The brightness that allows the phone to get more bright than what manual maximum brightness settings allow under high ambient conditions. Is it possible to enable this level of brightness on manual maximum brightness constantly with root and tweaking a certain script? I really like whiter whites.
No one even knows how to remotely answer this question?

Hi guys
Which preference do you use? Is automatic brightness option best for battery saving?
i remember it was an official battery saving tip for iPhone and wondered if it's the case for N1.
eh, just keep it on the lowest brightness... thats the best bet
the problem with auto-brightness is that it fluctuates a bit too much if you're in a room with localised lights and shadows... even in a seemingly bright area to your eyes, the display will go to lowest brightness... i just found it personally annoying, as it would usually fluctuate when i wasn't expecting, and to a lower brightness than i could stand... i've since stopped using it... i set my brightness manually to about 25%... for me that's a good balance between a usuable brightness for all conditions, while still giving good battery life...
I use auto brightness with locale which toggles it on and off based on my location. But even before I did that I really didn't notice to much of a difference in battery levels at the end of the day.
I just wish there were min and max settings for auto brightness. Cause I am pretty sure I have never needed the brightness turned all the way up.
i prefer auto brightness if it works. my 1st N1 had a glitch where the screen brightness used to flicker. on my 2nd N1 the auto brightness does not adjust on full scale........(if you go into 100% dark room, the brightness setting must automatically drop to 0)
I too found that the auto-brightness flickered too much. I downloaded Brightness Level off the marketplace and never looked back...
Auto-brightness fluctuates too much for my liking. So, I just keep it set to middle brightness.
the light sensor is unstable, so manually 25% all the time..
Auto brightness too dark
In my Nexus autobrightness works ok outdoors, but indoors it sets the light too dark. I wish it`d work fine because it's a waste of time adjusting it manually every time you move into different light conditions.
I've read Nexus users report different behaviours of their light sensors, maybe it is a bad quality component of the phone. Is there an app which can modify the sensibility of the light sensor? Would be great to adjust this sensibility and set brightness always to auto with a little more brightness indoors in my case.
manual, 25% - the best balance of battery and light for me.
i use about 60%. I hated the automatic brightness because it was darker than I would like most of the time.
My position is, I bought a phone that has a high resolution, so why not give it the brightness to make the color "pop" like they should.
Here's my dilemma... I like saving battery by setting my brightness level lower than the automatic setting (since the screen still looks great anyway), but I would like it if I didn't have to go into my settings manually to change the brightness level so that I can see the screen when in direct sunlight. Is there any way someone could develop a mod to have the automatic brightness, but about 20% dimmer? I don't know if it's possible, but it would be pretty awesome.

I have my screen set pretty dim, and use the Power widget to crank up the brightness if I go outside.
You can also you the "Screen Filter' app to make the screen x% darker than the current setting. (which even allows you to make it darker than the dimmest brightness settting, which is really nice on the batteries.)

I am current searching for the same thing.
temp solution is to Market > Dimmer (night mode) by geekyouup
It toggles auto brightness and sets back light to min. when on. click once, screen goes super dark, click it again, auto brightness take over. handy. (put it up to status bar w/ bar control and you can get to it when ever)
Problem with auto brightness right now is at it's lowest setting, the back light is still at about 25%. there is gotta be a way to change that in the settings.apk
or better yet, have an option to set your own ambient light to lcd brightness ratio for the auto brightness
option to set own ambient light ratio?

I'm search for this also. I believe you can adjust this in CM7 but is there is a way to do this that is not ROM specific? I'm currently using RoyalGlacier with Faux123 kernel and I find the auto brightness setting for dim ambient to be too bright and the bright ambient to be not bright enough.
I don't want to adjust the brightness automatically, but the question is that the low level is too low, medium level is too high, anybody knows how to change the low level brightness? Thanks!
The Note 3 and S4 have special brightness settings in automatic mode that allow them to go brighter beyond what manual max brightness will allow. In the S4's case, when extremely bright light hits the sensor, it can achieve up to 475 cm/d in auto-brightness. Is there a special root app or program that would allow you to achieve this level of brightness in automatic brightness?
Just like with the Note 2, the maximum brightness of the display is higher on auto brightness then when you manually set the brightness on the highest level.
Sometimes it is difficult to read the display, even though the brightness is set to full. The auto brightness does not accurately work 100% of the time.
Is there a way to manually increase the display brightness? With the Note 2 there was a mod that allowed the manual brightness slider to go all the way to the maximum auto brightness.
Is there a simular mod on the Note 3? If not, how can we develop one?
