Automatic brightness adjustment?

Anyone know if there is a way to adjust the automatic brightness function - i.e. have it still be automatic, but be a little bright or darker for a given ambient light?
would really like to keep using it, but want my overall brightness turned down. using manual brightness with widget for now, but don't see why automatic brightness could not be tweaked. tried searching for an app to do this, but have not come up with anything. nothing came up in a google search of xda either. anyone got anything?

I want to know as well, I wouldn't mind setting the auto brightness to be more fine tuned as well, smaller changes.

Yes a better working app is needed. something like My Light or Lumos for winmo

Browser brightness

Hi
It seems that the browser has its own brightness setting. This causes the brightness to change when you open/close the browser, since it is usually not in sync with the general brightness. Is there any way to either disable browser brightness, or keep it in sync with the general brightness setting?
Thanks!

When using auto brightness, the browser follows that and disables its own brightness setting.
But I do not know what happens when you switch to manual brightness then.

Adjust auto brightness

Is there anyway to adjust the brightness level of the auto brightness?
My problem is as follows: to save energy I usually set the brightness to the lowest level. If I want to use the tablet outside literally can't see anything because of that and have to go inside to adjust it. If I use auto brightness the brightness is to high though for most purposes. My ideal would be to use the brightness level the automatic mode sets minus 10% for example.

Great Idea! I would really luike that one too. I'm pretty shure that the option doesn't exist in standard roms. But maybe an app?

I thought about looking for apps a couple of minutes after I started this thread and was kind of embarrassed. However, I didn't find any that worked the way I want them to.
I stumbled over one here in the forum lux something, but I doesn't work with jelly bean I guess.
If you find one, please let me know

Lux auto brightness does exactly what I want. You can set up different screen brightness settings for different lux values. It's an awesome app, check it out

Does your phone do this?

If you have auto brightness, adapt display and auto adjust screen tone off aswell as having brightness in browser and main settings all the way up does your phone go slightly dimmer when entering the stock browser? If someone could test this it would be brilliant! Thanks guys

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
i believe there's some settings you have to tick in the stock browser's settings

Do you mean the brightness and auto brightness in the browser? Brightness is at full and autobright off... take it your phone doesn't dim at all?

Reduce screen brightness

Hi, i have a rooted SGP311 4.2.2 (10.3.1C.0.136) is there any app that can further reduces the screen brightness. I have it on the lowest setting in the evening and it is still to bright. I am not looking for a app that will filter the screen but something to dim the back light that will also save battery.
Thanks
