When you read any book or pdf documents the screen goes dim as per the screen dim setting. Is there any setting or any app that can keep the screen bright throughout as it happens in IPAD?
Thanks
In the settings, I adjusted the timeout until when the screen goes off. Maybe I was just more conscious of it, or imagining a difference, but it seemed to keep the screen from going dim as soon. I'm not sure of a dedicated setting for it though.
Any way to disable the screen dim that occurs a few seconds before the screen off occurs?
The screen dims even when it is plugged into the charger. Gets annoying when I have it mounted as an MP3 player in the car for example, or even if I'm just using it in bright light.
The maximum screen dim level setting is too dark to see.
Go into Settings > Display and set Sleep to 10 or 30 min

I still want it to sleep after about a minute, I just don't want it to dim first.
Even on charge, it dims after about 50 seconds then doesn't shut off if I have "stay awake" selected.
I have cm-11-20150817-NIGHTLY-i9300 version of CM. The delay for turning off the display on lock screen equals to the delay of turning off the screen in normal mode. Usually display in lock screen switch off after 10 seconds. Can I somehow adjust the time of switching off in lock screen?
Just got the V10 and the second screen dims after 2 or 3 seconds after turning off the main screen. Is there a way to adjust the timing when the second screen dims? The dimmed second screen is almost unreadable because it is so dim.
Ditto, the idea that this is a replacement for a notification LED is really damaged by the dimming. (It's not just me that bought the phone based on that idea, right?) What I've found so far:
With the screen brightness set to 0, the second screen dims fully a few seconds after sleeping. Icons become about as noticeable as dust reflections.
With the screen brightness set to 100, the second screen follows the ambient light sensor after sleeping. Under bright light it turns itself up to the point where it's useable.
I've been playing with all the LEDs that Light Flow sees, but at least without root, nothing has any effect. I might look through the /sys files later. We probably need to get root first to figure this out.
On auto brightness it seems to be that the device adjusts the dimmed display for the ambient lighting? It's not the easiest thing in the world to see, but it's certainly not hard for me to see what notifications I have. I really prefer this over a colored LED.
Light Flow settings
For what it's worth, here's my current setup, now that the T-Mobile H901 is rooted. This does no one without root any good, and I don't know how it would translate to similar LED managers. I've been using Light Flow since the Sapphire (MyTouch 3G).
Light Flow device settings: check direct mode, root mode, and run every command as root. The Nexus 5 force reset option is checked by default and I don't know if that's relevant (no calls yet). Everything else in the menu is unchecked.
Let Light Flow control lcd-backlight-ex.
In a notification, set that "LED" to Solid and to 255 brightness. Check Enable Mixer and App controlled flash. With that last setting, the app will reset the brightness every few seconds even if the system dimmed it due to an ambient light change.
Now I need to edit some notification icons to be big and colorful. I wonder how this will impact battery life? Now the app is going to be awake all the time.
I've noticed that today on auto brightness the second screen will increase in light but not much. It also is not as smoth of a transition as on main display. It kinda jumps up real quick..
Yes for me I've noticed on Auto brightness the second screen will dim in a dark room and if you turn off your phone while in that room then come out... The second screen is still dim.... It's like th second screen doesn't respond to the light sensors at all unless the main screen is on.

It would have been nice if lg included the capability to change the second screen settings such a brightness or text color.

Another one of many things that it would be cool to see baked into a custom stock rom. Good stuff. I wonder if Cloudyfa might come over and cook on this awhile. I have always loved his stock Roms....

Color would be cool. A classic CRT bright/lime green, for instance, would probably show up much better than the white.
We need to get on their forums with these ideas. Maybe some will get squeezed into an update
An app which turns off auto dim in case screen is off would be pretty much help. Maybe I'll develop one.
As title says. Suddenly my phone started to turn to green/matte/muted without contrast and very faint colours. Takes a while, like 4 or 5 minutes, but it goes back to normal while doing some kind of vsync (you can see how it forces the grey scale back to normal as some kind of vsync error). Some icons with pure black background appear with the proper contrast and colours (!!!) and If I switch auto brightness to off doesn't happen [UPDATE: now it's permanent] - No root, updated to last 2022 march patch.
Any solutions?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: after 12 hours of partial use I've identified the green tint behaviour, it happens when the light sensor tries to adapt the screen brightness. If low = perfect colours, if high = perfect colours. All the in between = green tint.
