Auto brightness for the latest miui 1.7.8 isnt working properly. in broad daylight, i find that i have to manually set the brightness to see the screen visibly. is this a known issue for anyone else?
I heard that the latest kernels fixed deep sleep issue but broke auto brightness. Obviously we know which one is priority. I'm sure the great devs will fix it soon.

I've been looking for an app that is supposed to keep the screen brightness at a certain level no matter what app is running that could change the brightness. I have googled and googled and all I can find are auto brightness apps. The app I am thinking that I say my have been a script that runs in the background. My wifes eris keeps shooting the brightness to max all the time. Thanks!
You do know that the brightness slider can be set to a certain llevel.

Umm yes I do. My wife has an Eris rooted running exactly the same rom as mine and no matter what you set the brightness slider to, 5 minutes later, wake the phone up and poof brightness is at max. So my question again is that if anyone knows the app or script in question, your help would be greatly appreciated.
I second this, my phone does the same thing

Have you tried a different ROM? I had two Eris before my D2 and never had that issue.

Dude, I'm sure your D2 rocks and whatnot, but seriously I would like a reply that is constructive.

Not so sure about that. Mine did it once or twice when still running the OTA 2.1... made me change the screen brightness from Auto to about 30~40%. Since running xtrSENSE 4.6.5 I haven't seen any problems with the screen brightness resetting to max. There are times when the auto brightness seems befuddled and selects a strangely dark setting, but it quickly settles down and works fine.
My money is on an ill-behaved app. What diff apps do you and your wife run?

The apps that she has that I don't are:
Bubbles
Connect4
eBay
FxCamera
Shazam
Sketcher
Maybe the camera app? I'll uninstall it and see.
I'm thinking the camera app. In the xtrSENSE thread, somebody mentioned a problem with a camera, so it's the likely culprit. Good luck.

Once again did you flash a new rom. I ran nonsensikal and kaosfroyo for over a year and a half. Not once did they act up. So either reflash your xtrasense or something else. So either you have a bug in one of your apps as others have stated or something is wrong with the ROM.
What I did was used an app called abrightness and went into settings and unchecked automatic adjust for brightness.

The culprit ended up being the FxCamera app. Uninstalled it and no brightness issues. Oh, and "whining" and asking a valid question in the QUESTIONS forum are two completely different things. Thanks to anyone who actually offered constructive comments.

Go to settings. Display. Toggle Auto-brightness on or off.
I get that part I meant the settings that has something to do with with the auto brightness sensor. It just seems a bit dim in the same light vs. a sense ROM

I believe this is something with MIUI. It's been like that on this phone with every revision I've ran. Either set your Brightness to a desired level or deal with the low auto for now until/if they can fix that.

I can't help you on that specific issue, but I may be able to offer a work around. I've had trouble with the light levels on my SGS3 and using Lux has completely resolved it. Not only does it have pretty good automatic settings, but it allows you to assign specific light levels based on the ambient lighting level.
There's an app called display brightness that also gives you that option with a slider you could put anywhere you want
Thanks I will try each and see which I like.

Try downloading a settings app like quicker https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bwx.bequick2
And see if it lets you adjust brightness

c'mon you can do it better. if that can help, the inbuilt brightness settings could also have done the job.
i need expert solution.
n e ways thanks for the reply and thanks for your time.
I'm running flyhalfs latest cm build and I'm getting screen flicker like crazy. I'm running crpalmers latest kernel and I have tried the stock kernel and it does the same thing. It won't do it for a few hours and then I'll turn my screen on and it will be flickering all around the edges . doesn't matter what brightness. Wondering of anyone has any ideas or if it's just a bug for now. Thanks.

Other people have been reporting the same thing. I think I read someone saying disabling hw overlays in developer options helped. For some reason I'm not having this problem on carbon... Running crpalmers latest
Sent from my DNA using Tapatalk 2
Yea I found that and tried it out didn't seem to make a difference. It's so weird it sometimes it won't flicker at all and then I'll pull my phone out of my pocket and it will be flickering big time for a couple hours and then be gone again.

add script on your build.prop (need root access) ;
hwui.render_dirty_regions=false
if that appeared, then change to :
debug.hwui.render_dirty_regions=false
No need to do that. This thread is from June and crpalmer has worked out the screen a flickering bug about a month or two ago.
And, for the record, the fix is in the current CM 10.2 and 11.0 but not 10.1. If someone is on 10.1, please update!
