I believe that the light sensors are broken in GB (JVK,JVA,JVB,JVH) all
anyone noticed this?
it goes only from 5 to 5000 if you want to make sure you can use apps such as phone tester to check it.
This is an important problem because it affects the auto brightness settings and other screen settings.
if you tick auto brightness what happens is it increase/decrease dramatically not gradually is it was in Froyo.
Any ideas/fixes ?

Yeah, there's definitely something up with it in JVB, had to switch off auto-brightness, it was driving me nuts while reading or gaming, I noticed it change many times for no reason while I had the phone left down and wasn't using it too. I leave it on 25% now but it would be nice to be able to use it again.

I believe the problem was present in SGS II but the latest firmware (I9100XEKE2) fixed it if someone knows how to port it...
mine goes from 10 to 160 in cm7 but its a jump not gradual. im on cm7 nightly 2.3.4
i hope this will be fixed soon!

Hey guys I'm having some concerns about my xperia play and so i want to know if i should be worried...
My screen flickers. ( Not on/off) but between shades. It's hard to explain but it drops between levels of brightness, but here's the deal i turn auto brightness off and it still flickers. Now i have noticed that the screen will dim ( flicker shades) with the orientation of the phone. Idk.
Also when I'm downloading the games thru xperia app it takes forever, i have high speed internet and I'm connected via WiFi but should i be expecting A 150MB download to take up to 45 minutes. Seems kinda slow to me.
Thanks in advance guys.
By Tue screen flickering if u mean the auto brightness increasing and decreasing immensely at times its normal since u cant turn off the auto brightness in our phone....
About the games..most of the games took 15-20 mins or less for me on an 8 mpbs connection

Is there some kind of other brightness settings, i turned auto brightness off. And I'm still getting fluctuations in the shade of color.
if you have root you can disable this, but it is only temporary as somewhere in the system it re-enables this.
create a gscript with su ability
start script below
echo "0" > /sys/devices/i2c-0/0-0040/leds/lcd-backlight/als/enable
end script above
do not include the start and end parts
lasts around an hour, stops the flicker in bad light situations

It wont turn off even if you untick it, its an anoying bug, hopefully custom roms/kernels will solve this, dont worry about the downloads, even with high speed internet, keep in mind most of the developers are small companies and cant afford expensive hosting, even the gameloft servers are slow imo

You can NOT turn auto brightness off on the Play, it is hard wired right into the os, even if you used an app or widget saying it if off it is NOT! there is nothing you can do until SE fix it or some members here mod the os,
All the Play's do exactly what your describing, lots of topic here and elsewhere about it, everybody moans about it!
And regarding downloads, things from the market download fast for me, very fast, but other stuff from other places can be very slow, gameloft for example, takes hours! just depends on the servers your downloading from.
Hey thanks guys for the information. When i get to a desktop I'll hit the thanks button for all of you. I think my WiFi was acting up last night, i was playing some zombies and downloading torrents at the same time.lol. anyways thanks guys again.

Actually you can disable it, its just not permanent please see my previous post
To be honest with you I like the auto brightness. I think is super responsive which other phones it seems like it takes forever to kick in which is why I normally shut it off

I think it works great too, but it is nice to have this little gscript ready for times when the autobrightness goes wacky and the screen flickers
hey guys,
before 2 days i finally got my note 4 after a long time with iphones,a few words wow! what a great phone! i dont know what i did with iphone so many years. everything is open and so simple and i really glad i chose to go with the note 4.
now i have some questions (The most important question is the battery life) and much more questions and i will glad if you can help me with all of the questions.
ok lets start,
1. the most important questions is my first question and is about the battery life, When I received the note 4 I waited for fully discharged for the first use until the device turns off, and then I charged it again (with fast charging without turn of the device) and i fell asleep and then in the morning was 100% so i turn the device (yes I know not to leave it charging all night even after the device is already 100% but its happend ) well I noticed that the battery runs out really fast, and my use was quite low and I do not know how! For example, after a 3 hours of use the battery goes from 100% to 60% and after more two hours its was 35%. excpet this i saw when i got 5-6% i was playing a bit with the settings and after 2-3 min the device turns off. how 5-6% in 2-3 min and even less?
this is the things i did to save my battery life already:
sound settings: turns off - vibrate while ringing, dailing keypad tone, touch sound, screen lock sound, sounds when tapped, vibrate when tapped and all the rest.
brightness: almost the lowest and even now i tried auto - btw what is the best to do - auto brightness or to set it your own on low brightness?
bluetooth - off
closing applications with the "recent app button" - V
GPS - off
Disable Pen Detection - off
and more settings that i dont remmber.
here is a picture of my power saving in settings (before i charge it without "fast charing") Do not know if this is related but just mention that
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
so what should i do to to extend my battery life? because my battery life very poor.
Sub Questions about the battery:
a. which way is the best to charge the note? wait until the device turns off and then to charge it to 100%? or what?
b. fast charing option is good? right now i turns the option off and my device charging while he off. what do you recommend to turn off the feature or on?
2. i heard when i force stop applications in "applications manager" is good is that true? is effect on the battery life?
look at the picture i uploaded from there,
the settings are good? do i have to force stop applications? i will glad to hear a short explanation about this.
3. about the RAM usage, applications thats running or i dont know how to call it, look at the picture i uploaded:
1.6 GB in use and sometimes its even 2GB in use, i really dont know how! i didnt use so many applications.
it is ok to close apps from here or to let the system to handle it? and is effect on the battery life? i really glad to short explantion about it also.
4. the google syncs its like iCloud in apple? i saw in settings alot of marks like: calander, contacts, and many more can sync to google+, what thats means? its will upload to google sync cloud? or its just a backup to the contacts? i really dont understand this.
5. i used wazzapmigrator app to my note from iphone to transfer all my whatsapp history chat, is it safe? everything works good i just ask it to be sure. by the way i use the "LITE" version of free download and now each message have - LITE, if i buy the full version its will remove it?
and a sub question, i used smartswitch to transfer my notes, calander, contacts is ok?
Sorry for the ignorance i know i asked so many stupid questions but i have to solve them.
thank you very much!!
1. I will say that the battery needs to be settled with our use, so if you got bad batt life in first few days of use, it will become better later..
And also you can turn off feature that you don't use or hate it.. for me, I always disable vibration and that sound when typing with keyboard because that disturb me..
2. You can use the force close, it's just like force closing apps in pc.. you know, in pc we can force close app with the task manager via ctrl+alt+del.. it's just like that..
3. For me, I let the system handle it.. me too have same amount of ram used as in your picture, and the phone is still buttery smooth..
And you can disable (turn off) preinstalled app (bloatware) that you don't use, like me, I disable evernote, dropbox, instagram, etc. so they won't run in background..
4. I'm not experienced with apple icloud system, but I think they have same functionality.. That sync is provided so if you change your device or maybe lost it, you still have your data with you in the new phone, but I never use it so much because I can keep my phone well
5. I can't answer this as I'm not using whatsapp..
And 1 more :
Welcome to the android world
heres mine with auto brightness, gps high acc, bluetooth on, wifi on, display wallpaper full black, animations off, fast charging off - after a full day of work. rarely gets below 40%. exynos 910u variant.

first of all thank you for all the answers!
1. oh k, i hope its will be better. I considered to use the warranty and replace the battery but its make no sense because i bought the note before 2 days ago the battery is new from the box.
what do you recommend me to do?
and by the way to use auto brightness or to put it my self? and which way is the best way to charge the battery?
and i had 100% in in less then hour is drops to 88% only with whatsapp use, really strange.
and here is an update screenshot from my power save settings, 62% screen! i guess is the problem of my battery. so how can i make it lower? to 10-20 and even 30 its will make my battery better i guess no?
2. ok, and there is so many apps thats i dont have any idea what to do with them, devicetest, DCM,SERVICEMODE and alot more do not touch them? to close only Known Applications? and the most important, thats is effect on the battery life?
3. but evernote,instagram and all of this is in the manage applications also so whats its the diffrence and its effect on battery life also?
4. oh ok great!
5. k, and about smartswitch it is good? i used it to transfer contacts/notes.
thanks again!

i guess the screen is the problem of my battery how can i make it lower to 10-20 more/less? thats is the question.
do you think this is the issue thats my battery life poor?
yes its definitely your screen.
put it to basic, use a 256x144 full black wallpaper scaled up ( i attached one), turn animations off in dev options on your settings, set smart look on, set timeout to 10 seconds (dont worry smart look will prevent device shutting screen off while you look at it).
Just to show you i am not cheating and not using my note you can see my applications and memory usage, which is more than yours .

ok i hope is the screen.
well one of your screenshot doesnt work and all the rest i belive you about the usage/ram
ok i did the picture on basic, but still the screen is on 62% i have to wait until is drops or what?and where is the set it on 256/144 scaled up? and i cant find the animations also in the settings.
smart look you mean smart stay? to put it on? and screen timeout is on 15 seconds is the lowest.
and one more thingthe brightness should be on auto? and what is the auto adjust screen tone put it on? have alot settings in the screen settings i really dont know haha.
i will glad if you help me find those settings. i have to lower my screen percentage from 60% to 10-20-30 at least.
thanks!
the black image i posted up is a 256 x 144 image. download it to your note and set it as background.
settings- display screen - mode - basic.
enable auto adjust screen tone.
smart stay enable.
daydream off
touch light key duration 1.5s
screen timeout 15s
brightness -5 auto
settings - developer options - windows animation scale off. transition scale off duration scale off. show all ANRs.
(you will have to enable dev options - click on build number in about device 7 times)

i did everything you said in the screen settings, but still in the power saving the screen is on 63% why?
When it should to drops? do i have to reset? charage again? wait? dont get it
and about the black image i dont want it on my wallpaper is that necessary?
about the dev options i enable it, when i set the scale off my screen become to red and flickering 10-15 sec until i stop the dev options. what is that?
so i didnt change the dev settings i did it off right now. what is this red flickering screen?
and btw i cant to disable/hide the dev options now right?
it will recalculate after 24 hrs.
the black screen is necessary - amoleds consume power on lit pixels.
scale off with animations off shouldnt cause flickering. sure you didnt switch anything else on ?

instead of manually force stop these app, you can open Settings > App manager > select apps and select Turn Off.
If you are not sure which app is safely can be turned off, you can post a list of apps here, I or maybe someone else will tell you which app can be safely turned off.
If you have rooted, you can remove them completely.

1. How long is your replacement warranty ? I suggest to wait it til the last day..
That screen percentage is show how much you use it.. screen will go high if you use it.. but that 60+ % is something.. I use my device often, and it's only as high as 30 something percent
2. I'll leave something that I didn't know.. You better google it to see it's used or not..
3. If you connect those apps, it's surely will drain the battery.. but I'm still turn it off if I not use it.. just in case they run in background..
5. I haven't used that apps..

1. i bought 2 days ago and i have 1 year warranty for battery replace.
yes now the screen is on 53% i guess like zurkx said its recalculate every 24hr no? before 1hr its was 63% so i hope its will be less and my battery should be better no?
but you know how long the note 4 battery life should work for while playing music/games/notes/settings ? 6 hrs? 9 hrs?
3. oh ok.
and btw anyone know what happend me before when i enable the devs options? i mean the flickering screen for few seconds thats i talked about before few comments.

and when i turn off the scale animation the screen start to flickering on red colors, after 5-10 sec its stopped and never happend again.
should i have to worried? btw like i said i already removed/hide the devs options from settings with the guide thats i showed you.
i found a picture from another website of the same problem thats happend to me but for nexus,
the same thing happend to me but its was flickering.
the question if i have to worry about it and do a reset or to forgot it? its happend only one time.

charge your phone when battery drops to 10-15%
When I drag my brightness slider to a diffrent position it doesn't remember the value, after waiting or turning my screen off and back on it always resets back to 50%.
Do more people experience this issue or is it just me?

Try to set it to 100 %, then restart the phone. Worked for me.
I think it`s just the way it works now, they changed it..it`s showing the "right now" brightness instead of always having the same position even if there is diffrences in the brightness.

Thank you so much:angel: it works!
I had problem of "screen burn in" on my LG G5 and I tried different apps which reduce the burn in for time being but they didn't solve the issue.
Recently I tried "turning off the always on display" and I have noticed that the screen burn in is reduced by 80% I can barely see the burn in previously I was able to clearly see the burn in.
Also don't let your phone get too hot like really hot, burn in is maximum when the phone is very hot.
Hope these tips help you.
P.S. Please try these tips and post replies if they worked for you.
Wish it would help bit doesnt... Since day 1 always on is turned off and the phone doesnt get too warm... It`s the brightness or whatever that causes this
My friend just change theme and after that dont have burn in effect. You can try
I think the burn effect is caused by blue subpixels, so you need to lower the brightness of these. I'm using the built in color control in cyanogenmod but you can use an app like CFlumen or Twilight, Blue Light Filter, etc. I had no more status bar icons stuck.
Yes it mostly happens to me in summer/high degrees also when the phone over heats

I most def wont call it burn cause burn stays on almost all the screens this is never on white black. Just at random times. More like when screen animations are happening
I just use Blue Light Filter (Dev is hardy infinity). I've been using it for the past 7 months or so ..solved all my issues with the screen . If I turn it off, I have very bad images retention. Works perfect. Install and forget it's there.

I'll try it, thanks.
If you are rooted you can set bgr by installing some kernel. If you are using custom rom, you can just set colors in color calibration to 90% (all three). For people with no root, use blue light filter and thats it..

I just use Blue Light Filter (Dev is hardy infinity). I've been using it for the past 7 months or so ..solved all my issues with the screen . If I turn it off, I have very bad images retention. Works perfect. Install and forget it's there.

Hello. What about nav bar? I have been using an app called sFilter bluelight app and it clearly removes image retention except the navigation bar, that one you say can help me with this?

Unfortunately can't touch the NAV bar. Change it to Black color to have less effect.

Use Night screen (Paper airplane dev team).
change to system overlay mode.
It'll cover the whole screen including the navbar

my screen got a really bad case of image retention so i set the slider at about 80% (far to the right).
even with maximum brightness i don't get image retention anymore.
If you reboot the phone it wont automatically start by itself. you have to manually turn it on again.

This is the best recommendation I have read on this issue for a long time. This app works like a charme. Perfect for everyone struggling with image retention on his lg g5. And you even don't have to change the colors. It just lays a mask over your display and that's it. :good:
