I have no clue why it's doing this. My auto brightness is turned off and it does it on its own.

Have you perform hard reset and if things improve?
If you are and continues having the same issue then must be defective proximity sensor.
In other words return it and get replacement or contact ZTE service support for your issue.
I remember I had similar issue with a Windows tablet did reinstall Windows and drivers from the beginning and no result the screen by its own up and down brightness all the time despite automated brightness settings was disable.
Got replacement and not had similar issue.

Just noticed that even when I turn on auto brightness, it turns it off and lowers the brightness to 0%

So I keep automatic brightness on but I think my play may have a problem. I turn the backlight off and sometimes my plays screen flickers brightness- like it's automatically changing the brightness but it's going back and forth rapidly. I don't know if it is a fault or just that I'm not keeping the phone steady enough. Any assistance?

Turn automatic brightness off temporarily and see if it still does it?
If your blocking the front camera then it will do that. That's how it uses the auto brightness.
Thanks guys. Will see

HI!
Yesterday i set the brightness of my nexus 4 to 0 (with the slider by
shifting it to the left position). Surprisingly this turned my screen
off, while the touch pad still works. By using a bright flashlight i
was able to set the brightness level to a normal value again, but i
think this is not supposed to happened anyway. A friend of mine has a
nexus 4 too and he can set the brightness to zero without turning off
the screen. Is this a hardware bug and must i be worried about it or
is it just a software bug?
I'm finding when browsing that my screen brightness seems to auto adjust randomly ..I don't have it set on auto or anything, it's annoying. Any idea what's going on?

I keep noticing the screen turn on when I'm holding the phone in my hand. I'm not pressing the power button

Settings->Display->Ambient Display
I read it in another thread, but found out it applied to me as well. I had Light Flow installed and it was the culprit. If I use the power button to shut off the screen, ambient display would kick the screen back on. Same happened just randomly while I'm driving down a smooth road (no sudden bumps/shakes) and the screen would randomly turn on. I switched to Light Manager and so far the behavior has stopped.
I stopped using light flow long ago as it would usually cause issues. Let me check out ambient

Yeah ambient I don't need and disabled it

I tried to like ambient display but ended up turning it off. It got annoying when I was holding the phone and my touch woke the phone up from ambient. What exactly is supposed to trigger this thing? Light? Motion?
No lightflow here but I do have a skinomi techglass which I thought I read could screw with the light sensor.
Yeah I feel the same way about the ambient display. I have no real need for it. My screen turned on at least 5 times while I was holding the phone in a cab. Annoying

Not sure if many of you have noticed but on the Moto X it seems the backlight will slightly flicker to adjust to colors on the screen. It is most noticeable when the brightness is on minimum setting in a dark room and occurs even though auto brightness is off. Simply going from my launcher page 1 to 2 will flicker my brightness 4 times.
I've seen this issue before on another device running a custom CM rom, so I figured it must be a software issue. Which I think I traced to being the color mode of the display. Go to Settings > Color Mode > Select Normal, this should fix the issue if it bothers you. If you use a custom kernel try using KCal to modify the display colors instead.
Let me know if you have this issue on your device, or if my eyes are just crazy. :silly:
Update: When watching youtube videos in full screen my display still flickers the brightness. I also set my lowest brightness to 1 in Gravitybox. So I don't understand why the brightness wants to flicker.
I noticed the same thing while using my phone in a dark room. My immediate thought was to change the color mode in the settings but it made no difference.
What rom and kernel are you using?

Just tried to replicate the problem on cm13 but everything worked fine. I only get this issue with stock or stock based roms
