Ok i wanted to start new thread with this issue
got a question about the screen. Some times I can sense and see that despite of auto brightness off that the screen adjusts its brightness by itself. It is a little change but my sharp eyes can see this... Do you have a similar thing?
I can easly notice this when playing my country game. When I click on the building menu the screen gets brighter. When i cancel the menu the screen makes darker
Also in sprinkle when I use water the screen gets little brighter
I think this is because the Tegra 3 (or ASUS's implementation of it) adjusts contrast to conserve power. The changes in contrast make brightness seem to change.
I think their settings are too aggressive and they should either scale them back or add an option to turn it off, if possible. I'm sure it's nice for battery life but it does (in some very specific instances) seem to impact the experience.
Note: this is not a doom-and-gloom post. The Prime's screen performance is the best I've ever experienced on a mobile device, maybe any device, overall. So this is a bit of a nuisance but nowhere near enough for me to have an inkling of regret about buying the Prime.
This only happens on mine while in power saving mode.

I'm not sure, I'll have to do some more testing. I seem to remember it happening across the board.
I'll note that Battery mode really does make a HUGE difference in the screen's performance. Colors become very washed out, so much so that I'm really surprised by the impact.
Well in my case this thing occurs on every mode with the same strenght... That sucks
so anyone of you can confirm if this is normal? Do you have the same isue on your primes?
It seems the light sensor has high resolution and Asus needs to smooth up a bit the auto-brightness algorithms If your screen goes up and down then simply disable auto-brightness or change lightning conditions

Like i said auto brightness is off. Can anyone install my country and check his out for me? Just enter build menu and chec if the screen gets a little brighter
it has nothing to do with auto-brightness... Its a feature of tegra 3, it can change the brightness of each pixel to give you the best image and use the least amount of power.. unfortunately its just annoying and not implemented well.
And you cannot turn it off.
Ya I noticed this too last night and thought that I had a defective screen. Made a thread about it earlier. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421002

In a completely dark room, auto-brightness will sometimes randomly bump up the brightness level of the screen to, say, 25% (way too bright). In a dimly lit room, it generally stays pinned to minimum unless i move it up manually before turning auto-brightness on (way too dark).
Changes take a long time and are inconsistent. Anyone else experience this?
Never been a fan of auto-brightness. It depends on the light sensor in the device, but I turn this off on most android devices as it just ends up soaking up power anyway.

I have noticed that as well. Specifically the in a almost completely dark room its not set at minimum brightness, and when in a dimly lit room it will be at minimum brightness.
Oddly enough when in the completely dark room if I turn off auto brightness then put it back on it will usually go down to minimum brightness. This lasts for awhile then it seems to bump back up.
mine does this also..
I do recall nearly every reviewer of the Prime saying that the auto-brightness was pretty wonky.
But with that being said, auto brightness seems rather unnecessary on pretty much any Android device. Even Froyo had native brightness widgets.

Ditto here, you will find auto turned off on all my devices. Never seems to work for me correctly.
Same here on my 64gb model on .33 version. Also posted here ...

Can heavily be noticed in mobilephonetalk forums while scrolling the page with auto bright turned off. Even on max or min brightness....
It sucks. Plain & Simple
I do wonder why they have such a hard time making Auto Brightness / Sensors that work correctly. Or at least consistantly. I used to play with it, setting the brightness level, then going to auto on several HTC devices, and while it was a LOT better than the Primes setup, it wasn't consistent which always caused me to give up on it. Seems a waste to even put the sensor in there when no one seems to be able to control it properly.
Maybe it IS an Android thing, for I remember no such issue with Windows Mobile devices. Hmm. Hold out any hope of ICS? Perhaps it will address it, but for now, I am still skeptical that ICS is the Holy Grail everyone claims it to be. It would have to address a LOT to be anywhere near that perfect. Who knows. Maybe it IS that good, in which case, My Prime is really gonna shine!
I don't like it on my HTC Sensation either. Too much dimmed when outside and in bright rooms.
Does anyone have a device with ICS that can confirm if auto brightness still acts the same? Every Android device I have had has the same issue. I have just learned to deal with it although I do not like it.

Yep HTC sensation is the same..
I find it very good on my Sensation, suits me well. But in the Prime its well too low.
Sent throught the wormhole from my CoinInserted Sensation OG.
it's ok. not perfect
I also never use auto backlight, but on the TFP it seems ok.
It's not perfect but it almost always reacts pretty fast to changes in light.
When I'm in a dark room it always goes to the lowest setting.
Sometimes it seems to 'forget' to work and then I need to turn the auto setting off and then back on again and that seems to remind it to go back to work.
Hello,
theres a bug in automatic brightness: if you turn it on and hold it against the sun the brightness will go to maximum but it won't get back (darker).

Ok in all seriousness I have not had this issue....did you try rebooting your prime? I have noticed some hicups from time to time, like touch tones stop working....but if I reboot it will work again. I am sure its just the newness of ICS, these things will get ironed out in time.
I leave it off anyways. Its a known automatic brightness is a battery drainer. You'll get better battery life with it off.

I think this is more of a feature than a bug, although I keep mine at one certain level anyway.
It's to give you a more seamless experience, as soon as the screen goes off and back on it adjusts. It's so when you're reading an article and move from one area to another, you don't get a surprise mid-sentence. I always hated reading things off my phone with auto brightness on, couldn't just focus on the words had to keep tripping up on a constantly changing screen.
With sun i meant that you can hold it against a bright light
Sry for my bad english...
I've actually noticed some differences in the sensitivity of the light sensor on various units. Some do seem to get "stuck," where others maintain an accurate measurement of ambient light. This seems to be correlated to newer units (e.g., C1 units).
The one I'm using right now does switch lighting both more quickly and, it would seem, more accurately. The ones I had previously would get stuck either on high or low brightness (with very little adjustment in between), and I needed to toggle the auto brightness button to get them to adjust to new conditions.
I found auto brightness on the device to be an annoying burden if anything. I just keep it pretty low all the time. Better that way anyways.
Same problem here - The brightness goes up under bright light, and won't readjust until the next screen off/on or reboot.
Does anyone have a Prime that adjusts back down without turning the screen off?
I swear it's intentional and not a bug, although they should offer you the option of controlling its parameters. Just have to wait for the unlocker and some custom ROMage.
But seriously, I think it's to keep a continuity in your current session, so that if you're gaming or working (the two things this tablet's for) you're not plagued by an ever-changing screen that distracts you...

I can see how the concept of continuity can be good. But in my case for example, switching the bedroom light on - followed by a certain increase of brightness on ATP - then switch the bedroom light off to go to bed - the persistent brightness (tested for >15mins) can be a little straining on the eyes. Although readjusting the brightness is as simple as 'clicking' the 'auto' icon on/off again so that the brightness comes down to appropriate level (it only takes 2seconds to do it) - I think this is defeating the purpose of having the auto-brightness setting in the first place.

Oh I whole-heartedly agree. Going from my living room anywhere else in the house causes blindness with auto brightness on. And it acts completely opposite on this device than all others I've touched that use the feature. And like you say, if it's "automatic brightness" then why would it not be totally automated?
I'm just saying there's definite reasoning and programming behind it, it's not just some bug per se.
Therefore, don't expect ASUS to do anything about it, it'll all be up to our wonderful dev's here; they'll say it's properly functioning even though it's bass ackwards from everything else in existence.
Quick question to all the people smarter than me, I use flux on my computer and really like it. I was wondering if there was a way to get the Linux build that they have to work on android. I, personally, wouldn't know how to go about doing this, so I am leaving this question here for anyone who feels they can accomplish this task.

I have been waiting for an android version for the tab/transformer prime since i started using it on my windows PC in november.
It seems they are working on it.
When is the Android verson coming out?
We have a version internally (it looks beautiful!) but it requires a very complicated installation process. We are working to simplify this and ship f.lux to the Android OS as soon as possible.
http://stereopsis.com/flux/faq.html
JuiceDefender Ultimate (with JuiceDefender beta) has the same kind of effect, but unfortunately it requires use of the Defender's own auto brightness level adjuster which isn't quite that polished function yet - at least not on my Desire Z, that is.
I checked into this, and it is an auto brightness control. It really doesn't change the display "temperature" of the screen. Thanks anyway, useful to know.
So I found this. It seems to be the best substitute for an android f.lux. I did buy the paid version because it was only $1.55. There is a free version, but the guy offers a money back guarantee if you don't like it. So far I have no complaints.
Please note: I am using it on my Nook Color, as such I don't know how efficient the automatic adjustment is as I have no light sensor nor camera.

It isn't an automatic brightness control. It tints your screen according to the time of the day making it easier on your eyes. I know it works because I use it on my laptop and ipad.

Similar to f.lux - unfortunately it doesn't work on ICS - I loved it on GB
Lux Auto Brightness does exactly what f.lux does, and then some.
Color Temperature and Automatic Brightness to Sub-Zero levels using the phone's Light Sensor!
I've dreamed so many nights about this kind of app!
p.s. I'm talking about the PAID VERSION.
The free version doesn't have Night Mode and many other features.

Free mode has Sub-Zero.
And I have to disagree, f.lux is much more functional. It actually tints your screen to a suitable temperature depending on the time of day while Lux is simply an auto-brightness app. Big difference.

f.lux is windows software, doesn't work on android so don't say it's more functional please, because it just doesn't function at all.
I never said free version didn't have SubZero brightness, I said it didn't have NIGHT MODE.
f.lux doens't tint depending on the time of the day, it toggles between two tints when it reaches a certain time of the day, there's no in-between changes being made, Big Difference.
And Lux Dash can do that, are you judging by the free version again?
It can easily change between three tint modes, normal, night mode, and astronomer mode, just not automatically but two taps away.
And AUTO BRIGHTNESS to sub zero levels, that's the "then some" I said, wich I find really useful at bed time use.
Please show me a better solution on android.
Actually f.lux was made for/and on Linux before it was ported to mac and windows. And also, f.lux doesn't just have '2' settings. It changes the temperature of your display based on a gradient-scale. Thus enabling it to be easier on our eyes, without us noticing. Don't get me wrong, I am using the PAID version of Lux right now, and it is great, however, the moment stereoptics puts out an android version of f.lux I will drop Lux so fast it might have re-entry burns.

"This changes too fast, it always shocks me.
The f.lux transition can be CPU intensive, so f.lux tries to be polite about it. To make it slow, you can use the special 1-hour slow transition option under settings instead."
"I installed f.lux but I can't see any change.
Is it past your local sunset time? Just wait, and f.lux will kick in at sunset."
As I said, it toggles between two modes when it reaches a certain time of the day, the only thing you can do about it is choose if you want the transition to last one hour or some seconds.
This is definitely not various gradient levels based on the time of the day.
It will be all-out night mode during the night, and all-out day mode during the day.
Only the transition period can be set to a gradient, but that period can be set to 1hour at max.
eg. 10h will be the same as 13h, 15h, 17h, and then somwhere between 17h and 18h it will change to night mode, and then 18h, 19h, 20h, 00h, 02h, 04h etc all will have the same color temperature. There will be no difference between 08h and 15h color temperatures for example.
I use f.lux since I had a CRT monitor, and I'm using it right now, so I know what I'm talking about.

By the way, I see you have a i777, I have a n7000 wich is samoled screen as well.
Lux night mode changes the blacks in a way I don't like at all, they cease to be true blacks and get the tint apllied on them too.
Do you experience that?
I've read somewhere that it's a limitation on apllying color tints on led screens... So to be honest, I don't even use Lux night mode, all I did was change the auto-brightness to let it reach -50% brightness when using the phone on pitch black rooms, and I love the app for that feature alone!
Do you think f.lux will find a way around this led limitation? Apllying the filter on bright and colorful content, but leaving the blacks alone?

All Lux does is throw a filter on top of what you're seeing. It in no way changes the way your phone renders things. f.lux is supposed to change that, but the problem is right now there isn't a way for it to work without a "complex installation procedure" (taken from f.lux FAQ), so I'm guessing yes, it will get around that limitation. It has nothing with the limitations of our screen.
Man has anyone heard more? Dying without f.lux I have tried lux but it simply doesn't work well for me even with pro version.
No, stereopsis still hasn't released an Android version. Lux is still the best bet, but like everyone else has said, it still isn't the same.
Not only do I have light bleed but I'm also seeing screen flicker. I really want to keep this device but I'm getting sick of this...
The first thing I noticed when I turned on the device was the light bleed. Its pretty bad, and I normally don't mind those types of things. No flicker here though.
Sent from my Nexus 9 using Tapatalk
I noticed if I turn up the brightness it goes away.
I don't have light bleed, but I do see flicker if the screen brightness is turned down. It's reminiscent of the original Nexus 7, which had the exact same problem.
I have the flickering too...really annoying. I was hoping that this would replace my iPad but it's not looking good. Although lollipop is pretty amazing so far.
Does it only happen you adjust the brightness? If so, i dont think its a big deal as long as it doesnt happen during actual usage.
I noticed the flicker issue when I first was using it. I then turned off auto brightness from the main settings and started using Lux Auto Brightness and the issue has been resolved as far as I can see. I suspect this is an issue with the Lollipop build's brightness manager and not a hardware issue from the backlight. Also as far as bleed goes, there is apparent bleed when viewing the screen at an angle and looking directly at the edge, however I have found that it is a complete non issue in normal use (even in a fully dark room), which stands in stark contrast to my Nexus 10 which has noticeable edge bleed when viewed straight on.
No Flicking here
No flickering here either.
No flickering, but the auto brightness is very weird! It goes from extremely bright to extremely dark without me actually moving, same light conditions?
No flicker here!
Well, I guess we can all admit screen flicker is of the norm of Tegra.
Im seeing flikkering too.....
Only when brightness is low.
Remind me why Google/htc did not decide to use a 64 bit Qualcomm processor instead? :-\
Do you think that this issue can be solved via software update, or is this issue hardware related, and therefore cannot be fixed easily

considering that not everyone has it
So i say no
This issue seems to be related to auto brightness/adaptive brightness: The same brightness level set manually doesn't flicker.
Seems to be a software issue to me, and it seems highly likely every Nexus 9 flickers with auto brightness on (and at low relative brightness setting) in low light environments.

I guess we aren't experiencing the same issue, then: My screen only flickers with adaptive brightness enabled in low light conditions, seems like it is constantly readjusting the screen between two brightness values.
My Nexus 9 doesn't flicker at any constant brightness setting.
Yep, my Nexus 9 flickers as well.
About 15-20% brightness (fixed). It doesn't flicker all the time and it goes away if you change the brightness level or even by itself if you change the app you are using.
This leads me to believe this might be a software issue (N7/2013 had this too when it came out).
Its just too damn bright !! Mine seems to get stuck at higher levels and doesnt automatically dim, unless the change is quite dramatic (like dark room). I have to manually tick auto brighness off then on to make it work again.
I have tried using lux and it seems to be working perfectly so i am guessing its a software issue from LG side.
Anyone else having similar issues ?
Yea, it's too bright
I completely agree with you. Mine always seems to default to 61% which is too bright in normal light (45% is ideal for me). It would be nice if you could set the baseline "auto" brightness level and let the sensor adjust from there.

Well i have done some research and seems like an app called ''Content adaptive backlight'' is the cause of issue. Seems like LG have managed to produce the same issue that plagued G2. I really hope they fix it in future patches.

I have compared G5 MM rom to my G3 and there seems to be no Content adaptive brightness app on my G3 and because of that there is no auto brightness issue on my G3.
I have done more research and there are quite a few latest phone (6p, S7 ) affected by this issue where either brightness is either too low or high.
Only solution is to either get a custom rom or get an update from carrier/manufacture.
I noticed this as well.. I am sure it will eventually get corrected via software.
Chiming in to say same issue here. Doesn't really bother me tho.
Same boat its too bright or dark and when battery saver kicks in you cant see the screen at all.
Agreed. Too bright, except in very low lighting - then too dim. Hopefully software update will fix this up.
also agree! Way to dim in dark room, haven't noticed to bright yet but then I am old and need the extra ummpphhh to see!!! lol
It would be nice if LG could add low and high limits to the auto-brightness.. I think that would fix the problem.
Does everyone use auto-brightness? Does it seem to help with battery life?
So the issue occurs since April and hasn't been fixed yet. I just received my G5 and have the same issue. It annoys me a lot and when I see that LG didn't fix it yet, I am wondering whether they ever will do that.
I have noticed it getting stuck, unchecking it and checking it again sorts it out for a while
