yup, you are correct. there is no tickbox in the settings screen anymore, but if you load up the widget and click it to the middle setting, this is auto brightness (not as bright as it used to be but still auto)
and whats about the "process list" ?

Just wondering, did anyone else notice that when you try going to max brightness (from settings->display) it only goes to 99%? And if you try going to 100% with widgets, the screen gets brighter all the way till 99% and then when it hits 100 it gets a lot dimmer
Anyone else noticed this? Or is this bug specific to my poor unrooted X10a ?
I went to the Setting -> Display and Un-check Auto but I did not get the % scale, it just a scroll bar without any number in it, but it went all the way up and down as well. Maybe depends on the firmware in the phone...

Yea you can't see the number over there.. you need a widget for that. But if you slide it to the maximum possible, and then look at the number in a widget(I've tried 4 so far, so its not a widget problem) it says 99%, if you make that 100 through the widget, it dims.
I guess SE knew this and made the max brightness 99%?
Yea it happens to me too. I use Quick settings and when I slide to 100%, it dims. But it's not really a big deal cuz I set my phone at 18-20%. Saves a lot of battery
same here ...
100% is just like 10%
Yes i noticed that to! I was looking for a widget to controll backlight, found one that looked pretty and got a bit sad couse i thought it was faulty for not working correct so i uninstalled it. Nice to know the reason for why things not work

can someone please tell me how to disable auto brightness on
x10i eternity rom build 003
i tried using every brightness app/widget possible to turn it off but as soon as i turn it off and put the phone under different light setting i can see that the auto brightness is still on
i tried using adjbrightness but it keeps telling me that my phone isnt rooted; anyone get this app to work on x10??
please help n sorry if this questions been asked and answered before. this forum is getting too big and broad sometimes to find anything
thx in advance
Have you tried Sparepart? (That's the name)
Strange, i can't seem to turn on my autobrightness. It used to work perfectly in android 1.6. And i haven't noticed it untill recently. When auto brightness is checked, it just stays the same, even when i hold it directly under a lamp. Maby there is a bug in the software that prevents switching it on or off?
I'd also like an answer to this problem, because with auto brightness on the telephone is a battery eater.. you have to keep it to the minimum level to disable it, but when you are under a strong light, like outdoor with a sunny weather, it's difficult to see your screen's details. as you select a brightness level different from zero, the autobrightness turns on and eats the battery.
I hope I'm missing the solution to this, and somebody will help, because all the applications i've tried (spareparts included) didn't worked.
I'm quite confuse now.....
What actually do we need......
Turn it on...
or
Turn it off...
LOL
heh, so some people want a way to turn it off and others, like me, want to find a way to turn it on?
what a crazy phone..
I'm sure there used to be a tick box in the display settings to turn on/off the auto brightness. Anyway, i've tried various applications myself to get it on but nothing does it. I think the best solution is for us all to swap phones .
Spare Parts doesn't work for me, i tried enabling it, restarting the phone and jumping under my duvet.. but it didn't change
Did you update to 2.1? It was disabled in 2.1 as far as I know.
So the easiest solution, upgrade to 2.1! Else, I don't remember the menu but it's somewhere in the settings under 1.6.
I think we've all updated to 2.1 here =)
and yes, in 1.6 there was a box to tick to unable/disable autobrightness.
But, in 2.1, this feature has disappeared, leaving a seekbar and a damned widget which doesn't allow you to set or no autobrightness.
Hi,
The autobrightness is still there. It can be turned on/of from a stock SE connection widget. The different state for brightness is "minimum" -> "auto" -> "maximum"

Thats pretty much, exactly, what dpk0875 said, if i'm not mistaken.

I can get, either 0%, or 100% brightness, with the ambient sensor disabled. Anything in-between, fades constantly.
No fix for this, i presume?
Reading websites while the screen fades in/out every couple of seconds drives me mad.
Ive never had any problem with it as long as you dont lean in front of it all the time lol.

As the title says my GFs 10.1 will go full brightness at random times. Only way to change it back is to go into setting. The slider is all the way down but have to slide it to full then back down. Any ideas guys?
The fix is: Go TO SETTINGS, SCREEN, AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER, UNCHECK. Thanks bd85!

I have had this issue as well when using auto brightness function. Only when viewing photo albums. Very annoying. I no longer use the auto brightness function now. Little issues like this drive me crazy. Add this to the keyboard lag and other small issues and i start to question the purchase.
Thankfully i found this site to help me realize its not just me...misery loves company. Lol.
Have you guys tried to shut off the option in setting that's can analyze the screen color and more and the adjust the screen for power savings.
I have noticed what you are mention. And it only appears in movie's because the picture change often so the tab tried to compensate the colors often.
Go TO SETTINGS, SCREEN, AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER, UNCHECK.
And I am not talking about the auto brightness that you can access from clicking on the lower right part of your screen

That seemed to be it. Didn't think to check that since the Xoom doesn't have that setting. One thing i wish the xoom had was the whole different wallpaper for lock screen thing the 10.1 has.
I use wolf rom v3.8 and auto brightness function don't work. I checked other roms and it was the same. How can I turn it on?
u cant turn it on i think u need to try with power widget ..that has the auto brightness option ..works for me though, should for u too !!
Thank me if it worked !!
I used a lot of different power widgets and they show auto brightness icon, but nothing changes. Android Assistant widget has list of sensors available in phone and under Light Sensor I have: not support? wtf?
with power widget

Lesmian, why don't you try ewjet rom? So far is the best rom out there.. smoother and faster and works flawlessly, including auto brightness feature.
Is auto brightness not working at all or you just cant find the option for it? Mine works fine but no option to enable or disable.

autobrightness always was VERY subtle on my x10i, it even works "better" on my ZTE Blade, so you may just not see it, the only time i really noticed it was when i was reading on the train and drove through a tunnel.

Hmm. Maybe its true that just not see it. But I did a couple of tests. I lower my brightness and then I put phone under lamp. Nothing changes. Then I increased brightness and cover sensor with my finger, still nothing changes. ;/
Did you read the FAQ section? LOL

If you mean wolf rom FAQ section I read it. And it says that auto brightness works with power control widget. I used it and it doesn't work with my phone. Btw I don't know why you LOL? I did something wrong?
Auto Brightness
I may be able to add some insight into our auto brightness problem. I know it was disabled in 2.1 apparently. First question does anyone know if it was enabled in 2.3.3?
I am currently running a generic X10i with Virgin WB 4.0.4 ROM and DooM Kernel v04b. I use Juice Ultimate Beta v3.6.6. There is a brightness control in JD and I have noticed that on my phone it says brightness sensor unavailable.
The other thought I have is that maybe it is available in x10a's and not x10i's. This may explain the wide variations in people who have it working and people who don't. I have also tried the second step (e.g. larger cirle icon) of the brightness widget in WB's rom which is mentioned in the ROM thread that didn't enable auto brightness. My phone came with 2.1 installed and I have never had auto brightness. This may also be another reason.
I might try and flash 1.6 if I can find it and see what happens. Can anyone think of a reason why I shouldn't try this. I assume I would need to flash a 1.6 basband first.
Any more thoughts would be appreciated.
hey guys ! i have a raph800 installed new froyo 7.1 and no data like it did with version 6 but it used to work on version 5.i tried deleting the data.img and let it create a new one and only thing it did is giving me the triangle roaming icon witch was the first time i saw it!
