in mind that it was not the official release, and bugs are present.

Thanks for letting me know that this is common for KK on N9005. LOL I thought it was HW related issue though
I tried searching if this happens to anybody else, but couldn't find it. Since I updated to lollipop (I put original polish rom first via odin) whenever my auto brightness is turned on, when I wake the phone using home key or power button, my screen turns on with full brightness for a half second or something like that, and than goes back to normal.... I thought it was a bug on polish ROM, so I flashed austrian rom, but no improvement. Now I have custom TW rom, and it is still the same. When I turn auto brightness off, it doesn't happen. So I suspect it to be that screen turns before the light sensor on unlock, and it is set to full brightness always. is there some file I can edit, so screen starts at lowest brightness or delay screen start for half a second so the sensor can start first.
It is killing me when I get a message while sleeping in a dark room, and I want to check it, it blinds me so I wake up, and can't go back to sleep later!!!
LOL I have the same problem, which is extremely irritating to say the least, but I had no idea that it had to do with auto brightness! I am on latest AryaMod, which is stock TW based ROM, so I guess its a problem of all the TW releases?
Don't know! I will ask this in AryaMod topic and see whether dev will be more than kind to provide us a solution. Thanks for creating the topic, I had thought about it a lot of times, but was never intrigued enough.

I am using death note.
Now I am back to Arya to test the battery life.
Hello XDA Moto X Play Owners,
I have the Moto X Play with 2 Sims, updated to the latest OS Marshmallow 6.0.1, stock no root or mods.
After resetting/formatting my phone a couple of weeks ago, I started to have the following problem:
I always set my 'Display' > 'Adaptive Display' or Auto Brightness setting to OFF & set my display brightness manually. However, I noticed that my screen keeps 'dimming' itself automatically every couple of minutes without me changing anything in settings...
So I went back to check Display settings, and I find out that 'Adaptive Display' check box is checked back as "ON", without me changing it... I then rechange it back again to "OFF", however after a couple of minutes the device puts it again to "ON"...
This issue is driving me crazy, and my screens keeps jumping around with auto adaptive brightness without me changing anything in settings...
How can I set adaptive display & auto brightness to OFF for good and not have it turn ON by itself?
Please help! Thanks.
Bump.
Any help guys? D:

An app could be interfering.
Another suggestion would be to factory reset your phone again.
Try in safe mode and report please. https://motorola-global-en-uk.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/106497/p/30,6720,9392
Try install Quick TuneUp-Phone Calibration solved much problems
Hi auto-rotate and auto-brightness stopped working after update, i am not sure if it was August or September Update.
When i noticed, the first thing i did, i reboot the device, and nope, it still didn't work.
I google searched about the issue, but not to much around the internet about this bug or problem.
Someone is saying to check any app that i installed lately,, but i didn't install anyone to be honest. I also cleared the Cache Partition but still , no success.
For the moment i am using an app to controll rotation of the screen, Rotate Control, and the brightness, i adjust it manually.
It will be very helpful if anyone can help me with this.
