Hi i dont know if someone notice it that the screen brightness is brighter on auto, meaning that in direct sunlight if i turn my screen brightness to max and then set auto the screen go's way more bright on auto.
manual controle set to max is like (75%) compared to auto-adjust at its brightest.
Can this be fixed?

What rom / firmware are you on? I don't think it's a bug, I think it's supposed to be like that.

Ok. Like I said I think it's supposed to be like that.:good:
Yeah that's a feature, not a bug. Meant to protect battery drainage..If you like to manually set brightness, know that in situations of direct sunlight setting the brightness to auto will allow the maximum brightness to be achieved since its using the lux sensor to determine necessary brightness level

I have a question do to the screen. Whenever im scrolling through the homescreen it randomly dims and gets brighter could that be something with my rom or 4.2 or my launcher?

I think the automatic brightness option is a bit flaky on the N10. Seems overly sensitive to me. You can always turn it off and set the brightness manually.

I never use auto brightness.
Is there any way to change default brightness level of the auto mode?

nope, i would manually adjust it.
Was reading somewhere that the magnetic stripe on some of the cases can interfere with the light sensor. Not sure if OP is running inside a case or not.
At any rate, mine also does the same and I have it in one of those cases that auto-shuts the tablet off when closed. It does not bother me too much yet.

This would be nice. I like the auto-dim feature but it drops a little lower level than I prefer.
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).
When I unlock the the screen, there is a few second delay in the screen resuming to the set brightens.
I am on auto brightness but there is a few second delay after unlocking & when its gone to the home screen.
Anyone have this or have I got a setting wrong some where?

Well it is set to auto mode, I guess it is normal to take a moment to measure the ambient light and set a determined brightness.
Ya good catch. My note 4 does this every once in a while too. My note 3 or note 2 never did that and it had auto settings too?

Having read the reply below yours, out might be nothing to do with auto brightess.
Is anyone else noticing this?

I also have noticed that mine does take a couple second to change the screen brightness when the brightness setting is set to auto.

Yeah mines still doing it. Might be fixed with an update. Doubt it though.
When I'm in a light room the screen goes brighter but if I walk into a darker room, the screen doesn't dim unless I lock and then unlock the screen.
Anyone else having similar issues?
Yep got the same here. Thought I had a faulty ambient light sensor but obviously not.

Just tried it by covering the light sensor to make sure, no problem here (G935F). My only concern related to brightness is that the s7 just has auto brightness, but no adaptive brightness.
Uncheck the auto box and recheck. Then don't touch the slider. It's usually because in marshmallow the slider moves with the auto bright and most people touch it which makes it hold position.

There seems to be a bug somewhere still. I just tried to move the slider while auto brightness is ticked and to cover the light sensor afterwards again and it still worked and to my surprise it even took into account that I lowered the brightness and took also a lower brightness at the covered state and took my initial setting after uncovering, pretty nice, so there is indeed still adaptive brightness. After ticking und unticking auto it went back taking the default steps for brightness as before.
Having the same issue here
Definately not touched the slider.
Also, I have tested the light sensor and it appears to work fine so definately a software issue. Though I imagine we will see some software updates to fix bugs shortly after the official release date.
So you can adjust the slider with the box checked and get various levels of auto? Does it learn?

Yes.
I can't tell for sure, when I change further steps the previous seems to stick, at least to some extend so there is a logic behind it, but I can't tell for sure if it really is based on each step and sets it accordingly or if it's just changes the range it operates in. Anyways I'm a happy camper.
Also, I could reproduce the device not changing the brightness, when I put it to full at darkness it won't move anymore in auto. But as soon as I lower it again it will also change accordingly again, maybe at those with the stuck brightness the min brightness is only raised, but not lowered anymore, but just an assumption and doesn't help anyone atm unfortunately.

This is the first Galaxy phone I had, that Auto brightness actually works the way I like it.
It seems to be working fine now. It just takes a few seconds for the screen to dim (maybe I was being impatient).
After testing it further it's actually really good auto brightness.
It works, just takes some time to adjust to the lighting. Maybe the default settings are set to a certain time. Maybe with root we can adjust this..

It seems to only do it quickly when the device is lay down (as 954wrecker said). Maybe Samsung did that so it doesn't annoy you when using your phone.
this is definitely a bug imo... the auto brightness doesn't change for me either...

I also have an auto briteness issue, when I disable AutoBrite and set it manually about half my apps override the setting and enable AutoBriteness in the app's screen usually dimming the screen? SpadesFree one example and I do not see an override in the app.
Confimed that I'm having same issue, auto brightness not adjusting and slider not movingoing. Have to move it manually
Same issue. It needs to be fixed manually by editing services.jar (root needed)
Nothing else will work. None of google play apps will help with that issue. Does not matter what you do, it will always dimming if you don't fix it in framework.jar

I'm on Android Nougat 7.0 stock with TWRP and root. The auto brightness goes too low when in a low lit room. Previous versions of Android adapted as I would increase the brightness and eventually learn how I liked it in differently lit rooms. However, Android 7 doesn't appear to be doing this.
Is there an app or mod that would allow me to adjust the auto brightness settings?

yeah, your fingers, turn off auto brightness or adaptive display.

Adaptive display is to adjust the colours not the brightness.
Turning off auto brightness would mean adjusting the brightness everytime I went into a different light environment. That would defeat the object.
Not very helpful but thanks for trying.

you could always turn off auto brightness and try and find a middle of the road setting, but I know what you mean, when playing games on mine the screen seems to go darker in darker rooms, seems the wrong way around to me, I just move my hand away from any sensors and it sorts itself out, the 2 dots next to the top speaker.

Well on Android 6 I would manually adjust it when it was too dark or too bright and Android would remember and adjust it to how I liked it, meaning I didn't have to manually adjust it anymore. Android 7 doesn't seem to have it. I guess I'll just put up with manually adjusting it for now.
Lux. It would set how dim or how bright the screen would be in a certain level of ambient light.
