Go into settings>My device> and find "Power saving mode" and disable it if its enabled.
Doing this might solve your auto brightness issue.
Good luck!
Nah I've gotten used to it by now.
I only get the dimming thing when I switch to and from Google apps like Chrome.

I had the same problem but you can sort it out if you're rooted and using STweaks:
Set 'Brightness Reduction' to 0 under 'screen' settings
Dimming Problem
Hi,
I would appreciate if you guys could give my app a try. Even if you found a workaround...
It's an easy to use application that allow you to manage your screen and can allow you to stop it from dimming.
It can be configured for specific apps also. Please give me your feedback!

Thanks!
I'm noticing that when I try to download something from Chrome, an app, etc. using the default download manager and I set my phone down (screen goes off) the download notification and download itself will disappear or fail. I often download shows/movies from an app I use and it only seems to work if the screen is kept on.
I've seen this issue talked about, but never really answered. I'm currently on the 6.0.1 ROM on my XT1575, but had this issue on other stock roms too.
Are you using any apps that try to force aggressive doze like naptime or greenify? I've had those interfere with some legitimate screen off wakelocks.
Just Frankenclark with scripts.
Hey,
I just tried to take a screenshot of my lockscreen but I've got a toast that says "Can't take screenshots due to security policy".
That "security policy" thing made me cancel all Screen-off apps (like the option to put double-tap to sleep in Nova Launcher using Screen Off app), and now I can't take screenshots either.
Is it possible to disable this thing? I think I know how to protect myself.
I think that is impossible. I use Gruware app Screen Off - Go 2 Sleep. See https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/help/security-policy-prevents-fingerprint-t3354270
Screenshot
The screenshot is still a problem for me, did anyone find an outcome? Thanks
I am not sure why u have this issue
I can use screen off apps and take screenshot of my lockscreen
It's when I try shoot a social media or gambling site... very annoying
samsung is dumb for doing this just my opinion
It's not Samsung. Certain apps do not allow screenshots for security reasons be it your bank app which mine blocks the same way. Or be it people trying to bootleg Netflix. It's a security feature and for the most part a pretty decent one
Some apps such as Magisk when you click on a module for the description, and contacts when you search for a name show on the lockscreen. This allows anyone picking up your phone to see what you're doing.
I'm curious to know of any other apps do this or if there is a way to prevent it.
Here is one example
It's a bug with the AOD module you're using and is mentioned in that thread.

Would you care to link it? I'm not using an Always On module. Have double tap to wake enabled only.
Happens to me as well, but it shows my home screen under the lockscreen. Happens maybe 25% of the time

That was my mistake. The layout in your screenshot is the typical AOD format. I use single tap, which just wakes up to the One Plus AOD display, the double tap wakes up just like pressing the power button.
The AOD mod uses the traditional AOSP AOD, which looks like what your screenshot is. But that mod has a bug where info is displayed. I've confirmed this while I was running the mod.
For you and others having this bug. Can you give a little info? What rom version are you running, and what launcher are you running?
Running 9.0.6 on T-Mobile, using lawnchair launcher. I can not recreate this. I can only recreate it while running the AOD mod.
9.0.6 global 6t, nova prime

I apologize for very little info in the OP, I was driving and didn't want to text too much lol.
Version 9.0.6 global.
Lawnchair launcher.
Only double tap to wake enabled.
Magisk modules: BusyBox, Greenify, iOS emojis, Universal GSM Doze, and YouTube Vanced black.
Those 2 situations are the only time I've been able to duplicate the issue. Never had it show my desktop like another person stated.

My assumption is it might be a bug in OOS then. Cause I've seen this with the AOD mod. The way the mod works is just enabling AOD that OnePlus disabled. The code is there, they just disable it and then add in their own. (The clock view when you pick up the phone or whatever).
The fact it happens with that mod, and it happens with users who are using double tap to wake (which wakes the device to the lock screen). It seems to be a bug with the lock screen.
I would try searching on the OnePlus forums for this bug. If you see a bunch of comments about it, it will at least be known it's an OOS bug and it'll be fixed at some point. Since most of those people will be running stock.
If you care about security, I would try single tap, and see if that resolves it until it's fixed.
To be clear, I'm not using double tap to wake. It happens when I press the power button.
Oops sorry
I can recreate this behavior everytime..
This happens with all apps that use the system share screen, example gallery app...open any picture ...press share icon on the bottom...share menu comes up...lock the device(power button)...press power to come to lockscreen and viola transparent lockscreen...
I am not rooted or unlocked, talking about stock device here 9.0.6...
Guys I think I figured this on out and would love you all to test it and confirm.
I'd been using a wallpaper set through the Google Wallpapers app and have been noticing the issue regularly with Magisk manager, Boost, and Google Home to name a few. After setting a wallpaper directly using an image through my Launcher (op Launcher) I was able to see that the issue was resolved.
Any time I set a wallpaper through backdrops, Google Wallpapers, Resplash, the issue returns.
Let me know what you guys find.

My wallpaper is simple black image through Nova Launcher and I was having this issue occur. It's very sporadic, I haven't found any clear pattern
Cube, see if you can set it through the stock Launcher or even use the Set As function in your gallery and see if you have the same result. I haven't had the problem since changing the way I set Wallpapers. Only crap thing about it is I can't use the pixel live Wallpapers I was using before.
Fix
Go to settings, look up app locker and select the hide all information tab.
I have noticed that these 2 apps, Netflix and IMDB both seem to like cranking up the brightness level by a substantial amount. Even with adaptive brightness turned off.
Is there any way to stop this? It kind of blinds you late at night in the dark when you open the app.
Thanks in Advance.
Please check the settings for Video Enhancer, you can turn it on or off. As of now I don't see the function to turn off a specific app or than Off for everything.
