Ok, so when it's really bright outside my lcd is not bright enough to see and when I'm in my bedroom with the light on, the lcd is way to dark to see as well. The Auto brightness isn't really working I don't.... I want it to go to full dark when there's very very low light and full bright when there's a lot of light. That doesn't sound to difficult, right?
THANKS

Hi , i found a bug on Nokia Lumia 800 BrightnessSetuo.
If you diseablle Automatic Brightness, and put it manual on medium or high, the three touch Buttons dont have light, only when Brigthnes is on Automatic or on Low (manaal) wrok.
I hope nokia fix these bug soon.

This is not a bug this is a fix given by nokia to increase battery performance.
I also thought it was a bug but checked the nokia forums and in the change log of the latest update it is mentioned that the bottol capacitive button keys only light up if you have ur brightness set to low or auto
My believe is that is is by design. If you're in a place dim enough to struggle to see the capacitive keys, you'll not be using med or high brightness as it will blind you.
Likewise, when you're outside and needing a higher brightness, the ambient light will easily be enough to see the capacitive keys.
I almost always have brightness on low so this change doesn't really affect me. Medium brightness hurts my eyes in darker environment. The only time I crank it up to medium is when I'm outside. Sometimes I'm even on low outside if it's not too light. I never think I will use the highest brightness setting.

blah blah blah....sorry, but you are not representative for 99% of all users. Nice for YOU that YOU prefer low brightness. But most of us users like at least medium brightness in darker areas because the AMOLED contrast and colours are bad and washed out when in low brightness mode. I want to decide myself if i have the button lights on/off with medium or bright display settings.
Finally this "update" is a reason for me not to buy the lumia 800...shame on nokia!

Neither are you.
Did I say you have to use what I use? No. I simply stated my personal preference. No need to jump all over me. Calm down.
Have you guys tried Auto brightness?
It goes all the way to minimum brightness if you use the phone in the dark.
The bottom buttons are lit up too.
I tried out the auto brightness for the first time today. Seems to work well. It places itself in between low/mid brightness in an ordinary lit room which is fine for me. And as you say the bottom buttons are always lit even if the brightness goes up to full strenght.
Think I'm gonna use auto brightness a bit more and see if it behaves good at all times.
Hi Guys!
I wanted to know if the screen, if set to its maximum brightness can be used as a sort of flashlight in a dark room? The reason is that, while I might not miss the led light for the camera, I do find having an LED as a flashlight EXTREMELY useful. Specifically, how far is the reach of the brightness of the screen (i.e. in meters or in feet)?
I'm going to buy a new phone and am deciding between the Z ultra and the Z1.
Thanks and kudos!
It's fairly bright if you disable "adapt to lighting conditions" and open a blank page in Chrome. I used to use my old iPhone's (first gen.) screen as a flashlight (it didn't have a flash), and it worked very well

Yeah it will work fine. Comparable to other smartphones. (larger screen, more lighting produced)
It will however depend on your night vision. So if you've been asleep for say 20-30 mins, (the time it takes for your vision to adjust to night) then using the screen will look very bright. But going from a well light environment and then using the screen in a dark room, wont really help much. That's just night vision for ya!
to compare with my one x its not as bright and for me no I can't use it as a flashlight.
I always have to use maximum brightness when going outdoor

Had my s6e a week now and right from the start I've noticed an issue with the screen colours on full brightness.
When in bright light something happens that makes all the colours look washed out and slightly pink. I've never noticed this on my previous galaxy devices and it's really dissapointing
It seems to be related to the auto brightness glitch as it does this whether auto brightness is switched on or not. When in bright sunlight it switches into a mode where all the colours look faded and horrible. When I cover the front camera area or turn the brightness down it switches back to normal.
I've tried changing from adaptive to cinema mode etc and it seems to make no difference.
Has anyone else noticed the change in colours or have I just got a dud?
Sounds like the extreme brightness mode Samsung implemented on the Note 4. If so, that's how it's supposed to look in direct sunlight to make it easier to see.

Could be, looks awful tho :/
It does. I think the idea was to optimize contrast to make the screen visible at the expense of accuracy and saturation.
I'm having the same problem with my S7 Edge. Had it a week and then the colors just started to wash out on everything. All themes, all screens. Nothing fixes it. I hold it next to my S6 Edge with the same theme and the difference in colors is drastic. It looks terrible.
Hey, just bought the G5, and amazing phone so far, everething works perfectly, but one thing that concerns me is the screen isn't bright as other phones. I am coming from the G2 and clearly the screen is superior by far but the brightness is just not as the G2's. I know the G5 has some trick that makes it go extra bright in sunlight in auto brightness mode but under regiular light is just dim. I am sure its a software issues as I checket the screen with a flashlight lighting directly to the light sensor and it goes extra bright. Anyone else has this issue?
You don't want to give your significant other yet another reason to yell at you while you're reading XDA in bed. Rate this thread to express what you think of the LG G6's display minimum dimness. A higher rating indicates that the display can get extremely dim, ideal for reading in very dark environments.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
It could be a tad darker, but if you use the "Comfort view" setting in notification menu, you can turn down blue light which works just as well. This setting is highly customizable.
To me, this is the weak point of the screen. It will get acceptably dim, though, if you activate both battery saver and comfort view, but who wants to go through those steps each time you want to read at night? I've just been using one of the night shift apps to dim the screen during night hours.
Anyone notice the auto brightness toggle not sticking? AT&T model.

Thanks for the tip, this combo does make the screen acceptably dark enough.
Has anyone had any luck with automating lg's settings? I have not been successful with Tasker and would really like to schedule this based on time and ambient light sensor.

I personally didn't think the yellow tint that Comfort View offers helped me. Instead, I used System UI tuner (This app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zacharee1.systemuituner&hl=en) to enable the stock android night mode. If you want to try it, it essentially works the same but the tint is more red-ish and is more tolerable in my opinion. However, the intensity of the tint can't be adjusted.
Anyways, I do agree with you that the display should get a bit darker.
Coming from a GS4, the minimum brightness is amazing, especially if you use it combined with the battery saver option, it never seemed too bright, whilst on my S4, i often used the screen filter app to lower minimum brightness
